It is a priority for CBC to create products that are accessible to all in Canada including people with visual, hearing, motor and cognitive challenges.

Once the plan is implemented, Ellis said, all front-line officers in Alberta, including those who work for municipal police services and self-administered Indigenous police services, will have to wear the small cameras.

The Edmonton Police Service tested the technology about a decade ago, finding that it was "unproven" and came with significant data management issues and costs.

The EPS pilot found no quantitative evidence that the cameras had an effect on complaints, nor evidence the cameras led to a reduction in use-of-force incidents. The technology did help speed up complaint investigations, however.

He said a more effective way to improve police accountability would be requiring officers to carry personal liability insurance. Officers who are found to have engaged in police misconduct or used excessive force would then see premiums go up.

A report on body-worn camera use in Calgary found the number of use-of-force incidents declined the year after the cameras were brought in. Internal and external complaints against police officers increased slightly, but complaint resolution time was reduced by half.

Research is mixed on the effectiveness of the devices, both in terms of reducing civilian complaints and in reducing use of force by police, Schneider said.

Shawn King, a defence lawyer and vice-president of the Criminal Trial Lawyers Association, said footage from body-worn cameras could corroborate testimony given in court and potentially shorten trials.

Schneider said the cameras themselves are not expensive, but the data storage can cost large cities like Edmonton or Toronto millions of dollars a year. Officers can also turn off the cameras, he said, and they raise privacy concerns.

Mike Ellis, minister of public safety and emergency services, said the cameras will increase public trust in policing and help police review interactions.

"At the end of the day, having video evidence is always preferable, as opposed to just having someone come in and tell you about what happened," he said.

Christopher Schneider, a sociology professor at Brandon University in Manitoba, has published several peer-reviewed articles on body-worn cameras.
