He was a Brockville boy, only 20 years old, killed while attending alone to an call for an impaired driver in the Canadian north. There are already a hundred or so people in the square, including the kids from his High School. The funeral is in the church across from us with two other churches and our art center holding the over-flow. Police officers from across Canada and the US will be attending and they also have set up video equipment in the square. I understand our PM will be there along with other dignitaries. I'm sure though that this is one honour his family would have preferred to forego - he was the pride and joy of his family and will be deeply missed. He was a nice young man who always wanted to be a policeman. His uncles and a couple of cousins are also in the police service.

Past Time Bears Very sorry.
BruinwerksI hope this tragic event (along with the other RCMP deaths in the last couple of years) will bring about some needed changes in the service especially in the North. Sadly, it usually takes tragedy to implement change. All of Canada should be saddened today.
