This was a sad reminder of a similar terrible event in March, 2005. Four RCMP members were killed near Mayerthorpe, Alberta, a small town northwest of Edmonton. The memorial parade for those four Mounties included over 12,000 members of the RCMP, municipal police services from across North America, soldiers from 3rd PPCLI (Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry) and other Army units stationed in Edmonton, as well as fire services and other emergency first responders. I was there - the parade went down the street right in front of my house. It took over 2 hours to pass us where we stood at the end of our driveway. The flag in our front yard was at half-mast, as was the Alberta provincial colour next to it. There was a cold wind, and the flags stood straight out, so it was not a gentle breeze. Being March, we still had snow on the ground. Many members of police services from the United States had only light uniforms on, and no gloves. My late mother, 76 at the time, had anticipated this, and had used her many contacts in the city to gather several hundred pairs of mittens from clothing and department stores and wholesale suppliers. We passed all of those out to people in the parade who had come with bare hands. I'm told that altogether more than 18,000 people crowded into the sports complex arena at the University of Alberta, just across the street. This video gives a partial idea of just how long the memorial parade was. The video of the memorial for those killed in Moncton was an eerie echo of 2005.

[@lorenmcleod2816]

You may choose to look a little deeper into the reality of this police gang, the atrocities they have perpetrated against First Nations people and many many other citizens, get past the propaganda and "image grooming" they do on a regular basis to deflect from the truth of their misconduct daily. The former commissioner(Paulsen) of the RCMP has openly admitted that the organization is completely dysfunctional, racist, sexist, (check out the class action lawsuit filed by over 500 female officers in the RCMP!) "...needs to address the ongoing problems with being honest and forthright, the lack of transparency needs to be examined and rectified..." Get past the shiny badges and flashy costumes and see what we citizens must endure everyday with these miscreants. I definitely can assure you, most Canadians don't "t "...how Canadians everywhere loved their RC Mounted Police..." anything but. they are an out of control gang that preys upon innocent citizens daily, they are just public servants that have forgotten their true role in society, simply look at the evidence, it is readily available via the internet. Hopefully Greenland isn't having the same or similar problems with policing in that country. It is always tragic when any person loses their life to violence but please remember, this police gang is the most dangerous gang walking the streets of Canada today.

[@michaelb9529]

@@lorenmcleod2816 Fred Quilt is all I have to say. For a service that is that old and covers every type of policing in a large vast and complicated country such as I if you really look into the amount of complaints is incredibly low. They even used to run the Security Service before CSIS, I'll give to you that was an RCMP mess of epic proportions. Day to day they still do an outstanding job be it in large cities like Surrey almost half a million people to 1 or 2 man detachments that have patrol areas the size of some countries. Marine sections that cover the coasts and the great lakes. Highway and freeway patrol. Integrated homicide units. They run BC's Combined Forces anti gang and major crime units. Air services, both rotary and fixed wing. Nation Security in partnership with CSIS. The took down the Toronto 18 with out a single injury. Dog sections everywhere, financial crime units, you name it from everything the FBI, ATF and DEA do to remote arctic patrol areas where you're all by yourself, to major city policing. Plus an agency that has such an extensive history (created in 1873) is very hard to change and is hesitant to change. Same with the CF, and other services be them provincial, municipal, EMS or Fire-Rescue. Go walk in their boot before fabricating crap that makes it appear like the do drive bys every day. Had a RCMP member come by my late brothers how last year. I had found an old .303 (mint condition) so I called the RCMP and met them out front advised them that the rifle is cleared. They like the weapon so much they offered to keep in their exhibits room until I got the paperwork to retrieve the weapon. 30 a paramedic, 8 in North Vancouver (covered by the RCMP) so I had tons to interactions with them under good and very bad situation and not one single problem/issue. Its always easy from the cheap seats. True professionals all the way.

