Private citizens and businesses can register their closed-video surveillance cameras with the RCMP so that if a crime occurs in an area police already have contact information on who to ask permission from in securing video to assist in an investigation.
The program is voluntary. No one is ever obligated to provide actual footage. Review the FAQ and learn more about the program online at www.crimecapture.ca.
