Bringing public safety information to the citizens of Newfoundland & Labrador
25th ANNUAL COMMUNITY GUIDE
SECURING OUR COMMUNITY... STRENGTHENING OUR COMMITMENT www.rnca.ca 1 Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Association www.rnca.ca 2 PRESIDENT’S m e s s a g e
It gives me great pleasure to announce that this year marks the 25th anniversary of the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary (RNC) Association Annual Community Guide! Over the past twenty-five years the RNC Association has been thrilled to share safety information throughout the communities of Newfoundland and Labrador with our annual publication. It has been through the tremendous support from members of our community and business sponsors that we are able to share this vital safety and awareness information to the people of our province. Over the years, we have helped many topics become a part of the discussions regarding safety within homes and schools in our province. From bullying in the classroom to elder abuse awareness, each topic has been important and has hopefully helped members of our community to start a conversation with their loved ones. The RNC Association has been fortunate to have had numerous requests from school and community groups around the province for additional copies of our Community Guide to share. We are pleased to announce that our Community Guides are now available online for your convenience. You may visit our website, www.rnca.ca, at any time to download your very own electronic copy. This year, we will be donating a portion of the proceeds from our Community Guide support towards the Newfoundland Division of the Canadian Mental Health Association. This local chapter of the national organization aims to be a leader for mental health and facilitates access to resources which people require to maintain and improve mental health and community integration, build resilience and support recovery from mental illness. We are very proud to support this organization in conjunction with this year’s guide which aims to bring awareness to at-risk youths who may become involved in radicalization and extremism. It is my hope that you find this year’s guide informative and that you will share it with those in your community. On behalf of the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Association Executive Board and its membership, thank you again for your support!
Sincerely,
Warren Sullivan President RNC Association

www.rnca.ca 7 Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Association www.rnca.ca 8 PUBLISHER’S MESSAGE
This is the 25th Anniversary of our Annual RNCA Crime Prevention Guide and covers the timely subject of Homeland Security Awareness, focusing on the potential radicalization of our youth, which can lead to acts of violence and terrorism, such as the tragic 2014 police shootings in Moncton, NB and the thwarted attack at the Halifax Shopping Centre.
This publication is designed to educate and promote the public’s role in identifying and reporting potential Homeland Security concerns, and is made possible as a result of financial contributions from residents and business representatives throughout the province to support the activities of the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Association and allows them to give back to their communities through donations to various local charities and youth-oriented programs.
On behalf of Fenety Marketing and the RNCA, I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank each and every contributor of our 2015 Telephone Appeal. This unique publication is distributed free-of- charge each year to schools, libraries and public facilities and it is also available online at RNCA's website at www.rnca.ca, making it easily accessible to everyone.
Your comments or suggestions regarding these publications are always welcome and we look forward to speaking with you each year during our Annual Telephone Appeal.
Respectfully,
Mark T. Fenety President Fenety Marketing Services (Atlantic) Ltd. “Providing quality, professional marketing and fundraising services on behalf of high-profile, non-profit organizations.”

Knowing this will help law enforcement agencies turn their attention to those that are more susceptible to radicalization. terrorist organizations prefer recruiting from the educated elite, whose members will be more successful in carrying out the attack (Krueger, 2007). thus the emphasis should be on the demand side (terrorist organizations) – degrading their financial and technical capabilities and promoting peaceful means of protest should help counter- terrorism policy. dampening (the supply) the flow of people willing to join terrorist organizations, according to Krueger (2007) is a policy that is unlikely to succeed. fotosearch www.rnca.ca 29 Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Association Charles S.

