Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP)

One of their officers, constable Tyler Waringa, served a ticket to my wife for "failure to yield" after the fact when a loud and aggressive man phoned in to the RCMP and told him she had cut him off. Since when are tickets issued based on hearsay?!?

I usually love the RCMP and know how much most members put into their training in order to be able to keep us safe. I am giving 1 star however, because I had a shop in the downtown area with a man I consider a slumlord. After we paid the rent for the month and gave our final notice of moving out, he changed the locks and gave us a bill for phantom charges in order to steal our equipment. I thought for sure the RCMP would be on our side as this landlord has an infamous reputation of abusing his tenants, which I had seen first hand. We had to hire a Bailiff in order to get our things out of the building because the RCMP said it was a Civil matter that they cannot help with, because I was told that if I would open the door of my own shop I would be charged with breaking in. So we hired a Bailiff, a truck to move the stuff, and set up the times so everyone could see we were not stealing anything but going by the law. The first Officer that came out the day we had the Bailiff and locksmith open the door to get our things said that whatever the Bailiff said about the tenancy act was the law and as long he said we were in the right we would be able to enter our building. The landlord was at the building by this time and became agitated and began slandering me and our business in order to try and intimidate the people around, including the Officer, but the Bailiff and Officer assured me that all was ok and we would be able to get our things out. The original Officer had to leave on a call, so the Bailiff had to call the Police again, in order to remove the owner from the doorway as he was obstructing us saying he was not allowing us to remove what was rightfully ours. The Bailiff explained to us that if we removed him we would be charged with assault. So three Officers came and they all sided with the Landlord over the Bailiff, and wouldn't remove him from the door. Now I have to sue this man for illegally entering our shop and stealing our things. All we wanted was to remove our things peacefully, things which legally are ours. The Police Officers refused to help us and allowed a slumlord to continue to be a slumlord. I was amazed at the officers belief in the landlord over the bailiff, and now the BC Court system will be filled with more meaningless lawsuits because of this. It's sad when a slumlord can steal from people and have the RCMP do the heavy lifting when their is a problem. It's a sad commentary on how honest hardworking people realize that to be honest in this town means you get no where. If we did something illegal to get our things out probably we would have been ok, its very sad.
