Cops tops in country

Burnaby's unshorn cops were the best in Canada.

Burnaby's unshorn cops were the best in Canada.

With the calendar turning to December, the Burnaby Fuzz RCMP members who grew moustaches for Movember and prostate cancer awareness hosted a wrapup event at the main detachment of the Burnaby RCMP on Dec. 1.

The big fundraiser was Const. Greg Carwithen, who single-handedly raised more than $11,000. Carwithen's father was diagnosed with prostate cancer, and the son campaigned on behalf of his dad.

The entire team raised more than $18,000, the biggest amount raised by a police agency in the country.
