maybe it's different in Canada, but here in the USA you *always* have the right to request a supervisor present. If a cop ever pulled me over for going the speed limit, I would ask why he pulled me over - if he claimed I was speeding or doing something I was not doing, I would politely demand a supervisor come out to the location.

Don't lose your cool, don't be a jerk and don't mouth off - but don't bitch out and let them walk all over your rights. Most cops are just regular guys doing a job - but just like you ask for a manager if you get crappy service at a restaurant, you do the same when you get crappy service from a LEO.
