This is a none fishing related Thread….But I posted here because I believe it’s important to us all
I would like all of us here on Fish-Hawk. Net …to take a few minutes to think of the four brave Members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police who gave their lives in the performance of their Duty ! My thoughts and payers go out to their Families, and friends.
Salmon….Simon I’m so sad that you lost four of your comrades in arms, words cannot express my sorrow in hearing about this most tragic loss . These four officers are truly CANADIAN heroes, as are all the members of all police forces across Canada and the U.S. , who every day put their lives, on the line for us . With a heavy heart, my hat is off to you and all officers of the LAW... at this, one of the saddest days in Canadian history

I have many friends who are police officers and some of them are out west. I couldn't help but think of them immediately.
These are brave men and women and we owe them. They do a very big part in giving us a way of life like no other place on earth. It is such a sad day when a tragedy of this magnitude happens.
I can remeber the devestation of a friend of mine...we played hockey together in Minor hockey. His father was a Mortorcycle Cop and was killed in the line of duty. I have never forgotten that and how hard it was for a son to lose a father that way. My heart goes out to the families in mourning at this sad time!

A very sad day.
Who ever thinks that a little pot is harmless does not understand what the drug trade is about.
My heart goes out the families these brave men left behind.

My thoughts and prayers go out to their families left behind and to those who served beside them. This was the worst tragedy in RCMP history since the 1880's.
As Legend stated this could have happened anywhere. Grows are in every type of neighbourhood.

Tragic news , I remember all the jokes flying around when the big Barrie Grow Op ( Molsons plant) was discovered , thankfully no physco on patrol then.
I have 4 members of my family on the force and I can't imagine how this effects them.
Our Thoughts and prayers are with the family.
