If the ministers don't want the RCMP in force, because whatever reason they have. Then the RCMP is likely to sit back and let a bunch of little stuff go until it escalates and goes out of hand. Which is exactly what happened.
This is caused by poor decisions at the government level not likely the RCMP.

Is it? Back on the 15th they said this:
Quote:
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau today defended the federal government's response to an escalating standoff over a Mi'kmaw fishery in Nova Scotia, saying Ottawa has been "extremely active" in trying to resolve the situation.
Speaking to reporters, he called for an end to the violence and harassment that has been on the rise over the past week in several fishing communities in the southwestern part of the province.
"We are expecting the RCMP and police services to do their jobs and keep people safe," Trudeau said.
"I think there's been some concern that that hasn't been done well enough and that's certainly something we will be looking at very closely."

To me that sounds like the government is not stopping the RCMP form doing their jobs, and the RCMP are the negligent ones here.
