Both of them were kind and generous with their time and really set an example of what an officer should be. Horses can draw the public out to speak with police better than any vehicle can and it would be a huge loss not to have these two officers continue to be ambassadors for the Niagara Region Police.

How many people on the street will walk up and approach an officer in a car to talk? Officers on horseback are APPROACHABLE to the general public.

Even if they are ceremonial in nature as you say they are, isn't it good to maintain some tradition and order at the same time?

I would argue they are not just cermonial. They cost less than a K-9 unit and can provide a broader scope of abilities for the public.

Your decision to disband the mounted unit is a mistake. I hope you realize it in time to correct it.

I'm sorry but for all the pleasure it gave us to see the horses once a week during the spring/summer/fall - I think it was worth it!!!!
