Manitoba Grieves with Moncton for RCMP Officers' Deaths


June 5, 2014

STATEMENT FROM PREMIER SELINGER ON DEATHS OF RCMP OFFICERS IN MONCTON



Manitobans are grieving at the senseless murders of three RCMP officers in Moncton yesterday.  Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the fallen officers and our hopes for a swift recovery are with the two officers who were wounded in the line of duty.

This is a stark reminder of the risks taken by law enforcement officers on a daily basis, as well as the commitment and sacrifices made by the RCMP and their families.  I would like to commend the efforts of the RCMP and first responders who are responsible for protecting the citizens of Moncton in what must have been, and continues to be, an unimaginably stressful situation.

We stand with our fellow Canadians to offer our support and our deepest sympathies to our friends in New Brunswick during this extremely difficult time.
