The Royal Canadian Mounted Police was formed in 1920 by the merger of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police founded in 1873 with the Dominion Police founded 1868. The former was originally named the North-West Mounted Police was given the Royal prefix by King Edward VII in 1904. The Red Serge uniform nationally recognized is worn with pride.
As Canada's national police force, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police is primarily responsible for enforcing federal laws throughout Canada while general law and order including the enforcement of the Criminal Code and applicable provincial legislation is constitutionally the responsibility of the provinces and territories.

To log a visit, you must post a photo of you in front of the building described, with your GPS in the photo. No drive by photos.
I have had NO problems with taking photos of Police stations but please respect the fact that some services may be nervous about having their photo taken and inquire as to why... I have found that once things are explained they are more than happy to let me photograph the building, crest, chief... (they are people too!)
