My doctoral research on the construction of Canadian #police officers’ identities is meant to explore the factors that shape today’s officers & their sense of self - professionally & personally. Thanks to @CACP_ACCP & @RoyalRoads for making it happen. bit.ly/3DnrvjO
So proud of my @RoyalRoads PCOM640 students for their amazing engagement, ideas, & passion about the world around them. We need critical thinkers driven by solid communal values that appreciate people as… very human

Go Leafs go! Great to get out with a good friend! Enjoying the good old hockey game with my pal Dustin🙂
It’s always an exciting day when I get to start a new course with a new cohort of MA students. Super excited to be teaching a course entitled Case Studies in Transdisciplinary Justice @RoyalRoads. I hope I can inspire people to be human and see the human in other people.

Pride Month is a time to celebrate diversity, inclusion, & the many contributions of #2SLGBTQI + individuals in our profession & our communities.
The #OACP believes that every member deserves a workplace where they are respected, supported, & able to thrive. Our strength comes from the diverse experiences, perspectives, & identities that make up our #police profession.
🌈 Happy Pride Month #Pride2026 @CACP_ACCP
