They are national police force but there are area's of Canada that they don't police and they're Quebec and Ontario. Both province have their own provinical police.
Each province has a contract with the RCMP to "police" their own province. Each major city of Canada has their own police force, some even small cities, say compared to Red Deer or Camrose AB, they also have their own police force.
In comparsion to USA, RCMP is like FBI, and state police
