Nova Scotia RCMP - RCMP division serving Nova Scotia
Isn’t that like claiming New Brunswick Tim Hortons and Nova Scotia Tim Hortons are different groups?
Like, provincial allotment of the same force seems to be … the same force. Same training, same low pay, etc. A double-double in Moncton should closely resemble a double-double from Truro.
And, you’ll find, one of them has WAY different training. PER CAPITA, I’ll bet one group has the least actual proved charges of unprofessionalism, but with the size of the group they’ll appear in the news by name so much more. If one group is ten times the size of the others, and has 1/5th the problems, that’s still gonna see double the reports in the news; and perception will be affected.

The Toronto police had that scandal with the bar in their HQ so I think that eliminates them as a contender
