A provincial announcement on Tuesday, Sept. 1 provides more finances for police agencies and the best part is it’s not coming from our tax dollars. A press release states, “Criminals will pay for greater public safety.” Most money or assets linked to criminal activity is deposited into Manitoba’s Criminal Property Forfeiture Fund. Money from this fund is then annually allocated to police departments (or other initiatives) though a grant program. This year the fund awarded $276,000 to five departments; $12,000 was earmaked for Rivers.
