BOSTON --Massachusetts and the Canadian province of Quebec have agreed to share law enforcement information.
The "understanding" was signed by Lieutenant Gov. Tim Murray and Public Safety Secretary Kevin Burke for Massachusetts and by their counterparts in Quebec.
Murray and Burke are in Quebec for a series of meetings. Murray's meetings have addressed transportation and regional energy issues.
Officials didn't release details of the understanding, described as a "partnership and cooperative exchange of law enforcement information."
The two governments have worked closely on security matters in the past. Sever years ago, they agreed to collaborate on emergency preparedness.
In 2003, they agreed to share information on terrorism and organized crime.
