SCAN Program Will Get More Funding

Public Safety Minister Robery Trevors is expressing the government's support for the Safer Communities And Neighborhoods program, which many have feared was set for the chopping block.

Trevors announced more funding has been put behind the program, which allows citizens to anonymously report houses where crime is taking place and get tenants on the road to eviction.

The SCAN program had come under review earlier this summer after a tenant claimed she was evicted based on hearsay evidence but that was concluded to have been an isolated incident.
