RCMP Meteghan Detachment is responsible for providing policing services to residents of the Municipality of Clare. Comprised of several small communities, Clare has a rich history with many area families tracing their roots back to Nova Scotia's Acadian settlers. Both English and French are widely used throughout the area, so all Detachment members are fully bilingual. The Municipality is also home to the Université Sainte-Anne, Nova Scotia's only French language university.
Mandate
Consisting of six regular RCMP members and one detachment assistant, the Meteghan Detachment handles an average of 1,200 calls for service annually. These range from minor traffic violations to full scale criminal investigations. The Detachment relies on regional support services from Yarmouth to provide specialized assistance in areas such as forensic identification, major crime, and police dog services.
