News release

What other career would open up an experience like this!?! Hopedale RCMP Constable (Cst) Krista Reid was recently afforded the unique opportunity of mushing a local dog sled team in Hopedale.

While out enjoying her time off on her snowmobile, Cst. Reid happened upon a local dog sled team. Amazed by what she was seeing, Cst. Reid approached the owner and asked if she could give it a try. Without hesitation, the owner proudly obliged and handed over the reigns. Cst. Reid jumped on the komatik and away they went!

A career with the RCMP is only limited to the employee's imagination. Rural policing, especially in some of our Labrador communities, offers such great cultural experiences that create memories to last a lifetime.

Cst. Reid surely won't forget this incredible experience!

We're Hiring!!!
