Do members of the “Royal Canadian Mounted Police” only go around riding a horse?
And are their uniform different from other police officers?
I once saw in Toronto a police officer wearing the casual Torontonian police uniform and riding a horse.
I assume this has nothing to do with the so famous ‘Canadian Mounted Police’, does it?
Lastly, can members of the “Royal Canadian Mounted Police” be found anywhere in Canada, including Toronto?
And are they called ‘police officers’? If not, what is their title?
Hello from Canada. The RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police), are a federal police force which was established in the 1800′s by an act of the British Parliament. They were originally known as the Northwest Mounted Police because their jurisdiction was the Northwest Territories. As the Dominion of Canada grew, it became clear to the Government of Canada (established as an independent nation in 1867 within the British Commonwealth) that the police force needed to be expanded to cover more of the country, so the name was changed to the RCMP.
Yes, they are ‘police officers’. No, they don’t always ride horses; that is mainly for shows now, for parades and so on. Other police forces, like the Toronto Police Service, also ride horses for ceremonies. The RCMP have vehicles like any other police force. Many of them go in plain clothes to work as detectives. Yes, they can be found anywhere in Canada, including Toronto, which is still part of Canada even though it’s the centre of the universe 
. The dress uniform of the RCMP is a bright red, similar to British military dress uniforms. The ‘working’ uniform of the RCMP is similar to the working uniform of British cavalry.
