Albertans will start to see more frontline RCMP members wearing body-worn cameras (BWC) in the coming months as the provincial rollout continues for the next 12 months.
Body-worn cameras provide a new opportunity for the Alberta RCMP to show our commitment to transparency and accountability. The video evidence collected through these devices will provide independent, unbiased and objective interactions between civilians and officers, helping to increase trust between police and the communities we serve.
This initiative advances our organization's commitment to ongoing modernization. We know the policing needs of Albertans are changing, and this demonstrates our adaptability and commitment to meeting those needs and upholding public safety.
