Swearing in ceremony

This morning, Halifax Regional Police (HRP) swore-in 10 new police officers at a ceremony held at Halifax City Hall.

These recruits come to HRP as graduates of the Atlantic Police Academy on Prince Edward Island. The new officers will fill existing vacancies in HRP’s Patrol Division.

“As these officers begin their journey, we’re confident that they will serve our community to the best of their ability with the best approaches, ideas and considerations possible,” said Chief Jean-Michel Blais. “We welcome them to Halifax Regional Police, and by extension Halifax Regional Municipality, and wish all of them a long and productive policing career.”
