The policing community across Ontario was devasted this week to hear of the tragic loss of two police officers while in the line of duty. Our thoughts and deepest condolences go out to the family and colleagues of Provincial Constable Tarun Bali, Ontario Provincial Police, and Constable Marc Pinizzotto, Toronto Police Service, both who made the ultimate sacrifice. Heroes in life, not death.
These deaths illustrated the great dangers that our police officers face each time they respond to a call. Let their lives be celebrated as we mourn them and let us resolve to ensure that everything is done to keep our officers safe.
