Flags Lowered for Police and Peace Officers' National Memorial Day

The flags at all municipally-owned facilities will be lowered to half-mast from sunrise to sunset this Sunday, September 28 in recognition of Police and Peace Officers' National Memorial Day.

This annual observance provides an opportunity to formally honour the dedication of police and peace officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty. It also allows us to extend our condolences to the families and loved ones of those who gave their lives in service to their communities.

We take this time to acknowledge the work of the Timmins Police Service and the members of the Ontario Provincial Police - South Porcupine Detachment. Their ongoing efforts to protect our city, residents, roads, and highways are deeply valued and appreciated.
