Look at any other profession, like medical for example, we trust our lives to those who care for us when we are ill, why don't you dig up all the great preventable deaths from this group ? Ill help here, doctors kill more people per year than motor vehicles and guns combined in the United States, let that sink in and digest for a while....
Why don't we hold the medical profession to a higher standard ? Real question here...

He resigned, he wasn't fired, huge difference. As to the medical profession, neither myself nor most Canadians practise medicine, so there is no easy way to compare how the legal system is applied to citizens vs doctors. However, myself and millions of Canadians do own firearms, so it's quite easy to compare how LEOs are treated for firearms violations, compared to regular citizens. And millions of us hunt, and we see how poachers are dealt with under the legal system. Most people that tried to poach a caribou, would be facing a lot more than a charge of not having a license. The fact that the season was closed would bring changes, as would using a vehicle, and was he wearing the colors reuired in Manitoba?
