The department began to use a computer model in 2018 called "advanced data analytics" to sort cases and help officers make eligibility decisions. It claims the system can speed processing by up to 87 per cent.

87%... Well this is not worrying at all!

A 2018 Chinook user manual released under access to information suggests an officer can use the system to examine up to 1,000 cases at the same time.

Yep, nothing to worry about, definitely.
