And we know it’s not a reflection of their satisfaction with our organization,” he said in a statement to The TriCity News yesterday. Previously, councils had been told they had until May 31 to sign on the dotted line or decide to establish their own city police forces. But now, Bond isn’t saying what will happen to cities that wait for more answers (a ministry spokesperson said Tuesday that “something is in the works” but it wouldn’t be announced until after The News’ print deadline). “We have already extended the signing deadline from the end of April to the end of this month and, at this time, no decision has been made about a further extension,” Bond said in a statement to Black Press last week.