www.rnca.ca 38 Building Resilience Against Terrorism CANADA’S COUNTER-TERRORISM STRATEGY Public Safety Canada aim and fundamenTal principles the first priority of the Government of Canada is to protect Canada and the safety of Canadians at home and abroad. that means protecting the physical security of Canadians, and their values and institutions. the strategy is necessarily comprehensive because the terrorist threat is multidimensional. First, Canada has been and will continue to be a target of terrorists. second, Canadian citizens and permanent residents are known to have been involved in terrorist activities or associated with international terrorist groups. third, terrorists may try to use Canada as a base to finance, support or conduct attacks against other countries. the strategy is directed against terrorism in all its dimensions. Countering terrorism demands a global strategy of partnership with others. the strategy ensures that Canada remains a capable and reliable partner in countering international terrorism and in defending Canada, Canadians and Canadian interests. aim of The sTraTegY the aim of Building resilience Against terrorism is to counter domestic and international terrorism in order to protect Canada, Canadians and Canadian interests. principles underpinning The sTraTegY Principles matter. they affirm Canada’s democratic values. they provide a clear articulation of how Canada conducts its work. they explain to others around the world what Canada stands for, and what they can expect from Canada in countering the terrorist threat. the strategy is founded on six fundamental principles: 1. Building resilience 2. terrorism is a crime and will be prosecuted 3. Adherence to the rule of law 4. Cooperation and partnerships 5. Proportionate and measured response 6. A flexible and forward-looking approach these principles are based on fundamental Canadian values, as well as Canada’s practical experience in dealing with terrorism. the Canadian experience has been shaped by a deep attachment to democracy, the rule of law, respect for human rights and pluralism. it is based on openness to ideas and innovations, and to people from every part of the world. it is also a society that rejects intolerance and violent extremism. security ultimately depends upon a respect for these values. When they are imperilled, the safety and prosperity of everyone will be threatened. continued...

A proportionate and measured approach—one that has support and participation from all partners—is more likely to lead to long-term success in Canada’s overall counter-terrorism efforts, as well as in its efforts to build a resilient society. building resilience resilience is both a principle and an underlying theme of the strategy. Building a resilient Canada involves fostering a society in which individuals and communities are able to withstand violent extremist ideologies and challenge those who espouse them. they support and participate in efforts that seek to protect Canada and Canadian interests from terrorist threats. A resilient Canada is one that is able to mitigate the impacts of a terrorist attack, ensuring a rapid return to ordinary life. Terrorism is a crime and Will be prosecuTed terrorist activities are criminal acts. the Government will always aim to support the prosecution of those responsible for terrorist activities in Canada and abroad whenever possible, taking into account any competing national security interests that may compromise the safety and security of Canadians. Criminal investigations into terrorist activity will continue to be led by the police, supported by the Canadian security intelligence service (Csis) and other agencies with security intelligence roles. Canada will work with foreign partners to build their legal capacity to investigate and prosecute terrorist activities and assist them in foreign prosecutions. support for the prosecution of terrorists demonstrates the Government’s commitment to protecting the public and to countering terrorism. adherence To The rule of laW Canadian society is built on the rule of law as a cornerstone of peace, order and good government. it follows that all counter-terrorism activities must adhere to the rule of law. Government institutions must act within legal mandates. Authorities for counter-terrorism efforts are defined by laws consistent with Canada’s Constitution, and that include mechanisms for accountability, oversight and review that protect Canadian society from the inadvertent erosion of the very liberties that Canada is determined to uphold. Accountability develops trust, which builds security. this principle includes respect for human rights, both those enshrined in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (the Charter) and in international legal obligations, such as international human rights and humanitarian law. respecting and promoting human rights is fundamental to core Canadian values. security is also a human right. terrorism is an attack against those very rights that are fundamental to Canadian society, such as freedom of thought, expression and association, and the right to life, liberty and security of the person. the belief in human rights is fundamental. it governs policy choices and decision making, and it governs standards in investigations. it also guides Canada’s dealings with countries with questionable human rights records. Canadian officials will often be called upon to exercise careful judgment on these matters, but understanding the place of human rights at the core of Canada’s strategic approach provides guidance when making these decisions. continued... www.rnca.ca 41 Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Association MAIN STREET Night Sounds PHARMACY

