The last Sunday in September is Police and Peace Officers’ National Memorial Day. Today, RCMP Newfoundland and Labrador officers and veterans will join our partners in a special parade and memorial at the Confederation Building, where a monument stands in honour of those who have lost their lives in service to our province.
From coast to coast to coast, we rely on police and peace officers to keep our communities safe. These dedicated individuals make a choice to serve others, often at a great personal risk to themselves.
On Police and Peace Officers’ National Memorial Day, we acknowledge and remember all of those who never returned home. We honour their tremendous dedication and sacrifice, and hold their families and friends in our thoughts.
