OPP Aboriginal Awareness Course


24 OPP officers from across northwestern Ontario are spending the week on the Washagamis Bay First Nation near Kenora.

The officers are taking part in the OPP's annual aborignal awareness course which is being held at the Health Center.

Inspector Dave Lucas from the Kenora Detachment says they will cover a number of topics over the next few days.

Lucas says the course is usually held in northeastern Ontario, but last year the course was held in Sioux Lookout, and this year is Kenora's turn to host.
