The article contains characters who have appeared on the Canadian drama/action television series Flashpoint.
The Strategic Response Unit, modeled after the Toronto Police Service's Emergency Task Force unit, is responsible for high-risk situations that cannot be resolved by regular police officers such as armed criminals, explosives, hostage rescue and counter-terrorism including support to other police officers when requested. There are 5 teams in the SRU, Team 1 being the one mainly featured in the show.
Boss
Sergeant Gregory "Greg" Parker is the Sergeant and leader of Team One. He is also Team 1's main crisis negotiator. As such, he prefers that situations be resolved through dialogue instead of lethal force. He learned the art of negotiation when he was able to survive a hard life under his strict father. The stressful nature of his job took a toll on him and resulted in him turning to alcohol, resulting in his divorce and estrangement from his wife and son Dean. His ex-wife gained full custody of Dean and they moved to Dallas, Texas. She was still bitter and bans her ex-husband from seeing Dean for some time. In the Season 1 episode "Backwards Day" it is revealed that he had just seen his son for the first time in eight years, regretting that he did not do so earlier. Dean eventually goes back to Toronto on his own volition to ask his father to stop contacting him but witnesses Greg and the SRU on a call and realizes the importance of his father's job. Father and son reconnect after Dean moves back to Toronto in Season 3.
Greg cares not only for his team, but for the lives of the innocents and those subjects who are about to make a mistake that will ruin an otherwise good life. He often puts the blame for a failed attempt to save a life solely on himself, something Ed frequently reminds him of. A recurring theme for him is that he always reminds his teammates to "keep the peace" during any SRU-led operation.
In the two-part series finale, "Keep the Peace", Greg is shot in the leg as he is holding off a mad bomber while trying to defuse his bomb. His leg wound forces him to retire from SRU, and a year later, he is teaching at the police academy. In a deleted scene, Dean and Ed's son Clark are both cadets at the police academy.
