Quite the endorsement
Tony Cannavino, President of the Canadian Professional Police Association, spoke this morning on Parliament Hill after the Conservatives made their Security policy announcement:
In conclusion, the Conservative Party’s Security Platform as unveiled this morning by Mr. Harper offers a multi-pronged approach that for the most part, would go a long way in helping police officers to better combat and contain urban violence; violent offenders; and the use, production and trafficking of illicit drugs; and to better defend our national security and the rights of victims of crimes. These social and law and order issues must be dealt with by our politicians to ensure the safety and security of our communities.
The Canadian Professional Police Association hopes that all political parties involved in this electoral campaign will take the opportunity in the weeks ahead to further discuss their “law enforcement platforms” in the public arena and demonstrate, like the Conservative Party, their commitment in making Canada a safer place to live.
