This ceremony and parade coincides with similar parades all across the country, perhaps the most notable of which takes place in Ottawa. On May 23, 2003 the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador officially proclaimed the last Sunday in September of each year as Newfoundland and Labrador Police and Peace Officers' Memorial Day. Newfoundland and Labrador has its own organization dedicated to honour the memory of police and peace officers who have died in the line of duty. Currently, the names of 20 officers are etched on our Provincial Memorial in St. John's. continued ... Photos courtesy of Cst. Georgina Short
