At last, some of the real reasons  for RCMP's decline during the last several decades have been openly exposed. The majority of officers that form the foundation of the force are "used" by the top ranking officers. Of course the ingrained attitude of power and control commences when men don the red serge tunic. Many officers adhere to the RCMP's Core Values, or at least try to do so. but there are handfuls of self-serving officers whose primary objectives are in self gratification, self promotion, and securing top rankings. 
RCMP foundation has massive cracks, unstable, weakened by the numerous negativity exposed. Needed is an honest, confident, and professional officer from the ranks who is able to lead inspire address the rogues' influences by implementing the Core Values. The base must be made whole otherwise the RCMP will never recover the trust honour respect of all Canadians.
