Résumé

This report is in two parts. The first part describes the information on Taser gun technology gathered by the Committee, the effects of this technology on the health and safety of persons subjected to it, its role in police work and the guidelines governing its use by the RCMP. The first part also sets out the reforms proposed by the Committee to ensure more transparent, safer and effective use of the Taser conducted energy weapon. The second part of the report deals with the death of Robert Dziekanski on October 14, 2007. It contains a summary of the information obtained by the Committee during its visits to Vancouver International Airport as well as the Committee's observations and recommendations about the facilities and services available in Canada's international airports.
