About the OPPA and History of the OPPA
Welcome to the Ontario Provincial Police Association (OPPA)
web site.

The OPPA represents all civilian and non-commissioned uniform members of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) on labour and contractual issues. Employees of the OPP holding the rank of Inspector and other senior supervisory roles are represented by the Commissioned Officers Associations (COA).

There are approximately 5,579 uniform members and 2,626 civilian members who belong to the Association.


The OPPA was officially incorporated as a non-profit organization on March 3, 1954. Throughout its existence the OPPA's philosophy has been "members serving members” and to advance the interests of its members in every manner.

While collective bargaining and labour contract administration are a priority for the Association, an equally important role for the Association is to promote a healthy and safe work environment for all members.

The Association, the largest single Police Association of its kind in Canada, also presents policy briefs and lobbies Municipal, Provincial and Federal Governments to ensure the voice of front-line members is heard.

Imagine if you have been living with a debilitating condition for several years and many assessment and treatment options in Ontario and Quebec were attempted but unsuccessful. Specialists tell you that no other medical treatment is available.

Kim has been suffering from a heart condition that has been extremely hard to control since her first pregnancy in 1993. After numerous referrals and seeing several doctors and specialists throughout Ontario and Quebec, she has been unsuccessful in finding a cure.

2010 NHL HOCKEY DREAM DRAW
DRAW DATE: FEBRUARY 2010
July 21, 2009

The Hockey Draw is a tried and proven concept that has successfully generated funds for drug prevention for over a decade. The program is now poised to expand to include interested minor hockey programs. In my opinion, as a former NHL goaltender and an active OPP officer, playing hockey is the original drug prevention program in Canada. Hockey has always been and will continue to be a positive alternative to drugs and violence for all who play.

The NHL Alumni Hockey Dream Draw will build a lasting legacy of much needed renewable support for minor hockey programs and families across Canada for years to come. It is our intention to develop positive partnerships, which will help support and grow the game of hockey at the grass roots level.
