The role of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police during the Indian residential school system

The report is the first complete assessment of the relationship between the RCMP and the IRS system. The focus of the research was to explain how police officers were linked to the IRS system and what actions the police took, if any, if they were aware of abuse. Although the research found that the RCMP was not an active participant in the IRS system, it did conclude that the RCMP assumed a responsive, law enforcement role within the system. The RCMP's role included: - searching for and returning truant children; - finding parents who refused to send their children to school and informing them of their obligations to do so under The Indian Act; - providing transportation to schools; and - occasionally conducting investigations at the schools, primarily related to fires or missing children."--from R.C.M.P. news release.
