VANCOUVER — Lawyers for the Surrey Police Union say officers were subjected to harassment and disrespect by members of the Surrey RCMP, only to be left in a"jurisdictional void" when both federal and British Columbia bodies declined to investigate their allegations.
The ministry lawyers had warned the documents could cause"undue public concern" over the state of affairs at the Surrey RCMP detachment where members of the Surrey Police Service were also deployed during the transition. Brach's report says some RCMP supervisors engaged in an"ongoing scheme of disrespect and harassment" against Surrey officers they had"negatively reported on" to their superiors.
It says one RCMP member had a"Keep the RCMP in Surrey" flag and a political poster supporting Surrey Mayor Brenda Locke displayed at his desk. A letter from union lawyer Sebastian Anderson to a private third-party arbitrator describes the situation.
