    Body Worn Cameras Rollout in Collingwood and The Blue Mountains

    Date:

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    (COLLINGWOOD, ON) – On February 03, 2025, members of the Ontario Provincial Police in Central Region commenced training on the new Axon 4 Body Worn Cameras (BWC). The cameras are produced by Axon Enterprises (formerly Taser International) and are part of the OPP’s broader strategy to bring technology to the day-to-day operations of police in Ontario.

    The officers of the Collingwood and The Blue Mountains OPP are proud to announce that officers have started receiving their BWC for immediate use in the community. Members of the public can now expect to see these new Body Worn Cameras attached to the front of officers’ uniforms.

    The BWC devices are linked to the OPP’s current Digital Evidence Management system that collects, manages, and shares video evidence. Central Region OPP vehicles already have in-car cameras (ICC) and Automatic Licence Plate Recognition (ALPR) software installed. The footage that is collected is automatically stored in the cloud-based system.     

    Members of the Collingwood and The Blue Mountains OPP welcome the implementation and use of any tools or technologies that support better evidence and transparency during interactions with citizens. Body Worn Cameras enhance public and officer safety in the communities we serve.

    Thanks, Wes.

    VIDEO: 張哲瀚Zhang Zhehan 紀錄片《八月》

    《八月》是中國演員張哲瀚首次擔任導演的紀錄片,2024年4月14日上線。 該片記錄了張哲瀚在2021年8月突遇網路風暴,演藝人生頃刻被顛倒後的一次自我療愈之旅。 當舞臺與燈光不再,當事業與生活被網路上的不實資訊和惡意扭曲震碎,張哲瀚選擇在兩年後的8月,以自己熱愛的方式向著真實的世界重新出發。從香格里拉到拉薩的騎行之路上,他遇見雪山和冰川,遇見草木牛羊,遇見許多個普通而動人的面孔;他傾聽天地之聲,傾聽陌生人的故事,也傾聽內心的痛和愛。 曾經的8月還未終結,以後的8月依然會來。而這一個《八月》意義非常。 #zhangzhehan_super3 #張哲瀚 #張哲瀚八月 #紀錄片八月 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLwMG6XoJ34&t=11s
