This was due to a 1968 ruling stating that all statutes had to be published bilingually in both English and French. As a law enforcement agency, the RCMP had to use ranks and titles in both languages. This was later reinforced by the <a href="/wiki/Official_Languages_Act_(Canada)" title="Official Languages Act (Canada)"><i>Official Languages Act</i></a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Honorary_positions">Honorary positions</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Royal_Canadian_Mounted_Police&action=edit&section=29" title="Edit section: Honorary positions"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Several members of the <a href="/wiki/Canadian_royal_family" class="mw-redirect" title="Canadian royal family">Canadian royal family</a> hold honorary titles in the RCMP.

The commissioner-in-chief and honorary commissioners of the RCMP receive information and updates on important activities and serve as an advisor to the force's commanding officer; although, they do not play an operational role with the service.<sup id="cite_ref-rcmproyalhist_168-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-rcmproyalhist-168"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>166<span
