The RCMP is hiring, and an upcoming presentation in Vernon will offer would-be recruits a glimpse of the exciting career opportunity.

In a Wednesday press release, the RCMP said there is a need for police officers from all backgrounds and they’re looking for people who are “physically fit, up for a challenge and ready to make a difference wherever they’re posted.”
