RCMP faces labour code trial for ‘mistakes’ in 2014 Moncton massacre
MONCTON, N.B. — Three years after a gunman’s rampage left three Mounties dead, the RCMP itself faces trial Monday.
The Labour Code trial stems from the force’s handling of the 2014 massacre in Moncton, N.B., and the wife of one victim says it will be extremely difficult for everyone involved — but necessary.
“Change in this organization is needed before tragic history repeats itself,” Nadine Larche said.
“Had they had proper equipment, proper training and information, I believe that the outcome of that day would have been very different.”
