Yes

 @9ZV824KConservativefrom Ontario  agreed…4wks4W

It makes everything so much more convenient and much less time consuming. As technology progresses, this accuracy will only sharpen as more sets of eyes will be put on board to this technology.

 @B25VRS2from Ontario  disagreed…6 days6D

There has been instances of POC wrongfully targeted by this technology. I don't trust it at all

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...1mo1MO

No, it sets a dangerous precedent for government control over citizens

 @ISIDEWITHasked…3mos3MO

Do you think facial recognition could make your community safer, or would it just make you feel more controlled?

Way too much overreach. The use of this software can be beneficial, however as a "monitoring" tool to prevent "crime" as it happens, it would be very damaging to communities and be used unethically and for the gain of those in power

 @9TX39QZfrom Ontario  answered…3mos3MO

Facial recognition helps police quickly identify suspects by scanning faces in real-time or analyzing camera footage, aiding in crime prevention and locating missing persons or known criminals.

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...1mo1MO

Yes, but only if it’s tightly regulated and used with transparency

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...1mo1MO

No, I trust the technology but not the humans that could misuse it

 @9ZV824KConservativefrom Ontario  disagreed…4wks4W

The technology itself poses risks as well. Not too long ago, two Asian coworkers were able to unlock the same iPhone because they looked very similar. Signifying that the problem relies in the error-making technology itself.

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...1mo1MO

Yes, but only targeting criminal hotspots to protect vulnerable communities

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...1mo1MO

 @B262NSJConservativefrom Ontario  answered…5 days5D

No, this would be too expensive to implement and if humans get older, the face recognition might not work.

 @9NGVW5Nfrom British Columbia  answered…7mos7MO

The seems like it would turn into a privacy thing where everyone would end up having their privacy violated

 @9MV4GBFfrom Ontario  answered…7mos7MO

I think they should do it but only for criminal detection software, like if someone commited a crime in the past, their face should be added to a list for detection and reconnasenice for criminal behavior

 @9MSXW7RNew Democraticfrom Ontario  answered…7mos7MO

 @9XPF7TCNew Democraticanswered…2mos2MO

As long as the system can only recognize the faces of wanted criminals or missing persons and doesn't collect any facial data.

 @9WGXHQLfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

They should accuse facial recognition for the roads where the lights are but they shouldn't have that if there's no lights and there's just houses.

 @9W9YG5Kfrom Nova Scotia  answered…2mos2MO

No, and legislate a law that disallows using facial recognition for mass surveillance, as this violates everyone's privacy.

 @9VSPPZLfrom Saskatchewan  answered…3mos3MO

like ai this should only be used in goverment facilities and (if the business allows it) businesses around the world.

 @9TD8FMRfrom British Columbia  answered…3mos3MO

Maybe, this is something I'm on the fence about. On one hand it would help a lot with identifying those that do crime but on the other I personally and I'm sure others feel like this, it would feel like an invasion of privacy.

 @9S9R2T4from British Columbia  answered…4mos4MO

This could be the worst thing that you could do to a country of freedom. Have a look at any country that has incorporated this and you sure would not wanna live there.

 @9RZPX67from Alberta  answered…5mos5MO

 @9RW65Z4from Ontario  answered…5mos5MO

Yes, But only to match faces to Identification Cards for purposes of missing people

 @9RQNPMRfrom Nova Scotia  answered…5mos5MO

 @9RKDWR4from Ontario  answered…5mos5MO

Only technology that specifically, and only recognizes the faces of wanted criminals, suspected terrorists etc, not technology that recognizes the face of every citizen.

 @9RFSJMHIndependentfrom New Brunswick  answered…5mos5MO

 @9RCQVYVLiberalfrom New Brunswick  answered…5mos5MO

 @9RBXNLDfrom Quebec  answered…5mos5MO

 @9QZCYDNfrom Ontario  answered…5mos5MO

I think they should use the technology but they shouldn't have mass surveillance on everyone all the time

 @9QTMDJTConservativefrom Ontario  answered…6mos6MO

No, not until facial recognition is more constant and doesn't mess up/miss-ID people.

 @9QQG9Z8from Ontario  answered…6mos6MO

 @9P8NRFMNew Democratic from Alberta  answered…6mos6MO

Yes, but this should not be the only method of identification. For example, in order to participate in Canadian elections the voter must present at least two different forms of identification that contain the individual's name, date of birth, address, etc.

 @9NK2RH9from Alberta  answered…7mos7MO

 @ISIDEWITHasked…3mos3MO

Who should be held responsible if facial recognition technology is used to discriminate or unfairly target individuals?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…3mos3MO

How would you respond if someone else benefited from facial recognition, but it violated your own privacy or values?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…3mos3MO

In a world where every public camera could recognize you, do you feel more secure or more vulnerable?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…3mos3MO

What might be the impact of facial recognition technology on people who are unfairly treated or targeted in society?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…3mos3MO

If facial recognition could prevent crimes but also gathered information on innocent people, would that be an acceptable trade-off?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…3mos3MO

How do you balance the need for safety with the risk of compromising personal freedom if such technology becomes widespread?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…3mos3MO

Can you imagine a situation where facial recognition might help you in a positive way, and if so, what would that scenario look like?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…3mos3MO

How would you feel if every time you walked into a public place, your face was instantly recognized and logged?

 @9TSTBDYfrom British Columbia  answered…3mos3MO

 @ISIDEWITHasked…3mos3MO

Do you believe there should be limits on when and where technology like this is used, and if so, what should those limits be?
