The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is one of North America's largest deployed police services with more than 5,800 uniformed officers, 2,400 civilian employees and 830 Auxiliary officers. We provide essential services that ensure the safety and security of the people of the Province of Ontario. The OPP is a division of the Ministry of the Solicitor General, the largest operational ministry in the province with a presence in every community across Ontario. We are the largest police service in Ontario and the second largest in Canada.

James Bay Detachments, with a total area of responsibility of approximately 250,000 square kilometers, is geographically the largest detachment within the OPP. The Detachment area is comprised of one administrative centre located in Kapuskasing and three satellite detachments located in Moosonee, Cochrane and Hearst; James Bay Detachment is the largest detachment within North East Region.

The Detachment serves a total population of approximately 30,000.

Located on the Moose River 12 miles south of James Bay, the town site is in the Hudson Bay Lowlands, the largest wetland area on earth. Moosonee serves as a gateway to the north and a launching point for further destinations; whether across the Moose River to Moose Factory, or further north up the western coast of James Bay to the neighboring First Nation communities. The population is approximately 3,500 with about 85% being Cree. The main language is English with Cree as a second language. There is also a small French language population.

The Town of Moosonee has unique characteristics such as its “no road access” and slogan, “We Touch the Edge of the Arctic”. The town grew in importance with the arrival of the rail in 1932 when Moosonee became a transportation hub for the James Bay coastal communities. Travellers arrive in Moosonee by train or plane.
