Nathalie Chambers Saanich Councillor

Saanich council has asked the provincial government for more money to support its police force and the Mobile Integrated Crisis Response Team in responding to calls dealing with mental-health. The letter, which went out by email Friday, requests “an increase of support for Saanich Police to better deal with the increase of mental-health calls for service, including providing additional funding to increase the capacity of the Integrated Mobile Crisis Response Team to operate in the CRD.”
