C
Agency
in
the
city
of
Ottawa,
this
declaration
serves
notice
to
our
residents
that
we
will
do
everything
in
our
power
to
take
back
the
streets
of
Ottawa
from
the
criminal
activity
and
hooliganism
that
has
transpired
over
the
last
nine
days.
Initially,
this
was
labeled
as
a
protest
against
the
public
health
policies.
C
The
democratically
elected
governments
at
the
provincial
and
federal
levels
have
enacted
to
protect
us
from
the
deadly
covid-19
pandemic,
but
sadly,
the
demonstration
has
turned
into
an
aggressive
and
hateful
occupation
of
our
neighborhoods,
which
has
absolutely
nothing
to
do
with
the
trucker's
quarrel
against
vaccine
mandates,
enacted
by
the
governments
of
Ontario
and
Canada
I.
Imagine
most
of
these
people
would
react
with
horror
if
enough.
C
People
are
living
in
fear
and
are
terrified
and
they've
now
been
subjected
to
the
non-stop
honking
of
large
trucks
for
nine
days,
which
is
tantamount
to
psychological
warfare.
They
have
harassed
and
spat
on
grocery
clerks
for
simply
asking
them
to
wear
a
mask.
The
staff
and
women
seeking
emergency
shelter
at
Cornerstone
are
experiencing
anxiety
and
distress
to
the
point
where
many
clients
have
had
to
be
admitted
to
the
hospital
to
seek
help.
C
The
delivery
of
critical
chemotherapy
medication
was
canceled
for
a
woman
living
in
downtown
Ottawa,
because
the
delivery
company
didn't
think
they
could
get
it
to
her.
Yesterday,
we
learned
of
a
horrific
story
that
clearly
demonstrates
the
malicious
intent
of
these
protesters
occupying
our
city
at
5
a.m,
and
this
was
captured
on
the
building's
video
on
Sunday
morning,
the
lobby
of
the
building
and
lives
on
this
group
Street,
where
they
proceeded
to
light
a
fire
starter
bricks
near
the
elevators
before
taping
up
the
door
handle,
so
residents
would
struggle
to
get
out
during
a
fire.
C
Thankfully,
no
one
was
hurt,
but
this
story
could
have
ended
very
very
differently.
It's
extremely
disturbing
and
points
to
a
desire
to
harm
our
residents,
an
obvious
Criminal
Intent,
which
I
know
the
Ottawa
Police
arson
unit
is
now
investigating.
I
cannot
stress
this
enough
and
I
hope
this
message
gets
through
to
the
truckers.
The
lives
of
an
individual
innocent
people
are
at
stake
right
now,
right
here.
C
C
Damaging
demonstrations
I
want
to
thank
you
and
I.
Ask
you
to
continue
to
show
patience
and
courage
during
these
very
challenging
times.
The
behavior
we've
witnessed
severely
contradicts
Canadian
values
and
it's
not
represented
of
the
good
men
and
women
in
the
trucking
industry,
who
are
currently
hard
at
work,
making
sure
our
grocery
store
shelves
are
full
and
make
no
mistake.
This
protest
is
not
hurting
the
government
of
Canada
or
the
province
of
Ontario,
and
you
have
no
sympathy
left
here
to
advance
in
the
city
of
Ottawa.
C
C
It's
very
easy
to
criticize
the
work
from
the
comfort
of
our
offices
or
living
rooms
or
behind
our
computers.
When
we
really
don't
know
how
difficult
it
is
for
them
every
day
to
respond
to
so
many
dangerous
circumstances
in
bitter
miserable
cold
weather,
many
of
them
have
worked
extremely
long
hours
for
consecutive
days
and
they
have
to
show
a
lot
of
restraint
while
being
far
outnumbered
by
aggressive
protesters.
Looking
for
a
fight
and
what
they
need
from
us
now
is
our
gratitude
and
encouragement,
because
very
few
of
us
would
volunteer
to
take
their
place
today.
C
Most
of
us
do
not
worry
about
whether
or
not
we
might
get
home
for
dinner,
but
our
brave
men
and
women
in
uniform,
as
do
their
spouses
and
children,
watching
this
standoff
on
television.
They
think
that
the
possibility,
every
time
they
enter
a
volatile
situation
that
often
entails
large
numbers
of
individuals
who
might
have
access
to
weapons
or
crowbars
Chief
slowly
in
the
Ottawa
Police
Service,
have
been
doing
everything
in
their
power
to
bring
this
Administration
to
a
safe
and
peaceful
end
quickly
and
safely
as
possible.
C
Over
the
course
of
the
last
few
days,
progress
has
been
made
towards
reclaiming
parts
of
our
city
on
Saturday
officers
were
able
to
clear
Confederation
Park,
which
has
now
been
secured
and
fenced
dangerous
stockpiles
of
gas
and
propane
3
200
liters
of
gasoline,
as
well
as
Vehicles,
were
seized
when
Ottawa
Public
Police
Service
officers
descended
on
the
baseball
stadium
parking
lot
yesterday
evening.
Anyone
caught
trying
to
replenish
supplies
in
the
red
zones
is
now
being
arrested
and
charged
with
aiding
in
the
legal
activity.
C
Given
the
scope
and
scale
of
the
collection
of
large
trucks
that
are
now
occupying
our
downtown
core,
of
which
there
are
400
to
500
remaining
as
of
today
and
the
potential
for
violence,
as
our
officers
engage
in
increasingly
hostile
confrontations
to
shut
down
the
supply
lines
of
gas,
propane
and
other
Goods
more
boots
are
needed
on
the
ground.
Solitary.
C
I
fully
support
the
ass
made
by
our
chief
of
police
to
both
the
opp
and
the
RCMP
to
work
with
their
teams
and
other
police
services
across
the
country
to
help
us
end
this
Siege
in
the
heart
of
our
nation's
capital
and
in
our
residential
neighborhoods.
This
would
be
a
partnership
of
federal,
provincial
and
Municipal
forces.
Chief
slowly
will
provide
more
details
on
that
request
for
assistance
in
just
a
moment.
C
C
I
ask
that
you
not
take
our
requests
lightly,
as
the
situation
on
the
ground
remains
highly
volatile
and
the
demonstrators
are
vowing
to
stay
until
they
overturn
the
decisions
of
critically
elected
governments
both
on
Parliament
Hill
and
at
Queen's
Park.
In
order
to
assist
our
bottle
officers
and
their
challenging
task
of
ensuring
our
Municipal
bylaws
are
enforced.
The
city
has
asked
the
Chief
Justice
of
Ontario
to
increase
fines
for
many
unlawful
acts
we
have
witnessed
in
our
downtown
court.
C
The
request
was
to
increase
the
fines
for
idling
from
one
hundred
dollars
to
one
thousand
dollars
the
noise
bylaw
finds
from
490
dollars
to
one
thousand
dollars
and
the
fines
for
encumbering
a
roadway
from
350
dollars
to
one
thousand
dollars.
Chief
bylaw
officer,
Roger
Chapman,
has
confirmed
that
the
Chief
Justice
of
Ontario
was
supportive
of
our
request
and
is
committed
to
enacting
these
fire
fines
as
soon
as
possible.
C
I
want
to
take
this
opportunity
to
thank
all
members
of
council
who
are
feeling
the
stress
and
anguish
of
their
residents,
particularly
in
those
zones
where
demonstrations
are
at
their
highest.
That
includes
my
thanks
to
councilor
McKinney
in
Somerset
Ward
and
councilor
Fleury
and
Rito.
Vanier
I
also
want
to
thank
counselor
Deans
for
his
friendship
of
the
Ottawa
Police
Services
Board.
C
During
these
very
trying
times
now,
Council
will
hear
today
various
updates
on
how
things
are
unfolding
in
our
attempts
to
contain
and
end
this
demonstration,
I'll
call
First
on
Chief
slowly
to
provide
a
situational
update.
Inspired
the
last
few
days,
then
Steve
kalakis,
our
city
manager,
then
we'll
open
it
up
for
the
Motions
that
you've
presented
to
introduce
the
motions
and
then
we'll
go
into
questions
and
comments
and
statements
at
that
time.
So
Chief
slowly
the
floor
is
yours:
they'll
see.
B
Thank
you
very
much
mayor
merciful,
good
afternoon.
Council
I
want
to
thank
the
mayor
and
city
council
for
inviting
me
here
to
speak
with
you
today.
I
know
the
ongoing
unlawful
demonstrations
are
causing
each
of
you,
your
constituents,
in
fact
all
Ottawa
residents
and
business
owners,
employees
much
distress
as
they
are
causing
me
and
my
members.
This.
B
B
Unprecedented
unlawful
situation,
which
is
simply
unacceptable,
and,
quite
frankly,
unsustainable,
I've
heard
from
hundreds
of
residents
and
business
owners
in
the
areas
directly
impacted
by
the
downtown
demonstrations,
as
well
as
those
who
live
far
afield.
Who
must
travel
through
the
core?
Have
business
in
the
core?
Let's
go
to
medical
appointments
in
the
court
must
seek
social
services
and
not-for-profit
services
in
the
court.
B
We
are
doing
everything
we
can
on
a
daily
basis
to
acquire
more
resources
in
the
most
practical
and
immediately
impactful
way
and
as
they
become
available
and
are
deployed
in
our
streets.
We
redeploy
our
resources
to
provide
better
services
and
safety
to
the
immediately
impacted
areas,
as
well
as
to
the
rest
of
the
city.
As
of
this
morning,
I
can
report
the
following
activities
and
efforts.
B
Over
the
weekend,
the
end
of
the
GoFundMe
part
of
almost
10
million
dollars
denied
to
the
demonstrations
I
just
want
to
advise,
while
that
effort
was
successful,
almost
immediately
other
efforts
to
fundraise
other
platforms
around
which
funds
were
made
available
have
popped
up,
and
that
is
an
increasing
challenge,
a
significant
success
between
the
city
and
the
service
in
ending
the
GoFundMe.
But
there
needs
to
be
ongoing
efforts
at
all
three
levels
of
government
to
deny
funding
to
the
unlawful
demonstrations,
the
end
to
the
occupation
and
encampment
and
Confederation
Park.
B
There
were
additional.
There
was
an
additional
major
operation
over
the
last
24
hours
to
dismantle
the
Coventry
Road
staging
area,
which
included
arrests
of
seven
individuals
in
criminal
charges.
The
seizure
of
thousands
of
liters
of
propane
and
gasoline,
including
a
full
tanker
of
gas,
ongoing
investigations
and
ongoing
efforts
to
hold
that
property
that
we're
able
to
take
last
night.
B
Please
know
that
in
this
ensuing
hours
overnight,
there
have
been
several
major
efforts
by
demonstrators
to
reclaim
all
our
parts
of
Coventry
and
we
have
active
operations
to
secure
that
from
any
further
ability
to
stage
and
Supply
from
that
area.
We
are
trying
to
find
ways
to
fence
that
area
in
and
restrict
any
further
staging
ability
in
that
area
and
we're
working
with
our
city
Partners.
To
accomplish
that,
that
said,
the
size
and
number
of
trucks,
demonstrators
and
capability
has
been
significantly
reduced
over
the
past
week,
particularly
in
the
last
three
to
four
days.
B
What
we
anticipated
as
a
similar
or
even
larger
size
demonstration
from
Friday,
Saturday
and
Sunday,
was
significantly
reduced
in
the
area
of
50
to
60
percent.
The
previous
weekend,
Saw
3,
000
Vehicles,
enter
into
the
city
limits
three
thousand
trucks,
in
addition
to
thousands
of
other
vehicles.
This
weekend
we
saw
about
a
thousand
trucks.
The
previous
weekend,
numbers
were
as
high
as
10
to
15.
000
demonstrators
in
the
downtown
core
numbers
were
down
to
five
thousand,
including
counter
demonstrators.
B
The
amount
and
continuous
element
of
noise
threat
hate
harassment
that
the
downtown
court
experienced
the
previous
weekend
was
significantly
reduce,
still
unacceptably
high
traumatic
in
its
impact
and
a
need
to
eliminate
it
right
down
to
zero
as
quickly
as
possible.
But
the
word
is
out,
don't
come,
and
if
you
do
and
you
break
the
law,
there
will
be
consequences.
B
B
We
have
turned
up
the
heat
and
we've
quickly
reduced
the
number
of
trucks
and
demonstrators
in
our
city.
We
continue
to
deploy
all
available
offices.
There
are
no
days
off.
We
have
negotiated
a
change
in
our
Collective
Agreement,
with
the
cooperation
of
the
audible
Police
Association,
to
bring
all
of
our
officers
back
on
duty
in
order
to
maintain
the
Staffing
levels
that
we've
had
since
Friday,
and
that
has
been
significantly
the
reason
for
our
ability
to
deploy
extra
resources
for
enforcement
investigations
and
intelligence
operations.
This
is
not
sustainable.
B
We
have
from
the
RCMP
received
257
officers,
unfortunately,
the
vast
majority
of
which
are
required
by
the
RCMP
to
maintain
their
ability
to
protect
Parliament,
Hill
and
parliamentarians,
Rideau
Hall
and
the
governor
general,
as
well
as
the
prime
minister's
residence.
We
have
an
approximate
number
of
20
to
50
of
those
RCMP
officers
that
are
available
for
us
to
deploy
within
our
incident
command
structure.
That
is
a
significant
help.
That
is
not
enough
and
it
is
not
sustainable
and
we're
seeking
additional
resources
from
the
Ontario
Provincial
Police.
B
We
have
received
on
average
over
the
last
week,
100
officers
per
day
again
very
professional
officers
from
across
the
province.
They've
come
here
well
equipped
with
vehicles,
I.T
equipment,
supervisory
support
and
logistical
support
and
they're
embedded
within
our
incident
command
and
have
been
incredibly
effective
in
helping
us
with
our
core
operations.
