National Police Week: Committed to Serve

Together

May 12, 2026 - City of Prince George, British Columbia

From: Prince George RCMP

Sunday, May 10, 2026 marked the beginning of National Police Week – a seven-day public awareness campaign that encourages increased awareness and understanding between police and the communities they serve.

This year, under the theme "Committed to Serve Together," we acknowledge the crucial partnership between members of a police service, between police services, between police and other first responders, as well as between the police and the organizations and people in the communities they serve. It is this collaboration that forms the cornerstone of effective crime prevention and public safety initiatives.

“Through education and public awareness campaigns, crime prevention initiatives, and responding to emergency service calls, we

strive to maintain and enhance public safety throughout Prince George. We know this goal is best accomplished by strengthening the partnerships we have with the people and organizations in our community and are committed to serve together,” says Cpl. Jennifer Cooper, Media Relations Officer for the Prince George RCMP.

This is an opportunity to strengthen the bond between police officers and their community. By fostering open dialogue, understanding, and mutual respect, we can build safer, more inclusive neighbourhoods where everyone feels valued and protected. By standing united, we demonstrate our unwavering commitment to serve and protect, ensuring a brighter, safer future for generations to come.

This week, and every week, Prince George RCMP Detachment is proud to affirm that it is #CommittedToServeTogether.

TAURUS (Apr. 21-May 20)

It may be difficult to see the best decisions to make, especially if you feel there are too many hidden aspects. The more you look into something, the more you may feel there is to know or the details might seem overwhelming. For this reason it might be best to let things float along for now rather than make rushed decisions.

LEO (July 23-August 22)

You could feel it is best to go along with what someone else wants, mainly because you can see they are determined to do things in a manner that suits them. It may not be that important right now or cause great difficulty but you will remember this for another time. It will enable you to be better prepared for any future surprises.

SCORPIO (Oct.23-Nov21)

By approaching a situation that requires some sort of structure in a different way you could please other people. This could involve home and family situations but no necessarily. It might mean that you have taken notice of the way somebody else has had success in a similar situation. It might take you a little time to adjust.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.18)

You will be afforded the opportunity to do things your way, which can be very pleasing, but at the same time you have to be prepared to deal with the details. This may not be as simple as you imagine. If you realise this quickly enough you will be able to get matters in place that will more than satisfy the circumstances.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20)

You could be feeling very differently about yourself now that Uranus has settled in your sign. Being determined about greater freedom of choice could be one aspect, especially when it comes to what you want to aim towards in the more long term future. The cost of such things might be the hurdle that you will need to deal with.

VIRGO (August 23-Sept.22)

Taking a different approach with something you need to deal with on a regular basis could make a big difference when it comes to the amount of work or responsibilities attached. You can be successful in bypassing any pressure coming from the expectations of others to handle matters in a particular way when it comes to the future.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov.22-Dec.21)

You can be quite determined that your ideas need to be accepted and there will be those who don’t see a problem with any suggestions you make. Somebody who wants control in some way may not be impressed. As long as you can show you have the details in place there is probably not much they can do about objecting.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

A social situation you might rather avoid, especially if family are involved, could work out much better than you anticipate. Conversation should flow quite easily and perhaps prove more interesting than usual. It may be difficult to know what others really think but that won’t matter too much under the circumstances. Just let it flow

CANCER

(June 21-July 22)

What someone else expects may not suit you at all, especially if they attempt to restrict you in some way. This can make you more determined about those things that are important to you. You can find ways around this by not showing any annoyance you may feel but rather working behind the scenes in some manner.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct.22)

You have the opportunity to do things your way when it comes to leisure, pleasure or any social activity. This could also include any future travel plans you want to make now. Obligations that need to be dealt with up to late June, which might include what others expect or need of you, have to be taken into account.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan.19)

Social activity involving other people won’t follow the normal pattern and you may need to be mindful about any added expense this might bring your way. Your desire will be towards something simple. You may need to be determined to keep things this way. The experience you have in the end could be rather mixed.

ARIES (March 21-April 20)

Any out of the ordinary contact with either friends or a group of people is likely to be enjoyable with much to discuss or talk about. You could spend more money than you plan. For some, you may reassess what needs to be a priority in life, especially if you feel that something needs to be scaled down for greater stability.
