Every year the Shelburne RCMP ask for three policing priorities from the Town of Shelburne, Town of Lockeport, and the Municipality of Shelburne. Priorities chosen in the past were things like visibility of Police in the community and combating hard drugs in the community. This year, from recommendation of the Shelburne RCMP we would like to ask the public for their input on the three RCMP policing priorities for the Town of Shelburne. Please contact a Town of Shelburne Council member with any priorities that you believe the Shelburne RCMP should add some additional focus on.

February is African Heritage Month

The 2023 African Heritage Month theme, Seas of Struggle – African Peoples from Shore to Shore, recognizes the resiliency, strength, and determination of people of African descent from the shores of Africa to the shores of Nova Scotia -- with the Atlantic Ocean being the everlasting connection.

The theme highlights the role the sea has played in the long-standing history of people of African descent in the development of Canada and Nova Scotia. This year’s theme aligns with the United Nations’ International Decade for People of African Descent (DPAD) 2015-2024. The goal is to strengthen global cooperation in support of people of African descent, increase awareness and recognize their full and equal participation in society.

Nova Scotia has more than 50 historic African Nova Scotian communities with a long, deep and complex history dating back more than 400 years. African Heritage Month provides another opportunity to celebrate and promote the culture, legacy, achievements and contributions of people of African descent in Nova Scotia – past and present.
