Ontario passed the Safer Ontario Act, a comprehensive public safety legislation package that will modernize our approach to community safety. It will improve police oversight, transparency and accountability, enhance civilian governance, respond to the needs and realities of Ontario’s diverse communities and mandates local community safety and well-being planning.

​

The legislative package repeals and replaces Ontario’s Police Services Act from 1990, amends the Coroners Act and creates the Missing Persons Act and the Forensic Laboratories Act.
