January 18: Blue Tuesday




There is a ribbon of blue around my home today--and it isn’t even Blue Monday.

The mood is sombre among both spectators and participants. Twelve thousand police officers are marching into the convention centre to attend a funeral. Sgt. Russell was killed last week when he was hit by a stolen snow plough. I think of my two friends who have worked, and even played, alongside him. Thank you, Sgt. Russell for giving your all to protect us from harm. Thank you, officers, for keeping us safe each day.
