yeah, i goofed on csis being the fbi equivalent...forgot about the cia. The rcmp officers that were killed in moncton would be like, say, nypd officers, though. my hometown near moncton used to have its own municipal police force but it was replaced with a local rcmp detatchment. so i guess the federal rcmp would be similar to the fbi.
"RCMP is unique in the world as a national, federal, provincial, and municipal policing body. The RCMP provides policing services to all of Canada at a federal level, and also on a contract basis to the three territories, eight of Canada's provinces (the RCMP does not provide provincial or municipal policing in either Ontario or Quebec)"
what's the difference between national and federal? perhaps that's a stupid question.
