Personally, with me, it's a bit of the other way around. Officers up here have less of that whole corruption dealio going on that the states do. And, the shooting up in Nova Scotia hit home. Officers in general up here are quite nice, and it really sucks when they get into trouble like up in Moncton. I remember a few years ago in Alberta, four officers were killed when they went to investigate a man's property with a warrant and they were picked off by the guy with a sniper rifle one by one.
Now more than ever it's hard to be a good police officer because of their bad rep and the "one bad apple effect" that is circulating around right now.

I was very impressed with the way the RCMP responded in Moncton. I did not expect that to end in an arrest. I expected it to end a lot bloodier.

Don't look at me, like I said, I have more respect for officers than the current modern militarymen at the moment.
