With trust collapsing in the RCMP, some call for ‘broken force’ to be rebuilt. Revelations during the Nova Scotia mass shooting inquiry are fuelling a distrust in Canada’s national police force that some experts suggest has been building for years.
Harry Bond is blunt in his assessment of the RCMP’s role on the night his mother and father died in the Nova Scotia mass shooting — and of the force’s potential to reform in the future.
And he said the explanations for these and a multitude of other shortcomings — including failures to probe early reports of domestic violence by the perpetrator — never seemed to begin with an admission that the force’s rural policing has failed to adapt to modern times. A poll commissioned by the force earlier this year showed only 51 per cent of Canadians believe the Mounties are honest, a drop of five percentage points from the year before. Only a third of Canadians feel the RCMP treat visible minorities and Indigenous people fairly.
“It’s all starting to collapse,” Merlo said. “I feel bad for the first responders, the ones that are doing the work.”
