Winkler Police Service
By now, most in our community are aware of the Pride event taking place tomorrow in Winkler. There has been support expressed for this event, alongside some negative commentary circulating on social media. As a police service, our responsibility is to ensure the safety of all individuals, regardless of their beliefs, background, or lifestyle. We have been in contact with the event organizers and will be available to help ensure the event proceeds safely and without disruption. We recognize that some individuals may choose to attend in protest. The right to protest is protected, provided it is carried out peacefully and within the bounds of the law. Any behavior that crosses the line into criminal activity will be addressed appropriately. While people may hold different views on Pride, everyone is still called to treat others with respect and dignity and ultimately to love our neighbors. For me, that means recognizing the worth of every person in our community regardless of their belief.Under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, all groups have the right to gather and host events free from discrimination. It is not the role of municipal leadership to prevent lawful expression or assembly, and doing so would violate those rights.Winkler is a strong and caring community, and it is encouraging to see so many people choosing respect even amid potential disagreement. My hope is that tomorrow’s event proceeds safely, respectfully, and peacefully for everyone involved.Ryan HuntChief of Police ... See MoreSee Less
