Thank you, Mr. Chair. I think this is the point that the previous speaker was alluding to, is that we have communities where we will see the callouts be significantly lower than the patrols. If we are to use a community like Detah as an example, it is about a 1:4 difference, it seems like, the callouts versus the patrols, and the patrols are significantly higher than the callouts.
Then, when you look at a community like that of Wrigley, that is supposed to have what is called part-time detachment coverage, you will see calls for service are significantly higher than that of the patrols. There just seems to be this inconsistent approach that the RCMP takes in whether they respond to something reactively or whether they are doing patrols for crime prevention. Would this be mostly because of a community's policing plan? I can't foresee any community not asking for regular types of patrols.
How one community got two patrols in an entire year is difficult to understand, yet they have a number of callouts. That means there is something going on in terms of the crime activity, but they don't seem to be getting the preventative measure type of patrols. Is there some comment maybe that the department could provide us with how that works, or is that because of community policing plans that have said they don't prefer patrols or what have you? Thank you, Mr. Chair.
