As the United States northern neighbor, Canada serves as a NATO ally and a strategic partner with Washington through the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD). Canadian forces have fought honorably and bravely in concert with American forces in many wars. Canada’s Government, however, has been less consistent in promoting a credible vision of Canadian national security policy and geopolitical interests in its defense white papers.

  • Red Serge Revival
    Toward a Red Serge Revival A Position Paper The Views of: Senator Tommy Banks Senator Joseph Day Senator Colin Kenny Senator Grant Mitchell Senator Wilfred Moore Senator Rod Zimmer A Position Paper on the Current State of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police February 22, 2010 (Ce document est disponible en français) The RCMP’s Place at the Heart of Canada The Royal Canadian Mounted Police is a revered Canadian institution. It is not only essential to the security of Canadians, it is essential to our national self-image. The RCMP played an historic role in settling our country. And in the 21st century, we Canadians trust that its peace officers will continue to provide us with the law and order we need to pursue our dreams. The authors of this position paper are as determined as anyone to see that the RCMP remains a national treasure. But that will not happen if political and institutional decision-makers choose outdated ways of doing things and ignore the need for change. Canada is evolving into an exciting new country. To remain a national icon to Canadians, the RCMP must become an important part of where we are going, just as it has been an important part of where we have been. Please note Appendix C for Ethics Declaration. ii DEDICATION This paper is dedicated to Senator Tommy Banks by the others beside him in this venture. We have been privileged to know Tommy for ten years. We can attest to the fact that he is the sweetest guy this side of heaven.
