A great ONGIA training in Edmundston, NB 🇨🇦, hosted in collaboration with local and federal representatives and Mayor Éric Marquis. About 100 officers from Canada and the U.S. trained with presenters from the RCMP, USSS NTAC, FBI, SPVM, SQ and RBH.
The ONGIA Board is deeply saddened by the loss of Sgt. Morgan Wong, Pte. Shaun Farrell, Pte. Aidan Goulding and Pte. Hayden Lykkemark at CFB Wainwright. Our hearts are with their families, comrades, and the 39 injured members. We will remember them. 🇨🇦 #CFBWainwright
A National Perspective: Extortion & Transnational Organized Crime
Extortion is no longer a local crime issue. Recent investigations across Canada and the United States show it has become a national and transnational organized crime concern.
The full week is set. 📅
ONGIA's 25th Annual National Gang Summit, Organized Crime, Gangs & Youth: Building Solutions for a Safer Future, runs November 9-12, 2026 in Toronto.
Prevention was never a policing job alone. Rob Rai on the pathways into gangs, and the off-ramps out. Nov 10 & 11, for every educator + community partner in the room. https://t.co/nbHtYzxoCX

📍 Stay Where the Summit Happens
We're pleased to announce the official venue for ONGIA's 25th Annual National Gang Summit: Organized Crime, Gangs & Youth: Building Solutions for a Safer Future, taking place in Toronto this November.
🇨🇦 YOUTH, FIREARMS & A NATIONALLY CONNECTED CHALLENGE
Recent cases across Canada keep pointing to the same thing: youth involved in serious violence, easier access to firearms, and a growing need for agencies to work across borders.
ROB RAI: gang prevention isn't just a policing issue. Educators, youth workers, parents, mental health pros, community orgs & law enforcement - all at the table.
25 years. One mission, always growing.
ONGIA started in 2001 as a provincial initiative to address street gangs in Canada. Today, we're a national leader training law enforcement, corrections, educators, and community partners from coast to coast on street gangs.
Janet Campbell, President & CEO of The Joy Smith Foundation, joins this year's National Gang Summit in Toronto. The Foundation is Canada's leading authority on human trafficking prevention, intervention, and survivor support.
Same networks. Same neighbourhoods. Auto theft, gun violence, gang recruitment, organized retail crime are connected and so is the work to stop them.
Thank you to our 2026 sponsors for supporting @ONGIA's training + the National Gang Summit.

#ProjectBay, a joint Canada–U.S. investigation, has resulted in one of the most significant single-investigation drug seizures in Ontario's history: nearly 1.7 tonnes of drugs valued at more than $139 million, and 21 individuals charged with 102 offences.
