RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki faced tough questions in Colwood after five Prince George officers were charged related to a 2017 death
Canada’s top cop was asked about several high-profile controversies involving the RCMP as she joined more than 200 former and retired Mounties on the West Shore to celebrate BC RCMP Appreciation Day.
But it wasn’t all celebratory. Lucki fielded questions from media on everything from police brutality to underrepresentation of minorities. The RCMP is competing with departments like the Victoria Police, which in December 2021 publicized a signing bonus of $20,000 to experienced officers. Lucki says the force is working hard to represent the people it serves, with women making up 22 per cent of the force and what she says is a growing number of minority groups.
