Toronto Police Association pushes tougher sentences for young offenders

October 13, 2025

The head of Canada’s largest municipal police union is pushing the federal government for tough-on-crime measures, including stiffer sentences for young offenders, after a series of violent crimes allegedly involving youth suspects.

Toronto Police Association (TPA) president Clayton Campbell, whose union represents nearly 6,000 officers, says recent homicides illustrate the need to overhaul the legislation that governs how the criminal-justice system treats youth who commit violent crimes.
