Safety That Reaches the Business Owner

In 2026, the Extortion Task Force arrested 17 people on 106 charges tied to a campaign of extortion, arson and shootings targeting South Asian businesses across Peel — 324 rounds discharged across the linked incidents.

Brampton's deputy mayor said extortion crimes drove an exodus of residents and businesses from the region.

The 2026 Peel police budget is $837.3M — a 9.9% increase funding 175 new officers.
