We must be on guard against the availability of drugs to our youth, we must watch and protect our neighbours and the young, We ask that you contact our detachment for information how you can help stop crime in your area. Large quantities of drugs enter our country by boat each year.
Drug smuggling is big business, often involving many people and a lot of money and equipment.
Fortunately, such large-scale operations can be readily detected by those familiar with normal marine activities. The RCMP's Coastal Watch Program , in the fight against drug importation, wants to enlist the eyes and ears of people in coastal communities. If you are a recreational or professional boater, fuel dock attendant, or vessel broker, or if you live or work near the water, you can play a vital role in the Coastal Watch Program. By reporting suspicious or illegal activities, you can help cut the flow of illicit drugs to our youth and to the rest of the community. This startling statistic has made the elimination of drug availability and education on the effects of drug abuse high priorities for law enforcement agencies.
