The permissions need names.
Vancouver is the first ledger in this atlas with a government-documented province-wide police records exchange and a locally documented live-video command workflow. VPD names “partner agencies” in its Fusus coordination claim, but does not identify those agencies or publish their viewing, search or administrative permissions.
Provincial law names Vancouver among the first DEMS adopters and requires all covered law-enforcement services to use the system by September 2027. Common storage does not establish that one service can open another's evidence.
BC DEMS regulation ↗VPD says body-camera and drone feeds reach its Operations Command Centre and responding officers. Fusus is described as coordinating across partner agencies, but the agencies and their direct access are not published.
