Summary

This paper deals with the evolution of Aboriginal policing in Canada, especially developments in Ontario. It begins with a chronology of major events over the past 40 years. An overview chapter then discusses the evolution of Aboriginal policing among the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) and the self-administered First Nations police services (SAs). Subsequent sections focus on the various types of SAs, describing the issues associate with each type, and providing at least two case studies.
