Yellowknife has assigned to it 24 active members. You said 27 of which 24 are active, so there are only three doing other things. I was under the impression that there were far fewer active RCMP on the beat for this city. Perhaps, I have received incorrect information. Obviously, you have more current and more accurate information than I have, but I was under the impression there were far fewer active RCMP in the city, than there would be in communities. For example, in Hay River where there is a much smaller population. Even if you include the surrounding areas, I believe the have 17. Fort Smith has six or seven. They have much smaller populations and the geographical areas that they serve are not much larger. How do they come up with a formula such as this?
