4th Canadian Ranger Patrol Group
Who We Are
4th Canadian Ranger Patrol Group (4 CRPG) is responsible for Canada’s four western provinces and reports to the 3rd Canadian Division (3 Cdn Div).
It provides patrols for national-security and public-safety missions in sparsely populated, coastal and isolated areas of Western Canada that cannot be conveniently or economically covered by other parts of the Canadian Armed Forces.
Canadian Rangers of 4 CRPG have been instrumental in the past in helping the RCMP and local enforcement officials by
- patrolling the West Coast and waters of Canada;
- conducting many search and rescue (SAR) operations;
- assisting in community evacuations; and
-
providing support to 3rd Canadian Division Operation LENTUS events.
