Western Region Commander Geoff McKechnie said the announcement is a win for Western Region and all of its communities.
"It's a really significant number of additional police that are being added to the region," he said.
"It will greatly increase the capacity of the police districts to meet the ever-increasing demands and will allow Commanders to deploy officers in all proactive roles aimed at preventing and disrupting criminal activity across the region."
