CCLA BLAST GOVERNMENT OVER RCMP TASER DEATH

Following the death of a Polish immigrant who had been tasered by the RCMP at the Vancouver airport, CCLA Public Safety Project Director Graeme Norton rapped the federal government for its continuing failure to create an independent audit system for the national police force. “If we had had such a body, it may have been able to act as an early warning system to identify taser-related problems before a tragedy like this occurred,” Norton said.
