WATCH: It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for two young girls from Alberta -- joining the ranks of RCMP as co-commanding officers for the day. As Sarah Jones tells us, it's all thanks to the Kids with Cancer Society setting these young warriors up for a trip they'll never forget.

It’s been a once-in-a-lifetime trip for brave young girls, Tessa and Janine.

The pair were welcomed to join the RCMP as co-commanding officers on a two-day adventure spanning Alberta and Saskatchewan.
