Semi-related question: To what extent do Calgary police (and RCMP) use dashboard cameras? In Europe and the US they seem to be quite common (the TV show "Police, Camera, Action" was nearly entirely footage from in-car cameras from police. And it was awesome.), but you don't often see footage from Canada.

I don't know whether or not it would be efficient or practical to retain footage for what is ultimately a small financial penalty and no demerits, but it sure would silence any appeal from those who felt that they were driving just fine, that it is nothing more than a cash cow, etc.
