Thank you, Mr. Chair; and thank you to all our guests for joining us today.
My questions are coming from Richmond, British Columbia. I'm concerned about this and the use of AI. As you know, in British Columbia, we have a strong BIPOC community, predominantly Asian and South Asian. We also heard from a witness the other day about a flag that the VPD is using AI.
My question is directed to Dr. McPhail. Vancouver Police Chief Adam Palmer assured the police board in April 2021 that his officers will not use facial recognition technology for investigations until a policy is in place.
Do you know if any FRT policy has been put forward to the police services board?
