Thank You to the Toronto Police Service

At Avante Security, we see firsthand the commitment, professionalism, and courage demonstrated by the members of the Toronto Police Service every single day.

While most of the city sleeps, officers continue to answer calls, respond to emergencies, investigate crimes, support victims, and place themselves in difficult and dangerous situations to help keep Toronto safe. Their work demands resilience, sacrifice, and an unwavering commitment to the communities they serve.

We are especially grateful for the ongoing collaboration and support the Toronto Police Service provides to private security teams like Avante Security. Through communication, coordination, and shared commitment, we can work together to help protect neighbourhoods, families, businesses, and vulnerable members of our community.

Too often, the work of policing is only noticed in moments of crisis. Today, we simply want to recognize the people behind the badge and say thank you.

Thank you for your service.
Thank you for your professionalism.
Thank you for continuing to stand watch over our city every day.

From all of us at Avante Security, we extend our sincere appreciation to the women and men of the Toronto Police Service for their work in support of our communities.

Avante Security was proud to provide protective services for the “Eyes Wide Open” event in Huntsville, supporting the safety and security of keynote speaker Timea E. Nagy, event organizers, and attendees.

Hosted at the Active Living Centre and presented by organizations including Timea’s Cause Inc. and Muskoka Victim Services, the evening brought together families, community leaders, advocates, and residents for an important and informative discussion focused on human trafficking awareness, online luring, and community safety.

Events like these play an important role in education, prevention, and protecting vulnerable individuals. Avante Security was honoured to support an event dedicated to awareness, advocacy, and public safety.

Thank you to Keith Barker and Michael Cole for the opportunity to be involved in such a meaningful initiative.

This May 4–10, Canadian Mental Health Association invites us to come together. Not through big statements, but through simple actions that matter. A message. A call. Sitting with someone and listening without distraction.

In a time where it’s easy to feel disconnected, choosing to reach out can make a real difference. For someone else, and for yourself. Connection strengthens mental health.

Strong communities are built through collaboration.

Today, the Avante Security team was on site at Toronto Police Service 33 Division’s Crime Prevention Expo, working alongside local partners to share real resources, expert insight, and practical tools that help keep people, families, and neighbourhoods safer.

From prevention strategies to real-world response capabilities, these conversations matter. They strengthen awareness, build trust, and reinforce a shared commitment to safety across the community.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to connect with us today.

Some signs sit. Ours works.

Every Avante property is backed by live monitoring and rapid response, with real operators ready to move the moment something changes.

That small detail on the lawn carries weight.

Avante’s sponsored U12 Girls Lakers delivered. A hard-fought 40–32 win powered by relentless energy, drive, and teamwork. Strong performance from start to finish. Great job, Lakers.

Thirty years ago, Avante Security was built on a simple belief.
Security could be done differently. More personal. More intelligent. More accountable.

Today, that belief is shared by every person in our organization and every client who trusts us with what matters most.

On April 16th, 2026, we came together to celebrate Avante at 30.
An evening that reflected who we are and how far we’ve come.

An incredible room filled with clients, colleagues, partners, family, and friends.
This milestone is not about time. It’s about people.

To our clients, thank you for placing your trust in us every single day. That responsibility drives everything we do.

To our team, both in the room and those on duty, in the field and inside our Control Centre, you are the standard. You are the reason we deliver on our promise.
From where we started to where we are today, one thing has never changed.

We continue to build.
We continue to improve.
We continue to push forward.

Thirty years in, and we are just getting started.
