    KAMLOOPS, B.C. — The RCMP detachment in Kamloops, B.C., has celebrated a milestone in the recovery of one its own a year after the officer was shot during a traffic stop.

    Michaud was transferred to Vancouver for treatment before returning to a Kamloops hospital months after he was shot. (CFJC)
