Local RCMP could have another tool at their disposal in the future.
Dauphin RCM Sergeant Scott Linklater says body cameras could be added to officers at some point in the future.
"The RCMP is in testing mode right now, they have a couple of models that they are testing to see how they are going. It could be a few months or it could be a few years, I am not sure."
Linklater thinks officers will welcome the addition.
"It is an actual recording of what they see and what has been going on. I think they are looking forward to it because sometimes they are accused of doing something wrong, when they have not. This will very much clear that up, and it also holds them accountable and makes sure they are doing the right things and saying the right things."