[@lorenmcleod2816]

@@michaelb9529 Normally I wouldn't reply to such boot licking however your response is well constructed and in fairness, deserves a viable response. First and foremost, I have been an attorney for 40 years, mostly trial work. I have interviewed, examined and cross examined literally thousands of officers over the years. I did my primary university thesis on the formation(Royal Canadian Northwest Mounted Police). I have been called nine times as an "expert" witness on various matters concerning police misconduct and crimes. I believe my credentials provide some reasonable insight into this "cultish" organization. There is no doubt they have done many good deeds over the years but those good deeds are blighted by the vast number of cases of misconduct and crimes. It isn't just a "few bad apples," it is the brainwashing and mindset of the entire organization, from top to bottom(eg: hundreds of female officers and former officers suing in a class action suit currently about many discriminatory actions used against them while employed in a "toxic environment"[quote from former RCMP Commissioner, Paulsen]). Lying under oath is probably the most common misconduct but the thread goes all the way to murder and all crimes in between. Please don't forget officers are trained formally to lie(eg: the Mr. Big operations[btw, completely illegal technique in the US] I have caught hundreds of them lying under oath, if successful at prevaricating, often ruining peoples lives sometimes for a lifetime. In essence, they have often become a law unto themselves, especially those out in remote regions. Ask most any indigenous person their perspective on policing in Canada and you will most likely receive a very negative response both currently and historically. My objective is not to disparage or tear down but to expose the serious problems within the policing community in Canada today. If we continue to whitewash and cover up(done very frequently), the difficulties will continue and more than likely worsen if we do not hold them to honest account. You say"...Fred Quilt is all I have to say..." I have read both inquests into his death, in their entirety, have you? Just to stay relatively current (the Quilt matter was in 1972) Robert Dziekanski is all I have to say, murdered by 3 RCMP members in 2007 at YVR Richmond. Watch the video of the Braidwood inquiry into the matter and watch 3 of 4 officers lie and eventually be convicted of perjury(Monte Robinson as example).This is not an extreme example, do some research and I believe you'll be surprised at the plethora of problems they create on a daily basis and quite often get away with their misdeeds. "... police...the most dangerous gangs on the streets of Canada today... " Dr. Michael Jackson, Professor of Law, UBC. Hopefully, you'll take a second look at the amount of evidence easily available to anyone wanting to know the whole truth and nothing but. All the police propaganda won't change these dysfunctional organizations, they are, after all, just public servants we need to rein in.

As a member trained in the 1960's I am embarrassed at the so called marching shown here. Several out of step and lines were not straight, horrible. They just seemed to be out for a stroll.

[@johnpatterson1575]

An impressive turnout for a very sad day. I know everyone did their best to honour these fallen officers. I have never seen so many RCMP officers on parade. If I could I would send them all back to Depot until they learned how to March. I know it is difficult without a drummer, but the mounties were awful. Every second one was out of step. As a Canadian and former member of the armed forces I expect better especially on such a solem occasion.

[@michaelb9529]

The lack of excellent marching went out the door back in the 90s when things turned politically correct. They have realized the error and are trying to reverse the issue even doing inhouse refresh drill. Sergeant Majors have been brought back and Depot is toughening up again. Also many of those marching might quit senior and not been drilled in years.

[@michaelb9529]

One of the other problems is the cadence is based on the pipe band where traditional RCMP is based on cavalry drill which fairly fast. They should have ordered the parade to lower arms to sides, it would have looked better and more appropriate, still great job considering how fast it takes to organize things like this. I was on a team for 2 paramedics and 2 civilians that died in a mine accident years ago. It was a very small town, not easy to get to or many supplies (material, flags, flowers, stage risers, PA systems, drill practice, hotel/motel arrangements, shuttles to the next town that actually had an air port, rental cars to gather things.) Anyway pulled it off, 2 funerals for the paramedics and one big memorial with a 1.8 km parade (all down hill try it sometime) then into the hockey arena. about 2800 on parade, the entire town showed up at the arena where all 4 were given a very dignified service all equally. Lt Governor and the Premier were there. Then a food spread, then the wake began..... As for Moncton I see even BC Ambulance Service sent 2 members from their Honour Guard
