East Vancouver's queer member of Parliament, Libby Davies, is calling for a code of conduct for security forces during the 2010 Winter Olympic Games.
A spokesperson for the Games' Integrated Security Unit (ISU) says Davies will need to provide a letter detailing what form of code she would like to see.
"We would provide a response," promises ISU spokesperson Cpl Jen Allan.
Davies says such a code should be printed and circulated. She says it could be a popular tool for holding the more than 14,000 police, military and private security officers accountable for their behaviour during the Games.
