The performance is being done in partnership with the City of Moncton as a way to thank residents for their support during the past year.

Justin Bourque murdered constables Doug Larche, Fabrice Gevaudan and Dave Ross, and wounded constables Eric Dubois and Darlene Goguen when he set out on a rampage that targeted police.

Bourque, 25, was sentenced to life in prison with no eligibility for parole for 75 years in October after pleading guilty to three counts of first-degree murder and two counts of attempted murder.