We
are
asking
for
more.
It
is
not
enough,
it
is
not
sustainable.
B
I
want
to
thank
commissioner
Brenda,
lucky
and
OPP
commissioner
Tom
Creek
for
their
efforts
today,
I've
been
in
daily
Communications,
twice
and
sometimes
three
times
daily
Communications
to
coordinate
our
efforts
and
to
increase
resources
have
been
incredibly
adaptable
and
generous
with
what
they've
done
so
far,
but
we
need
more.
We
are
incredibly
grateful
for
the
support
of
all
of
our
partners.
I
will
not
go
through
the
full
list
of
Municipal
Police
agencies
that
have
provided
support
to
us,
but
they
come
from
Eastern
Ontario,
the
gtha
as
far
away
as
Niagara
region.
B
We
are
incredibly
grateful
for
those
resources.
Today
we
received
a
letter
from
parliamentary
protection
services
and
Public
Safety
Canada
for
the
additional
Logistics
of
cement
barriers
and
flatbed
trucks
to
move
those
barriers
to
contain
the
ground
that
we
are
taking
through
enforcement
operations.
B
We
need
everyone
to
do
what
they
can
to
support
an
end
to
this
demonstration
on
Saturday,
the
chair
of
the
Police
Services
Board
councilor,
Diane
Deans
asked
me
an
especially
called
board
meeting
what
resources
we
need
to
try
to
reach
a
conclusion
to
this
demonstration.
She
gave
me
and
my
team
until
yesterday
to
provide
a
list.
B
We
briefed
the
chair
yesterday
as
well
as
the
mayor,
and
today
we
have
provided
a
formal
letter
to
the
office
of
the
mayor
for
him
to
share
with
the
solicitor
general
of
Ontario,
as
well
as
the
public
State,
as
well
as
Public
Safety
Canada.
For
for
the
resources,
we
are
grateful
for
the
chair,
our
board
and
Council
for
their
ongoing
support.
We
are
grateful
for
the
mayor
for
hit
and
his
team
for
their
leadership.
B
We
are
requesting
of
the
city
of
Ottawa
to
make
changes
to
bylaws
such
as
deny
noise
bylaw
parking
bylaws
that
can
be
done
immediately
or
in
the
next
few
days.
We've
heard
some
of
that
information
already
in
the
mayor's
comments
and
I
suspect,
we'll
hear
further
from
city
city
manager,
catalakis
and
his
excellent
team
we'd
like
the
city
to
implement
daily
Emergency,
Operations
Center
meetings
and
to
coordinate
a
whole
of
City
response.
We've
had
Excellence
I
want
to
repeat
excellent
cooperation,
coordination
and
communication
with
Steve
panalakis,
the
city
city,
council,
the
mayor
and
his
staff.
B
B
Many
of
our
officers
have
gone
more
than
14
days
in
a
row
without
a
day
off
often
working
10,
12
14
18
hour
days
in
the
coldest
winter
we've
had
in
10
years,
the
bulk
of
which,
in
minus
20
and
30
degrees,
Celsius
yeah,
to
maintain
current
operations
and
take
meaningful
action
in
The,
Red,
Zone
occupation
areas,
as
well
as
in
the
active
demonstration
areas
that
are
most
traumatic
and
most
troubling
to
our
residents
and
businesses.
We
are
asking
for
an
additional
1800
police
and
civilian
personnel,
1800
police
and
civilian
personnel.
B
B
Although
third,
although
policing
is
part
of
the
solution
to
this
demonstration,
is
not
the
only
part,
we
are
requesting
that
the
city
utilize
its
convening
power
to
engage
financial
institutions,
insurance
companies
and
associations,
gas
companies
and
associations,
trucking
companies
and
associations,
local
bias.
Anything
that
can
be
done
to
restrict
the
material
and
financial
support
going
to
the
demons
phase.
B
I
want
to
again
Express
as
many
on
this
call
already
have
and
I'm
sure,
as
we
go
through
each
Council.
Each
of
you
will
Express
on
behalf
of
your
constituents
and
your
families.
This
is
unacceptable
and
it
has
hurt
our
community.
It
has
hurt
families,
it
has
hurt
individuals,
it
has
hurt
members
of
this
service
and
we
need
to
find
a
safe,
lawful,
sustainable
solution
to
this
one
well
beyond
the
resources
of
the
Ottawa,
Police
Service
or
the
city
of
Ottawa.
B
The
city
should
be
proud
of
every
single
one
of
them.
I
want
to
thank
our
police
and
Justice
Partners
eastern
Ontario
Crown
RCMP
OPP,
the
Municipal
Police
agencies
who've
come
together
and
meaningfully
helped
offers
are
flowing
in
for
mayors
of
other
jurisdictions,
Chiefs
of
police
of
other
jurisdictions
from
the
Far
West,
the
Far
East
and
the
far
south
is
province.
B
We
have
made
a
very
big
request
today:
1800
police
and
civilian
Personnel
immediately
and
sustainably
directly
under
our
police
and
jurisdiction
incident
command
control
until
the
end
of
these
demonstrations
in
the
city.
We
know
these
asks
are
significant
and
I
want
to
ensure
each
of
you
that
we
will
continue
to
do
everything
in
our
power
and
with
the
resources
at
our
disposal
to
end
this
demonstration.
B
With
that
in
mind,
anything
this
Council
can
do
to
help
us
to
fulfill
any
or
all
of
these
requests
will
make
a
material
difference
in
our
ability
to
put
an
end
to
this
unlawful
demonstration
with
that,
I
am
here
with
my
command
members,
deputy
chief
Trish
Ferguson,
deputy
chief
Steve
Bell
Chief,
Administration
officer,
Blair
dunker.
We
are
here
to
answer
your
questions
and
provide
an
operational
update
and
answers
to
anything
you
may
have
I.
B
Do
want
to
just
ask
the
mayor
and
the
council:
there
may
be
a
requirement
given
the
scope
of
our
operations
today
for
me
to
excuse
one
or
both
of
Deputy
Bell
or
Deputy
Ferguson.
Should
they
be
required
for
operational
exits,
please
I
will
make
myself
available
for
as
long
as
Council
6,
but
my
operational
commanders
may
have
to
leave
at
an
earlier
time
with
that
Mary.
Thank
you.
I
turned
things
back
over
to
you,
sir
right.
C
So
you're
muted
Steve
that.
G
Hasn't
happened
to
me
for
what
half
an
hour
before
that
happened
seems
to
happen
regularly.
My
apologies
I
want
to
thank
you,
mayor
and
I
want
to
thank
Chief
slowly
for
his
comments.
We've
been
working
very
closely
supporting
Ottawa
Police
throughout
this
effort,
and
it's
been.
It's
been
a
very
effective
partnership.
G
The
entire
time,
however,
I'd
like
to
give
general
manager
kimayot
of
our
emergency
Protective
Services
an
opportunity
to
provide
some
comments,
he's
been
leading
our
efforts
as
one
of
the
senior
leadership,
leadership,
team
members
of
of
the
city
and
him
and
his
team
have
been
doing
remark,
work
and
support
in
the
EOC
and
in
the
national
capital,
regional
Command
Center,
where
we're
integrated
with
our
policing
partners
and
other
partners
managing
this
event.
So
Kim.
If
you'd
like
to
say
a
few
brief
comments.
I
K
I
D
I
The
EOC
is
working
closely
with
the
Ottawa
Hospital
Ottawa
Public
Health,
the
city's
only
human
needs
task
force
and
a
range
of
other
Community
Partners
to
ensure
that
the
needs
of
health
care
workers,
hospital
patients
and
those
most
vulnerable
in
our
community
continue
to
be
addressed.
The
EEOC
also
supports
continuation
of
operations
for
the
LRT,
which
is
providing
vital,
Transportation
Lifeline
for
Ottawa
residents.
The
LRT
was
able
to
operate
without
any
station
closures
all
weekend.
I
I
I
D
C
Get
the
Motions
on
the
floor
and
then
we'll
come
back
to
deal
with
them
one
at
a
time,
and
if
you
have
any
questions
for
the
the
chief
or
any
other
city
official,
that
would
be
the
time
to
do
it.
So
the
first
motion
request
for
support
to
Federal
and
provincial
governments
from
councilor
dudas
signed
up
by
councilor
King
counselor
dude
asks,
if
you'd
like
to
introduce
your
motion.
Please
I'll
see.
L
Thank
you
very
much.
Mr
Mayor.
We
awfully
support
the
right
to
protest
as
Canadians.
However,
what
we
are
seeing
in
the
streets
in
downtown
Ottawa
is
categorically
not
a
protest,
and
it
is
important
that
the
distinction
be
made
between
actions
and
beliefs
by
all
means
people
are
allowed
to
write
letters,
call
politicians
and
yes,
even
protests,
have
your
voice
voice
heard
if
you're
opposed
to
a
government
policy.
What
you
do
not
get
to
do
is
hold
your
fellow
citizens
hostage
as
leverage
for
your
demands.
L
To
date,
the
Ottawa
Police
and
we've
just
heard
from
our
chief,
their
resources
have
been
focused
on
keeping
things
from
further
deteriorating
and
make
no
mistake.
There
are
individuals
within
this
group
that
are
looking
for
any
excuse
from
police.
We
saw
that
very
violence
erupt
in
Southern
Alberta,
when
the
police
moved
in
to
try
to
clear
the
blockade
that
was
on
a
rural
Highway
that
violence
repeating
in
downtown
Ottawa
would
be
absolutely
unthinkable.
L
L
We
also
have
to
be
mindful
of
the
message
we're
sending
today.
There
are
many
in
both
Canada
and
around
the
world,
watching
what
is
transpiring
on
our
streets
and
the
tactics
that
are
being
employed
by
these
individuals
risk
setting
a
very
dangerous
precedent
that
this
type
of
action
is
an
acceptable
and
effective
form
of
protest.
We
must
send
the
clear
and
unambiguous
message
that
it
is
absolutely
not.
L
They
seek
to
hold
the
city
of
Ottawa
hostage
as
leverage
against
the
federal
and
provincial
governments,
and
they
have
no
intention
of
ending
their
campaign
and
leaving
the
city
until
their
demands
are
met,
whereas
the
methods
used
by
these
individuals
to
illegally
occupy
the
city
of
Ottawa
and
terrorize
residents
and
businesses
utilize
unprecedented
tactics
that
have
no
place
in
a
free
and
Democratic
Society,
such
as
Canada
and
Mark.
An
intolerable
departure
from
what
could
be
considered.
L
Lawful
protests,
including
the
24-hour
blasting
of
air
horns,
tractor-trailers
blockading
streets,
makeshift
structures,
popping
up
Vehicles
driving
around
residential
streets,
with
open
tanks
of
fuel,
numerous
propane
tanks
being
stashed
away
under
tarps,
and
the
widespread
harassment
of
residents,
business
and
journalists,
whereas
the
use
of
racist
and
anti-semitic
flags
and
xenophobic
symbols.
The
mockery
of
indigenous
culture,
the
harassment
and
dignity
denigration
of
residents
within
the
2s
lgbtqi
class
Community,
as
well
as
the
defacing
of
national
and
Indigenous
monuments,
have
left
residents
fearful
for
their
safety.
L
Whereas
since
their
arrival
in
Ottawa,
the
occupation
has
been
spreading
out
to
other
parts
of
the
city.
The
staging
area
is
now
in
Suburban
areas
and
trucks
blocking
residential
streets,
as
well
as
into
the
byword
market,
far
from
the
Parliamentary
Precinct,
where
demonstrations
are
not
only
anticipated
but
they're
welcomed,
whereas
the
Ottawa
Police
Chief
has
been
clear.
This
occupation
is
so
unprecedented.
The
Auto
police
service
does
not
have
the
resources
to
adequately
address
the
situation.
L
If
this
Siege
is
going
to
end,
it
will
require
more
than
just
those
resources
from
Ops,
whereas
the
tax
tactics
used
by
these
individuals
set
a
very
dangerous
precedent
and
regardless
of
the
cause
or
beliefs.
This
is
an
unacceptable
departure
from
lawful
forms
of
protests
that
cannot
be
condoned
or
allowed
to
continue,
whereas
the
city
of
Ottawa
does
not
have
the
power
The
Authority,
nor
the
jurisdiction
to
meet
the
demands
from
the
individual's
occupying
our
city.
C
Great,
thank
you.
If
I
could
just
remind
members
we're
just
introducing
the
Motions
we'll
come
back
one
at
a
time
to
speak
to
them.
So
if
we
could
just
stick
to
introducing
the
motion
and
then
and
leave
remarks
till
we
come
back
to
to
deal
with
the
specific
motion,
so
our
next
motion
is
by
also
by
counselor,
dude
I,
say
by
councilor
harder
request
for
support
Ottawa
business.
So
if
you
can
introduce
just
the
motion,
please
counselor.
Thank
you.
L
Whereas
per
the
survey
of
more
than
200
businesses
conducted
by
the
Ottawa
Coalition
of
business
Improvement
areas.
Almost
three
quarters
of
businesses
located
in
and
around
the
downtown
core
have
lost
Revenue
as
a
direct
result
of
the
occupation,
whereas
that
same
survey
found
that
just
over
half
of
those
businesses
will
not
be
able
to
recover
from
the
Lost
revenues,
whereas
roughly
40
percent
of
businesses,
mostly
retailers,
restaurants
and
services,
had
to
close
their
doors
for
the
safety
of
their
staff
and
patrons.
But
the
Rideau
Center's
closure
alone,
impacting
over
1
500.
