@Insulting to other front-line employees – “Men have dominated again.” Yes, insulting that you had to make it gender-specific. Thus, nurses are limited by the Ford government to 1% per year and the police receive 10.9%. The police are doing important work, but it is a slap in the face of nurses exposed to violence, shortages, Covid, etc. Probably because it is dominated by women, it is ignored by the government. Port Perry firefighters reached about 7% in 4 years last fall. The man dominated again. Offensive We need Durham Region to hire more 9-1-1 operators.

Our members serve all municipal and provincial police services, First Nations police services, the Canadian National Police and the Canadian Pacific Railway Police, and we look forward to involving Royal Canadian Mounted Police personnel as they certify their own independent association. On behalf of our members, we work across party lines with MPs from all political parties to advocate for policies that promote public safety while improving the health and safety of those who serve their communities. Our members regularly appear before parliamentary committees to testify before experts during legislative reviews and are always available to facilitate meetings with parliamentarians in their home districts to provide a local police perspective on important issues. Throughout the 42nd Parliament, we were proud to work with parliamentarians on a number of key issues, including the recently introduced regime to legalize recreational marijuana and the adoption of a national strategy to address the unique mental health issues facing our country`s first responders. We are pleased that members of the House of Commons and Senate from all parties have worked with Canada`s public police professionals to ensure that the public safety of our communities is a key factor in the policy development process, and we look forward to continuing that commitment.

Why do we not stop being so critical of our emergency services, whether it is the fire department or our excellent nurses? They all do a job that none of us want to do, but they are the first person we call when we need help. Less than 2% to do the work we don`t want to do.

Guess that the fire department will be the next to look for a big fat gain (if they haven`t already). They like to remind us that they have a hard job that is supposed to justify the increase. I`m sure they have a tough job, but the same goes for everyone who is trying to cope with expenses. Next year, you`ll hear about how the region needs to raise taxes to pay for it. In the meantime, those lucky enough to still have a job have frozen their wages. Remember that if a policy gives its officers a big raise. The rest of the province`s armed forces will follow.

I just wish a government official had the courage to lower the plant rate and reduce our taxes. Also, I think it`s a good idea to defund the police – allocating police funds to public relations and mental health will lead to better outcomes. “The DRPA [Durham Regional Police Association] has been able to secure significant salary and benefit increases for all members, sworn and civilian, and we have negotiated positive changes to the working conditions of our members,” said Colin Goodwin, President of the DPRA. “The association is satisfied with the results of this round of negotiations.” Don`t judge until you`ve looked closely at what they`re actually doing to help the community.