Partnerships with provincial and municipal law enforcement agencies are particularly crucial. it also means engaging with industry stakeholders, non-governmental organizations (nGos), citizens and foreign governments. domestically, counter-terrorism involves many federal departments and agencies. Cooperation and seamless information sharing within and between security intelligence agencies and law enforcement is essential to effectively address the terrorist threat. these institutions in turn work with their provincial, territorial and municipal counterparts. one notable mechanism for doing so is through the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police Counter-terrorism and national security Committee. Current membership includes senior officials from the royal Canadian mounted Police (rCmP), from the provincial and municipal police forces across Canada and from Csis, as well as the Correctional service of Canada (CsC) and the Canadian Forces Provost marshal. Governments partner extensively with the private sector and nGos to protect the nation’s critical infrastructure and bolster the resilience of communities. everyone is called upon to play a part. Government partnership with citizens is critical. Citizens need to be informed of the threat in an honest, straightforward manner to foster a deeper understanding of why particular actions are needed to respond to the threat. Working in local communities, citizens will also provide the most effective avenue to strengthen society so as to maximize resistance to violent extremism. Citizens have a responsibility to work with law enforcement and security personnel. in this way, Government stands shoulder to shoulder with citizens in standing up to violent extremist ideology. terrorism is a global threat. events in other countries are inextricably linked to extremism in Canada. the global environment is more interdependent than ever before, and what happens abroad can have a significant impact domestically. the dividing lines between security policy and foreign and defence policy have blurred significantly. Countering the threat demands close cooperation with other countries. this means continuing collaboration with longstanding allies and well established international organizations, such as the north Atlantic treaty organization (nAto). it also means working with partners with which Canada has less history of dealing. sometimes these efforts will be bilateral. At other times they will require working through multilateral fora, such as the United nations (Un), the G8 and the Global Counterterrorism Forum. it may mean working to stabilize countries that provide a permissive threat environment. Foreign policy planning is more relevant to Canada’s national security than ever before. Canada is also an active participant in the work of the Financial Action task Force (FAtF), the international organization that sets standards with respect to combating money laundering and terrorist financing, and the egmont Group, a forum for financial intelligence units around the world to facilitate and improve cooperation, especially in the area of information exchange, in the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing.

Canada’s approach to terrorism will be proportionate to the threat, neither an overreaction nor an underreaction. As security is a fundamental human right, the Government of Canada will uphold this right in a manner consistent with other Canadian rights and freedoms. Accordingly, the measures taken must be carefully designed to reasonably manage the actual threat while minimizing interference with the public as people go about daily activities. a fleXible and forWard-looking approach Canada’s response to terrorism must anticipate how the threat will evolve over time. equally, Canada’s efforts will focus on prevention and address factors that make individuals susceptible to violent extremist ideologies. terrorist groups adapt their techniques and capabilities to their operating environment. they use new technologies, respond to international and domestic events, and create new organizational structures and capabilities in response to domestic and international counterterrorism efforts. Canada’s approach to counter-terrorism will be flexible and forward-looking to anticipate and adapt to these changes by adjusting counter-terrorism activities and priorities. to maximize results under the strategy, it must also address the factors that contribute to terrorism. For this reason, the strategy seeks to address conditions that are conducive to terrorism through efforts, such as countering violent extremism and Canada’s Counterterrorism Capacity Building Program.

www.rnca.ca 46 ...continued The sTraTegY prevent, detect, deny and respond this chapter describes how the Government is seeking to achieve the aim of countering domestic and international terrorism in order to protect Canada, Canadians and Canadian interests. Building Resilience Against Terrorism has four mutually reinforcing elements: prevent individuals from engaging in terrorism; detect the activities of individuals and organizations who may pose a terrorist threat; deny terrorists the means and opportunity to carry out their activities; and respond proportionately, rapidly and in an organized manner to terrorist activities and mitigate their effects. All four elements contribute to building a resilient Canada. the Prevent element fosters a Canada that is resistant to violent extremism. the detect and deny elements ensure Canada is able to identify terrorist activities early, and that it is a difficult target for would-be terrorists. the Respond element engenders a resilient society able to bounce back quickly when terrorist incidents do occur. frameWork of canada’s counTer Terrorism sTraTegY

