SYDNEY, N.S. — Changes may be coming as to which police service would be responsible for patrolling the Cape Breton Regional Municipality’s major highways.

These include Highway 125 from Grand Lake Road to the Trans-Canada Highway 105, and the 105 between the Marine Atlantic ferry terminal in North Sydney and the Victoria County border in Dalem Lake. “We now have to go back to the Department of Justice and say, ‘You are out of your minds,’” she said. “It is incredibly insulting right now. To go against that agreement, it’s bizarre to me.”

Magnus, however, emphasized that ending the MOU “did not mean an end to policing on 100-series highways in the CBRM.” Hayley Crichton, executive director of the Justice Department’s public safety and security division, said the department was not privy to that MOU between the Cape Breton Regional Police and the RCMP.
