The Hon. the Speaker: Honourable senators were all deeply saddened and shocked by two recent incidents of killings of police officers on duty. On October 11, South Simcoe Police Service Constables Morgan Russell and Devon Northrup were killed in Innisfil, Ontario, and on October 18, RCMP Constable Shaelyn Yang was killed in Burnaby, British Columbia. We offer our condolences to their families, friends and fellow officers. I would ask you to rise for a minute of silence in their memory.

(Honourable senators then stood in silent tribute.)
