Manitoba Police & Peace Officers Memorial
The Manitoba Association of Chiefs of Police is hosting the Provincial Police and Peace Officers Memorial Service, on Sunday, September 28th at 11:00 a.m. on the south side grounds of the Manitoba Legislature.
On September 24, 1998 the Government of Canada proclaimed the last Sunday in September of every year as the Police and Peace Officers' National Memorial Day.
The Proclamation was made to give Canadians an opportunity to formally express appreciation for the dedication of police and peace officers who make the ultimate, tragic sacrifice to keep our communities safe.
This year, more than 600 female officers from around the globe will join us as part of the International Association of Women in Police (IAWP) Parade of Nations March leading to the Memorial.
The parade will commence at the Fort Garry Hotel on Broadway on September 28th at 10:00 a.m. The delegates will then march westbound on Broadway to the grounds at the Manitoba Legislature.
Members of the public and media are encouraged to attend.
