Dec 1, 2020 | 12:50 PM

EDMONTON – Alberta RCMP says it has launched a new Instagram account (@RCMPAlbertaGRC ) to connect with Albertans in a new capacity.

Through branching out on another platform, Mounties say they want to reach more Albertans, connecting with the people they serve so in turn, they can connect with them.

“The Alberta RCMP is committed to providing all of the communities where we live and work with policing services that they expect and deserve,” reads a media release.

“We are proud to serve all of the communities in our jurisdictions, both rural and urban, and we are proud of the many employees who make our organization what it is today.”

“There’s so much happening day-to-day in the communities across Alberta that has such a positive impact on not only the citizens we serve, but our employees in all areas of our police service.“ said Deputy Commissioner Zablocki, Commanding Officer of the Alberta RCMP, “I’m happy to be able to share with Albertans what our employees are involved with, the passion they have to serve communities, and to learn about how all levels of the Alberta RCMP are working together with citizens to make their communities resilient, safe and secure.”

Alberta RCMP says followers can expect to see a continuation of campaigns such as #WhereWeWork, #CommunityMembers, and various stories about the locations that our employees call home.

They note that they will not be posting public safety messaging on Instagram due to the platform’s inability to easily share content.
