A word from our president
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the Quebec division’s website of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Veterans' Association.
Founded in 1946, the Québec Division of the Association is happy to welcome public servants, civilian members, and police officers who have served with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in Québec, as well as in many other places across the country.
Members of the Association and active members of the RCMP are united by strong values of solidarity, mutual support, and a sense of community. These values have guided us throughout our careers and continue to do so in retirement.
True to our traditions, origins, and values, it is only natural that the primary mission of the Association is to provide support to our members and their families in various forms, while offering initiatives to prevent isolation and strengthen our sense of belonging.
Furthermore, the Association and its members are committed to making a difference in our communities, reflecting the work of RCMP employees who have served across the country for over 150 years. For many years, we have been supporting community organizations that provide frontline services to our fellow citizens in need, a commitment we intend to continue diligently in the coming years.
In 2025, our energies will be mainly focused on enhancing the services offered to our members, paying particular attention to our recruitment efforts, and increasing our community engagement.
In short, the Association provides an excellent opportunity to maintain the camaraderie and esprit de corps characteristic of the RCMP and to continue our commitment to making our society a better place, notably through our community involvement. It also creates a familiar and welcoming place to gather, fostering a strong bond between its members, as we have enjoyed throughout our careers.
We hope to see many of you join our ranks!
François Deschênes President
