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.

If you are just realizing that Municipal police are more aggressive on traffic enforcement than the RCMP, wait to see what Surrey PD will mean for the car community and the people of Surrey.

Things like this will change, the RCMP isn't enforcing UBER. But when the mayor gets his own police force, he will get to choose what they do.
