Does this mean what I think it does? New FRT for the FGC9, a 3d printed 9mm PCC.

RCMP said they changed their minds and no you can't manufacture your own firearms.

It’s so annoying that the RCMP has the power to just make up their own laws as they go

Especially when it comes to firearms law, every law enforcement agency in the country takes their cues from the RCMP. If the RCMP determines that X gun is prohib, Y part is a prohibited device, or Z action is illegal, almost certainly no municipal force is going to dispute it.

Keep in mind that criminal law- including firearm regulation- is an exclusive federal power in Canada, so there really isn't any jurisdictional disputes between the feds, provinces, and municipalities. All LEOs enforce the same laws, and where there is any doubt on what those laws might actually mean, the RCMP's opinion is decisive.
