Royal Canadian Mounted Police Protective Policing
The Protective Policing Service (French: Services de police de protection), operated by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, provides security details for the members of the Royal Family (when in Canada), the Governor General of the country and the Prime Minister. They also protect the families of the Prime Minister and Governor General, federal cabinet ministers, visiting VIPs, Members of Parliament, and Senators, diplomats, Supreme, Federal Court and Federal Court of Appeal justices, and those designated by the Minister of Public Safety as protected persons.
PPS agents can be recruited from the Canadian Armed Forces and other Police Services, but will be under the umbrella of the RCMP.
