Aaron shares his journey from the Canadian Special Operations Regiment to the Toronto Police Service, revealing the personal challenges he faced during his transition and how these experiences inspired the creation of the MVWP.


Discover how this innovative program, developed in collaboration with fellow officer Jeremy Burns, aims to bridge the gap in support services for military veterans in crisis. Aaron explains how the MVWP provides police officers across Canada with crucial training on military culture, common struggles faced by veterans, and effective de-escalation techniques. This training is now available for free to all Canadian police services through the Canadian Police Knowledge Network.

Learn about the program’s national and international impact, with implementation in every Canadian province and territory, and growing interest from the United States and Australia. Aaron’s story highlights the transformative power of the MVWP, not only for the veterans it serves but also for the police officers who receive this vital training.
