The RCMP began field-testing cameras last year and the national rollout will begin on Nov. 18 .

The force expects the cameras to lead to “greater accountability and public trust, better interactions between the police and the public, improved evidence-gathering and quick resolution to public complaints.

The Liberal government has allocated $238.5 million over six years and $50 million in ongoing funding for the cameras.