For each of the elements of the strategy, a clear understanding of what is required to achieve success and how Canada’s efforts are coordinated and contribute to the delivery of the strategy, is necessary. therefore, the remainder of this chapter sets out for each element: • the purpose of that element of the strategy; • the desired outcomes Canada is seeking to achieve; • and the main programs and activities that contribute to that element. For an issue as complex and cross cutting as counter-terrorism, many programs and activities contribute to the attainment of more than one strategic outcome, and in some cases, support more than one element of the strategy. the programs and activities identified here are discussed in relation to the element of the strategy to which they make their primary contribution. prevent purpose to prevent individuals from engaging in terrorism. this element focuses on the motivations of individuals who engage in, or have the potential to engage in, terrorist activities at home and abroad. Canada aims to target and diminish the factors contributing to terrorism by actively engaging with individuals, communities and international partners, and through research to better understand these factors and how to counter them. desired ouTcomes • resilience of communities to violent extremism and radicalization is bolstered. • Violent extremist ideology is effectively challenged by producing effective narratives to counter it. • the risk of individuals succumbing to violent extremism and radicalization is reduced. programs and acTiviTies Working with individuals and communities to counter violent extremism the threat from violent extremism is a significant national security challenge. radicalization, which is the precursor to violent extremism, is a process by which individuals are introduced to an overtly ideological message and belief system that encourages movement from moderate, mainstream beliefs towards extremist views. this becomes a threat to national security when individuals or groups espouse or engage in violence as a means of promoting political, ideological or religious objectives. continued... www.rnca.ca 49 Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Association LeGrow’sWe Know Travel Travel Best.

www.rnca.ca 50 ...continued The sTraTegY prevent, detect, deny and respond the strategy articulates Canada’s commitment to addressing the factors contributing to terrorism, including radicalization leading to violence. the threat of violent extremism does not originate from a single source, but a diverse range of groups and individuals who either actively participate in or who support violent extremist activities. For this reason, the Prevent element of the strategy focuses primarily on building partnerships with groups and individuals in Canadian communities. Working closely with local-level partners will help foster a better understanding of preventative and intervention methods to stop the process of radicalization leading to violence. two examples of Prevent initiatives, which seek to promote government-community collaboration include: • the Cross-Cultural roundtable on security, jointly supported by Public safety Canada and the department of Justice, which brings together leading citizens from their respective communities with extensive experience in social and cultural issues to engage with the Government on long-term national security issues; and • the rCmP’s national security Community outreach, which responds directly to the threat of radicalization leading to violent extremism through local initiatives intended to address potential political violence and to identify and address the concerns of minority communities. to effectively counter violent extremism, a culture of openness must exist between citizens and government. this will require the Government to share knowledge with Canadians about the nature of the terrorist threat in order to foster a deeper understanding of the need for particular actions. the role of law enforcement and Csis is pivotal. they can offer knowledge and analysis of the threat, which can assist governments and communities to develop more effective responses. in this way, the Prevent element requires law enforcement and Csis to develop strong capabilities in community engagement, including the enhanced language and cultural awareness skills needed to engage with diverse Canadian communities. other Government departments, such as Public safety Canada, Citizenship and immigration Canada (CiC), CsC and the department of Foreign Affairs and international trade (dFAit) also have supporting programs that directly or indirectly help mitigate the threat of violent extremism in Canada and abroad. alternative narrative some terrorist organizations have developed sophisticated propaganda and outreach strategies. terrorist groups communicate with people who are potentially susceptible to violent extremist ideology through various media, especially the internet, which has evolved as a significant forum for violent extremist communication and coordination. the Prevent element would focus on providing positive alternative narratives that emphasize the open, diverse and inclusive nature of Canadian society and seek to foster a greater sense of Canadian identity and belonging for all. Programs would be aimed at raising the public’s awareness of the threat and at empowering individuals and communities to develop and deliver messages and viewpoints that resonate more strongly than terrorist propaganda. continued... www.rnca.ca 51 Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Association Avalon Mall would like to congratulate the RNCA on such a worthwhile endeavor.

