On October 16, 2023, the Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) held a Change of Command Ceremony at Grand Valley Institution in the Ontario Region. This occasion marked the change in command from outgoing Warden Dave Dunk to the incoming Warden Angela Beecher.
The ceremony reinforces the responsibility of leadership in the role of Warden. It represents the symbolic passing of responsibility, authority, and accountability from one correctional leader to another.
This ceremony is an important tradition for CSC. It reaffirms the incoming leader's pledge to support CSC's mission and contribute to the safety and security of the public, employees, and offenders.
CSC is proud of the dedicated staff members at the Grand Valley Institution who work tirelessly every day to make a difference in the lives of offenders. Their professionalism and commitment contribute to public safety for Canadians.
