Federal policing, as I see it, is a specialized job. You need people with more education and more training; who don't move around and change from one function to another; who develop their expertise in one area and build on that; who have leadership; and who have people who can come in and support them, or replace them when they retire. I think that's very different from general policing.
If they want to do general policing, it seems to me they shouldn't have the same people, with the same training, trying to do the effective federal policing and the municipal and provincial policing. There are some people who like that and who want to do that kind of policing. Well, okay: Hire them, train them for it, and let them do it. But don't move them around and put them in other functions where they're looking at cybercrime and things like that.
That's what I meant. A few women recommended that you break the RCMP and create three different police forces with these functions, but you don't really have to do that if you're going to specialize people and create different mandates within the RCMP.
