Mort en service focuses on people who dedicate their lives to public service—police officers, firefighters, soldiers, RCMP officers, prison guards and how many others—and who lose their lives while on duty. Even if they knew that their job was risky, they never thought it would kill them.

Using testimonials from family and colleagues, this docu-series brings into focus the tragic events that led to the deaths of these dedicated people.

Intrigue, suspense and emotion are the order of the day, since these stories feature characters in a class of their own, who died in exceptional circumstances.
