Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from McDonald v. Welch, 2015 ONSC 555 (CanLII):

In addition, there is authority for the proposition that the absence of police officers from a community has an impact on the safety and welfare of a community: Speedvale v. Pendlebury, [2003] O.J. No. 5664 (S.C.J.). This is a factor that can be considered and here, it favours London.
