A Quebec RCMP officer is under criminal investigation after allegedly making threatening remarks and leaking details about Trump’s movements during the G7 summit.
RCMP Officer Under Investigation After G7 Summit Allegations
A Quebec-based RCMP officer is facing both a criminal investigation and an internal disciplinary review for allegedly making threatening remarks and disclosing sensitive security details while deployed during the recent G7 summit in Kananaskis, Alberta.
Remarks Allegedly Targeted U.S. President
According to multiple sources familiar with the matter, the officer allegedly made online comments about U.S. President Donald Trump during the summit last month. The allegations include claims that the officer shared classified information related to Trump’s movements, a potential breach of international security protocols.
While the Royal Canadian Mounted Police has not confirmed the officer’s identity or the exact nature of the comments, the force acknowledged that the matter is under active investigation.
RCMP Confirms Criminal and Conduct Investigations
“The RCMP takes all threats that may impact the sense of safety seriously,” said RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Érique Gasse in a statement. “Violent language or behaviour is not tolerated.”
Gasse confirmed the officer is being investigated for potential criminal conduct and also faces a code of conduct review within the force. The outcome of the evidence review will determine whether charges are laid.
Heightened Security Surrounding G7
Held in Kananaskis, Alberta, the G7 summit was one of the largest domestic security operations in Canadian history. It involved a coordinated response from the RCMP, provincial and municipal police, and the Canadian Armed Forces.
Security planning had accounted for a range of threats, particularly surrounding the presence of high-profile international leaders. Officials were especially vigilant, given prior assassination attempts on Trump during his campaign in 2024.
Potential Breach Raises Diplomatic Concerns
Although the RCMP has declined to comment on whether the U.S. government was notified of the incident, the allegations—if confirmed—could raise diplomatic and security concerns between Canada and its allies.
Security experts note that any leak involving the movement of a foreign head of state, particularly under the protective umbrella of a summit like the G7, constitutes a serious violation of protocol.
Outcome Pending as Investigation Continues
The RCMP has not provided a timeline for the completion of its review. The officer remains under scrutiny as the force evaluates evidence for possible criminal charges and disciplinary action.
