This has not been a day for playing games but a day of sorrow, and a day to honour Constable Heidi Stevenson, a veteran RCMP officer as well as a loved wife and mother of two with a reputation for being the best kind of friend, neighbour, and citizen when off duty.
Yesterday, she gave her life in the performance of her duty to uphold the law and protect the innocent. May she be long remembered with honour.

ReplyDeleteThat is so awful.
ReplyDeleteA terrible thing and a worthy tribute Ross.
ReplyDeleteI was so shocked to hear this sad news from a place that seems so peaceful , very sad indeed .
ReplyDeleteRoss Mac,
ReplyDeleteNot the sort of thing one expects to happen in Canada. It must have been devastating for the families of those this person killed as well for their colleagues and local communities. I hope that Constable Stevenson will remembered for doing her duty and risking her life for others. She and the others did not deserve to die.
We shall remember them

Just catching up to the news: shocking and sad, indeed. Well said: honor the service of Constable Stevenson. Mourn the victims. Heal the community--don't elevate the perpetrator.
ReplyDeleteDreadful just awful, Ross,
ReplyDeleteI am very sorry this type of thing has happened in lovely Nova Scotia and the people there.
With prayers for all,

Just saw this dreadful news. So sorry for the families that lost loved ones. Shocked to hear this happened in Canada.
ReplyDeleteAs you say, not a day for games, but to give our thoughts to the families. Removed from the pages of history is exactly what should be done.
Very sad day.
ReplyDeleteAwful news.
ReplyDeleteSo sad to hear of this from down under. Crazy. Our thoughts reach out.
ReplyDeleteOne has become almost disturbingly numb to this sort of shooting in US, sad as it is, but it is depressing to see it happen in Canada as well. May she be remembered with love and honor, and the perpetrator quickly forgotten.
