The head of the Canada’s police chiefs association says they are guided by “outdated and inadequate” laws that were never designed to take on the current criminal landscape that no longer respects international borders.
Thomas Carrique, president of the Association of Chiefs of Police, said police would have been in a better place to “disrupt” transnational crime, if the federal government had listened to his group in 2001, when it last proposed legislative changes.
