Essex County OPP Marine Unit actively patrolling waterways this long weekend


The Essex County OPP Marine Unit will probably be out on the water selling marine security and implementing boating legal guidelines this Victoria Day lengthy weekend.


“The OPP encourages everybody to train warning when out on the waterways and a reminder that boating and alcohol don’t combine,” mentioned Essex County OPP media relations officer Const. Steven Duguay.


There have been no reported boating fatalities in Essex County in 2022.
