In order to track and prevent change the past (and probably future), Kiera joins the Vancouver Police Department and uses the skills of a young technical expert, Alec Sadler (Erik Knudsen), both from the past track Liber8 agents and provide the information and contacts necessary to operate in this despite his lack of formal credentials.The future is a dystopian 2077 in which the world's governments have collapsed, and corporations now dominate the planet, the institution of a police state high surveillance and elimination of many basic social freedoms.

The first possibility is supported by the fact that the 2077 version of Alec Sadler was the only witness to the escape of Liber8 seemed totally shocked as events unfolded early in episode one.
