residence one year earlier. A person is classified as a non-mover if no difference exists. Otherwise, a person is classified

distinction is made between non-migrants and migrants; this difference is called migration status.

3.5 Net Import & Export of Labour Force
The next table highlights industry sectors in which there is a net “export” or “import” of
labour. In 2006, there were 3,995 jobs in North Grenville, and an employed resident
labour force of 7,595, indicating that North Grenville was a net “exporter” of at least
3,600 employees. The net export/import calculation is simply the number of jobs in
each of North Grenville's industries minus the number of North Grenville's residents
working in that particular industry. It is important to note that the export/import
numbers indicated under-represent the actual numbers of employees, as this calculation
assumes all of the employed resident labour force in that industry works in North
Grenville.
The size of the North Grenville employed resident labour force exceeds the jobs available
in almost all industry sectors in North Grenville except educational services.

10.4 Emergency and Protective Services
In 2008, a new $1.23 million Ontario Provincial Police Detachment facility was built in
Kemptville to replace the former structure. The new building is nearly 11,000 square
feet, roughly three times the size of the previous facility, and is complete with three
holding cells, updating telephone and IT systems, and a modern infrastructure to
accommodate ever-changing technological needs. The Kemptville Detachment is staffed
by 33 OPP officers and civilians.
North Grenville’s By-Law enforcement officer ensures that a certain standard of living
and a desired quality of life is maintained by residents of the Municipality. By-laws are
enforced on a daily basis and are reviewed and revised as often as necessary.
Within North Grenville is a provincial offenses court presided over by the Justice of the
Peace, as well as a criminal court. Legal services are available within the Municipality as
well.
