Federal Government Promises Probe of RCMP's Approach to Sexual Misconduct in The Ranks
For years, critics have accused the RCMP of letting cases of sexual misconduct slide CBC News 28 JAN 2022. ![]() It's been years since Cathy Mansley wore her RCMP uniform. She still gets upset talking about her exit. The former constable said she was the target of discrimination and sexual advances — including unwanted touching — throughout her career. "When I became more vocal about how I was being treated at work and how I wasn't being helped, especially after I asked for help, everything just went downhill from there," she told CBC News from her home in Cape Breton. Mansley said that, despite complaints to the chain of command, the officer who she says touched her and others was allowed to retire. She said she spiralled as a result, began drinking too much and eventually left the RCMP after 24 years with a medical discharge. After years of claims that sexual predators and harassers have been allowed to serve in the RCMP with few consequences, the federal government is promising to review how the police service disciplines its members. Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino's post-election mandate letter tasked him with launching "an external review of the RCMP's sanctions and disciplinary regime to determine the adequacy of existing sanctions and whether they are applied properly and consistently." A spokesperson for the minister said the review will look at how the RCMP handles sexual misconduct in the ranks. "We know there remains more work to be done and RCMP reform is one of Minister Mendicino's top priorities," said Alexander Cohen. The RCMP has been accused for years of imposing inadequate sanctions on Mounties in cases of harassment and sexual assault. In his scathing 2020 report on the RCMP's internal culture, former Supreme Court justice Michel Bastarache said he heard alleged victims of sexual misconduct accuse the RCMP of letting perpetrators slide with next to no "consequences." The force has paid out millions of dollars to more than 2,300 victims as part of the historic Merlo-Davidson settlement agreement, which was the result of a class-action lawsuit related to sexual harassment of women within the RCMP.
