“We are excited to have the Musical Ride back in Manitoba this year,” says Sgt. Bert Paquet, Media Relations Officer for the Manitoba RCMP. “There are great events planned across the province including a stop at the Lower Fort Garry National Historic Site for a full day of historic re-enactments, a tribute to the North West Mounted Police and authentic Indigenous dancing and ceremonies. It’s a perfect way to highlight our longstanding partnership with Parks Canada.”

The Musical Ride provides the public with an opportunity to experience the heritage and traditions of the RCMP. It also helps raise funds for local charities and initiatives across Canada.

The 2016 tour schedule includes stops in numerous Manitoba communities. In 2017, the Musical Ride tour will be going across the country in celebration of Canada’s 150th anniversary. View the 2016 Musical Ride tour schedule online.
