MANITOULIN ISLAND — Aundeck Omni Kaning and Sheshegwaning have installed cameras around their communities that are linked to the UCCM Anishnaabe Police.
“It was needed in the community because what we’re having on Manitoulin Island is a fluctuation of urban drug dealers,” says Aundeck Omni Kaning Chief Patsy Corbiere. “Most of the First Nations have these cameras in place. The cameras are strategically put up within the community at intersections so we know who is coming into the community. It helps us with any vandalism or theft because the cameras are on all our band buildings.”
