Harper has no intention of "fixing" the RCMP. He is in need of his own brown shirts (red shirts?) for his very special agenda, and the present degraded condition of the "Mounties" will prove to be ideal fodder.

Maybe more provinces giving them the boot will reduce their relevancy and presence across Canada. The provinces who sign the contract have a lot of power, formerly unused. The scandals over sexual abuse and racist abuse of female members, is disempowering their immunity, in the eyes of many Canadians who formerly naively trusted them. Now complaints against them have far more credibility, in the eyes of the public, than they ever would have a couple of decades ago. On of the most powerful weapons they had was public support. Now that is disappearing rapidly.
From national symbol to national embarrassment in a short time.
