I am sure there are many female members who were abused, or felt abused, within the ranks of the RCMP. On May 23, 1974, Commissioner M.J. Nadon announced that the RCMP would begin accepting applications from women for regular police duties. I cannot even begin to empathize with the trauma that so many female officers obviously suffered. I also share my own observations that in almost three decades of service, I had an excellent working relationship with, and respect for, all female officers. It is time to get back to simple virtues of ethics, honour, truth, open and fair-minded investigations, justice, equality of law notwithstanding ethnicity or gender, and that we are serving everyone, not just ourselves.
