Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the police officers who serve our communities, uphold the law and protect our families. For all this, they deserve our gratitude.
Policing is an honourable profession. Every day, officers put their own safety at risk to keep our country safe. My community of Durham is home to police who work in the Durham region, Toronto, York region, Peterborough and Kawartha Lakes police services, as well as the RCMP.
We thank them. I encourage all young Canadians with a heart for public service to consider a career in policing, where some of the best and brightest in our country protect and serve.
