Our thoughts are with colleagues in Saskatchewan after yesterday’s serious incident where two RCMP officers were shot and seriously injured. We support the officers, their families, and all RCMP members. This highlights the risks officers face protecting communities every day.

@PresidentPAO @PoliceAssocON @npffpn @SPVM I could not have said it better myself, Mark.

[Scott Moe @PremierScottMoe]

Our thoughts and prayers are with the two seriously injured RCMP officers, their families, friends, colleagues, and the entire Melville community.

Every day, law enforcement officers put themselves in harm’s way to protect our communities and keep Saskatchewan families safe.

We are grateful for their service, courage, and commitment, as well as for the first responders and medical teams providing care and support during this difficult time.

On behalf of the people of Saskatchewan, we are hoping for their full and speedy recovery and stand with all those affected by this senseless act of violence.

[OACPOfficial @OACPOfficial]

The on-duty death of the @SPVM officer serves as a solemn reminder of the profound dangers #police professionals face every day. We deeply honour the unwavering dedication, courage, & selflessness displayed by those who protect our communities.
Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with the family, friends, & colleagues of the fallen officer. We stand united with the entire Canadian police community during this incredibly difficult time.

Last night, two RCMP Members in Saskatchewan were shot and injured while responding to a call for service in their community. We are wishing a full and speedy recovery to the officers and strength to their families and colleagues as they recover physically and mentally.

Every day, RCMP Members put themselves on the line to protect us. They run towards danger when all others run from it. This violence cannot become something we normalize, excuse, or ignore.

We stand firmly with all Members and the policing community against this kind of violence and in holding those injured in our hearts and thoughts as they recover.

Earlier today, an SPVM officer was murdered, and another injured following a horrifying and tragic shooting in Montreal. This is another brutal, intolerable act of violence against people who move into danger while the rest of us run away.

Violence against first responders is despicable. It is cowardly. It must end now.

Every day, police officers and other first responders follow their oath to put themselves at measured risk and uncertainty to keep our communities safe. They, like all of us, deserve to go home to their families at the end of their shift. They deserve the highest level of protection and safety. No compromise, and no excuses.

This has been a horrific and tragic month for police across the country with violence killing police officers in Ontario, Toronto, Saskatchewan, and Montreal. This is a troubling trend that demands attention.

We mourn the officer killed on duty and extend our hearts and best wishes to his family and also to the officer injured. We wish them a speedy and full recovery. We stand with the family and colleagues of these SPVM officers, the Fraternité des policiers et policières de Montréal (@FPPM_), and the entire Montreal police community. We also demand better support for every first responder putting their life on the line today and every day.

Please thank the police in your community who are all reeling from these terrible losses.

Today, we recognize RCMP Members who are fathers, as well as the fathers, mentors, role models, and caregivers whose guidance, strength, and support help shape our lives.

To our Members who are fathers, thank you for the sacrifices you make every day, as you balance commitment to your families with your commitment to serving and protecting communities across the country. While many are spending today with loved ones, some of you are on duty, answering the call and putting service before self.

At home and in uniform, your leadership, compassion, and example leave a lasting impact.

Thank you for your service, your sacrifice, and the countless ways you make a difference.

Happy Father’s Day. 💙

Aujourd’hui, nous rendons hommage aux membres de la GRC qui sont pères, ainsi qu’aux pères, mentors, modèles et aidants dont les conseils, la force et le soutien contribuent à façonner nos vies.

À nos membres qui sont pères, merci pour les sacrifices que vous faites chaque jour, alors que vous conciliez votre engagement envers votre famille et votre engagement à servir et à protéger les communautés partout au pays. Alors que beaucoup passent cette journée avec leurs proches, certains d’entre vous sont en service, répondant à l’appel et faisant passer le service avant eux-mêmes.

À la maison et en uniforme, votre leadership, votre compassion et votre exemple laissent une impression durable.

Merci pour votre service, votre sacrifice et les innombrables gestes qui font la différence.

Bonne fête des Pères. 💙

Albertans already have a say in how RCMP policing works here. The Province should let Albertans have a direct say in what comes next.

Behind the uniform, many RCMP Members are dads first.

They’re showing up for their communities and then heading home to show up for their kids, too.

This Father’s Day, we’re thinking about all the Alberta dads working to keep their communities and families safe.

Outstanding work by the Kelowna RCMP Drugs and Organized Crime Unit. A months-long investigation led to coordinated search warrants across Kelowna and West Kelowna, taking roughly 5 kg of suspected illicit drugs — and 15 kg of fentanyl cutting agent — off our streets, along with $55,000 in cash and luxury goods tied to the trade.

Disrupting mid- and high-level traffickers protects whole communities from the harm organized crime causes. My thanks to all of the officers involved. This is exactly the kind of proactive enforcement that makes a difference.

What a game, what a tournament and what a proud moment for Canada and British Columbia!

Hosting the world means keeping everyone safe. Thank you to @VancouverPD, @BCRCMP, @deltapolice and all our public safety partners for your strong leadership and collaboration, which is vital for a successful FIFA World Cup 26 in B.C. 

From game days to watch parties and community events, it is truly all hands on deck and around the clock work.

9-8-8 is for everyone - including young people.

You don’t have to wait until it feels unbearable. If something doesn’t feel right, that’s enough to reach out.

Call or text 988. 24/7. No judgment.

So sad watching this. What a terrible few weeks it’s been for police officers in our province.

As Canada welcomes the world for the World Cup, places like the Vancouver International Airport (YVR) are part of the work happening behind the scenes.

This short video,” highlights the work RCMP Members do every day in a complex, fast-moving environment, supporting safety, coordination, and operational readiness alongside partners at one of Canada’s busiest international airports.

From operations on the ground, to coordinated security efforts, RCMP Members play an important role in helping keep travel safe and moving smoothly.

While the world watches Team Canada take the field today, this is a look behind the scenes at another team serving with pride. From all of us, go Team Canada!

Alors que le Canada accueille le monde entier à l’occasion de la Coupe du monde, des lieux comme l’aéroport international de Vancouver (YVR) contribuent aux efforts déployés en coulisses.

Cette courte vidéo met en lumière le travail que les membres de la GRC accomplissent chaque jour dans un environnement complexe et en constante évolution, en veillant à la sécurité, à la coordination et à la préparation opérationnelle aux côtés de leurs partenaires dans l’un des aéroports internationaux les plus fréquentés du Canada.

Des opérations sur le terrain aux efforts coordonnés en matière de sécurité, les membres de la GRC jouent un rôle important pour contribuer à la sécurité et au bon déroulement des déplacements.

Alors que le monde entier regarde l’équipe du Canada entrer sur le terrain aujourd’hui, voici un aperçu des coulisses d’une autre équipe qui sert avec fierté. De la part de nous tous, allez l’équipe du Canada !
