In 1998 the Government of Canada Proclaimed the last Sunday in September of every year as the Police and Peace Officers National Memorial Day. A service is held annually at 11:00 am on Parliament Hill. Police and Law Enforcement agencies from across Canada and representatives from the Government of Canada attend the ceremony.

On January 17, 2003, Canadian Heritage declared the last Sunday of September of every year as a nation-wide flag half-masting on all federal buildings and establishments in Canada, including the Peace Tower, from sunrise to sunset in honour of our fallen officers. These official proclamations are a fitting sign of respect, not only to those gathered on the hill but also for those who made the ultimate tragic sacrifice to keep our communities safe and our environment protected.

A few years later, the Manitoba Association of Chiefs of police began organizing a local Memorial Service meant to honour the Police and Peace Officers who lost their lives while serving the citizens of Manitoba. The ceremony is coordinated to take place in conjunction with the National Memorials in Ottawa.

Located on the northeast corner of Broadway Avenue and Osborne Street North. (MAP), the memorial is a combined tribute to Manitoba Peace and Police Officers,  Firefighters, and Labour Workers.

Construction began in 2020 and includes a reflecting pool where visitors can pause to remember the fallen. The Police/Peace Officer and Firefighter granite slabs have the names of the fallen inscribed on the back.
