I am bringing up this topic because I have a question about the regular/"normal" 50 Cents coins from 2006.
(I am relatively new to Canadian coins).

Is it true that the ones with the " RCM" mint-mark were only available through sets, while the ones with the "P" mark were (also) available in rolls?

2000P 25 cents was only issued in sets- the regular 2000, with no P, were the millennium issues, in 12 varieties.
2007 and 2009 metal varieties on the 1 cents were both issued for circulation.
The P stands for plated , using the RCM technology , on steel blanks that were coated with the other metals. The RCM Logo, often noted as L, were issued later in the year 2006, and in 2007-2010, but not on the commemorative issues of 2006-2010. Both varieties were issued for circulation.
The 2006 plain 5 cents was a copper-nickel issue.

2000P twenty-five cents (caribou) were not issued in sets,they were not issued at all,they were test coins that left the mint through the back door.
PS..a few 2000P commemoratives also exist but probably have the same origin.