Working with international partners Under the Prevent element, Canada will continue to coordinate its efforts with like-minded countries to stabilize fragile states and limit the conditions conducive to the development of violent extremism globally. this will include the work of dFAit, the rCmP, Csis, the department of national defence and the Canadian Forces (dnd/CF) and the Canadian international development Agency. Under the United Nations Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy (2006), member states are to address the conditions conducive to the spread of terrorism by strengthening existing programs on conflict prevention, negotiation, mediation, conciliation, peacekeeping and peace building. they also emphasize initiatives that promote inter-religious and inter-cultural tolerance, reduce marginalization and promote social inclusion. dFAit has developed projects to work with communities to counter violent extremism in regions of concern, and to promote democratic values.
detectpurpose to detect the activities of individuals and organizations who may pose a terrorist threat. to counter the terrorist threat, knowledge is required on the terrorists themselves, their capabilities and the nature of their plans. it is also necessary to identify who supports their activities. Canada does this through investigation, intelligence operations and analysis, which can also lead to criminal prosecutions. detection requires strong intelligence capacity and capabilities, as well as a solid understanding of the strategic drivers of the threat environment, and extensive collaboration and information sharing with domestic and international partners. desired ouTcomes 1. terrorist threats are identified in a timely fashion. 2. robust and comprehensive detection of terrorist activity and effective alerting systems are in place. 3. information is shared effectively, appropriately and proactively within Canada, with key allies and non-traditional partners. continued...

www.rnca.ca 54 ...continued The sTraTegY prevent, detect, deny and respond programs and acTiviTies For effective detection, Canada must have strong capabilities for the collection, analysis and dissemination of usable intelligence. collection the primary Government of Canada collection organizations are Csis, the Communications security establishment Canada (CseC) and the rCmP. Csis and the rCmP use a full range of collection methods. CseC acquires and provides foreign signals intelligence (siGint) in accordance with the Government’s intelligence priorities and provides technical and operational support to law enforcement and security intelligence agencies. other federal organizations, such as dnd/CF, dFAit, the Canada Border services Agency (CBsA), transport Canada, the Financial transactions and reports Analysis Centre (FintrAC), and the Charities directorate of the Canada revenue Agency (CrA) also collect information in support of their primary responsibilities, which is important in establishing a broader counter- terrorism intelligence picture. For these organizations the exchange of information with domestic and international partners is crucial. the department of Finance is currently developing options to enhance the exchange of intelligence between FintrAC and its federal partners. in addition, FintrAC contributes to the prevention and deterrence of terrorist financing by ensuring compliance with the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (PCmltFA). millions of financial transaction reports are sent to FintrAC each year by banks, credit unions and other financial intermediaries, resulting in financial intelligence that assists in the investigation and prosecution of money laundering, terrorist activity financing and other threats to the security of Canada. these measures strengthen Canada’s financial system by deterring individuals from using it to carry out terrorist financing or other criminal activity. to further strengthen Canada’s anti-terrorist financing regime, an illicit Financing Advisory Committee comprised of several federal partners has been developed to identify illicit financing threats from abroad and to develop targeted measures to safeguard Canada’s financial and national security interests. in order to detect and address risks to the charitable sector, the Charities directorate of the CrA reviews applications and conducts audits, as well as collects and analyzes multisource intelligence. it also exchanges information with Canadian intelligence and law enforcement partners in compliance with the Income Tax Act, the Charities Registration (Security Information) Act, and the PCmltFA. A number of Detect initiatives promote partnership and cooperation in collection. For example, the rCmP: • leads integrated national security enforcement teams (insets), based in Vancouver, toronto, ottawa and montreal, which bring together federal, provincial and municipal police and intelligence resources to collect, share and analyze information in support of criminal investigations and threat assessments;

