Paramedic is one of 80 facing more than 270 total charges continued from p.1 Nelson is listed as an Advanced Care Paramedic and was on Ontario's Sunshine List in 2014 and last year. The list forces taxpayer-funded organizations to publicly reveal the names and salaries of employees collecting annual salaries of $100,000 or more. Nelson was named as one of 80 people facing more than 270 charges by the OPP in a joint-forces investigation with other police forces in and around the GTA and agencies such as the RCMP , Canada Border Services Agency and United States Homeland Security Investigations. It was described by the OPP as a provincewide investigation by members of the Provincial Strategy to Protect Children from Sexual Abuse and Exploitation on the Internet. "The most fundamental responsibility of any society is to protect its children. Every child has the right to be nurtured and the right to be safe. "The Provincial Strategy demonstrates the success that police services worldwide can achieve when working together and sharing our best practices and information," OPP Chief Superintendent Don Bell said at last month's news conference announcing details of the investigation. Bell added that these investigations, which involve children in "pictures of every imaginable sex act" being available to everyone online, are a top priority for police. A total of 174 search warrants were executed, resulting in 274 charges against 80 people, including one youth who cannot be identified under terms of the Youth Criminal Justice Act. Charges include sexual assault, child luring, drugs and weapons and a range of child pornography charges. In addition, 20 victims were identified during the investigations and referred to appropriate community-based resources for assistance, police said. Drug and weapons-related charges were also laid. Police say the investigation uncovered human trafficking and officers were also able to ensure the safety of nine people who had been working in the sex trade as a minor or against their will, including 14, 15, and 16-year-olds. 3 | Thursday, May 12, 2016 | OAKVILLE BEAVER | www.insideHALTON.com inside today's Spotlight Beaver Trails Health Beaver www.insideHALTON.com 6 40 42 Arts Sports Classified 45 48 53 For home delivery & customer service call 905-631-6095, 5300 Harvester Rd., Burlington New subscriptions call 905-631-6095 or subscribe online at www.oakvillebeaver.com Ashley Furniture, Pharmasave, Metro, M&M Meats, RMP Athletic Locker, IDA, Rabba, Rona, Real Canadian Superstore, No Frills, Lowes, Softmoc, Tel-Dat Accessories Inc., Food Basics, Smatack Inc., Stone-Link Corp., 2001 Audio Video, Terra Greenhouses, National Sports, Home Outfitters, Sears, Sheridan Nurseries, JYSK Bed & Bath, Longo's, Walmart, My Insurance Broker Corp., Walking on a Cloud, Canadian Tire, Toys R Us, Sam's Outdoors Inc., Hudson's Bay Co., Leon's Furniture, Centennial Windows, The Brick, Rexall Pharma Plus, EB Games, Best Buy, Home Depot, Michael's, Canadia Tire, Shoppers Drug Mart, Brick Mattress, Sobeys, Adidas/Reebok, Guardian Drugs, B&H Magazine ADDITION YOU ALWAYS WANTED IN JUST IMAGINE THAT *All flyers not necessarily delivered to all homes 5 DAYS!

By the time you hire a professional, go from conceptual drawings to final working drawings, finding a contractor and or trades, get prices, re-drawing and re pricing, then actually building the addition the better part of a year has gone by. Then there is the issue of re- landscaping after it is all done.
