Wall, Goodale react to rural Saskatchewan wants for more RCMP
The death of Colten Boushie on a farm northeast of Biggar, Sask. has sparked debate over security in rural Saskatchewan.
This week, Ray Orb, president of the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities (SARM) said the organization would like a meeting with provincial and federal officials to discuss their needs.
“We know there are some budgetary restrictions,” he said. “But we need to ramp up the service out in those rural areas that are remote.”
Premier Brad Wall said if municipalities want more policing, they can pay for it.
