The Anti Fraud Centre Call Centre Unit has 11 full-time Call Takers who are able to field more than 300 calls each day from citizens reporting frauds. Of those calls, the Centre logs data from more than 25,000 victims each year. The Call Takers are dedicated, trained anti-fraud specialists who provide advice on the steps that victims should take to recover lost funds and to protect themselves in the future.

The CAFC has established itself as Canada's central fraud data repository. It has become a trusted source for fraud data and for educational and prevention resource materials. The CAFC plays a crucial role in educating the public about specific mass marketing fraud pitches and in collecting and disseminating victim evidence, statistics and documentation, all of which are made available to law enforcement agencies.

The Thunder Bay Crime Prevention Council provides advice to City Council on the development of an inclusive Safety and Crime Prevention Plan and contributes to its implementation.

Vision

Thunder Bay is a safe and welcoming city.

Mission

To engage the community in the task of preventing crime, increasing safety and security, and fostering the well-being of everyone in Thunder Bay.

NAPS provides police coverage and resources to a wide range of aboriginal communities in Canada. By working closely with the communities we protect, providing a community-oriented service and representing the First Nations we hope to improve quality of life as well as the strength of these communities.

The Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police works on behalf of police leaders in Ontario. The OACP has more than 1,200 members and represents the RCMP, the OPP, First Nations and Municipal Police Services.  The Association's members maintain a global perspective by going beyond provincial issues to address national and international concerns.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police is the Canadian national police service and an agency of the Ministry of Public Safety Canada.

The RCMP is unique in the world since it is a national, federal, provincial and municipal policing body. We provide a total federal policing service to all Canadians and policing services under contract to the three territories, eight provinces (except Ontario and Quebec), more than 190 municipalities, 184 Aboriginal communities and three international airports.
