Am I proud? I'd be crazy to say “proud”, but not surprised.
Not surprised, but we knew there were issues from 2018. When you look at the numbers before COVID and after COVID, there's a significant difference. I've said this. I truly believe that the organization relied on people wanting to join the RCMP pre-COVID, and when COVID hit, with different career aspirations, we saw a dip. I don't think we came out of the gates fast enough.
