After thorough review of the Taser 7’s functionality and safety considerations, the panel unanimously recommended a field trial of the CEW, which was then authorized by the director of Police Services.

The Taser 7 is now authorized for use in B.C., and has been in use in Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Saskatchewan and Alberta.

The approval process for Taser 7 included convening a multi-disciplinary panel to provide advice to the director of Police Services with consideration of a range of expertise and perspectives.
