RCMP Remote Policing

Remote Policing - RCMP members face extreme temperatures, landscapes and working conditions policing in the far North. One of the most unique things about the RCMP is that they serve very remote, northern communities. This sets them apart from any other policing service in Canada. The remote experience is one that is all about commitment and extremes - extremes in temperatures, culture and working conditions. For some it’s just a job, but for others, it becomes their way of life. They live as the people do, they immerse themselves in the culture and they get out onto the land. The challenges are many. There are times when back up is hours away by plane and when specially trained tactical officers are called in to deal with extreme danger. Follow these members as they face these unique challenges and experiences.
