The Royal Canadian Mountain Police unit in Saskatchewan intends to take part in the Violence Disclosure Protection Act, also known as Clare's Law, according to Yahoo News. The act allows law enforcement to issue warnings to people if they're in a partnership with an individual who has a history of violence or abusive behavior. Saskatchewan's RCMP was initially not cleared to take part in the law due to a breach of Section 8 of Canada's Privacy Act.
