Summary:
"A stunning personal account of Janet Merlo's twenty years of service in the
RCMP
, with an introduction by Linden MacIntyre. In 2012, Janet Merlo was among the first female
RCMP
officers to publicly allege she had experienced sexual harassment and gender discrimination while serving in Canada's national police force. The women kept silent for so long, she says, because there was
no
one
to
tell
. In this courageous memoir, Janet recalls how her love of policing was soured by covert and overt sexism within the ranks and by an institutional culture that valued toughness and
silence
over ethics and accountability. Tracing her twenty years in uniform, Merlo's story details the highs and lows of her career in the
RCMP
- while her mental health and personal
life
disintegrated. Eventually, the cost of keeping quiet was simply too high, and her story emerges as a lone, brave voice seeking change"--Provided by publisher.
