Today is a big step. This fitness test is part of the momentum created at our “What Is Possible at OPS” event at the Château Laurier, where so many of you came out to explore careers and opportunities within the Ottawa Police Service. For those running today, this is more than a fitness test. It represents discipline, commitment, and the courage to step forward toward a career in policing. Reaching Level 7 is the standard but showing up today already says a lot about who you are and the path you're choosing. Remember... Stay focused. Control your breathing. Dig deep once you hit level 5, it is all a mental game at this point... The recruiting team is cheering you on. Good luck today and we look forward to seeing many of you take the next step in the process. Take a moment and comment below to wish everyone luck!!!! 🎉

Thank you for joining us last night at the Château Laurier! We were proud to welcome so many individuals exploring what’s possible at the Ottawa Police Service. From civilian roles to communications, special constables, and policing pathways - the evening was about opening doors and starting conversations. Now we have one question for you: What was the number one thing you learned? Was it something about the application process? A conversation with a unit member? The 30 Forward Initiative? A pathway you hadn’t considered before? We would genuinely value your response. Simply reply in the comments and share your biggest takeaway. For those interested in becoming a police officer, and you are ready to move forward with the fitness test, remember: 👉 Send Cst. Abid Nasim an email at: [email protected] to secure your spot for March 7 shuttle run. You will receive an email with your timing, location and waivers. This is not a practice session - it is for those ready to apply. Thank you again for taking the time to invest in your future!
