Again, I think these are programs that you, having been so closely associated with policing for much of your life, would celebrate. These awards are aimed at recognizing police officers and youth who engage in some of these programs. They are provided very much in collaboration with organizations across the country, such as the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police and the Canadian Police Association itself. They work closely with us, and it's about promoting some of those underpinnings and the values of the justice system—fairness, inclusiveness, citizen engagement, everything that we would want to promote and embrace. It's a holistic approach, not just to justice but to policing as well, which is very much the sharp end. It's that enforcement that is sometimes most challenging.
The award is now presented every year, usually in the fall, August or September. It's done, as I mentioned, in close association with police themselves, and it helps recognize those who are doing the heavy lifting in our justice system, such as police groups, our front-line officers, community groups, and other justice participants. It's open to the public to nominate and to engage and to recognize people who are deserving and who make a real difference in their communities.
Thank you for the opportunity to promote this. I hope we will see some great nominations this year.
