Based in Ottawa, Ont., the group of 32 riders performs in up to 50 communities across Canada each year between May and October. It travels to each province every four years to ensure as many Canadians as possible get to experience the show.

The ride is currently travelling throughout Alberta after touring Quebec before making its way through the Northwest Territories.

Performances raise thousands of dollars for local charities and non-profit groups while building positive community relationships with RCMP members.

The ride also supports recruiting efforts and promotes the RCMP’s image in communities in Canada and abroad.
