What types of police forces operate in Canada?

  1. Provincial Police Forces only

  2. Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and Municipal Police

  3. Provincial Police Forces (Ontario & Quebec ONLY), Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), Municipal Police

  4. Federal Police and City Police

The correct answer is: Provincial Police Forces (Ontario & Quebec ONLY), Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), Municipal Police

All provinces in Canada have their own provincial police force, making option A incorrect. Option B is incorrect because the Royal Canadian Mounted Police operates in all provinces and territories in Canada, not just municipalities. The correct answer, C, includes all three types of police forces in Canada (provincial, RCMP, municipal). Option D is incorrect because there are no federal police forces in Canada, and the term "city police" is not specific enough to cover all municipal police forces in the country.
