Letter to the Editor, Globe and Mail:

Toronto -- In Ontario, every time an officer uses force in the course of his or her duty, including the use of a taser, the officer must file a detailed "Use of Force" report with the supervisor. All officers who are trained to use tasers - and currently in Ontario, only front-line supervisors and members of tactical teams are allowed to use these less-lethal weapons - must undergo extensive training at the Ontario Police College; training that is approved by Ontario's Ministry of the Community Safety and Correctional Services.
