Officers Ed Sanchuk & Brad Wiersma

In the spring of 2022, the Ontario Provincial Police along with the Canadian Anti Fraud centre collaborated in response to the increasing reports of frauds and scams that were targeting Canadians. They developed a presentation to inform people of common scams as well as what to look for as indicators if the communication that they are receiving, whether text, phone call or email could potentially be a fraud. The Fighting Fraud presentation is a partnership with the OPP, including an Auxiliary member, and the Canadian Anti Fraud centre. Ed and Brad have completed over 15 of these presentations to local service clubs, churches, and senior’s centres; with more presentation dates confirmed for 2023.