Collection also occurs at the border. through its immigration security screening program, CBsA, in collaboration with Csis, can detect the movement of potential subjects of interest as they apply for temporary or permanent residence, or refugee status. information provided by Csis facilitates CiC and CBsA in their efforts to assess the admissibility of these individuals under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (irPA). CBsA also plays a role in the monitoring of cross-border currency flows, and can seize unreported currency flows suspected of being the proceeds of crime or related to terrorist financing. Collection activities also occur outside Canada. For example, CseC produces and disseminates foreign siGint to support government decision making in several areas, such as national security. Csis conducts security intelligence collection and operations abroad in support of its mandate, and maintains strong relationships with foreign agencies with which it regularly exchanges information on potential threats to the security of Canada. dnd/CF can provide strategic reconnaissance to collect or verify information in support of other government departments. through the broad range of contacts in its overseas network, dFAit assesses social, economic, security and political developments that help define a global threat environment. the rCmP carries out extraterritorial investigations of terrorist activity when committed against a Canadian citizen or by a Canadian citizen abroad. Achieving the desired results under Detect requires cooperation between security intelligence agencies, and federal, provincial, territorial and municipal law enforcement. it also involves international cooperation with close allies. this includes Canada’s traditional allies, such as nAto, interPol and eUroPol, but will also involve increasing interaction with nontraditional partners Canada has less history in dealing with. analysis once information is collected, it must be analyzed to produce intelligence.

Csis combines the information they collect themselves with information from other sources to provide intelligence assessments on terrorist threats. FintrAC provides strategic financial intelligence and tactical disclosures to the security and intelligence community. Financial intelligence includes analysis of trends, patterns and typologies, and provides a detailed picture of suspicious monetary movements, establishing complex links between individuals, businesses and accounts, in support of law enforcement investigations and prosecutions of terrorism related offences. the rCmP also prepares tactical and strategic assessments in support of rCmP operations and planning, and contributes to overall Government of Canada assessment efforts through participation in PCo iAs and the integrated terrorism Assessment Centre (itAC). itAC provides comprehensive and timely assessments of the terrorist threat to Canadian interests at home and abroad that integrate intelligence from across departments and agencies and from external partners. itAC is a government resource staffed by federal representatives from a wide range of federal government institutions. Wide department and agency representation provides itAC with strong institutional expertise, as well as access to the information holdings of their home organizations. dissemination An effective approach to counter-terrorism requires that the intelligence resulting from collection and analysis activities be shared promptly with those who need it. For this reason, information sharing arrangements have been developed to disseminate threat information: • within the Government of Canada; • between the Government of Canada and provinces and territories; • between the Government of Canada and specific sectors and owners of critical infrastructure; and • with international partners. it is important to note the role of three operations centres in this context: • the Government operations Centre (GoC), housed at Public safety Canada, is a Government of Canada asset which, on behalf of the Government of Canada, supports response coordination across government and for other key national players in response to emerging or occurring events affecting the national interest; • marine security operations Centres (msoCs) feature the co-location of five core Canadian federal partners, for the purpose of collecting and sharing information on the marine environment to create a maritime domain awareness picture; and • dFAit’s operations Centre monitors world events, alerts senior governmental officials to items of national interest and supports interdepartmental task force groups. it may also become the focal point for communication with affected missions and other government departments and agencies in incidents abroad. continued... www.rnca.ca 59 Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Association Congratulations! ...to the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Association on the publication of your 25th Annual Community Guide

