Innes Road Flag Pole @Flag_Innes

The flag of the #PPCLI Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry is hoisted today at half-mast, to recognize and honour a gentleman, an airborne soldier, a Regimental historian, volunteer extraordinaire, and PPCLI Association Member who passed away this morning.

For generations of Canadians, Lloyd Robertson was a trusted presence in our homes and a reassuring voice through moments that shaped our nation. Canada is fortunate that he guided us through so many days. He will be deeply missed. pm.gc.ca/en/news/statem… Photo: Tsin Van

My Royal Canadian Navy #RCN flag flies at half mast today in honour of Battle of Atlantic Sunday. #BattleOfAtlantic @RoyalCanNavy #Orleans #Ottawa #Ontario #Canada

At the National War Memorial on April 24, The Royal Canadian Legion’s Grand President, Vice-Admiral (Ret’d) Larry Murray, laid a wreath on behalf of the Legion marking the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Kapyong. Fought in April 1951 during the Korean War, the Battle of Kapyong saw Canadian troops stand firm against overwhelming enemy forces, helping to halt a major advance and protect Seoul. Their courage and determination remain a defining example of service and sacrifice. Lest we forget. 📷 Richard Lawrence Photography

🚲 Every day, cyclists share the road with vehicles. They're commuting, exercising, or just enjoying a summer ride. But they’re also someone’s parent, partner, friend, or child. Please slow down. Pass with care. Check your mirrors and blind spots. Give space. A few extra seconds of patience can mean a lifetime for someone else. Let’s keep our roads safe for everyone. ~ 🚲 Chaque jour, des cyclistes partagent la route avec des véhicules. Ils vont au travail, font du sport, ou profitent simplement de leur été. Ce sont aussi des parents, des amis, des enfants, des êtres aimés. Ralentissez. Dépassez avec précaution. Vérifiez vos angles morts. Gardez vos distances. Un peu de patience peut éviter une tragédie. Rendons la route plus sécuritaire pour tout le monde. #PartagezLaRoute

"Pupdate" on Piper! 🐾 Since joining the team, Piper has helped in 8 search warrants, finding key digital devices in most of them. She’s also been part of forensic interviews with child victims; 2 victims said they wouldn’t have felt comfortable speaking without her. Piper is quickly becoming a well-known and loved member of the community, recognized for both her important work and the comfort she brings. ~ Depuis qu’elle s’est jointe à l’équipe, Piper a participé à 8 mandats de perquisition, aidant les enquêteurs à trouver des appareils électroniques importants dans la plupart des cas. 📱 Elle a aussi été présente lors d’entrevues médico-légales avec des enfants victimes — 2 d’entre eux ont dit qu’ils ne se seraient pas sentis assez à l’aise pour parler sans elle. Piper devient rapidement une membre bien connue et appréciée de la communauté, reconnue autant pour son travail essentiel que pour le réconfort qu’elle apporte.
