Your understanding is closer to the mark. The current period of training at depot is 24 weeks. That is followed by six months in the field where recruits work with a trainer, a more experienced officer. Certainly, training, including recurrent training--that is, training on the use of force--continues throughout the careers of all our officers. It occurs at least annually with respect to CEWs and the use of force more generally, including firearms, but it also includes specialized training.
Certainly, we would review training and policies whenever a situation arose where there were any concerns raised by us, the public, or the Commission for Public Complaints Against the RCMP with respect to the appropriateness of what our officers may have done in any given situation.