Federal departments and agencies are responsible for developing emergency management plans for risks in their areas of accountability, consistent with guidance from Public safety Canada. other plans and protocols, which are annexed to the FerP, provide for responses to specific situations. examples include the marine event response Protocol and the Air incident Protocol. the FerP outlines circumstances, such as the need for federal support to deal with an emergency, where an integrated Government of Canada response is required. it sets out departmental roles in an emergency, governance and coordination structures and practical arrangements for providing information to government decision makers. Particular terrorist incidents may involve specified responses from designated agencies. For example, in accordance with the National Defence Act or as an excercise of the Crown Prerogative, the CF can be called upon to support the Government of Canada’s counterterrorism efforts and respond directly to terrorist incidents in Canada. PHAC is responsible for surveillance for diseases and events resulting from the use of CBrne agents and coordinating a public health response to a terrorist incident. Health Canada also provides monitoring services, hazard assessments, information and advisories and decontamination strategies for CBrne events. PHAC also maintains the national emergency stockpile system, which contains medical countermeasures against CBrne agents and disaster medical supplies for use in mass casualty events. integrated response – incident abroad For a terrorist or security related incident abroad, the minister of Foreign Affairs, supported by dFAit, leads Canada’s response. the Canadian response to an incident will vary depending on the nature of the incident. it might include the provision of consular assistance to Canadians overseas; financial or physical aid; or deployments of experts from the federal national security community. major events Ad hoc working groups plan and prepare for the security aspects of major events, such as the 2010 Winter olympics in British Columbia and the 2010 G8/G20 summits in ontario. these usually involve the different levels of government affected by the event, and response arrangements are tailored to the particular event in question. in addition, Health Canada is mandated to provide services to support the overall security objectives for major international events, specifically in the areas of health and safety of federal government employees, surveillance and response to radiological nuclear threats, and support to first responders in the event of a CBrne event or disease outbreak.

taking Care of ourselves, our Families our Communities responding to stressful events: Taking care of ourselves, our families and our communities natural or human-caused disasters such as earthquakes, health emergencies, terrorist attacks or acts of war challenge our coping skills, even if we only witness them on television. if they touch our lives more closely (for example, if they occur near where we live, or affect people we know) they can cause a lot of distress, fear and anxiety. We worry about our own safety, the safety of our loved ones and our community. events of this kind can also stir up memories and feelings about violent or painful events that we may have experienced in the past: the death of a family member or friend in an accident; a serious illness or injury; the loss of a job; family violence or sexual assault. And of course, the stress of a large-scale disaster can make any stressful circumstances we are currently facing more difficult to handle. it is important to be aware that stressful feelings are normal when our lives are touched by catastrophic events, and that there are steps we can take to feel better. Things to keep in mind it is important to know that: • People of all ages are strong and resilient, and most recover within a short period of time. • You have knowledge and experience that can help your family and your community cope with the stresses triggered by catastrophic events. • reassuring people about their safety and explaining what measures are being taken to protect them is an important step in helping them cope. • Parents’, caregivers’ and community leaders’ own responses to an event strongly influences children’s and community members’ ability to recover. feelings and reactions to stressful events in the wake of stressful events such as a disaster or terrorist attack our reactions can: affect us physically: We may have headaches, back pain, stomach aches, diarrhea, problems with sleeping, tightness in neck and shoulders, low energy or general tiredness, loss of appetite or tendency to eat more “comfort foods” or use more alcohol, drugs and tobacco. affect us emotionally: We may feel sad, angry, guilty, helpless, numb, confused, discouraged, worried and anxious about the future, and afraid that a similar event may reoccur. Feelings can come and go like the tides, building up then fading away, only to come back and fade away again. they can also come out of the blue when we least expect it. affect our thinking: it may be hard to concentrate, to stop thinking about the events, hard to remember day-to-day things. memories of other sad or difficult events from the past may surface. thoughts, like feelings, can also come out of the blue, while reading, talking, having a meeting, driving, etc. affect our sense of safety: We may find it hard to leave home or loved ones; we may tend to overprotect our children; or, we may be nervous about travelling by plane.
These reactions are normal in situations of stress most of us have had some of these reactions. some of us may feel them more strongly or more often than others but it is reassuring to know that these are common reactions when people experience a very stressful event. in other words, you are not alone. continued... www.rnca.ca 71 Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Association Sacred Heart Parish P.O.