L
C
L
Whereas
the
city
of
Ottawa
has
now
declared
a
state
of
emergency
in
response
to
the
continued
illegal
occupation
of
ottawa's
downtown
once
again,
this
is
the
same,
whereas
as
the
others
I'll
skip
through
that,
whereas
this
period
countless
residents
have
been
under
extraordinary
distress
and
for
those
who
suffer
from
anxiety,
have
been
victims
of
violence
or
arrived
as
refugees
from
more
torn
countries.
L
It
is
causing
additional
mental
health
issues,
whereas
agencies
directed
dedicated
to
supporting
ottawa's
most
vulnerable,
such
as
the
Shepherds
of
Good
Hope,
have
seen
volunteers
and
staff
harassed
and
even
assaulted,
as
well.
After
62
years
serving
ottawa's
most
at-risk
youth,
the
youth
services
Bureau
of
Ottawa,
had
to
shut
down
their
drop-in
center
for
the
first
time
in
their
history,
whereas
due
to
the
sheer
number
of
impacted,
Community
social
support
agencies,
organizations
that
are
dedicated
to
caring
for
ottawa's,
most
vulnerable
residents
pretends
the
extensive
and
prolonged
impact
this
occupation
will
have
on
Ottawa
residents
in
particular.
C
M
Municipal
taxpayers,
therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
Council
requests
the
mayor
right
to
the
Ontario
Premier
to
Proclaim,
enforce
schedule,
one
of
the
comprehensive
Ontario
Police
Services
act,
2019
to
allow
the
Ottawa
Police
Service
Board
and
the
solicitor
general
of
Ontario
to
charge
those
persons
responsible
for
causing
a
temporary
increase
in
the
cost
of
providing
adequate
and
effective
policing
in
the
city
of
Ottawa
those
increased
costs.
Thank
you.
Mr
Mayor.
C
N
For
myself
and
from
counselor
King,
whereas
since
on
or
about
Friday,
January
28th,
hundreds
of
trucks
and
other
vehicles,
as
well
as
hundreds
to
thousands
of
truck
drivers
and
other
individuals
at
any
given
time,
have
illegally
occupied
the
downtown
core.
And
whereas
on
January
29
2022,
the
city
of
ottawa's,
Emergency,
Operations
Center
entered
activated
operations
in
response
to
this
threat
and
whereas
on
February,
6
2022,
the
mayor
declared
a
state
of
emergency
in
Ottawa
pursuant
to
the
emergency
management
and
civil
protection
act.
N
And
whereas
the
city's
response
to
this
ongoing
emergency
continues
to
draw
on
the
resources
of
the
city's
operational
staff
and
Senior
leadership
team.
And
whereas
all
members
of
council,
but
particularly
those
whose
residents
are
directly
impacted
by
the
ongoing
and
illegal
occupation
of
the
downtown
core,
are
immediately
focused
on
efforts
to
support
the
residents
of
the
city
of
Ottawa
and
ensuring
their
ongoing
safety.
N
During
this
unprecedented
crisis
and
whereas
subsection
14
seven
of
the
procedure,
bylaw
provides
that
during
a
state
of
emergency,
Council
and
committee
meetings
may
be
convened
as
special
meetings
in
accordance
with
sections,
14
and
87
of
the
procedure.
Bylaw
and
subject
to
the
following
special
Provisions,
a
agendas
may
be
limited
to
items
that,
in
the
opinion
of
the
chair,
informed
by
operational
staff
and
the
clerk's
office
are
of
a
time
sensitive
nature
such
they
must
be
considered
during
the
emergency
period
and
B,
subject
to
the
minimum
notice.
N
Should
the
council
not
approve
them
by
February,
28th
and
March
13th
respectively,
and
it
is
staff's
intention
to
bring
forward
an
emergency
demolition
for
a
building
damaged
by
fire
at
323
daily,
which
must
be
approved
by
the
bhsc
and
council
at
the
earliest
opportunity.
Due
to
safety
issues,
therefore
be
it
resolved.
C
O
Menard
yeah
thanks
mayor
I'm,
just
waiting
for
it
to
go
up
on
the
screen
there
and
I've
got
two
motions
today
and
so
I
guess
start
with
the
idling
one
and
then
move
into
the
more
consequential
motion
on
on
island,
whereas
trucks
have
been
occupying
the
downtown
core
for
10
consecutive
days,
running
their
engines
continuously
for
extended
periods
of
time
and
exposing
residents
to
fumes
and
noise,
and
whereas
idling
Vehicles
contribute
to
greenhouse
gas
emissions
and
air
pollution
in
the
form
of
criteria.
O
Error,
contaminants,
which
are
responsible
for
15
300,
premature
deaths
annually
in
Canada,
with
500
of
those
taking
place
in
Ottawa,
and
whereas
the
existing
idling
bylaw
is
not
enforceable
against
the
current
occupation.
Due
to
an
exemption
when
the
outside
temperature
is
less
than
five
degrees.
Celsius,
including
the
wind
chill
as
determined
by

therefore
be
it
resolved
at
a
temporary
additional
provision
in
the
bylaw
be
enacted
with
a
sunset
Clause
of
two
months.
O
Hence
as
follows:
Section
3
be
amended
to
add
immediately
after
I
IA
occupied
Vehicles,
when
the
temperature
outside
the
vehicle
is
less
than
negative.
15

including
the

chill
value,
is
determined
by

for
folks
to
see

mayor.
C
C
Q
Thank
you,
whereas,
since
on

about
Friday,
January
28,
2022,
hundreds
of
vehicles

hundreds
to
thousands
of

occupation
poses
an
ongoing,
serious
and
immediate
threat
to
Public
Safety.
Q
Therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
the
council,
the
city
of
Ottawa,
formally
petitioned
the
government
of
Canada
to
assume
responsibility
for
Public,
Safety
and
Security
within
the
Parliamentary
Precinct,
and
to
commit
to
an
immediate

significant
increased
level
of

resources,
materials
and
equipment
to
the
Ottawa
Police
as
a
police
force
of
jurisdiction
in
the
adjoining
areas.
Subject
to
the
resolution
of
any
jurisdictional
discussions
between
the
Ottawa
Police
Service
and
the
RCMP.

is
consistently
disobeying,
bylaws
pertaining
to

Aaron
thanks
to

as
well,

it's
honored
about
Friday,
January,
28,
2022,
hundreds
of
vehicles
at
any
given
time
have
illegally
occupied
the
downtown
core
and
whereas,
although
the
Ottawa
Police
Service
has
identified
a
red
zone
comprising
of
the
Parliamentary
Precinct
and
immediate
area
that
have
been
the
concentration
of
the
occupied
area
and
response,
the
impacts
of
the
Convoy
have
extended
well
beyond
the
Parliamentary
Precinct
to
the
surrounding
streets
and
dense
residential
areas,
and
whereas
trucks
and
other
vehicles
remain
illegally
in
the
broader
downtown
core.
O
And
over
the
past
weekend.
The
activities
have
continued
to
negatively
impact
residential
areas
at
all
hours,
including,
but
not
limited
to
debilitating
noise
from
honking
excessive
diesel
fumes,
the
blocking
of
ambulances,
driving
on
sidewalks
fuel,
stockpiling
for
vehicles
and
blocking
residential
and
Commercial
access
with
vehicles,
and
whereas
the
remaining
participants
in
this
federally
focused
protest.
O
The
towing
the
vehicles
that
are
illegally
parked
or
stopped,
therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
city
council
supports
City
staff
and
using
the
recently
declared
state
of
emergency
and
enforcement
Powers
delegated
to
them
under
legislation
and
the
city's
bylaws
to
tow
vehicles
illegally
occupying
residential
areas
and
address
ongoing
impacts
of
continued
bylaw
violations
from
these
individuals
and
further
resolved
that
staff
advise
counsel
daily
on
the
status
of
enforcement
and
activities
related
to
the
occupation,
including
the
number
of
vehicles
towed
and
numbers
and
Natures
of
tickets.
Issued
thanks
mayor.
C
A
Thank
you
Mr
Mayor.
So
our
motion
is
we're
recognizing
that
we're
still
in
the
middle
of
this
and
that
there's
we
don't
have
an
end
date
yet.
But
it's
very
important
that
we
look
at
what
has
taken
place
pre-planning
as
well
as
throughout
this
demonstration,
so
that
we
can
inform
future
decisions.
So
we're
looking
for
an
after
action
review
of
this
Mr
Mayor
and
so
I'll.
Read
it
out.
A
It's,
whereas
Federal
provincial
Municipal
governments,
including
the
national
capital
commission
and
parliamentary
Protective
Service,
should
collaborate
in
a
joint
response
to
any
national
demonstrations
and
where
there
are
always
potential
for
inconsistencies
and
silos
within
the
information
sharing
and
dissemination
practices
between
the
numerous
layers
of
government
and
whereas
municipalities
such
as
Vancouver,
Toronto
and
Quebec,
have
experienced
protests
of
a
similar
nature
and
whereas
best
practices
would
dictate
that
a
review
of
the
communication
and
information
sharing
protocol
and
dissemination
be
action.
A
For
this
review
and
be
a
further
resolved.
The
council
requests
the
Ottawa,
Police
Services
Board
preview
and
finally,
be
it
further
resolved
that
the
report
include
but
not
be
limited
to
answers
to
the
questions
included
in
Annex
Aid
of
this
motion
and
Mr
Mayor.
What
we're
hoping
is
if
the
motion
passes,
we
want
to
have
leave
the
annex
open
for
other
counselors
to
add
whatever
they
want
onto
this
list
of
questions.
That's
a
report
would
look
into.
Would
you
like
me
to
read
out
the
sample
questions
that
we
have
so
far.
C
C
Does
anyone
else
have
another
emotion
before
we
go
to
questions
General
and
nature
before
we
go
back
to
the
specific
motions,
any
other
new
motions
I
see
a
number
of
hands
up,
but
if
someone
could
just
give
me
a
wave
to
see
if
they
have
another
motion,
they'd
like
to
present
counselor
King,
you
have
another
motion:
I
don't
have
a
copy.
M
Yes,
I
do
have
a
motion
around
the
condemnation
of
hate
at
the
at
the
occupation,
yeah.
H
C
H
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor,
we're
just
typing
up
the
the
new
motion
right
now.
C
Yes,
thank
you
we'll
come
back
to
that,
just
for
the
benefit
of
the
public.
Our
letters
to
the
premier,
councilor
Deans
and
I've,
co-signed
a
letter
to
the
premier
and
the
solicitor
general
provincially
and
the
Prime
Minister,
and
the
public
safety
Minister
federally
with
the
chief's
request
for
the
1800
new
Personnel
to
come
and
assist
us
in
the
city
of
Ottawa.
So
that's
gone
out
and
we've
sent
copies
to
members
of
council.
C
So
we're
now
going
to
go
to
questions
before
we
do
that.
We
just
got
word
that
the
the
court
has
issued
an
injunction
Mr
White.
Can
you
explain
to
us
the
implications
of
the
judge's
decision?
I
know
it's
I'm
probably
surprising
you
with
this,
but
we
just
received
word
of
a
junction
for
10
days
granted
for
10
days.
What
what
does
that
actually
do
to
help
resolve
our
situation.
K
K
It
will
be
limited
to
10
days.
The
court
has
recessed
for
the
next
10
or
15
minutes,
after
which
they
will
have
a
discussion
and
argument
on
what
the
terms
and
the
scope
of
the
injunction
order
will
be,
so
that
will
presumably
be
around
the
geographical
area,
whether
it
it
absolutely
prohibits
the
blowing
of
horns
or
whether
it
limits
it
to
certain
hours,
and
things
like
that.
K
So
we
continue
to
monitor
that
and
we
can
provide
an
update
as
as
we
learn
more
and
once
the
the
fullness
of
the
ruling
is
known.
C
Okay,
thank
you
for
that.
So
you
will
keep
us
posted
throughout
the
afternoon.
So
these
colleagues
we're
going
to
begin
now
with
general
questions
to
staff
and
the
police.
Once
we
finished
that
we
will
then
go
Motion
by
motion
and
we'll
get
councilor
meehan's
motion
when
it
gets
typed
up.
So
our
first
questioner
is
Council.
Shirelli
reminder
you
have.
We
still
have
the
five
minute
Rule
and
if
you
go
over
that
you
can
put
yourself
back
on
the
list
because
we're
in
Committee
of
the
whole
councilor
shirelli
five
minutes.
C
F
You
so
my
question
is
to
the
police
chief
We've
heard
about
the
hate
symbols
that
were
carried
around
during
the
demonstration,
but
I've
heard
a
number
of
media
question
what
evidence
we
have
that
the
people
carrying
these
symbols
were
actually
truckers
are
part
of
the
actual
Convoy
ER
or
what
are
the
chances
that
they
could
be
members
of
the
Ottawa
Community.
So
do
we
have
evidence
that
the
people
carrying
those
symbols
were
Truckers.
B
Thank
you
very
much,
Council
I'm,
going
to
turn
to
deputy
chief
Steve
Bell
Who
overseas,
our
intelligence
and
investigations
to
provide
an
answer.
S
I
just
asked
thanks
Chief
and
thank
you
councilor
shirelli,
so
we
are
continuing
to
do
the
investigations
to
identify
the
people
who
were
the
information
that's
been
provided
to
us
and
the
people
who
were
carrying
those
hate
symbols.
What
I
can
tell
you,
regardless
of
whether
they
were
part
of
the
Convoy
demonstration
or
not,
they
have
no
place
in
our
community
and
have
absolutely
no
place
anywhere
and
we
need
to
follow
the
laws
and
do
our
investigations
and
charge
them
accordingly.
S
We
do
know
that,
as
the
investigations
unfolded,
the
activity
has
been
in
and
around
the
area
that's
been
occupied
by
the
demonstration,
but
that
would
have
no
material
fact
on
the
charge
or
investigation
that
we're
undertaking.
