Georgina Island Police Service
The Georgina Island Police have been in existence since 1978 under the Ontario First Nation Policing program, which is administered by the OPP. Prior to 1978, community constables provided policing services under the direction of the RCMP.
They currently have three uniform officers and one civilian employee.
The Georgina Island Police provide general policing services to Georgina Island, Snake Island and Fox Island and emergency response on the water and ice of Lake Simcoe.
For emergency services dial 911. For general calls for service call 705-437-2880, which will put you in contact with the OPP Communications Centre. For administrative services call 705-437-1078 during regular business hours.
The Police Station is located at 217 Bear Road. If you need to speak to one of the three police officers that work on Georgina Island, please call (705) 437-1078.

The Fire Station is located on the corner of Chief Joseph Snake Road and Hello Road. Lit is equipped with a newly purchased Fort Gary pumper truck and an ambulance. The Band employs one full-time firefighter and he can be reached at (705) 437-3477. A team of fully-trained volunteers assist Mr. Big Canoe in the event of a fire. As well, there is a trained volunteer First Response Team that responds to 911 emergencies. Both teams are always looking for more volunteers, so please contact the Fire Hall if you are an island resident and are interested in joining.
