The Canadian military and the RCMP have been given special authorization to jam radio and cellphone signals during the G8 Summit next week and the Popes visit to Canada in July.Its the first time police or the military have ever been allowed to block signals, an official said.The authorization allows the Department of National Defence and the RCMP to use jamming devices around Calgary and Kananaskis, Alta., from June 17 to June 29 for the summit of leaders from Group of Eight nations. They will have the same power to jam signals in Toronto from July 16 to July 31 -- the Pope is scheduled to arrive in Canada July 23 and depart July 29, with three Toronto appearances in between.RCMP spokesman Corporal Benoît Desjardins said jamming is an important part of the security measures for both events.
