Proud to speak at the Safety of Our Cities Conference which brings public safety stakeholders together from around Canada and United States.
The goal of the conference is to seek innovative strategies to address public safety challenges faced by cities with a focus on upstream policing.
Thanks to @ChiefNish for leading the charge on sharing best practices. There is no monopoly on a good idea. A new technology they works in Brampton can work in Vancouver or Edmonton. A new approach in Nashville or Seattle can work in our City. We can all learn from each other.
My deepest condolences to both law enforcement agencies and the families of the fallen. During this difficult time, know that the entire Edmonton Police Service stands in solidarity with all members of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department and the U.S. Marshalls. (2/2)
I was profoundly saddened to learn of the tragic events that unfolded in Charlotte, NC. The loss of 4 officers, and another 4 injured is an unimaginable blow to the U.S Marshals Task Force and the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department and the law enforcement community. 1/2
As with any major incident in a public place, we understand citizens are concerned. We are incredibly lucky that no lives were lost and we are grateful for all of the witnesses who have come forward. Added thanks to WEM security and first responders for their assistance.
The violence that’s unfolded in our city over the past 72 hours is completely unacceptable. Officers have been working tirelessly to uphold public safety, but this cannot continue.
The last three days have been incredibly taxing on our officers. Various resources and units have had to be deployed to address public safety concerns. I want to thank officers for continuing to show their resilience and dedication to serving and protecting the city.

Tan’si. Happy National Indigenous Peoples Day. EPS celebrates Indigenous culture every day. New artwork at PHQ is a reminder of our connection with the Papaschase. I want to thank Chief Calvin Bruneau and the Papaschase people for working with EPS to build a brighter future.
Congratulations to Det. Manuel Illner on receiving the Kiwanis Club of Edmonton’s Top Cop Award. This award shows that the community has seen all that you do. Thank you.
I would like to extend my deepest condolences to family, friends, and colleagues in Ontario who are grieving yet another loss of an officer and a community member. Know that we are keeping you in our thoughts.
