You Canucks sound like you have the right idea behind the cameras. Install them for a specific purpose, place many signs warning of them, don't change anything else about the road except install the camera, and use the funds for a specific cause.

Unlike the US where there's no warning and the locals who operate them are often caught gaming the roads around the cameras to encourage tickets. Examples abound of yellow lights set dangerously short (2 seconds or less) and speed limits being lowered excessively.
