Three northwestern Ontario Police Officers Honored

Three Northwestern Ontario Police Officers have been appointed to the Order of Merit of the Police Forces.

The Order was created in 2000, to recognize exceptional service by members and employees of Canadian Police Forces.

Thunder Bay Chief Robert Herman, Treaty 3 Chief Conrad DeLaronde and Kenora OPP Detective Dennis Olinyk have been honoured.

The Order of Merit recognizes contributions by officers that extend beyond the protection of the community.
