Press Release: Statement on Line of Duty Death of OPP Provincial Constable Tarun Bali It is with great sadness that we inform our Membership that OPP Provincial Constable Tarun Bali, Dufferin County Detachment, Central Region died in the line of duty today while working with the James Bay Detachment, North East Region. The circumstances related to the line of duty death are under investigation by the OPP’s Criminal Investigation Branch. Our thoughts are with the Member’s family, friends, and colleagues during this incredibly difficult time. OPP Association President David Sabatini stated “This is every police and family member’s worst nightmare. This is another reminder of the dangers that our Members face each and every day as they serve and protect the citizens of Ontario. On behalf of the OPP Association, we extend our heartfelt condolences to Provincial Constable Bali’s family, friends and colleagues. We will steadfastly support PC Bali’s family and co-workers.” If our Members or family members are in need of support, please contact the Encompas Mental Health Wellness Program by calling or texting 1-866-794-9117, or by visiting encompascare.ca.

Today, on International Day of Remembrance for Fallen Officers, the Canadian Police and Peace Officers' Memorial honours every police officer who has tragically lost their life as a result of serving and protecting our communities. In 1998 the Government of Canada officially proclaimed the last Sunday of September of every year as Police and Peace Officers’ National Memorial Day. In 2003 Canadian Heritage declared the last Sunday of September of every year as a nation-wide half-masting of flags on all federal buildings and establishments in Canada, including the Peace Tower, from sunrise to sunset. These official proclamations are a fitting sign of respect, not only to those who gather on the Hill annually, but also for those who made the ultimate, tragic sacrifice to keep our communities safe and our environment protected. As of the 2025 Canadian Police and Peace Officers’ Memorial, the 28 glass panels on Parliament Hill, overlooking the Ottawa River and the Supreme Court of Canada, now hold 912 names of police and peace officers who gave their lives in service. The names etched on those panels provide a lasting tribute to our heroes and ensure that future generations are reminded of the supreme sacrifices of our fallen officers. @INTERPOL_HQ | #FallenOfficers | #NeverForgotten #HeroesInLife

I typically participate in the @BCLEMemorial every year, but this year I had the privilege of travelling to Ottawa for the @CPPOM, where the VPD had the honour of leading the parade and laying wreaths. Thank you to the @VancouverPD Ceremonial Unit for organizing our contingent.

Thank you to all of our OPPA Members, their families, friends, our staff members, and the community for your support for the Canadian Police And Peace Officers' Memorial Sunday at Parliament Hill in Ottawa. Our OPPA Board of Directors were honoured to participate and were delighted to see so much support for the families of fallen officers as we honour their service and sacrifice. Together we honoured 912 police and peace officers who have died in the line of duty in Canada, including 113 of our own OPP Members, who are on our OPPA Honour Roll. Their service and sacrifice will always be remembered. They are our Heroes In Life.