S
Our
investigation
will
will
determine
the
reasons
why
they
were
here.
The
investigation
will
all
also
determine
the
applicable
charges
relating
to
the
acts
of
carrying
those
around.
T
I'll
defend
the
right
to
free
speech
and
lawful
demonstration
until
my
last
breath,
but
what
undermines
these
rights
are
completely
ignoring
the
equal
and
more
important
responsibilities
that
come
with
these
rights
and
every
single
person
exercising
their
right
to
demonstrate
to
uphold
the
rule
of
law.
This
is
what
underpins
our
entire
society,
that
everyone
is
equal
under
the
law.
T
So
that
means
you
don't
get
to
break
the
law,
to
make
your
point
and
you
don't
get
to
paralyze
and
terrorize
an
entire
city,
because
a
democratically
elected
government
has
made
a
policy
decision
to
align
our
country
with
our
largest
trading
partner.
You
don't
get
to
use
your
vehicle
as
a
weapon
and
you
don't
get
to
a
cost
or
threatened
residents
of
our
city
and
you
don't
get
to
hold
an
entire
Community
hostage.
You
don't
get
to
forcibly
close
down
businesses
and
harass
people
trying
to
go
about
their
lives.
T
City
council
cannot
direct
police,
but
we
can
express
our
expectations
whether
or
not
police
decide
to
meet
our
expectations
is
up
to
them.
But
it
is
my
expectation
that
this
ends
by
whatever
lawful
means
necessary
and
that
it
ends
immediately.
This
occupation
is
undermining
the
very
Foundation
of
this
country
and
it's
attracting
some
of
the
most
extreme
and
violent
radicals
that
this
country
has
to
offer.
T
We
are
a
country
of
peace
order
and
good
government
peace
and
Order
are
not
negotiable
and
if
you
feel
you
do
not
have
a
good
government
then
engage
in
the
Democratic
process,
but
what
these
occupiers
are
doing
to
our
city
right
now
is
undemocratic.
They
say
they
love
this
country,
but
they
don't
seem
to
have
an
idea
of
what
this
country
stands
for.
We
cannot
allow
ourselves
to
be
abstracted
to
pick
up
hockey
a
flag
in
an
Anthem.
This
occupation
is
an
ugly
caricature
of
Canada
and
it
must
end
now.
T
I've
called
for
Unity
I've
highlighted
the
completely
reasonable
concerns
some
people
have
regarding
the
curtailing
of
civil
liberties
to
fight
this
pandemic
and
I've
visited
the
occupied
area
this
morning
and
listened,
but
we
cannot
have
a
productive
conversation
at
the
business
end
of
a
gun
or
the
grill
of
a
semi-truck,
and
we
cannot
have
that
conversation
with
violent
radicals
and
miscreants
sitting
at
the
table.
I
support
any
lawful
action
required
to
bring
this
illegal
and
Insidious
occupation
to
an
end
and
I'll,
ask
my
questions
on
the
next
round.
Thank
you.
C
Thank
you
and
very
well
said:
counselor
councilor
Curry.
Please.
D
Mr
Mayor
I
could
I,
certainly
Echo.
All
of
that,
my
questions
are
really
on
this
process.
So
I
see
a
number
of
excellent
motions,
thanks
to
all
my
colleagues
for
creating
them,
I'm
wondering
about
some
of
the
language
on
them
and
whether
they
are
purposefully
vague.
When
we
say
you
know
a
formal
request,
funding
supports
any
and
all
is
it
purposefully
done
that
way,
because
there
would
be
an
in-camera
meeting
where
we
would
talk
about
specifically
what
that
means.
D
What
I'm
not
seeing
is
when
the
chief
of
police
asks
us
for
very
specific
things,
and
you
mentioned
one
of
them
about
the
1800
officers.
Where
does
that
show
up
in
emotion
or
would
we
be
having
an
in-camera
meeting,
because
it
is
not
in
our
best
interest
to
talk
about
very
specifically
what
we're
going
to
do
next
and
I.
Just
add
to
that,
you
know
we
received
a
really
good
informational,
email
from
Mr
White,
and
there
are
a
number
of
things
in
it.
That
I
think.
K
I
can
I
can
respond
to
that
with
respect
to
the
the
memo
that's
been
circulated,
I.
Don't
believe
that
there
is
anything
in
that
that
memo
that
would
require
an
in-camera
discussion.
K
D
Thank
you
for
that
I
guess
I'm.
Just
wondering,
though,
is
there
anything
else
we
else
with
these
motions
to
me.
Some
of
them
are
they're
excellent.
You
know
they
make
a
lot
of
sense,
I'd
be
supporting
them
all,
but
they're,
not
very
specific
and
so
I.
Just
wonder
if
that's
required
or
there's
an
understanding
of
what
we
mean
by
you
know,
funding
supports.
C
Just
councilor
Curry
very
good
answer
that
I
spoke
with
the
clerk
earlier
and
if
there
is
a
legitimate
reason
to
go
in
camera
because
of
security
sensitivity
issue,
we
can
do
that
and
and
we'll
ask
our
colleagues,
the
chief
and
his
colleagues
as
well
as
Steve
canalakis
and
our
team.
If
there
are
any
items
as
we
go
Motion
by
motion
that
require
greater
Clarity
and
require
confidentiality
because
of
security
aspects,.
G
Yeah,
thank
you
Chief
slowly.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
your
work,
your
service
and
and
thank
you
for
your
members.
Jacqueline
I.
G
Counselor
colleagues,
to
remove
the
Convoy
and
return
our
city
to
its
residents
as
soon
as
safely
possible
and
I
stand
with
all
my
Council
colleagues
who
have
had
enough
of
this
unlawful
display.
It's
not
Freedom,
it's
not
freedom
of
expression.
Thank
you,
councilor
Lula,
for
your
words.
Freedom
is
exercising
a
peaceful
protest,
enforced
by
the
rule
of
law
and
at
The
Ballot
Box.
G
G
B
Thank
you
very
much.
Councilor
I'll
try
to
give
a
very
practical
example.
We
have
spent
the
last
72
hours,
interdicting
fuel,
coming
in
to
fuel
propane,
gasoline
wood,
incendiary
devices
coming
into
the
downtown
court,
some
of
it
coming
in
through
a
wide
variety
of
methods,
as
I
mentioned
from
from
vehicles
and
conveyances,
including
a
horse
and
buggy
at
one
point,
including
a
large
staging
area
that
was
dismantled
overnight
on
Coventry
Road.
B
The
challenge
is
traditionally
we
would
seize
the
one
source
of
fuel,
the
one
person
or
group
of
people
doing
it.
We
would
go
to
the
location
where
the
amount
of
fuel
was
being
staged
and
having
interdicted
it
and
made
arrests
and
seized
the
property.
That
would
be
the
end
of
it
and
we
could
move
on
to
the
next
situation
and
yet,
literally
within
hours
of
those
operations
at
Coventry
Road,
there
were
attempts
to
retake
that
location
and
establish
other
staging
locations
across
the
city.
I
think
Wisconsin
dudas.
B
In
a
comments
earlier
on
and
more
of
the
Motions,
it
talked
about,
the
Red
Zone
really
has
spread
out
into
the
Suburban
Awards,
and
that
is
a
fact
we
are
spreading.
Our
resources
already
too
thin
into
more
and
more
Wards
and
more
and
more
parts
of
the
city
as
the
nature
of
this
demonstration
occupation,
is
showing
its
flexibility
and
adaptability
to
counter
measures.
B
Gas
cans
are
being
brought
in
in
different
ways
now
than
they
were
on
the
weekend
and
we're
having
to
in
real
time
methods
change
our
approaches
to
interdict
the
fuel
coming
in.
This
is
not
the
normal
type
of
operation
where,
if
you
isolate,
contain
and
eliminate
one
one
element
of
it,
you
can
then
move
on
safely
with
your
resources
to
the
next
element,
it's
incredibly
difficult.
That
is
just
one
example
of
why
we
do
not
feel
this
is
a
solution
of
police
alone.
We
need
new
elements
of
bylaw,
provincial
offenses
and
federal
offenses.
B
We
need
creative
thinking
and
convening
of
different
sectors,
whether
they
be
the
business
sector,
the
not
for
profit
sector,
the
health
sector
to
consider
how
those
areas
might
contribute
to
an
overall
Safe
And.
Timely
resolution.
Lawful
resolution
of
this,
and
obviously
we
need
the
continued
support
of
all
two
levels
of
government,
whether
it's
to
meet
the
resource
requests
that
we've
tabled
through
the
mayor's
office
or
for
them
to
consider
other
powers
and
convenient
authorities
that
they
may
have.
G
Thank
you
Chief.
You
know
you
use
the
word
retake.
The
location
use
the
term
retake
the
location
at
rcgt
Park,
not
far
from
my
ward
in
counselor
Kings
Ward.
You
know
it
has
a
a
military
tone
to
it.
G
Chief
you
asked
for
today
you
told
us
you
asked
for
1800
additional
people,
men
and
women
on
the
ground
and
I,
don't
know
what,
if
they're
sworn
officers
or
other
resources,
I
haven't
read
the
letter
that
the
the
mayor
wrote
to
to
the
prime
minister
in
the
premier,
but
when,
given
what
you've
asked
for
and
the
qualities
they
need,
when
can
we
expect
to
have
these
1800
additional
resources
in
Ottawa.
B
Thank
you,
counselor
I
appreciate
it
again
without
being
able
to
speak
for
what
those
levels
of
government
can
and
will
do
with
the
requests
that
have
been
sent
by
the
mayor
in
in
traditional
operations,
where
we
seek
seconded
officers
from
other
agencies,
depending
on
where
those
agencies
are
and
what
we're
asking
for
so.
For
instance,
Kingston,
Police
and
I'm
grateful
for
chief
Ange
McNeely.
There
Cornwall
police
chief
Stowers
offered
resources
within
24
hours.
B
When
we
requested
a
public
order
section
from
peel
region,
it
took
48
hours
for
those
public
order,
officers
to
stage
and
heal
and
drive
in
the
Vans
and
bring
their
equipment
set
up
in
a
hotel
and
then
be
deployed
within
the
48
to
20
to
72
hours
when
we're
making
requests
of
the
Ontario
Provincial
Police
certain
Quebec
RCMP.
These
are
jurisdictions
that
cover
extremely
large
areas
of
territory,
and
they
may
be
pulling
officers
in
the
RCMP
case
from
as
far
as
away
from
St
John's
Newfoundland
as
Victoria
BC.
B
G
So
those
resources
do
not
have
to
be
sworn
on.
Saturday
you
had
to
swear
in
or
opsb
had
to
have
a
a
motion
to
swear
in
257
RCMP
officers
that
does
not
have
to
occur.
B
So
if
it's
the
RCMP
or
out
of
Province
Police
Services,
we
would
have
to
swear
them
in
as
special
constables
and
I
have
the
powers
of
Ontario.
If
they
have
from
Ontario
OPP
or
Municipal
Police
Services,
we
would
not
have
to
square
them
in.
G
Got
it?
Thank
you
she
slowly,
you
you
said
that
people
looking
to
join
the
occupation
to
stay
away
and
that
there
would
be
consequences
for
illegal
actions.
Can
you
tell
me
about
the
consequences,
because,
frankly,
we
have
not
seen
many,
what
are
the
consequences?
You're
referring
to
well.
B
Thank
you,
councilor
and
I
I
totally
understand
when
people
say
they
still
feel
that
sense
of
real
impressive
trauma,
a
sense
of
real,
impressive
fear
and
danger,
I
take
them,
literally
whatever
the
after
effect
was
of
whatever
the
experience,
an
active
hate,
someone
telling
them
to
take
off
their
Mass,
someone,
yelling
or
spitting
at
them
disrespecting
an
elder
or
an
infirm
member
of
the
community,
someone
from
a
disadvantage
or
racialized
Community,
who
has
experienced
anything
near
to
what
our
officers
have
experienced
I
can
understand
that
sense
that
nothing
has
changed.
B
I
can
also
tell
you
the
size
of
the
footprint
of
the
demonstration
and
the
core
in
that
red
zone
has
shrunk.
The
number
of
trucks
have
gone
down
significantly.
The
number
of
active
demonstrators
in
the
city
at
any
given
time
in
the
24-hour
cycle
has
gone
down
significantly.
The
level
of
noise,
at
least
that
I
can
perceive
from
where
I
sit
in
my
office.
Us
right
now
has
gone
down
to
intermittent
honking,
so
there
has
been
a
substantive
reduction
through
negotiation
enforcement
and
the
message
that,
if
you
come,
there
will
be
consequences.
G
Thank
you
for
that.
How
confident
are
you
that
the
occupiers
they're,
not
demonstrators,
they're,
not
a
freedom,
Convoy
they're
occupiers
are
going
to
be
charged
after
they
depart
the
city
for
for
crimes
committed
while
they
were
in
this
city
during
the
occupation.
What
what
would
be
included
in
those
charges.
B
Well,
as
I
said
before,
I'll
invite
deputy
chief
Bell
to
talk
about
this.
We
have
we
started
consultations
with
the
Clown's
office
once
we
knew
that
this
was
a
confirmed
demonstration
that
will
be
arriving
here.
We
anticipated
we
would
be,
we
would
be
laying
some
criminal
charges.
We
anticipated
that,
depending
on
the
nature
of
the
demonstrations,
there
may
be
some
offenses
criminal
offenses
in
particular
that
we
could
not
lay
charges
at
the
moment
or
during
the
actual
period
of
the
demonstration.
B
Slash,
occupation,
slash
or
some
is
called
Insurrection,
and
so
we
were
prepared
to
have
investigations
continue
in
the
weeks
months
and
in
fact,
years
after
to
continue
to
delay
charges.
