Canadian RCMP certified criminal record check for Australian citizenship application

I am requesting a police certificate from Canada for Australian citizenship application. My questions are:

1. Is "RCMP certified criminal record check" the document we should provide in the AU citizenship application?

2. Should it be apostilled? (Both Canada and Australia are signatories to the Hague Apostille convention)

Cheers,
Max

1. The Certified Criminal Record Check issued by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) is the only police check accepted by the Department of Home Affairs, so Yes.
2. Usually when this is required it is specifically mentioned. Its not, so I suspect it is not required.
