Mr. Speaker, the only things the government has done since its election with respect to the RCMP have been to confirm the RCMP Commissioner's imperial status as a distinct employer, to drag its feet in putting the Gingras decision into application, to table Bill C-58 so as to prevent the RCMP from unionizing and, finally, to thumb its nose
at the most democratic rights of RCMP officers, for instance blocking Sergeant Major Gaétan Delisle from running for mayor of Saint-Blaise-sur-Richelieu.
When will the government begin to treat RCMP officers like every other Canadian citizen?
