No separate police figures for Malpeque Bay

Statistics Canada publishes crime figures by police service. No police service reports under the name of Malpeque Bay: its crimes are counted with a larger area, such as a regional or provincial police detachment. We don't repeat that area's figures here, because they are not Malpeque Bay's own.
