The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) is Canada's national police force, responsible for enforcing the law, preventing crime and maintaining peace, order and security. The RCMP provides policing services at three different levels across Canada: federal, provincial/territorial and municipal. Even though the RCMP is a modern police force, the scarlet tunic and the black horse remain an important part of the force's traditions and form part of Canada's national identity, as seen in the popular Musical Ride ceremony.
