Today we celebrate the legacy and work of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.—a leader who showed us the power of courage and compassion. His dream lives on when we choose equity, inclusion, and human rights when we serve and protect our communities. #MLKDay #EquityForAll

Congratulations to @CNIB & police partners for producing a new training video to support blind persons/guide dog handlers. Remember: Ontario’s Blind Person’s Rights Act mandates that guide dogs are permitted in places to which the public admitted!

This January marks the fifth year since the Toronto Police Service embarked on its Race and Identity Based Data Collection (RBDC) Strategy. This ongoing initiative applies an iterative, hypothesis-driven approach.

Nearly 50 police services attended the event, the result of a three-year collaboration among services across Ontario and co-led by the Toronto Police Service and the Ontario Provincial Police.

Today, I donated blood at @CanadasLifeline. I’m doing my part to save lives and help towards the @TorontoPolice commitment over the summer to the #SirensForLife campaign.

I’m hoping to encourage others to do the same.

The campaign runs from July 1st to Labour Day.

Happy Canada Day!

Today, members of our unit attended @BethTzedec and were given a tour of their place of worship and a great understanding of #Judaism.

Our unit was very appreciative for the time and answering of all our questions and a better understanding of our community as a whole.

Thanks so much to the students of Our Lady of Peace CES for helping me to close out another Spring of my #bikerodeo program.

We had over 50 kids today and shared a lot of smiles and it was cute to get asked for autographs.

Thx @COPSandKIDSca & @CAASCO for their sponsorship.
