Today my lights will be “Blue” in honour of PC Greg Pierzchala #16028, who was murdered in the line of duty 3 years ago today. I wish to pay my respects to the Pierzchala family and my policing family. Rest easy Greg - we still have it from here.

Remembering all the first responders and innocent civilians who lost their lives on this day, and continue to perish and suffer due to medical conditions post 9/11.

My house lights will remain on today as a solemn memorial

Never forget

Today is First Responders Day in Ontario. Thank you to all the paramedics, police officers, firefighters, military personnel, dispatchers, nurses, doctors, and other essential emergency personnel for their dedication.

December 27th, 2022 was the hardest day of my career. 849 days later justice has been served. I pray that these convictions provide some relief for the Pierzchala family, Haldimand County OPP, Six Nations PS, Haldimand County FD/EMS

RIP Greg. We still have your back.

Thank you to all the communicators out there, present and past. Without you we could not do what we do. You’re often overlooked but never forgotten. You are family and always will be.
