Loblaw is launching a pilot program that will see employees at two Calgary locations don body-worn cameras in an effort to increase safety.

"Violent encounters at retail locations across the country have increased dramatically in recent years," explained Loblaw Companies Ltd. in a statement to CTV News.

"By piloting body cameras, we continue to do what we can to protect our customers and team."

The participating Calgary stores are the Real Canadian Superstore in the East Village on Sixth Avenue S.E., and the Shoppers Drug Mart next door.

Wait so according to that quote, if increased police presence in public spaces creates increased violence, the answer is... more police in public spaces? And therefore more violence... This feels insane.
