I'd like to use these lines as my way to say a big thank you to the entire staff at MCPA for their work towards a safe city. Especially, my gratitude to Ian Cunningham, Hugh MacLellan, Ashley Lyons and Grant Clark for their assistance and availability regarding our Neighbourhood Watch Program. A special and heartfelt thank you to Cst. Sean Piper from Peel Regional Police / Crime Prevention Services, for his always-prompt assistance and expertise in matters related to safety in our complex. His professionalism, patience and support were priceless at all times. Without him there wouldn't be a Watch Program in our neighbourhood. A token of appreciation goes also to Paul Gross and Marcelo Calbucci from Sampa for their technical support to build this site and for keeping it up and running. Keeping you informed
