why would you need to flash your badge to ask a question like that?
Instill a bit of fear and anxiety, gives them the power balance and gives them what they want to hear faster and with no problems.

RCMP in Quebec and Ontario are pretty hardcore. Essentially Canada's equivalent of the FBI. I remember a couple years ago I was waiting to pick up my cousin from university when this lady (and her partner a few meters behind her) in aviators and a $2000 women's suit walked up to my window, flashed her RCMP badge and asked where one of the buildings was.
Yeah, generally if you see RCMP in Ontario/Quebec, to my knowledge they work at Federal headquarters and are a specialized cop, not just a plain officer, but rather serve a more specific purpose
