The RCMP’s history with Canada’s Indigenous peoples has long been recognized as a source of trauma and outrage.

RCMP officers were often the face of the government policy — described by former Supreme Court Chief Justice Beverly McLachlin as an attempt at “cultural genocide” — to remove Indigenous children from their parents. More than 150,000 were taken to residential schools, where many were abused and forbidden to speak their language or maintain their culture.
