“Taser Changes go Ahead,” an article published in Alberta News in February, indicates that the RCMP is moving forward and will introduce some changes previously described in the structure of the 2011 Police Manual The framework is currently under review and will subsequently be reviewed and approved by the Attorney General of Alberta. The 16 recommendations made by the Braidwood survey, including annual retraining, monthly quality and adherence audits, as well as updated procedures based on minimizing any potentially adverse effects on the subject's health, should be reflected in the final version of the manual. for 2011. The Alberta Solicitor General's establishment of the project demonstrates a significant improvement over previous perspectives on the dangers of conductive energy weapons, commonly known as Tasers. As a result, it is clear that improvements must be instituted within Canadian society regarding issues related to adverse health effects, design flaws of the devices themselves, and policing policies. The issue of conductive energy devices (CEDs), also known as conductive energy weapons (CEWs), has been at the forefront since the devices' introduction into the Canadian market in 2001. The device more popularly known as the Taser was allegedly responsible of numerous deaths caused by overuse, design flaws and lack of police training. Furthermore, following increased media coverage of the issue by non-profit organizations such as Amnesty International, which began in late 2007, and the Canadian Civil Liberties Association in 2010, the use of such weapons has undergone significant changes in the implementation of the device by the police. , codes of practice governing data processing equipment...... half of the document ...... number of problems reported by the Taser in the last ten years. In conclusion, it is clear that although Taser technology in its infancy has encountered many problems, the fact that this technology has not been withdrawn from the market is a testament to its usefulness to law enforcement agencies around the world. Furthermore, although the problem is complicated, urgent and requires significant mobilization of state resources and public participation, as well as the deaths of innocent civilians, the issue is solvable. As has happened in the past history of Taser failures, the technology can and will be renewed as society must play catch-up to fully optimize the use of the technology to achieve its goal. In the case of Tasers it is about providing a non-lethal alternative to apprehending suspects, saving lives at every stage of the process, both suspects and innocents.
