Manitoba Premier Heather Stefanson said many premiers feel like they are being left in the dark about the future of the RCMP.

“We’re very concerned because there is no indication what the federal government’s plan is moving forward with respect to the RCMP,” Ms. Stefanson, outgoing chair of the Council of the Federation, told reporters July 12 as Canada’s premiers wrapped up three days of meetings in Winnipeg.
