The Media Relations Section plays a key role within the Police Service in terms of building and maintaining the public's understanding and support of our services. Our goal is to provide timely and accurate information to the public, via the media. This is done by issuing news releases, holding news conferences, responding to media inquiries and arranging interviews with our officers and personnel.

In 2006, the Media Relations Section was restructured to reflect the increased demands on the Ottawa Police Service for media relations and the evolution of the news business.

Media Relations spokesperson:

Cst. Marc Soucy has been with the Ottawa Police Service since 1988.  During his career, he worked in several sections including Patrol, Sexual Assault/Child Abuse, Community Policing, and School Resource Officer.  Marc joined the Media Relations Section in March 2011 and he looks forward to new challenges before him.
