This weekend I was in Toronto for the annual RCMP Gala at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. The event is put on by the RCMP Foundation to raise money to help out kids in need all across the country. It was good to see some old friends that I have been shooting with for years and to be inspired by the stories of how people are trying to make a difference.

Here are some of my favorites from the evening.
