"Use of force is a necessary and sometimes unavoidable part of policing. Police officers are lawfully permitted to use force in the lawful performance of their duties. How much force is determined by the behaviour of the subject which officers respond to accordingly. Force is not arbitrarily decided by the officer and force must be reasonable under the circumstances. @ChiefDavisSPS explains further on @YourTVSarnia We are going to encounter those people that dont want to comply that wont do what they are told that are breaking the law and that the police have the authority in law to use force"

"Excellent response by @SarniaPolice officers in effecting this arrest safely. The presence of these weapons and the accused's behavior could easily have had tragic consequences. Officers are expected to make split-second decisions and the use of force is dictated by the circumstances and demonstrated behavior of the subject. In those split seconds officers do not have the luxury of hindsight. We support our officers in making these life-and-death decisions with effective training modern equipment and access to information.