I
have
been
involved
in
in
events
like
this,
where
we
have
late
charges,
sometimes
years
after
the
fact.
We've
seen
that
in
the
Vancouver
riots
post
to
hockey
the
Stanley
Cup
days
weeks
months
after
we
are
already
putting
together
an
investigative
capability
that
will
pursue
the
charges
coming
from
this
stand
alone
from
their
regular
duties
as
investigating
charges
here
so
processes
in
place
beforehand.
B
S
Thank
you
Chief,
and
thank
you
for
your
question.
Counselor
puche.
So
much
of
our
effort
in
the
last
number
of
days
and
and
the
large
ask
that
we've
have
in
the
requests
we've
made
are
specifically
concerning
what
you're
talking
about
we've
divided
our
investigative
strategy
into
four
different
components.
One
is
the
the
calls
that
we're
receiving
from
people
who
are
interacting
with
people
in
and
around
the
demonstration
Zone.
S
The
second
is
our
enforcement
efforts,
like
you
saw
yesterday,
specifically
around
managing
the
criminal
activity
in
the
demonstration
Zone,
such
as
bringing
gasoline
into
that
area
beyond
that.
We're
also
looking
at
a
more
broadly
how
we
address
the
people
that
are
responsible
and
continuing
to
engage
in
the
activity
from
a
criminal
perspective
as
we
move
along.
So
we
have
a
stream
specifically
related
to
that,
and
the
other
one
is
around
highway.
S
Traffic
act,
bylaw
commercial
vehicle
licensing
and
insurance,
more
HTA,
related,
more
truck
and
vehicle
related
investigations
that
we're
conducting
part
of
the
ask
we
have
is
specialists
in
all
of
those
different
areas,
as
well
as
social
media
and
cyber
crime
capabilities,
because
we
know
over
the
course
of
the
10
days,
there's
been
an
incredible
amount
of
social
media
activity
relating
to
this.
Much
of
it.
What
will
much
of
it
components
that
we'll
be
able
to
use
in
criminal
prosecutions
moving
ahead?
So
thank
you
for
your
question.
G
Thank
you
and,
and
thank
you,
deputy
chief
Bell
I,
appreciate
that
this
might
be
to
Chief,
slowly
or
deputy
chief
bill
or
to
Mr
White
art
Eagle
staff.
You
you
said
we
received
an
injunction
or
the
mayor.
The
mayor
said
we
were
granted
an
injunction
10
days.
G
Can
somebody
comment?
First
of
all
who
asked
for
that
injunction?
Was
it
the
city
or
was
it
a
group
of
residents
and
were
we
participant
in
the
injunction?
How
would
it
be
enforced.
K
So
mayor
I
can
start
with
the
first
questions.
The
injunction
is
actually
interim
stage
of
a
class
action
that
was
commenced
on
behalf
of
of
residents
in
the
downtown
court
that
have
been
affected
by
the
the
continuous
blowing
of
of
truck
horns.
K
It
is
again
the
the
the
class
as
framed
is
that
those
residents
it
is
against
certain
organizers
and
and
other
unnamed
parties
in
the
protest,
this
as
a
private
action
involving
those
the
city
was
not
invited.
So
it
is
not
an
injunction
that
has
been
sought
by
the
city
or
proceeding
which
the
city
has
been
involved.
K
G
Okay,
Chief
anything
on
that
on.
Is
it
premature
to
talk
about
enforcing
the
injunction
that
you
perhaps
haven't
seen.
G
Thank
you,
Mr,
White
or
or
Steve
K,
or
have
we
asked
for
special
powers?
Have
we
asked
the
province
or
the
federal
government
to
invoke
or
put
in
place
a
special
state
of
emergency
or
other
other
type
of
of
power,
illegal
power
for
the
city
or
for
our
police
force
with
which
to
deal
with
this
occupation?
G
And
no,
we
have
not
Mr
Mr
Mayor
David.
Do
you
want
to
speak
to
that.
K
Certainly
Mr
Mayor,
the
the
city
has
not
at
this
point.
The
the
provisions
exist
they're
outlined
in
the
memo
I
apologize
for
the
the
short
time
the
council
has
had
available
in
advance
of
today's
meeting.
Just
given
the
breadth
of
that
that
memorandum,
the
the
the
the
authorities
that
are
available,
the
the
extraordinary
authorities
that
might
be
available,
those
are
those
would
be
generally
under
the
emergency
management
and
civil
protection
act
in
the
event
that
the
province
decides
to
declare
an
emergency.
K
That
is,
that
is
within
their
discretion.
On
the
the
federal
level
there
was,
there
is
no
Authority
in
the
municipality
to
request
the
either
the
kind
of
the
invocation
or
that
might
I
should
I.
Should
the
city
can
request,
it
was
in.
The
city
has
no
ability
to
require,
for
example,
the
federal
government
to
invoke
out
of
the
emergencies
act
at
the
federal
level
or,
for
example,
the
National
Defense
Act,
which,
which
provides
for
the
the
availability
of
Canadian
Armed
Forces
in
support
of
Civilian
authorities.
K
So
I
think
the
the
general
View
and
you've
probably
heard
this
articulated
by
the
federal
ministers
just
before
council-
is
that
the
the
authorities
exist
today
with
respect
to
the
criminal
code.
Provincial
statutes,
Municipal
bylaws,
to
address
it
to
address
the
protest
as
it
is,
so
we
have
not
sought
any
kind
of
extraordinary
Authority,
nor
have
we
seen
the
province
of
the
Federal
Government
Act
on
their
own
authorities.
In
that
regard,
one.
G
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor.
Thank
you,
Mr
White,
for
that
yes,
you're
right
you're
referring
to
Mr
LeBlanc.
He
said
we
have
the
tools
and
the
jurisdiction
to
respond
in
a
press
conference
earlier
today,
our
former
colleague
on
this
Council.
G
Now
a
federal
MP
and
the
premier
Ford,
have
tweeted
or
or
expressed
that
we
have
sent
them
and
given
them
everything
they've
asked
for
or
we're
waiting
for
them
to
ask
for
something,
and
so
I
I'm
wondering
why
what
the
strategy
is,
what
the
tactic
is
that
we
have
not
asked
for
those
those
extra
Powers
did.
Did
we
up
until
now
not
feel
that
they
would
be
necessary?
Do
we
contemplate?
G
K
Mr
Mayor
I'll,
certainly
all
start.
My
office
in
the
city,
Administration
have
been
in
regular
discussion
with
the
Ottawa
Police
as
the
police
force
of
jurisdiction
and
and
the
agency
ultimately
responsible
for
for
the
maintenance
of
Law
and
Order
in
the
city
of
Ottawa
as
to
whether
there
are
additional
tools
that
might
be
available
to
support
their
operational
plans.
K
So
those
discussions
are
always
ongoing
in
the
event
that
there
was
something
that
can
be
identified.
That
might
be
that's
like
operationalized.
We
are
happy
to
pursue
that,
either
through
discussions
and
with
other
levels
of
government
or,
for
example,
through
the
pursuit
of
our
own
injunction.
G
Mr
Mayor
may
also
add
that
the
other
piece
of
information
which
which
I
like
to
share
with
council,
is
that
you
know
myself
and
chief
slowly
are
part
of
a
of
a
group
of
senior
federal
officials
at
the
deputy
Minister
level,
from
key
federal
government
departments.
G
Speaking
on
a
daily
basis
on
what
assistance,
including
the
province
by
the
way
with
the
province.
What
assistance
they
can
be
they
can
provide
to
the
city
and
I,
and
the
Focus
right
now
has
been
on
what
Chief
slowly
has
identified
as
the
request
of
the
police
board,
in
which
the
mayor
has
now
written.
The
premier
and
the
prime
minister
is
resources.
G
There
are
also
other
Regulatory
and
and
legislative
Avenues
be
in
pursued
at
the
federal
level
and
the
provincial
level
and
I'm
not
going
to
share
those
publicly
right
now,
because
they're
still
working
that
through
their
departments
and
with
their
respective
ministers.
But
there
are
a
number
of
things
that
they're
looking
to
try
and
Aid
us
and
help
us
many
of
the
things
that
have
been
asked,
whether
it's
emergency
powers
and
all
those
things
that
are
in
the
in
in
City,
solicitors.
G
The
legal
thing
are,
you
know
things
that
yeah
possibly
can
be
used,
but
quite
frankly,
our
assessment
right
now,
including
the
federal
governments
and
the
province,
is
that
additional
resources
is
what
we
need
most
right
now
and
the
military
was
was
one
of
the
things
that
comes
out
of
some
of
these
requests
and
the
military
has
not
been
ruled
in
as
an
option.
It's.
It
has
not
received
a
a
positive
response
from
our
federal
government
colleagues,
including
what
I
understand
at
the
political
level
and
including
what
the
Prime
Minister
has
said.
G
So
it's
not
something
that
can
be
involved
will
be
invoked
and
we
haven't
asked
for
that.
The
focus
has
been
on
getting
boots
on
the
ground,
as
the
chief
said,
to
help
with
the
with
the
Staffing
that
Ottawa
Police
needs
to
get
this
to
a
place.
So
we
can
end
it,
and
so
that's
why
we
haven't
moved
to
these
other
Extraordinary
Measures,
because
we're
working
on
a
number
of
things
behind
the
scenes
to
try
and
help,
but
the
immediate
need
these
things
like
everything
is,
are
not
short-term
Solutions.
G
G
There
are
tactics,
there
are
strategies,
but
we
need
to
see
the
end
of
this
occupation.
It
cannot
go
on
forever,
I
think
we
all
agree
on
that
and
I
think.
That's
the
that's
the
the
point
that
our
small
business
people
that
are
residents
in
the
core
need
to
need
to
hear
from
us
and
so
I'll
be
looking
for
that
a
little
bit
more
in
the
Motions
that
we'll
be
considering
later.
Thank.
I
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor,
just
first
I
guess,
almost
an
invitation
and
and
some
some
introduction
to
where
I'm
going
with
this
I
I
think
we're
all
clear
and-
and
we
can
make
no
mistake-
that
the
protesters
are
not
here
because
they
have
a
beef
with
the
city
of
Ottawa
they're,
not
they're,
not
here,
because
they
think
we've
done
or
not
done
something
they're
here,
because
they
don't
like
the
federal
mandate,
the
policies,
the
only
provincial
policies,
mandates
and-
and
we
unfortunately
are
in
the
wrong
place
at
the
wrong
time.
I
There's
a
fight
going
on
and
and
the
City
of
Ottawa
you
know,
unfortunately,
is
the
Battleground
for
that
fight,
but
they're
not
here
because
of
something
we've
done
so
I.
Think
the
active
engagement
of
the
provincial
and
the
federal
levels
of
government
is
absolutely
essential
to
resolving
this
and
for
them
to
they've,
been
there
they've
been
helping
us
out,
I
I,
guess
where
I'm
going
with
this.
I
So,
as
I
share
some
of
the
concerns
that
counselor
Curry
raised
about
whether
we're
being
specific
enough
in
the
wording
of
our
emotions
for
what
we,
what
we
need
every
time
we
pull
staff
together,
the
chief
and
his
and
his
Deputy,
Chiefs
and
and
Kim
ayotte
and
Steve
kanawak-
is
that
the
regular
business
of
the
city
is
is
not
happening,
and
so
I
I
guess
my
my
invitation.
I
If
you
will
to
you
Steve
and
and
Chief
and
Kim,
you
know,
there's
a
bit
of
a
tradition
around
the
council
table
to
be
deferential
to
us
at
Council
meetings
and
wait
for
us
to
ask
the
questions
and
I
understand
that
unless
we
do
a
normal
times,
but
these
aren't
normal
times.
So
as
these
motions
come
up,
I
I
would
I
would
invite
you
to
to
say
if
we're
missing
something,
if
we're
not
putting
all
the
tools
you
need
in
that
toolbox.
I
I
I
It's
it's
not
so
much
a
question,
but
it's
it's
an
invitation.
Please
let
us
know!
Let
us
know
before
we
vote
on
the
motion,
so
we
don't
have
to
collect
everybody
together
again,
because
my
biggest
fear
is
we
go.
We
go.
We
direct
the
mayor.
The
mayor
goes
back
to
the
federal
and
provincial
governments
who
have
said
you
know
consistently
we're
there
for
you
we're
there
to
help.
You
out
tell
us
what
you
need
so
I.
I
Don't
want
it
to
be
a
back
and
forth
when
we
need
to
get
things
done
right
away
as
to
what
it
is
that
we
really
need.
So
if
we're
missing
something
Mr,
canalakis
Chief
in
those
motions
in
those
in
the
wording
of
the
request
that
we're
going
to
ask
the
mayor
to
make
on
behalf
of
council-
please
let
us
know
now,
so
we
can
incorporate
those
as
friendly
amendments
into
the
motions,
and
we
can
make
sure
that
you
have
everything
that
you
need
to
get
this
job
done
as
quickly
as
possible.
I
So
we
can
provide
relief
to
the
thousands
and
thousands
of
our
residents
that
are
impacted
by
this
every
day
for
the
last
10
days.
We
want
this
over.
We
want
it
done
as
quickly
as
possible
as
safely
as
possible.
So
we
need
you
to
be
very
clear
today
as
to
what
you
need
us
to
ask
for
from
the
other
levels
of
government.
So
we
don't
get
into
it
back
and
forth,
but
we
make
the
request.
I
I
As
the
Motions
come
forward
that,
if
there's
anything
missing,
we
will
bring
it
forward
to
your
attention,
so
it
can
be
incorporated
into
the
motion,
so
they
can
be
more
effective.
G
Mr
may
I:
ask
you
really
well
sorry,
go
ahead,
Mr,
may
we
absolutely
will
this
is?
