And then you won't have any cops left, and thus anarchy. Would you apply for a job where if you smurf up once, you're out the door? I wouldn't.

OK, there we go -- so discipline needs to be tougher, but not to the point of zero tolerance. I think it's almost impossible to get fired from the RCMP. If I could easily get hired, I'd be tempted to do the dick helicopter just outside the station on my first day to see if that did the trick.
