Video Surveillance |
This damming document of the abuse of video
surveillance comes from British Columbia’s own WCAT manuals. It was used
to argue their right to see surveillance done in a WCAT Claim. We
apologies for the quality, and as soon as we can get a better copy we will
replace this one. This is an “as is copy” and is only as good as we
received it.
