==Non-military services== ===Canada=== '''Police services''' The majority of police forces are taught to salute like the [[Canadian Armed Forces]] with a level palm and the middle finger aligned with the right eye, and not the brim of the hat. The federal Royal Canadian Mounted Police salute according to the British Army tradition with the palm facing forward. ====Non-police==== Similar salutes are used by guards of honour for non-police services (e.g. [[Toronto Fire Services]], [[Toronto Transit Commission]]) during funerals or ceremonial events. Due to their close ties with the [[Canadian Armed Forces]], the [[Royal Canadian Army Cadets]], [[Royal Canadian Sea Cadets]], and [[Royal Canadian Air Cadets]] are taught the Canadian Armed Forces salute. ===Hong Kong=== All uniform branches of the Hong Kong Police, Police Auxiliary, Police Pipeband, Fire (including Ambulance service members), Immigration, Customs, Correctional Services, Government Flying Service, Civil Aid Service) saluted according to [[British Army]] traditions until 2021. Personnel stationed with the [[People's Liberation Army]] in Hong Kong salute using the Chinese military standards and similar to those used by the [[Royal Navy]]. Non-government organizations like [[Hong Kong Air Cadet Corps]], [[Hong Kong Adventure Corps]], the [[Boys' Brigade, Hong Kong]], [[Hong Kong Sea Cadet Corps]], [[Hong Kong Scout]] and [[St. John Ambulance]] all follow the same military salutes due to their ties with the [[British Armed Forces]].
