    Bella, Bailey and even Barack join RCMP

    By cuzzy | April 7, 2009

    There’s a Bella, a Bailey and even a Barack in this year’s recruits for front-line RCMP duty.

    But the U.S. president isn’t giving up his job for a crack at joining the Mounties.

    Barack was one of the winning names from school children across Canada for 10 puppies at the RCMP Police Dog Service Training Centre in Innisfail, Alta.

    All the names had to start with a “B” this year, and the centre received more than 8,550 individual and 343 school entries - the most ever.

    The youngest winner was six-year-old Marc Richard of East Royalty, P.E.I, who came up with the name Barack.

    The other names chosen were Brock, Breeze, Bullet, Barry, Badge, Blaze and Bounty.