www.rnca.ca 72 ...continued responding To sTressful evenTs stressful events, even major crises, are part of life. in most cases, our life experience has given us the strengths and skills we need to gradually work through our feelings and reactions. Friends and family can help. Here are some healthy ways of looking after both ourselves and one another: Taking care of ourselves • take breaks from the media reports and from thinking and talking about the events. • take time to relax and exercise. this will help decrease stress and tension and help you be more alert, sleep and eat better, and get back on track. • talk with friends, relatives, co-workers, teachers or leaders of your faith community. talk about your thoughts, feelings and reactions. Comfort one another. talking with others can make you feel less alone and help you sort out reactions to the events. remember to talk about the normal issues and pleasures of your life as well - don’t let disaster take over every conversation. • some may be quite affected by these events, others less. Patience and understanding with one another are two of the best ways to help. • Be careful about making major decisions if you are very upset. • Get back to your daily routine. do things you enjoy to help restore a sense of safety and control. • Watch what you eat. eat healthy foods. • Be physically active, doing something you enjoy. • don’t use alcohol to numb your feelings. this can set up an unhealthy pattern and can lead to more serious problems down the road. • Get a good night’s sleep. Taking care of our families • reassure family members who may be worried about their safety and about the future. • take time to talk about the events. relax together. For example, go to a movie or for a meal. remember, taking time out is not a cop-out. • everybody needs to be heard and understood. • Visit with relatives and friends. Taking care of older relatives today’s seniors are an independent, resourceful group who have weathered many storms. Catastrophic events may trigger memories of previous painful experiences. some seniors may be concerned about their safety and about the future. others may feel sad, confused and disorganized for a while. Coping may be more difficult for seniors suffering from depression, thinking and memory problems, those living alone or those with few social supports. You can help by: • Visiting older people: parents, friends, relatives, neighbours. • talking with them about their thoughts, feelings and reactions. • including them in social and recreational activities. • reassuring them that you are available should they want to talk or need help. Taking care of our communities • take part in information meetings about the events. • Attend memorials, candlelight vigils. • Attend inter-religious events. • in the case of terrorism or war, don’t let racism poison your community.

On November 9th, 2015, Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Constable Stephanie Pelley and her partner were dispatched to a call of a possible woman in distress in the area of Flatrock, Newfoundland and Labrador. Constable Pelley responded quickly by approaching the frigid water while her partner retrieved flotation devices from their patrol vehicle; however, she quickly realized that the strong waves and her duty belt would prevent her from reaching the woman who was moving further away from shore. Constable Pelley hastily returned to shore, where she was met by Constable Charley Torres who had overheard the call on his radio. With the distraught woman barely staying above water by clinging to a rock in the ocean, both Police Officers realized that time was limited and that they would have to remove their vests and duty belts and enter into the frigid ocean.
While other officers on scene retrieved flotation devices and rope, Constables Pelley and Torres courageously tapped into their experienced swimming abilities and police training to reach the woman amidst the high waves and lack of available footing. As they realized that they would be unable to get the woman back to shore by themselves, they pinned her to a rock using their bodies until assistance was available. While waiting for help, their bodies were engulfed by the ocean’s water with each crash of waves against the rock.
Constables Pelley and Torres were eventually able to get the woman safely back to shore through the help of other first responders, and she was taken to the hospital for the treatment of her injuries. This successful rescue and return of the woman to land is due largely to the quick and courageous actions of Constables Pelley and Torres. The waters of Newfoundland and Labrador in November are tumultuous and bitterly cold; this woman would have likely faced a different outcome that day had it not been for fearless response of these two officers. Their actions that day truly exemplified what it means to go above and beyond the call of duty.
Though this was an undeniable act of bravery for the two officers, they remained humble amidst the awards and recognition for their rescue. During an interview with a local newspaper the day after the rescue, Constable Pelley noted that it was a rescue such as this that made her say “That’s what I signed up for.”
In November 2015, Constables Pelley and Torres were awarded the 2016 Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Association Awards of Excellence “Medal of Valor” for their bravery. Medal of Valor
