  • Rcmp Pipes and Drums (National Capital Region)
    RCMP PIPES AND DRUMS (NATIONAL CAPITAL REGION) 2005 Stability and Growth. The band successfully completed another full season of performances complemented by the Loch Murray team of RCMP Highland Dancers. By 2005, the band and dancers were already considered a fixture in the National Capital Region, performing at over 35 events over the course of the year. Pipers and drummers from the local area continued to gravitate to the band allowing the numbers to consistently increase, enabling a substantive presence for its many events. Challenges. With the early success and growth in the size of the band, it was quickly outgrowing the EDU building at the Canadian Police College as a practice facility and the search began for a new practice site. Several locations were under consideration with a hope to move to a new facility in the following year. Not-For-Profit Incorporation. Commensurate with an on-going national policy review of RCMP community bands of pipes and drums, led by the Public Affairs and Information Directorate, the band began actively exploring alternative and complementary funding arrangements. The band initiated the steps to function under the aegis of a Not-For-Profit entity, appropriately constituted under federal and provincial legislation, in order to raise funds to fully under-write band operations not otherwise supported from public funds. Composite Band Capability. Composite bands were already now becoming a more common occurrence. A band was formed of the NCR and “C” Division bands, parading in the St. Patrick =s Day Parade in Montreal, and also parading in the Canada Day parade in Ottawa.

Canadian authorities failed to effectively investigate the bombing, and provide families of the victims with adequate support for the traumatic losses they underwent (Air India Inquiry Report, 2010). This is despite families’ repeatedly demanding the Canadian government for information, services, and a thorough criminal investigation into the bombings. Many families claimed the government treated them like “second-rate” citizens and questioned whether systemic racism was a factor in how the criminal investigation was handled (for example see Public Hearings, 2006, p.47).

  • RCMP 2014 Rev 2020-10-13 Reva
    RCMP PIPES AND DRUMS (NATIONAL DIVISION) 2014 No major travel… but a busy year at home. For the first time since 2004, the RCMP pipe band did not have at least one major trip on the calendar. Given the hectic schedule of years previous, and big trips coming ahead in 2015, it was a good time for the band to catch its breath. Of course, that did not mean the year was quiet by any stretch of the imagination. The band still participated in 42 events over the course of 2014 and contributed to an additional 75 solo events. 2014 saw some extremely important garrison functions that kept the band in the forefront over the year. The band participated in a dedication ceremony at the RCMP National Memorial Cemetery (Beechwood) for a new Mountie statue, paraded on Parliament Hill for the National Day of Honour recognizing veterans of the Afghanistan conflict, joined in with an RCMP composite pipe band for a nationally aired RCMP funeral in Moncton NB, combined with the Ottawa Police Service pipe band for the 25 th anniversary of International Policing for National Peacekeepers Day, and performed at the 10 th anniversary of the establishment of the RCMP National Memorial Cemetery (Beechwood). The signature moment for the band in 2014 was performing for the Princess Royal, Princess Anne, at the RCMP Stables on 10 November 2014, at which time she was presented a gift of RCMP tartan. The total band numbers remained reasonably constant over 2014, but as with other years there always seemed to be a continuous stream of arrivals and departures.
