The response has been incredible, and we are now approaching participation capacity. We are beyond excited and thrilled to welcome all participants from across Alberta, their families, and spectators, to our 2nd annual tournament in November!

We’re getting closer to our 2026 In Their Honour Invitational Hockey Tournament. Our tournament taking place November 12-15, 2026 in Spruce Grove, AB, brings together teams from Police, Fire, EMS, Military, and other service organizations, for a weekend much more than hockey.

[In Their Honour Foundation @intheirhonour]

It’s an opportunity to honour those we have lost, recognize those who continue to serve, and strengthen the camaraderie and connections that exist among those who serve our communities and beautiful country.

[In Their Honour Foundation @intheirhonour]

Our foundation continues to grow, evolve, and look forward to the future with unwavering focus.

We are so proud to share our newly improved and elevated foundation logo.

Today, on #WorldSuicidePreventionDay, we remember and honour our members who have lost their lives to suicide after experiencing trauma throughout their service.

Last month, we lost three police officers to suicide in just three days. Suicide is never easy to discuss, and within policing, these conversations can be especially challenging. Acknowledging suicide openly is essential to breaking down barriers, and we are committed to fostering open dialogue, listening with empathy, and supporting each other.

Earlier this year, we attended the 3rd Annual Ontario Police Suicide Memorial. Pictured here are the service caps of fallen officers—a powerful reminder of those we have lost and the lasting impact of their service.

If you’re struggling, please know that you’re not alone. We encourage you to reach out for support and access our wellness resources here: https://t.co/12Tpsw7fsX

In response to the recent increase in violence against police officers, association presidents gathered for the All Presidents Meeting: Aligning on Member Safety and Advocacy. This urgent, solutions-focused discussion centered on advancing strategies to protect our members and strengthen advocacy efforts.

Key highlights:

- Addressed proactive public safety communication, the realities and challenges of policing in Canada, oversight and accountability, justice system responses, and the urgent need for effective mental health and substance abuse treatment.
- Heard diverse perspectives from presidents across the province, bringing new priorities to light and ensuring every voice was heard.
- Outlined actionable next steps for both provincial and federal advocacy, and set the path for ongoing member engagement.

Thank you to everyone who contributed their insight and commitment to building a unified response to these critical challenges.

The Ryan family, and the In Their Honour Foundation, continues to pray and hope for healing and recovery of the affected Melville RCMP officers.

We are forever grateful for the brave men and women who put themselves in harm's way to protect our communities.

[OPPA (OPP Association) @OPPAssociation]

Two RCMP officers were shot responding to call for service in Melville, Saskatchewan on June 21st, 2026.

The injured officers remain in hospital in stable condition; however, their injuries are serious and potentially life-altering in nature. 

The brother of one of the RCMP officers is an OPP Association member.

A fundraiser for both officers and their support teams has been organized.

Donations are welcome via e-transfer to [email protected].

The Ryan family is heartbroken and devastated to hear of CIT Magbitang's passing. We are sending our heartfelt thoughts and prayers to his loving family, friends, and colleagues.

May his memory, legacy, and spirit live on forever. @PoliceAssocON

[Police Association of Ontario (PAO) @PoliceAssocON]

Every officer remembers their first day at OPC. Today, we grieve the heartbreaking loss of Constable in Training (CIT) Tyrone Magbitang, who tragically lost his life in a motor vehicle collision en route to his first day of Basic Constable Training at the Ontario Police College.

Tyrone was deeply committed to his lifelong dream of serving and protecting his community—a dream that was taken far too soon. We stand with @AssociationDrp and @DRPS in mourning this profound loss.

Our deepest condolences are with Tyrone’s family, friends, and everyone whose life he touched. May his dedication and spirit be remembered. #HeroesInLife

[Toronto Police @TorontoPolice]

Today, we mourn the loss of Constable Marc Pinizzotto.

“No words can capture the impact on Marc’s family, who expected him to come home today. We as a Service will support them and each other,” Chief Myron Demkiw said. “This loss will have a profound impact on the Toronto Police Family. Our Service, our members, and all members of the larger policing family are deeply saddened.”

It is with deep sorrow that I confirm that #OPP Provincial Constable Tarun Bali was killed in the line of duty this afternoon in Hearst. His courage and commitment to serving others will never be forgotten. As we grieve this immeasurable loss, I extend our heartfelt condolences to his loved ones, colleagues and the policing community.
