Opinion: NDP opted to not force Surrey to stick with the RCMP, but made one of those offers it\u0027s hard to refuse
Hence the provincial decision to impose seven “binding conditions” if Surrey sticks to its plan to return to the RCMP.
“The province is ready to sit down with the city of Surrey to provide financial support so we can finally close this chapter of confusion and uncertainty,” said Farnworth. “The people of Surrey are frustrated by years of back-and-forth, and they should not have to pay the price. Overall, the New Democrats were congratulating themselves on the sheer political craft of Friday’s announcement. They didn’t quite tell Surrey what to do but imposed such conditions as to make it very hard to go back to the RCMP.
The main body of the report covered almost 40 pages. More than 30 of those had redactions, some of them substantial, one almost total.
