After an April deliberation by the TTC Board to test out the use of body-worn cameras for select employees across the network, the new tech has now been rolled out — and most residents seem surprisingly on board.
Along with a set of guidelines on how to use discretion and force during tricky customer interactions, the cameras are to help"foster transparency, accountability and build public trust within our organization," Constables are also being instructed to turn their cameras on during contraventions of the Trespass to Property Act, Liquor License and Control Act, Mental Health Act and/or Criminal Code of Canada.
In response to concerns about"selective recording," yet another commenter agreed, writing,"given the choice between something and nothing when it comes to accountability from our employees... you want nothing?"
