An EKOS survey undertaken in May 2010 found that, while there has been a recent surge in awareness of police review bodies, only 3 per cent could name the Commission. However, the survey revealed that 70 per cent of respondents had moderate to high confidence in the bodies responsible for overseeing the activities of Canada’s law enforcement and security agencies.
