Remembering

Chief Doug Palson

"He lives on in our hearts"

Chief of Police Doug Palson proudly served to advance Indigenous-led, community-based policing. First, as Chief with the Dakota Ojibway Police Service for seven years and, as Chief with the Manitoba First Nations Police Service in November 2021.

Chief Palson's sudden passing in January 2025 has been deeply felt by his family, friends, colleagues, and all who had the priviledge of knowing him. His kindness and passionate leadership will never be forgotten.

Who We Are

MFNPS-Manitoba First Nations Police Service - Two officers standing with Police cruiser

The Manitoba First Nations Police Service is hard at work in First Nation Communities across the province. All of the First Nations communities we serve have their own unique cultures and traditions. For this reason, our MFNPS organization is built by us, and for us, to honour and respect our cultures, our understandings and our traditions.

The Manitoba First Nations Police Service engages at all levels to meet community needs, using approaches that combines support, education, enforcement, and crime prevention.

Our foremost goal is to provide caring and trusted community responsive policing to be the police service of choice for First Nations communities in Manitoba.

AS OF OCTOBER 2024, WE NOW POLICE 10 FIRST NATION COMMUNITIES!
