Welcome aboard
New Kings RCMP district commander takes the helm
The Kings District RCMP is welcoming a new district commander who began working out of the New Minas detachment on Monday.
S/ Sgt. Dan Morrow, a 23- year veteran of the force, comes to Kings District from Eskasoni First Nation in Cape Breton where he was posted for nine years.
“I’m really looking forward to taking on this new and challenging role within Kings District,” Morrow said. “I want to ensure the RCMP continues to be an integral part of the community while meeting the needs of those we serve.”
Morrow grew up in Manitoba and enrolled with the RCMP in 1992. Since then, he has gained diverse experience working in the RCMP’s General Investigative Services, Traffic Services Unit, Customs and Excise Program and Undercover Operations. His role in New Minas marks his 10th detachment with the force.
As district commander, Morrow will be promoted to the rank of inspector, responsible for monitoring and guiding administrative and operational functions in Kings District and working with stakeholders to identify and implement local policing priorities.
“It’s very important for me to get to know the stakeholders and citizens in the area so I encourage them to take a minute to stop by the detachment to introduce themselves and say hello,” Morrow said.
Kings District is made up of detachments in Wolfville, Kingston and New Minas.
