Dead RCMP Auxiliary Constable refused Recognition

[Edo]

From an email I received today:

Those in Vernon will have seen this in today's paper on the front page today. Its pretty sad when an auxiliary officer killed in the line of duty is not added to the list of Canadian Police and Peace Officers Memorial in Ottawa. The city of Vernon has tried 3 times now. Now an auxiliary officer from Surrey has set up a petition and hopes that this time Ottawa will open their eyes and maybe read what we have to say. Please sign the petition these officers are out there night after night helping the RCMP as most cities and towns are so short staffed with the right amount of RCMP members.

The honour roll has listings for corrections officers, wildlife protection officers, parks wardens, forest officers, conservation officer, first nations constables, fisheries officers there is even a parole officer listed An Auxiliary Constable deserves to be honoured as well.

Have you seen the RCMP's record in BC of late? The lack of recognition comes as no surprise to me.

When will they recognize the suspects killed in custody where RCMP testimony as to the events is in direct contradiction to the coroner's findings?

@#$! the RCMP. Biggest crime syndicate in Canada. They get no honour or respect from me.

Well that was definatly not the response I expected

Professor - the policy of the Canadain Police and Peace Officers memorail has nothing to do with the RCMP in BC.

Anything even remotely connected with the RCMP in BC (or nationally, for that matter) should be held under a microscope, unless you're in favour of unchecked police behaviour, and criminal behaviour by police officers, that is.

Give it a rest man - regardless of what you think about the RCMP an unpaid volunteer constable who was killed on the job deserves recognition.

Who could argue with that?
