From the few guys out there I have heard from this sounds accurate but they are committed to doing a good job all the same. Not only do they have to deal with their internal RCMP bureaucracy and the media attention from a couple of twits that fell through the cracks but there is also this constant rumour that BC will not renew their contract in teh province and start looking at a provincial police force again. Lots of reasons I don't see that happening but its just another stress they have to deal with.

As someone in the comments section said, this is true of a lot of public servants.

60% of B.C. RCMP staff considered quitting

and the other 40% are being investigated.

Actually it's not funny that a proud service has fallen so far, but when you lower standards and expectations this is what happens.

Is that the 40% in BC being investigated haha.

The army is probably quite similar if not worse.

Don't forget the Navy and the Air Force. You can't overburden people because of manning constraints for an extended period and expect them to be happy about it.

I can actually remember when the Navy had a one man one billet policy, fuck I must be getting old.
