    In 2017, Supt. Cook was promoted to his current rank and transferred to Corner Brook, as the District Policing Officer for Western Newfoundland and Labrador.

    Corner Brook based RCMP Superintendent (Supt.) David Cook spent his last day on the job yesterday. With more than 43 years of service, Supt. Cook is one of the longest-serving RCMP officers to retire in this province. Having spent much of his service in various policing roles in Alberta, he was born and raised in Ottawa and started a career as a constable in 1982. In 2017, Supt. Cook was promoted to his current rank and transferred to Corner Brook, as the District Policing Officer for Western Newfoundland and Labrador. Over the course of 43 years, Supt. Cook has likely seen and heard it all, and we are sure his experiences would make for some interesting stories. He says he’ll remember his time with the RCMP in Newfoundland and Labrador fondly.
