Manny Mann, the chief officer of the special enforcement unit, says the warning follows a similar decision by the Vancouver Police Department on Monday to publicly name six alleged gang members.
Three of the men listed in the warning by the anti-gang unit were also on the list released by Vancouver police.
The unit says in a news release on Tuesday that police believe the 11 men may be targets for future violence and anyone near them may be at risk.
The statement says police agencies throughout the Lower Mainland are aware of several conflicts involving numerous crime groups that have led to a spate of murders and attempted murders recently in public places.
The 11 men identified pose a significant threat to public safety because of their "ongoing nexus to violence" says the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit of B.C.
