Niagara Region, October 23, 2014 – On behalf of all Niagarans, I extend sincere condolences to the family and friends of the Canadian Armed Forces member who was killed in yesterday’s (October 22nd) attack in Ottawa.

I stand with all Canadians in condemning this deplorable act. I and all members of Regional Council applaud the work of the brave men and women of our armed forces, police departments and first responders, who acted swiftly and with resolve to ensure the safety of parliament, public servants and the residents of Ottawa.

Our thoughts and prayers will continue to be with all those affected by these grave events.

  1. Why don’t some of our great leaders question Harper, and Chrétien before him on foreign policy that has obviously led to making Canada and Canadians a target? These two men (the soldiers from Hamilton and Quebec) died for that policy!
