It might be, but Wiki describes it as a ceremonial unit, so I suspect that they're also horse corps in the same way that the RCMP still keeps horses for parades and drill exhibitions.
  
I'm not sure when or why (probably to deal with terrain hostile to motor vehicles), but I've seen it before: the RCMP still occasionally uses horses in actual police work. I do a doubletake every time I see a mounted officer in the modern blue uniform…
