With 66 countries in attendance, the Summit Francophone hosted the largest deployment of foreign dignitaries in Canadian history. With big crowds come big risks: biological, chemical and explosive threats are just a few of the many scenarios that the RCMP must prepare for. Security must be air-tight. With the Vancouver Olympics approaching, the stakes are high for Supt. Jacques Tanguay's last mission. The summit will also provide Jacques with his first and only opportunity to have his son under his command- an emotional experience.
Episode 2: VIP Training

These Mounties must be prepared for any situation, to put their lives on the line...even take a bullet.
Episode 3: Customs and Excise

Smuggling of illicit cigarettes is big business. Unfortunately most of that big business is organized crime. The RCMP is working with other law enforcement agencies to try and deter smuggling in every capacity. This exciting episode looks at smuggling in the Cornwall area and how the Mounties are making a difference through their proactive approach to the problem.
Episode 4: Depot
- 22m
- Nov 8, 2009
Since 1885 every RCMP officer in Canada has gone through Depot in Regina, Saskatchewan. It is an incredibly grueling program that teaches respect, honor and discipline. Kevin Marion is 24 years old and will be going to Depot to realize his goal of becoming a Mountie. With hard work and a bit of luck, his father Al, a 28-year RCMP veteran will present him with his badge at the end of the 24-week program. But sometimes wanting it doesn't always mean you get it.
Episode 5: Remote Policing
- 22m
- Nov 15, 2009
One of the most unique things about the RCMP is that they serve very remote, northern communities. This sets them apart from any other policing service in Canada. The remote experience is one that is all about commitment and extremes - extremes in temperatures, culture and working conditions. For some it's just a job, but for others, it becomes their way of life.
Episode 6: ERT
- 22m
- Nov 15, 2009
The Emergency Response Team is a group of highly-trained RCMP members capable of employing specialized weapons, equipment, and tactics to resolve extremely high-risk situations. For the first time cameras have been allowed to record some of these tactical procedures and scenarios. From boarding vessels in the Pacific Ocean at high speeds to rescue operations for a hostage in a remote part of Manitoba, this is a glimpse into what ERT does on a daily basis.
