Hello! I am Tyler Ladouceur

This is my Professional Portfolio!

Personal Background & Story

I'm a Dean’s List graduate of the Police Foundations program and currently an Honours student in the Bachelor of Public Safety – Pathway to Police Foundations at Algonquin College. I’m originally from Shawville, Quebec, and moved to Ottawa to pursue my passion for public safety. I’ve always been driven to protect and serve Canadians, both at home and abroad, through principled and proactive law enforcement. What makes me stand out is how naturally I connect with people — I’m easy to talk to and build strong relationships quickly.

My Interest in Public Safety

While there are personal experiences that shaped my interest in public safety, one memorable moment has been volunteering at the annual Santa Claus Parade with my family through Front Line Credit Union. Each year, I’ve had the chance to see firsthand the impact first responders have on the community and to speak with them directly. Hearing their stories and passion for serving Canadians truly sparked and deepened my own interest in pursuing a career in public safety.

Showcase of my Skills

Emergency Management - IMS Response Planning

I was invited by Mario D'Angelo to do a two day course on the Incident Management System 200 at Algonquin College. In the course, we were tasked with taking a map of a small community and apply the IMS framework we learned about in the course. I utilized the IMS framework to develop a plan among sectors to respond to human, technological, and environmental disasters. Applying IMS frameworks in various scenarios along with what I learnt throughout the course allowed me to develop a skill in IMS response planning.

Research & Analysis - Presentation

During my final year of Police Foundations at Algonquin College, my program was hosting a networking event. My task was to develop a research paper on an any issue relating to criminal or social justice and then present my findings. I developed an 8 page research paper on how a guaranteed universal income (GUI) can reduce homelessness. I then prepared a presentation and presented my findings to various people at the networking event. This resulted in me building a proficiency in research and analysis as well as developing my skills in presentation and public speaking.
