Halton safest municipality in Canada

Friday, October 22nd, 2010

Dear Chief Gary Crowell,

Through the leadership of the Halton Police Services, Halton has been recognized as one of the safest regional municipalities in Canada and the safest place to live in the GTA for the third year in a row. I applaud both the Police Services and the people of Halton for their dedication to improving public safety, as collaborative efforts are necessary to ensure our community has some of the lowest crime rates in our country.

There are many reasons I chose to raise my two sons in Halton, but like any parent, a safe community was a particular consideration in my family’s decision making process. As both a mother and the Member of Parliament for Halton, I am proud to live in a community that leads Canada’s safety record. I congratulate all individuals who have helped Halton hold this title for three years in a row.

- Lisa Raitt, Member of Parliament for Halton

The Halton Regional Police Service are warning residents to keep their doors and windows locked after several break-ins have occurred in the Oakville area.

Over the past several weeks, there has been a rash of night-time residential break-ins in the Trafalgar and Palermo communities, located in the Town of Oakville.

Purses, wallets, cell-phones, cash and computers have been stolen.

In an effort to identify and possibly apprehend the suspects, patrol officers have increased their presence throughout the targeted communities and are asking residents to help by making sure they activate home security systems, lock doors and windows and report any suspicious people or vehicles seen standing or parked on roads or in driveways during the night.

The Halton Regional Police Service is asking anyone with information to contact police immediately at 905-825-4747 or Crimestoppers.
