HUMAN RESOURCES & RECRUITMENT

A strong police service needs strong human resources, and recruiting often looks both inside and outside of Thunder Bay's borders. For our sworn compliment, recruitment looks to hire new officers into the cadet program and attract experienced officers who can make this city their new home.
