Scott Blandford considered attending the RCMP Academy when he was looking to become a police officer about 40 years ago, but he soon realized the training centre in Regina wasn\u0027t for him

The Depot on average brings in about 1,200 cadets each year, training them for six months before the majority leave to be posted in a community, where they then receive six months of field coaching.

Blandford said militaristic styles create single-mindedness and don’t allow for free critical thinking, resulting in a culture that’s bureaucratic. “In my view, it is time to revisit the approach of the training given to cadets at Depot and consider whether it is appropriate in a modern policing context,” Bastarache wrote.

While phasing out Depot for a new educational model could better prepare recruits, provincial and municipal leaders in Saskatchewan don’t want to see the training facility closed down. She said the RCMP could partner with the University of Regina and its federated college, First Nations University of Canada. Both are in the city and the University of Regina already offers a degree in police studies.
