An American womand and her Australian boyfriend were found murdered on the side of a road in BC. The deceased boyfriend's dad is a cop in Australia. Two detectives from Australia were sent to work with BC police. Hope they catch the killer or killers quickly.

Back in the 90's I was doing a underwater forensic course and the police instructor said they estimated that 5-6 serial killers were working Western Canada.
 
Nothing like having the RCMP give a press conference on two people who were murdered and having the cat ear filter on.

Another dead, 2 more missing in northern BC: these are in addition to the young couple found murdered a few days ago.

A lot of weirdos move up and down the Alaska Highway. It’s a pretty canalized route for ne’er-do-Wells through Yukon, B.C, and Alberta. Lots goes on there, and the Mounties are very thin on the ground and far apart. That said, these two incidents are each well outside what is normal up there, and if linked, would be one hell of a spree by someone who will probably go down hard when cornered.

I hope police can put an end to this quickly.
 
Doesnt BC have its own police or does the RCMP police the province ?
 
2 Canadian kids have now come up missing in the Dease Lake area.

BC policing is covered by a mix of RCMP and municipal forces. Most rural areas contract with the RCMP.
 
I See. Thx When I was vacationing in the Yukon the RCMP handled policing for the province so I wasnt sure. Thx

In general, RCMP takes care of most of the country.  The only provinces with their own police force are Ontario (Ontario Provincial Police) and Quebec (Surete du Quebec).  The rest are all RCMP, then municipal/city police forces.

Perhaps not identical. But, similar in function to State Police and Highway Patrol.

You forgot the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary.

Sort of... they don’t come anywhere close to providing full provincial policing, but rather are concentrated in a couple cities/areas. The RCMP still polices most of Newfoundland.
 
Fox news is covering this closely. Intially the RCMP approach was to downplay this as a threat to the public. With the second murders I think their approach has changed. Eventually they will get their man. Meanwhile dont breakdown on that stretch of road. If it were me I would be armed with a pistol, but thats not the law in Canada but a shotgun is legal right ? At least the last time I was in Canada it was.I was able to bring in a shotgun and 300 win mag for my raft trip down the Yukon.
 
Looks like the missing young men are now suspects.

In a wilderness area, yes.  But you need the proper licenses, registrations, locking mechanisms, etc.
 
What turns a couple of teenagers into thrill killers ? Last seen in Saskatchewan. Won't be long until their capture now there are pictures up of the pair.

As of an hour or so ago the RCMP think they may be in Gillam, MB in the province's north east.
