Royal Canadian Mounted Police

For nearly 150 years, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) has been Canada's national police service.

We have national, federal, provincial, and municipal policing mandates. From coast to coast to coast, at the community, provincial/territorial and federal levels, we:

- Strive to prevent crime
- Investigate crimes
- Enforce federal, provincial/territorial, and municipal law
- Keep Canadians safe

We offer our renowned expertise at the international level as well.

We are more than 20,000 police officers, supported by nearly 10,000 civilian employees in over 700 detachments in 150 communities across the country. We also provide policing services in more than 600 Indigenous communities.
