A place to ask Canadians questions and get answers. The most obvious questions would be about Canada, but you can ask about pretty much anything; news, current events, society, etc
I don't intend this as an AMA format, but can entertain some. Rules:
- Be civil and act in good faith.
- No trolling.

I'm probably going to go with Via rail canada police.
I'm way too confident all the others you've listed are inherently racist, among other things.
I know nothing of the territories policing.

I'm glad THEY need evidence to accuse YOU of a hate crime or they'd also be bigots.

Isn't that like claiming New Brunswick Tim Hortons and Nova Scotia Tim Hortons are different groups?
Like, provincial allotment of the same force seems to be ... the same force. Same training, same low pay, etc. A double-double in Moncton should closely resemble a double-double from Truro.
And, you'll find, one of them has WAY different training. PER CAPITA, I'll bet one group has the least actual proved charges of unprofessionalism, but with the size of the group they'll appear in the news by name so much more. If one group is ten times the size of the others, and has 1/5th the problems, that's still gonna see double the reports in the news; and perception will be affected.
The Toronto police had that scandal with the bar in their HQ so I think that eliminates them as a contender
There was a user on the other site that would keep a list of all the terrible things the Toronto Police would do. It's a long list. We have a Police Board that does nothing and an Association that acts like the biggest mafia-based union for a group that isn't supposed to have a union. The biggest thing Toronto pays for is Police on it's budget, yet we get terrible response times, blatantly racist cops upholding blatantly racist policies, cops that won't talk to the SIU, and outright criminals on the force being on paid leave for half-a-decade or more waiting for a reason to fire the person when they should be behind bars. Then there was the G20... Illegal detentions, some in the middle of the street in the cold and rain, and cowardly officers hiding their names/badge numbers throughout.
The current TPS is the second police service that Toronto has had, after the first one was dismantled after the cops got into a riot with clowns from a visiting circus over a confrontation that started at a whore house, and I feel as strange as that reason was to rebuild, we should probably look at re-building replacing the TPS today.
Well, the RCMP seems to compete for last place. All of the others have the generic problems that police have.
ACAB.
