    I’ll put it simple.

    American cops are not equivalent to Canadian cops. US cops use tax payer money to pay lawsuits but are allowed a special police union as well. No other public servants get a union to do their bidding while tax payers foot the bill.

    Open the channels. What’s there to hide. In emergency events, yes it could be an issue. But people also need to know where serious events might be occurring in their areas.

      I’d much rather have some real accountability measures than the accidental accountability occasionally provided by broadcasting their communications.
