The amount of braid was specific to certain ranks, eg the cap may have been for a captain or major. (I am not familiar with the braid, Clive may have more when he sees this thread.) If the cap was RCMP, it may have been for a higher ranking officer, eg Inspector or Superintendent. If they were that rank, they may have had to buy their own kit.
