Cavalier of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP). Founded by Sir John A. Macdonald, Father of Canadian Confederation and Prime Minister of Canada, this police force was initially to enforce the law in the Northwest Territories, establish friendly relations with the First Nations (Amerindians) and open up the land for colonization. The RCMP was made popular with the general public for its work during the Klondike Gold Rush at the turn of the 20th century.
