Since September 2019, the Fort Simpson post office has been broken into three times, each time items were stolen from packages.

Police say the break-ins happened at the Canada Post office in Fort Simpson on three separate occasions in September, November and December 2019. Each time, items from “various packages” were stolen. Police pointed out the theft of a pair of brown DC brand winter boots.
