REGINA – Police services across Saskatchewan are planning a provincewide gun amnesty in the hope of improving public safety.
The Saskatchewan Association of Chiefs of Police is encouraging residents who have unwanted firearms to turn them into their local law enforcement agencies.
Moose Jaw police Chief Rick Bourassa says there were more than 1,000 cases of unlawful firearm use in Saskatchewan between 2012 and 2016.
Bourassa says the amnesty isn’t in response to any particular event.