We
will
be
very
Frank
in
terms
of
dealing
with
these
motions
or
anything
else
that
we
need
that
comes
up
as
a
result
of
the
questions,
and
the
answer
is
given
back.
I
can
assure
you
that
I
appreciate
that
thank.
C
You,
okay,
thank
you,
councilor
egg,
Lai,
again
Chief!
If
you
feel
that,
because
we
have
a
number
of
questions
and
we
haven't
reached
the
Motions
yet
if
you
feel
that
you
need
to
excuse
your
colleagues,
the
deputy
Chiefs,
please
by
all
means
I
know,
Council
will
understand
the
pressure
you're
in
and
the
time
constraints
and
so
on.
So
we
appreciate
your
time.
Counselor
Menard,
please.
O
Yeah
thanks
very
much
mayor
I,
want
to
start
by
by
thanking
a
few
people
who
were
missed
in
in
opening
comments.
O
The
residents
of
of
the
city
who
have
stepped
up
when,
quite
frankly,
they
felt
abandoned
by
authorities
and
those
are
the
people
offering
safe
walks
to
others.
The
people
that
are
reporting,
continuous
harassment
and
warning
others
in
the
streets.
O
The
people
on
social
media
like
the
center
Town
helpers,
Discord
and
Twitter
spaces,
the
residents
and
media
who
are
in
the
Red
Zone
reporting
out
incidents
and,
in
some
cases
contradicting
what
authorities
have
been
saying.
Sometimes
in
real
time,
the
people
holding
nightly
Forums
on
the
trauma
this
is
causing
and
the
services
that
are
being
offered.
O
This
is
community
supporting
community
and
they
deserve
our
thanks
and
people
like
counselor
McKenney,
who,
quite
frankly,
mayor
deserves
more
than
just
a
passing
reference
in
opening
remarks
for
delivering
injunction
notices
to
the
area
for
managing
thousands
of
emails
from
residents
who
are
concerned
for
delivering
food
to
people
and
animals
and
for
bringing
hope
to
people
and
The
Bravery
shown
by
showing
up
on
the
front
lines.
O
All
of
these
folks
deserve
our
thanks,
because
there
have
been
major
mistakes
made
from
what
we've
seen
in
these
last
10
days
and
we're
just
starting
to
rectify
them
now,
but
inexcusable
what
we
saw
in
the
first
few
days.
What
occurred
here
on
the
injunction
did
this
city
end
up
pursuing
its
own
injunction,
because
I
know
we
were
waiting
for
that?
We
had
said
we
were
at
one
point:
we
have
now
residents
like
Paul,
champ
and
Emily
teman.
Who,
who
did
this
on
behalf
of
residents?
O
Did
the
city
pursue
its
own
in
this
case.
K
K
Pursuing
an
injunction,
certainly
on
behalf
of
government
is
not
something
that
that
doesn't
come
with
potential
risks,
particularly
if
the
injunction
sought
is
overly
broad,
with
the
potential
result
of
that,
for
example,
the
court
either
doesn't
Grant
the
injunction
grants
it
partially
or
that,
for
example,
if
the
injunction
is
ultimately
appealed
and
overturned.
Those
kinds
of
of
risks
are
that
the
the
people
that
are
the
subject
of
that
injunction,
Can
Be.
Emboldened
by
that
and
that's
that's
a
discussion.
I've
also
had
with
my
my
colleagues
at
the
federal
level.
K
So
we
have
prepared
materials
in
the
event
that
obtaining
an
injunction
or
obtaining
some
kind
of
of
injunctive
relief
is
something
that
the
police
believe
would
serve
to
assist
their
operational
plans
and
assist
them
in
dealing
with
the
the
protest.
But
to
date
we
have
not
filed
that.
O
Okay,
thank
you
for
clarifying
that
to
Chief.
Slowly
today
you
call
the
statement
inaccurate
regarding
the
enforcement
of
fuel,
stockpiling
and
delivery
associated
with
the
occupation
after
10
days,
I'm
I'm
wondering
why
that's
inaccurate
did
we
actually
start
enforcing
the
Fuel
stock
stockpiling
previously
that
we're
not
aware
of.
B
Thank
you,
councilor
I,
just
before
I
answer
mayor
just
this
has
already
gone
past.
The
two-hour
Mark
that
was
originally
committed
to
it
I
do
need
to
release
deputy
chief
Ferguson
back
to
her
role
as
operational
Commander.
There's
a
number
of
issues
that
are
important
for
her
as
I
had
advised
the
mayor
and
council
at
the
start
of
this
I'll
be
able
to
hold
deputy
chief
Bell
for
a
little
while
longer,
but
if
I
could
just
ask
that
WC
first
and
be
allowed
to
step
away
to
our
duties
Council.
B
In
regards
to
your
question,
we
have
understood
the
fuel
to
be
a
significant
challenge
for
the
past
week,
to
the
extent
that
we
have
been
able
to
release
resources
away
from
the
core
footprint
of
the
red
zone.
As
we've
talked
about
it.
Yes,
we've
been
trying
to
do
interdictions
the
more
resources
we've
requested
and
obtained
the
more
resources
we've
been
able
to
release
to
do
interdictions.
So,
yes,
we
have
been
trying
from
the
very
beginning,
with
minimal
effect.
B
Now
that
we
have
more
resources,
we've
been
able
to
release
those
resources
to
our
members
to
pursue
larger
operations
like
we
did
overnight
at
Coventry
and
have
done
so
over
the
last
36
hours,
we're
seeing
a
significant
greater
level
of
effect,
even
with
that
greater
effect,
we've
seen
almost
the
same.
Real-Time
change
in
the
tactics
of
the
demonstrators
to
frustrate
those
operations
and
we're
making
real-time
adjustments
now
to
make
sure
we
still
have
a
significant
impact
on
that
effect.
B
On
that
attempt
to
restrict
fuel
from
getting
into
the
demonstrations
same
goes
for
the
funding
we've
been
trying
to
go
after
the
funding
for
a
week.
We
finally
got
it
nailed
down
on
Thursday
into
Friday
and
within
hours
they
found
six
other
platforms
around
which
to
do
fundraising
and
distribution
of
those
funds.
We
talked
about
that
when
we,
when
we
go
after
cars
as
soon
as
we
move
one
or
two
four
or
five
come
flooding
in,
so
our
efforts
have
been
stepped
up
as
much
as
we
can
they've
been
as
effective
as
they
can
be.
B
O
Thank
you
for
clarifying
in
the
mayor's
opening
remarks.
We
we
said
that
anyone
caught
trying
to
replenish
supplies
in
the
red
zone
is
now
being
arrested
and
being
charged
with
aiding
in
the
legal
activity,
but
we're
seeing
on
on
social
media
now
visuals
that
that
doesn't
appear
to
be
the
case
directly
beside
officers
in
some
case.
So
what
what
is
going
on.
S
Yeah,
thank
you
Mr
Mayor,
so
we
have
doubled
down
our
efforts
and
our
our
interdiction
efforts.
As
the
chief
indicated
part
of
part
of
the
the
Gap
that
we
have
currently
is
our
resourcing
levels.
We
have
every
intention
to
have
our
members:
stop
questions
fees,
investigate
arrest,
potentially
lay
criminal
charges,
depending
on
the
course
of
the
investigation
with
every
bit
of
gas
or
supplies
going
into
the
occupation
area.
S
As
we
see
an
increase
in
influx
of
resources,
we
will
be
able
to
bolster
the
points
that
we
know
those
supplies
are
going
in
and
we
will
be
able
to
increase
that
enforcement
efforts.
While
we
have
had
success
in
those
areas,
we
continue
to
know
that
we
need
to
expand
that
and
we
will,
as
we
see
the
influx
and
resources
come
in.
O
Thank
you
very
much
deputy
chief
I'm
wondering
about
the
the
towing
operations
and
and
the
idea
of
consolidating
this
protest
any
pro
normal
protest.
That's
a
protesting.
The
hill
is
up
on
the
hill,
usually
with
people
they
don't
usually
bring
in
their
cars.
It's
different
here
in
that
there's
trucks
and
cars
in
some
cases,
so
in
terms
of
Towing
is
I,
see.
We've
started
to
tow
some
Vehicles.
What
is
the
strategy
around
that?
Is
it
to
push
from
the
outsides
in
towards
the
hill
and
cordon
off?
B
Steve
I
know
we
don't
have
Trisha
on
the
line.
Are
you
able
to
provide
that
initial
description
to
the
council's
question?
Yeah.
S
For
sure,
thank
you
very
much
so
as
as
it
relates
to
the
operation
and
how
we
would
move
forward
on
it,
I
I
believe
it
would
be
inappropriate
to
comment
on
our
tactics.
We
are
going
to
use
moving
ahead.
What
I
can
tell
you
is:
we've
heard
much
conversation
about
the
restrictions
around
Towing
across
the
country.
That's
that's
a
reality
that
we've
been
dealing
with
right
from
the
onset
of
this
occupation.
S
It's
something
we
continue
to
work
with
Steve
catalakis
and
his
team
on,
as
well
as
other
jurisdictions,
other
police
services,
to
look
at
how
we
can
overcome
it.
We're
getting
to
the
point
that
we're
looking
for
alternatives
to
tolling
in
terms
of
how
we
would
manage
it
moving
ahead,
but
we
don't
see
fundamentally,
at
the
end
of
the
day,
the
removal
of
the
vehicles
being
the
obstacle
as
we
go
ahead.
O
Thank
you
for
that
I'm
wondering
there's
about
20
minutes,
counselor
20
seconds,
20
minutes
we're
going
to
be
here
a
long
time.
I,
don't
know!
If
you
want
to
hear
me
talk
that
long,
mayor,
I,
I'll,
just
I,
guess
ask
about
the
enforcement
piece
and
people
on
the
ground
it
we've
heard
about.
You
know
comments
like
Towing,
Is,
Not,
An,
Elegant
solution
or
that
there
might
be
other
Solutions
outside
of
policing.
There
was
references
to
political
Solutions
when
a
reporter
mentioned
those
I
I'm
wondering.
O
Is
there
resistance
at
all
to
enforcing
what
has
become
this
occupation
and
was
it
initially?
It
was
fairly
open
and
welcome
and
I'm
wondering
why
that
messaging
has
changed
so
drastically
from
where
we
were
to
to
where
we
are
now.
B
Thank
you
very
much
counselor
the
resistance.
There
is
no
resistance.
The
capability
is,
we
have
the
resources
in
order
to
interdict
in
any
level.
At
the
beginning,
no,
we
were
managing
a
massive
demonstration
involving
3
000
Vehicles,
three
thousand
trucks,
several
thousand
other
vehicles
that
did
a
influx
into
this
or
into
the
city
from
as
far
away
as
St
John's
in
Victoria
and
Windsor
people
were
determined
to
come
here.
They
were
determined
to
bring
their
vehicles
here
and
determine
to
protest
with
vehicles
on
our
streets,
which
is
different
from
most
demonstrations.
B
Once
we
handle
that
demonstration
from
Thursday
night
Friday,
Saturday
and
Sunday,
it
clearly
turned
into
something
more
than
that,
something
that
now
resembles
a
demonstration
occupation
as
and,
as
others
have
said,
in
Insurrection,
we've
pivoted
our
plans
around
the
reality
of
those
changes.
We've
tried
together
more
resources
and
as
we
get
them,
we've
become
more
able
to
do.
Enforcement
on
a
range
of
issues
from
noise,
bylaws
to
unlawfully
parked
vehicles
to
people
actually
engaging
in
criminal
activity.
B
B
If
we
get
more
cooperation,
we
can
negotiate
our
way
out
of
things
like
we
did
with
Confederation
Park,
so
we're
stepping
up
every
aspect
from
negotiation
to
enforcement,
to
the
invoke
invocation
of
civil
society
and
three
levels
of
government
to
get
a
quick,
lawful
and
safe
end
to
this
demonstration.
That
is
what
we're
trying
to
do
so.
F
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
mayor
Chief.
It
was
reported
actually
over
the
the
lunch
hour.
National
news
was
in
front
of
the
Shadow
Laurier
and
there
were
about
12
or
15
individuals
carrying
gas
cans,
passing
a
police
car,
a
parked
police
car
on
their
way
towards
the
Convoy
and
when
asked
by
the
reporter,
why
they
weren't
being
stopped.
He
said:
well,
it
could
be
water
in
there.
There's,
no
proof
that
there
is
diesel
or
gas.
F
You
could
smell
it,
but
I
guess
that's
the
frustration
that
that
people
support
your
decision
to
stop
and
arrest
folks
coming
in
the
Red
Zone
with
with
gas
delivery
and
then
see
that
today,
so
obviously
with
limited
boots
on
the
ground,
it's
hard
to
stop
everyone,
but
our
canisters
being
checked
verified.
If
there
is
fuel,
is
it
being
confiscated.
B
Thank
you
very
much
for
that
question.
In
fact,
I
referenced
a
couple
of
times
that
there's
counter
measures
being
thrown
at
us,
based
on
our
operational
success
over
the
last
72
hours,
I'll
invite
deputy
chief
Bell
to
provide
some
greater
insights
into
the
nature
of
those
countermeasures
and
why
people
who
are
under
informed
as
to
what's
going
on
may
think
that
we
are
inactive
around
our
interdiction
efforts.
Hi
Steve,
yeah.
S
Thank
you
Chief,
so
Mr
Mayor,
as
was
indicated
by
councilor
Brockington,
one
of
the
strategies
we
are
actually
seeing
employed
is
people
are
entering
the
Zone
carrying
large
quantities
of
water
in
gas
cans.
It
is
in
an
attempt
to
frustrate
our
efforts
to
interdict
the
fuel
going
in.
S
We
we
have,
since
yesterday,
been
actively
involved
in
operations
to
interdict
fuel
entering
the
occupation
area.
