Welcome to Internet 101
Here at Internet 101, our motto is “police and partners . . . working together to web-proof our communities”.

A committee of police forces, led by the RCMP, created and maintains this website, a collection of safety tips, helpful presentations and links to further police-approved resources to help kids and parents surf safely.
