I agree with the sentiment of that article and that's even prior to this whole VI blitz thing... I've always felt RCMP was a lot more accountable and that the city police force (be it Delta, VPD, West Van, New West or whoever else) were more poorly trained and more likely to be biased. I have no facts to back that up with, just the feeling you get the way they talk to you whenever you deal with them.
Like most the time RCMP guys talk to me, as long as you're cordial with them and reasonable they just warn you or whatever for the most part... but city guys are like from the same bootcamp as CBSA, just want to fuck with you verbally and power trip.
