“It is Police and Peace Officers' National Memorial Day. Five police officers and three peace officers have died on the job this year. I offer my condolences to their families and thank all officers for keeping our communities safe.”
“Madam Speaker, I rise to recognize Police and Peace Officers’ National Memorial Day, which falls on the last Sunday of September. Over 900 brave officers have made the ultimate sacrifice in the service of their communities. We honour their sacrifice and their families by building a safer Canada. With deep sadness, I advise the House that five police officers and three peace officers have died in the line of duty to date in 2026. I extend my deepest condolences to their families and to all members of the policing and peace officer communities. Their deaths are a sobering reminder of the risks that accompany their service, yet every day, brave officers stand ready to run into danger to keep us safe. This summer I had the pleasure of partnering with the fine officers of Toronto Police Service 33 Division in my riding of Don Valley North. I commend their professionalism and their always showing up for our community. We owe police and peace officers an enduring debt of gratitude, and I thank them for their dedication to keeping our communities safe.”
