Fewer than half of Canadians (46 percent) say that the RCMP is an “accountable organization,” according to in-house research that followed the resignation of former RCMP commissioner Brenda Lucki.

“Overall attitudes towards the RCMP have improved somewhat over the past year, but are down from previous years,” said the research “Canadians’ Views Of RCMP Policing Services,” which was first obtained by Blacklock’s Reporter.
