Ontario Provincial Police

The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is the provincial law enforcement agency responsible for maintaining public safety and enforcing laws across Ontario, outside of designated urban areas managed by municipal police. They provide various services including highway patrol, criminal investigations, emergency response, and community safety programs. The OPP works in partnership with local police forces and other agencies to ensure laws are followed, accidents are responded to, and communities remain safe. They play a crucial role in bridging law enforcement efforts across rural, provincial, and some urban areas in Ontario.
