There are two police checks applicable in the town of Lunenburg - Criminal Record Check (CRC) and Vulnerable Sector Check (VSC). A Criminal Record Check (CRC) reveals the crimes committed by an individual, including his/her conviction history, youth records, and discharges. This is vital data obtained from reliable sources such as the Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC). There are two ways through which one can get a CRC; either visit the Lunenburg Detachment Centre directly or submit it online through Globeia. It usually takes several days to several weeks before processing is complete.
