Its height of ignorance on your end.I think you do not know the difference between bust and burst. Dictionary please.
Anyhow, RCMP has hands in many things and won't publish that on Wikipedia. One should assume no security agency should. They are overseas for a reason and immigration is one of them. If they were only dealing with intra-Canadian issues then they won't need liaison offices overseas. The wrong perception people have is that RCMP is like Toronto Police. It is not.
Each agency has its authority clearly defined in the legislative Act through which it was formed. It is the same for all agencies, be it RCMP, CSIS, IRCC, or CBSA. These agencies cannot go beyond the scope of what has been given in the act, and if they do, it is unconstitutional and beyond their jurisdiction.
For your convenience I did post the scope and jurisdiction of RCMP, but as usual, you make assumptions without bothering to read.
RCMP - Royal Canadian Mounted Police Act
Mandate of RCMP
18 It is the duty of members who are peace officers, subject to the orders of the Commissioner,
- (a) to perform all duties that are assigned to peace officers in relation to the preservation of the peace, the prevention of crime and of offences against the laws of Canada and the laws in force in any province in which they may be employed, and the apprehension of criminals and offenders and others who may be lawfully taken into custody;
- (b) to execute all warrants, and perform all duties and services in relation thereto, that may, under this Act or the laws of Canada or the laws in force in any province, be lawfully executed and performed by peace officers;
- (c) to perform all duties that may be lawfully performed by peace officers in relation to the escort and conveyance of convicts and other persons in custody to or from any courts, places of punishment or confinement, asylums or other places; and
- (d) to perform such other duties and functions as are prescribed by the Governor in Council or the Commissioner.
It is not an intelligence agency. They may have an intelligence wing to tackle crime in Canada, but the task of gathering intelligence is specifically assigned to CSIS, read the CSIS Act.
[*]12 (1) The Service shall collect, by investigation or otherwise, to the extent that it is strictly necessary, and analyse and retain information and intelligence respecting activities that may on reasonable grounds be suspected of constituting threats to the security of Canada and, in relation thereto, shall report to and advise the Government of Canada.
[*]Marginal note:No territorial limit
(2) For greater certainty, the Service may perform its duties and functions under subsection (1) within or outside Canada.
The link from where you copied all the liaison offices of RCMP, also states following if you would have just bothered to read:
Deployed to 26 countries, liaison officers (LOs) and analysts deployed overseas (ADOs) work in strategic locations around the world. They act as the link between law enforcement agencies in Canada and in their host country. Being posted around the world allows LOs and ADOs to share best practices and to communicate the RCMP's mission, vision and values.
When the RCMP engages another country in pursuing major investigations, LOs can help. They use their knowledge of the host country to support domestic and international partners.
Many agencies have liaison offices to share criminal databases, information, curtail money laundering, etc. Just don't create things out of thin air.While they play a significant role in Canadian investigations that reach beyond our borders, LOs have no jurisdiction abroad. They can only advance Canadian investigations with the approval of foreign authorities.
Posting LOs to strategic locations around the world provides Canada with an international link that is crucial in today's policing environment. It also helps contribute to the safety and security of Canadians here at home.
Liaison officers:
- Help major Canadian investigative inquiries in foreign countries.
- Maintain the exchange of criminal intelligence between the RCMP and foreign authorities.
- Provide help to foreign agencies in investigations that affect Canada.
- Coordinate and assist RCMP employees travelling abroad on official business.
- Represent the RCMP at international conferences and seminars.
- Help with training and capacity-building initiatives in foreign countries.
READ!!! and stop posting incorrect, misleading information.
