RCMP to Deploy Black Hawk Helicopters and 60 Drones for Border Security Starting Friday in $1.3 Billion Plan
Jan 15, 2025, 03:41 PM
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) is set to deploy Black Hawk helicopters to enhance border monitoring, with operations expected to commence as early as Friday. This decision follows years of requests from frontline RCMP officers for aerial support. In addition to the helicopters, the federal government is implementing a broader $1.3 billion border security plan, which includes the deployment of 60 drones and new mobile surveillance towers. These measures are part of efforts to address security concerns amid ongoing pressures from the Trump administration.
