According to Sousa, W., Ready, J., & Ault, M., (2010), the use of conductive energy devices, or CEDs, to regulate or pacify aggressive suspects has become a more common practice across North America. However, there is growing controversy over the use of Tasers. Police departments say they can incapacitate suspects without causing physical harm and/or distress. When in reality there have been several studies conducted showing that some deaths have been linked to the use of tasers Sousa, W., Ready, J., & Ault, M. (2010). Just eight years ago, Canada once again experienced what conductive energy devices are truly capable of. On October 13, 2007, Robert Dziekanski left Poland to join his mother in Canada. Upon entering the Vancouver airport to meet his mother, Robert was sitting and/or sleeping in the off-limits area of ​​the baggage carousel. After the Canadian Border Service Agency escorted Robert to the waiting area, he became aggressive, pounding on the door and yelling to get him back on the airport baggage carousel. At this time, four officers of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, or RCMP, were called for assistance. Officers used the Taser on Mr Dziekanski a total of four times before he lost consciousness and died at the scene. An autopsy also revealed that Robert Dziekanski's death may be directly linked to the military's use of force