We
have
also
stressed
to
our
members
with
the
volatility
at
times
of
the
crowd
that
we've
discussed
as
they
are
looking
at
those
interdiction
efforts.
Officer
safety
needs
to
be
a
consideration
and
an
important
consideration
that
they
apply.
F
How
long
do
we
think
the
request
for
1800
Personnel
will
take
to
deliver?
Are
we
expecting
that
this
week.
B
Thank
you
councilor,
so
our
language
has
been
immediate.
The
reality
is,
and
I
think
I.
My
previous
answer
is
to
councilor
cluche
I
believe
referenced,
that
it
depends
on
which
resources
are
coming
from
which
jurisdictions.
If
the
RCMP
needs
to
pull
10
20
30
40
officers
out
of
BC
or
St
John's,
it
could
be
a
week
or
two
weeks
before
they
actually
arrive
here.
If
we
are
getting
an
extra
two
or
three
officers
from
Cornwall
or
Kingston,
it
could
be
two
hours
before
they
get
here.
B
If
they're
out
of
town,
sorry
out
of
Province
or
RCMP,
we'll
have
to
Spur
them
in
that
will
delay
by
several
days
depends
on
the
nature
of
the
resource.
Some
of
what
we're
asking
for
are
highly
specialized,
highly
skilled,
highly
trained
individuals
they
may
be
and
likely
are
in
high
demand
in
other
police
agencies
and
may
need
to
take
a
while
before
they
can
be
released,
and
they
may
only
be
able
to
come
here
for
several
days.
B
So
while
the
number
1800
is
what
we've
asked
for
we're
likely
not
going
to
get
that
number,
but
we've
asked
for
from
a
breakdown
within
there.
We
might
not
get
what
we've
asked
for
specifically,
but
believe
me,
whatever
we
get,
we
will
deploy
as
quickly
and
as
effectively
as
possible
to
continue
the
range
of
activities
that
deputy
chief
Bell
has
described
early
on.
F
Okay
and
again,
I
know
you
don't
want
to
release
your
strategy
in
public
forum,
but
the
expectation,
as
you
know,
for
well
Chief,
is
that
the
occupation
has
ended
as
soon
as
possible.
You
can't
wait
until
you
get
sort
of
the
full
complement
of
of
boots
on
the
ground
that
you
need.
Are
we
gonna
see
it's
almost
like
a
dissection
of
the
areas
where
occupation
is
and
you
focus
on
one
and
you
close
that
down,
and
then
you
close
down
another
and
we
continue
on
a
daily
basis
to
make
progress.
F
B
Be
clear,
councilor,
that's
exactly
what
I've
said
repeatedly
since
Friday
Saturday
Sunday.
Certainly
today
we
have
been
active
from
the
beginning
with
the
resources
we
have.
We've
used
everything
we
can
to
manage.
The
demonstration
manage
the
impact
of
the
core
demonstration
on
the
immediately
affected
communities,
as
well
as
all
the
growing
locations,
including
now
reaching
out
in
the
suburbs
where
the
demonstration
receives
supplies
we've
been
managing
it
online.
Through
the
financial
systems
we've
been
managing
and
affecting
arrests
through
International
efforts,
including
into
the
United
States,
the
scope
of
operations.
B
The
theater
of
operations
is
massive,
our
numbers
are
finite
and
the
limits
of
our
resources
have
been
stretched
beyond
what
they
should
have
been.
So
we're
constantly
seeking
resources
and
applying
them
wherever
we
can,
we
have
never.
We
have
never
stopped.
We've
only
escalated
where
possible,
and
we
will
continue
to
do
so.
I
like
the
way
you
described
it.
We
look
at
the
highest
risk
where
we
have
available
resources
to
to
mitigate
that
risk
and
apply
it
as
soon
as
we
knock
something
down.
Confederation
Park
we
go
to
the
next
place.
B
We
try
to
contain
what
we've
knocked
down,
so
it
doesn't
become
reoccupied,
like
we're
still
having
a
struggle
at
Coventry
where
we
knocked
it
down,
but
within
hours,
people
have
tried
to
reoccupy
it
or
they've
found
other
staging
locations.
That
is
our
challenge.
Where
we
take
one
can
of
gas
away
and
have
success.
Counter
measures
come
back
almost
immediately
something
else
that
we're
seeing
now
we're
having
potential
supply
lines
for
us
attacked.
I.
B
Literally
in
this
meeting,
a
counselor
has
sent
me
a
message:
identifying
a
critical
logistical
Supply
that
we
needed
that
is
now
being
undermined
by
by
protesters
or
people
Affiliated
protesters
to
stop
their
business
from
supplying
the
needed
equipment
that
we
have
for
our
core
operations.
S
S
That
has
resulted
in
cooperation
with
American
authorities
and
ultimately
ended
up
in
the
arrest
of
a
person
who
initiated
those
threats
from
Putnam
County
Ohio.
So,
as
the
Chiefs
indicated,
we
are
getting
more
than
just
localized
threats,
we're
we're
seeing
investigations
that
are
being
launched
from
across
the
country
and
across
North
America,
particularly,
we
are
repeatedly
receiving
calls
into
our
communication
center
from
across
North
America,
and
these
these
activities
are
are
extremely
detrimental,
extremely
time
consuming
and
extremely
taxing
on
our
resources.
F
My
final
question
is
that
the
various
threats
against
the
personal
safety
of
elected
officials
and
others
I
saw
something
today
and
I,
don't
know
that
what
the
time
stamp
was
on
it,
but
people
making
you
know
clear
threats
to
assassinate
public
officials
and
others
I
I
know
the
Ops
is
looking
into
these.
But
do
you
have
further
comment
on
what
we've
been
seeing
within
the
last
week
to
10
days
in
this
on
this
matter?.
S
Yes,
thank
you
Mr
Mayor.
Thank
you,
Council
Rocky
for
the
question.
That's
one
of
the
investigations
that
I'm
talking
about
so
yes,
we
have
had.
We
have
received
active
threats
to
public
figures
throughout
this
this
occupation.
We
continue
to
investigate
each
and
every
report
that
comes
into
US,
specifically
I,
believe
you're
referencing,
a
threats
that
were
made
to
several
members
of
council
and
other
public
figures
in
the
city.
What
I
can
tell
you
is
that
we
have
an
active
investigation.
S
This
is
the
internet
has
created
this
as
a
North,
American,
primarily
phenomena
we're
receiving
complaints
and
conducting
investigations
from
across
North
America
right
now,
and
we've
had
amazing
cooperation
with
our
American
Partners.
Through
this.
F
C
F
P
You
very
much
Mr
Marin,
thank
you
to
everyone
on
the
call
today
and
all
of
those
people
that
are
working
to
end.
This
Insurrection
in
our
city,
I
had
a
number
of
questions,
but
I
think
I'm
going
to
try
and
be
very
brief
here,
because
I
know
that
the
service
has
important
work
to
be
doing,
but
I
I
was
going
to
start
by
asking
about
those
Jerry
cans,
but
I.
Think,
what's
really
becoming
evident
is
that
this
is
an
organized
professional,
sophisticated
organization.
P
These
are
not
people
from
you
know
some
small
community
in
rural
Alberta
that
came
to
Ottawa
to
you
know,
era
grievance
about
vaccine
mandates
or
border
policies.
This
is
far
beyond
this.
This
is
an
international
effort
coming
out
of
the
primarily
I
believe
the
United
States
of
America.
That
is
intended
to
disrupt
our
democracy
locally,
and
you
can
see
the
sophistication
in
the
effort
that
is
is
how
Happening
Here
with
their
tactics.
These
are
Brazen
tactics,
the
likes
of
which
we
have
never
seen
in
this
country
before
and
they're
escalating,
and
so
I
hope.
P
The
upper
tier
governments
have
heard
the
Cries
From,
The,
Police
Service
and
from
the
city
of
Ottawa
today
that
we
need
all
hands
on
deck
to
help
this,
because
this
is
this
is
a
major
event,
the
likes
of
which
we've
never
seen
and
I
agree
with
all
those
people
that
talked
about
Freedom.
This
is
not
Freedom
what
they
are
fighting
for.
They
are
fighting
to
take
away
our
democracy
and
over
through
our
government.
That's
what
they're
doing
in
a
nutshell.
P
My
one
question
that
I
really
did
want
to
ask
was
about
that
terrible
event
that
happened
overnight
in
Center
town,
with
someone
trying
to
set
up
an
apartment,
building
on
fire
and
tie
people
into
the
building,
and
that
that
just
says
to
me
that
the
escalation
of
their
tactics
knows
no
bounds,
and,
with
that
in
mind,
I
want
to
know
what
kind
of
increased
security
the
people,
especially
in
the
red
zones
of
this
city,
will
have
to
ensure
their
safety.
Based
on
this
Brazen
attack
that
our
city
is
currently
under.
B
S
Yeah
thank
thank
you
very
much
for
the
question,
so
we
we
continue.
We
received
that
and
immediately
initiated
an
investigation.
What
what
I
can
let
you
know
is
that
to
this
point
there
has
been
releases
provided
that
are
looking
to
identify
the
subjects
involved
in
those
and
a
full
investigative
team.
That's
been
dedicated
towards
it
at
the
time
that
we
received
it.
We
did
augment
Security
in
that
area.
S
That
has
been
part
of
the
increased
footprint
we've
we've
provided
in
the
center
Town
Market,
lower
town
and
Sandy
Hill
area
over
the
past
number
of
days.
We
know
absolutely
the
fact
this
is
having
on
our
communities
that
are
surrounding
the
demonstration.
We
know
how
traumatic
it
is.
So
we
are
absolutely
dedicating
resources
and
officers
to
be
on
the
ground,
walking
those
neighborhoods
to
build
back
trust
and
confidence
within
those
areas.
B
Thank
you,
Steve
and
again
just
recognize
I
need
to
release
the
commanders
to
their
focus.
We've
committed
to
almost
three
hours
to
what
was
a
two-hour
meeting.
I'll
continue
on
until
the
very
end,
but
I'd
like
to
release
Steve
Bell.
Now
there.
P
C
H
H
It's
certainly
being
felt
across
the
city.
There's
a
sense
of
helplessness.
The
emails
I'm
getting
in
are
are
constant,
they're
coming
from
my
ward,
quite
a
few
of
them,
and
lots
with
suggestions
and
ideas
and
strategies,
because
they
they
just
want
to
do
something.
There's
a
sense
of
helplessness
and
they're
constantly
asking
me:
what
can
I
do?
What
can
I
do
they?
H
They
really
want
to
participate
in
helping
to
get
rid
of
the
of
this
Convoy
this
this
blockade,
so
I
just
wanted
to
pass
that
on,
because
it's
a
very
strong
feeling
overall,
as
the
liaison
on
women
and
gender
Equity,
I
can't
help
but
notice
the
effect
on
women
and
people
whose
genders
make
them
more
vulnerable
in
a
volatile
situation.
H
I
know
that
women
in
Cornerstone,
homeless,
shelter,
who've
been
hospitalized
because
of
the
stress
of
the
constant
noise
and
of
of
the
of
the
unability
to
sleep,
afraid
to
go
outside
and
people
are
costing
them
on
the
street,
telling
them
to
take
off
their
mass
and
the
situation
with
the
Shepherds
of
Good
Hope
protesters
tried
to
take
food
from
the
homeless
at
their
shelter.
I
also
know
the
gender
diverse
people
who
have
been
aggressively
screamed
at
on
the
street
simply
because
they
have
a
pride
flag
on
their
backpacks.
H
They
have
a
they
have
to
choose
between
going
to
work
in
fear
or
staying
hostages
in
their
home.
This
is
nothing
like
a
normal
demonstration.
This
is
a
this
is
a
blockade
and
I
I
know
that
we
all
want
this
to
end
and
we're
all
concerned
I
I'm
willing,
as
all
counselors,
we're
all
willing
to
work
together.
H
I
appreciate
the
Motions
that
have
been
brought
forward
by
my
colleagues
and
I
appreciate
the
input
from
from
the
from
the
chief
and
from
our
manager
on
on
on
on
making
them
even
stronger,
if
not
as
they
see
fit,
because
there's
going
to
be
ways
to
do
that,
I
do
have
a
question
in
terms
of
of
the
cost
and
and
how
we're
managing
previously,
we
heard
the
figure
eight
hundred
thousand
dollars
a
day
for
for
police
resources.
H
We're
now
hearing
about
that
1800
Personnel
are
needed
about
to
ask
and
residents
will
wonder
how
does
this
affect
the
eight
hundred
thousand
dollars
a
day?
Are
we
asking
for
coverage?
How
is
that
getting
covered?
How
does
that
tie
in
with
this
new
request
and
and
in
terms
of
the
provincial
and
federal
supports?
Thank.
C
You
maybe
if
I,
could
just
start
with
a
comment
counselor
in
discussions
I've
had
with
both
Federal
and
provincial
officials.
It's
been
made
very
clear
that
we
will
be
keeping
track
of
all
of
our
extraordinary
expenses
new
expenses
over
time
Etc,
and
we
will
be
seeking
full
compensation
from
the
other
orders
of
government.
B
Yeah,
thank
you.
Certainly
I
can
ask
Chief
Administration
officer
Blair
dunker,
to
provide
you
with
the
framework
around
how
we've
been
tracking
costs
to
date
and
how
we
will
go
forward
and
then
it'll
have
to
go
back
over
to
Steve
kanalakis
for
the
city
roll
up,
but
they
can
ask
Blair
to
provide
an
answer
to
the
council.
D
Hi,
thank
you
for
the
question.
I've
been
advised
in
terms
of
the
requests
we've
made
around
officers.
