Frank,

First off I want to express my sincere gratitude for the money provided for the community event, Trunk or Treat located in Fort Frances. The event was seen my hundreds of children, parents, guardians, and community stakeholders. This event was crucial for fostering positive interactions with the police and the public. Positive interactions with the police lead to a sense of safety and cooperation when dealing with future situations whether it be a victim of crime, a witness, or accused. Public are more likely to trust police when they see police are engaged in the community and community events. I believe that the presence of the Ontario Provincial Police at this event was extremely appreciated by all, and will continue to help by building rapport and relationships with members and all community liaisons.
