RCMP Cpl. Rob Welsman said goodbye to the Barriere Detachment on Friday, Mar. 25, where he had been the NCO for just under five years.
“Today is my last day,” said the corporal, “And it’s been a very busy past couple of weeks.”
Welsman arrived in Barriere in July of 2017, when he took over as detachment commander of the local detachment. Since then the corporal has been fully involved in the community, not just in day to day policing, but on numerous other levels, working with area youth programs, assisting the community in creating a Block Watch, and officiating at numerous local events and celebrations.
Welsman is now transferring on to a posting in Alberta where he will be taking over as the detachment commander in Hanna, Alberta.
“It has been an honour and a privilege to serve the communities in this area, and I want to thank so many in the community that made me feel so welcome,” said Welsman on his last day at the Barriere detachment, “I have so many fond memories of the people and places here. Thank you.”
Constable Jeremy Galvin will be the acting detachment commander for Barriere until a new NCO is announced.
