Issue/Question:

Royal Canadian Mounted Police Heritage Centre and Budget 2024

Suggested Response:

We recognize the important work that the RCMP Heritage Centre is doing, and that is why our Government has proposed new funding of $3 million over two years to support the Centre’s operations.

Background:

The Museums Act establishes national museums and defines their mandates, powers, and governance. National museums are federal Crown corporations, established under the Museums Act. National museums may also have affiliate museums, which share national status but do not have their own Board of Trustees. All national museums receive annual parliamentary appropriations to cover the majority of their operating costs, including those of any affiliate museums.
