Police/RCMP
The RCMP has served Richmond with pride for over 70 years. Policing has changed considerably since 1950 when our Detachment was first formed. As we continue to evolve, we will keep moving toward the goal of enhancing community safety through partnerships and innovation.
Richmond RCMP is currently led by Chief Superintendent Dave Chauhan. Learn more about Chief Superintendent Dave Chauhan.
Like the 224,425 residents we serve, our police officers are diverse in cultural backgrounds with over 30 different languages spoken. This variety in cultural backgrounds helps create valuable opportunities for our police officers to conduct public outreach and be more engaged with our diverse community, in addition to enhancing our operational policing abilities.
The Richmond Detachment is your RCMP and we will keep working for you, our community, to protect and promote safety in Richmond. Past, present and future in the midst of a changing landscape, we are committed to evolving with you and the needs of our community.
