Canadian Preppers flagged? Nova Scotia RCMP burn surplus gear 11 months after mass shooting

The Mounties in Nova Scotia have set nearly 7 tonnes of surplus gear, including uniform parts and body armour, ablaze this month.

In an interview, the force confirmed that between March 6 and 8, it incinerated precisely 6.92 tonnes of uniform shirts, pants, body armour, boots and other items,
in order to guarantee they can’t be used for criminal activity down the road.

“The incineration in this case is considered a complete form of destruction so there’s nothing left over and there’s no possibility of the uniform being used in any way shape or form ever again,” said Cpl. Mark Skinner.

Skinner said the decision to destroy the items comes in anticipation of “forthcoming” federal legislation that would require the RCMP to destroy those items anyway. The federal government is already beginning to enforce its new prohibition on the sale of decommissioned RCMP vehicles.