I
can
give
you
a
sense
that
it
would
cost
between
1.8
and
2.2
million
per
day,
so
up
from
800
000
into
the
two
and
a
half
million
Mark,
and
that
would
just
be
for
the
officers
we
have
asked
for
other
resources,
but.
L
L
D
That
doesn't
include
City
costs,
of
course,
yeah
thanks
very
much
Mr
Mayor
and
counselor
to
your
question
on
the
city
Side,
along
with
police
services,
we
are
all
tracking
our
costs
associated
with
this.
We
do
that
in
terms
of
any
emergency
that
happens
here
at
the
city,
and
we
will
be
sure
in
terms
of
our
negotiation
with
the
other
levels
of
government
that
all
costs
are
covered,
but
we
also
look
at
Services
where
we've
had
to
close
things
down
and
seeking
recovery
of
those
pieces.
D
At
this
point,
we
really
only
have
a
ballpark
in
terms
of
cost.
Initially,
when
Ops
came
out
with
their
800
000,
we
had
concluded
or
ballparked
estimated
for
the
city.
It
was
going
to
cost
us
about
a
million
a
day
and
it's
going
to
go
up
a
little
bit
higher
than
that,
but.
H
Okay,
thank
you
very
much.
I
appreciate
it
very
much
as
as
councilor
big
like
pointed
out,
the
city
of
Ottawa
is
not
the
target.
We
just
happen
to
be
the
location
of
this
of
this
blockade
and
demonstration
and
I
I.
Think
that
has
to
be
repeated.
I
think
that
was
an
excellent
comment
and
I.
Thank
you
for
that.
We
have
to.
H
We
have
to
show
that
we're
we're
doing
our
part,
but
we
have
been
totally
impacted
and
I
feel
very
sorry,
for
those
that
are
are
hurt
and
I
would
like
to
pass
on
what
what
advice
and
I
think
our
counselors
have
this
for
those
that
feel
helpless.
What
can
they
do?
Of
course
they
want
to
sign
petition.
They
want
to
do
something.
They
want
to
feel
they're
doing
something
for
for
their
fellow
citizens
in
in
Center
Town.
What
advice
can
we
give
them.
H
B
H
About
I
know
you,
for
example,
you
were
talking
about
how
people
are
clogging
up
lines
just
to
you
know
and
I've
had
that
happen
to
me
you
know
they're,
just
calling
to
say
they're,
they're
upset
and
they're
distressed
and
I
understand
that
and
I'm
sure
that
the
stress
lines
are
packed
as
well,
but
if
we
can
give
advice
for
people
of
how
they
can
be
more
helpful
to
you
know
help
end
this
because
they
want
so
badly
for
this
to
go
away
and
there's
just
a
sense
of
frustration.
B
Thank
you,
and
this
will
not
be
by
no
means
an
exhaustive
list
and
they're,
probably
those
better
suited
to
provide
better
at
information,
particularly
on
mental
health
and
and
Stress
Management.
First
thing,
I
would
say
there.
This
has
been
hugely
stressful
and
impactful
and
I
would
encourage
anyone,
including
my
own
service
members,
to
seek
what
what
employment
related
or
or
public
service.
B
It's
not
for
profit
related
supports,
are
around
mental
health,
stresses
Financial
impacts
and
the
range
of
of
direct
and
indirect
impacts
that
people
have
experienced
over
the
last
week
and
a
half
and
can
anticipate
going
forward.
B
I
think
we
we
all
need
to
be
and
I've
seen
great
efforts.
We've
heard
some
other
counselors
describe
you
know
neighbors
working
together,
I
do
want
to
be
cautious.
I
want
to
be
cautioning
around
neighbors
working
together
and
activities
that
could
stray
into
the
realm
of
vigilantism.
Well,
I
understand
the
frustrations
around
that
area.
B
I
think
we
have
to
be
very
cautious
around
language
we
use
as
leaders
and
public
officials
in
that
area,
but
neighbors
looking
after
neighbors
as
we
saw
during
the
2003
Eastern
on
Eastern
continent
blackout,
as
we've
seen
throughout
the
course
of
the
pandemic
and
Ice
storms
and
floods
and
tornadoes
that
is
the
type
of
neighbors
looking
after
neighbors
activity.
We
will
of
course
continue
to
do
everything
we
can
with
the
resources
we
have
and
you've
heard
a
number
of
occasions
around
that
I
think
probably
one
of
the
things
again.
B
Please
don't
use
and
don't
abuse,
9-1-1
call
call
taking
three
one
one
two
one
one
use
it,
but
don't
abuse
it.
If
you
are
calling
try
to
be
as
clear
and
specific
around
what
it
is
we're
experiencing.
A
high
number
of
swatting
calls
Mischief
calls
prank
calls
coming
in,
and
that
is
tying
up
scarce,
9-month
resources
that
could
go
to
police
fire
or
ambulance.
It
is
sending
a
lot
of
resources
in
the
wrong
direction
when
they
need
to
be
focused
in
the
right
direction.
B
I
won't
speak
for
how
that
is
affecting
other
City
departments,
but
I'm
sure
similar
factories
are
at
Play,
probably
more
broadly
I,
think
there's
a
massive
amount
of
information
and,
unfortunately,
a
massive
amount
of
misinformation.
Disinformation
happening
out
there,
that
is
undermining
confidence
and
Clarity
around.
What's
going
on
confidence
in
the
response
of
many
agencies,
not
just
mine
and
I,
think
all
Civil,
Society
leaders
and
elected
official
leaders
have
an
opportunity
and
the
responsibility
to
try
to
manage
that
and
I
know
how
almost
unmanageable
that
is.
B
But
those
are
my
top
of
Mind
thoughts,
but
probably
I
go
back
to
my
first
one.
There
is
huge
stress,
whatever
supports
are
available
within
family
within
Community
within
neighborhood,
within
with
an
employee
basis
within
311
and
211
services.
Please
take
advantage
of
it.
There's
a
lot
of
stress,
rightfully
a
lot
of
stress
people
and
that's
probably
my
number
one
concern.
H
Thank
you,
I
just
want
to
pass
on
the
appreciation
on
on
the
ticketing.
This
is
more
for
I,
guess
for
bylaw
and
police,
but
previously
I'd
asked
about
the
ticketing,
because
we
were
hearing
stories
about
ticketing
happening
out
outside
the
Red
Zone
on
cars
just
parked
an
extra
hour
and
then
nothing
happening
within
the
Red
Zone
and
and
that's
dramatically
changed
and
I
just
want
to
say
that
was
very
much
appreciated.
That
was
very
much
needed
and
and
appreciated,
and
we
have
to
continue
to
do
more.
D
Mr
Mayor
I
know,
I,
know
them's
up
and,
and
you
have
important
work
to
do,
but
do
but
briefly
speak
from
the
heart
and
saying
that
I
represent
one
of
the
words
that's
farthest
from
where
the
occupation
is
occurring,
and
yet
hundreds
of
my
residents
have
reached
out
to
share
their
concern.
Fury
embarrassment,
disgust
and
sorrow
about
what
we
are
seeing
occur
in
our
city
and
I
want
the
residents
of
downtown
to
know
that
there
is
city-wide
empathy
for
what
you
are
going
through
Chief
slowly.
D
Thank
you
for
coming
today
with
a
specific
ask
of
what
additional
resources
we
need
from
our
federal
and
provincial
counterparts.
Appreciating
that
you
cannot
give
us
your
full
operational
plans.
What
can
residents
of
our
city
expect
to
see
change?
Should
we
receive?
Should
we
have
more
boots
on
the
ground?
Is
it
mainly
that
you're
looking
to
improve
the
ratio
between
occupiers
and
officers.
B
Thank
you
counselor
what
they,
what
our
current
operating
model
is,
as
we
believe,
officers
from
demonstration
responsibilities
and
we
can
put
them
into
the
neighborhoods
that
are
most
impacted
by
the
demonstrations
to
pursue
Municipal
provincial
federal
statute
violations.
That's
our
number
one
operational
mode!
That's
the
surgeon
contain
component.
B
Secondly,
resources
that
we
can
free
up
from
the
demonstration
to
go
after
the
supply
of
fuel
food
funds,
things
that
are
sustaining
the
demonstration
and
the
unlawful
acts.
The
unsafe
acts.
That's
what
we're
doing.
We
talked
about
GoFundMe.
We
talked
about
the
Fuel
Depot
at
Coventry.
We're
talking
about
the
can
the
canisters
that
are
still
efforts
going
in.
That
is
the
second
area
third
area
that
we're
looking
to
free
up
resources
is
to
go
after
the
footprints
that
are
in
those
red
zones.
We
brought
down
Confederation
Park
to
negotiations.
B
B
Given
the
events
of
last
night,
the
arson
that
happened
in
Centertown
we're
now
going
to
have
to
deploy
more
resources
to
proactive
patrols
to
literally
watch
buildings
and
alleyways
for
these
types
of
potentially
deadly
activities
that
will
draw
away
from
our
ability
to
do
not
Noise
by
law.
Jerry
can
interdiction
and
larger
scale
movements.
This
has
been,
and
continues
to
be,
an
incredibly
sophisticated,
multi-pronged,
continually
fluid
set
of
exercises.
B
That
is
why,
when
I
know,
when
people
say,
when
can
it
be
over,
what
are
you
going
to
do
exactly
I
can't
give
you
that
answer,
because
it
changes
day
by
day
hour
by
hour
scenario
by
scenario,
with
sufficient
resources,
we
might
be
able
to
start
to
overwhelm
that
level
of
sophistication
and
capability
and
get
back
in
control
of
this
we're
getting
more
control,
we're
getting
wins.
We're
changing
their
behavior
we're
seeing
a
reduction
in
the
footprint,
the
number
of
trucks,
the
number
of
demonstrations.
B
D
D
The
handling
and
use
of
fuel
and
flammable
Goods
has
been
a
real
source
of
concern
for
our
residents
and
I
know
that
Ottawa
fire
Services
has
been
supporting
Ottawa
Ottawa
Police.
Do
our
fire
Services
have
enough
resources
to
assist
with
this
and
not
leave
our
other
communities
vulnerable,
and
should
we
be
asking
for
additional
resources
for
ofs
as
well.
E
No
I
can
I
can
assure
you
that
we
have
adequate
fire
Services.
T
Availability
to
meet
our
regular
service
demands,
as
well
as
to
assist
with
this
operation.
I
D
Thank
you
and
which
I
acknowledge
more
forward,
because
a
lot
of
residents
are
concerned
about
not
only
how
this
is
being
handled
in
real
time,
but
also
what
this
means
for
the
future
of
our
city.
We
are
a
national
capital,
and
yet
it
seems
like
there
is
no
sort
of
comprehensive
plan
to
address
a
multi-jurisdictional
large
political
uprising.
C
B
All
right,
thanks
still
trying
to
negotiate
a
100
officers
out
of
Durham
region,
come
up
here
so
councilor
I
said
this
the
other
day
and
I
I
don't
know
whether
to
registered
or
not.
You
know
the
First
Media
call
I
got
when
this
trucker
Convoy
crossed
Manitoba
and
was
clear
that
it
was
going
to
make
it
all
the
way
to
Ottawa.
B
You
know
Chief.
What
are
you
going
to
do
to
prevent
a
January
6th
Insurrection
event
here
in
the
nation's
conference?
We
don't
have
a
playbook
for
that.
Neither
did
the
did
Washington
DC
on
January
6th,
so
I
think
there
was
one
of
the
Motions
that
came
out
and
we've
been
asked.
I
think
it
was
by
councilor
iglag
to
to
comment
on
specific
motions.
I
think
there
was
a
motion
that
talked
about
the
need
for
some
sort
of
after
action
review.
B
Absolutely
that
should
be
there
and
I
think
the
way
it
was
framed
if
I
heard
it
properly.
Was
this
shouldn't
just
be
a
city
of
Ottawa
Naval,
gazing
exercise,
this
shouldn't
be
hey?
How
could
we
get
the
cops
to
do
better?
This
needs
to
be
three
levels
of
government.
Civil
Society
affected
impacted
victimized
residents
and
stakeholder
groups
representing
those
residents
saying
what
went
wrong
and
I
liked
the
way
it
was
framed
and
what
worked
well
and
how
do
we
do
better
the
next
time,
because
guess
what
folks?
B
If
it
happened
a
year
ago,
January
6
in
Washington
DC,
and
it's
happened
here-
January
27th,
whatever
the
day
it
was
here
in
Ottawa,
it's
going
to
happen
again
a
month
from
now
six
months
from
now
a
year
from
now
pick
a
pandemic
or
large
social
justice
issue
from
now.
Something
like
this
is
obviously
capable
of
happening
again
and
once
you
know
the
likelihood
of
a
risk,
any
good
risk
management
is
to
start
to
work
on
the
mitigation
of
the
likely
next
version
of
it.
So
I
couldn't
agree
more
with
that
motion.
B
I
might
have
some
specific
comments
on
how
to
make
it
more
practical.
I,
don't
think
may
may
2022
is
when
we're
going
to
get
the
answers
that
I
think
you're
looking
for,
but
we
could
certainly
start
to
get
real-time
recommendations
that
in
real
time
can
be
implemented.
So
we're
not
waiting
for
the
end
of
a
glorious
report
to
be
delivered
to
us,
but
as
good
ideas
come
up,
we
Implement
them
as
well
as
we
can,
and
we
we
prepare
ourselves
in
a
continuous,
more
flexible
cycle
that
we
tend
to
do
around
these
issues.
B
But
there
are
lessons
to
be
learned,
good,
bad
and
ugly
out
of
what
have
taken
place
here
and
there
is
lots
of
people
with
lots
of
skin
in
the
game
that
need
to
be
involved
in
those
important
discussions.
So
I
don't
know
if
that
answers
your
question
counselor,
but
that's
my
best
answer.
I
can
give
you
it.
A
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor
and
thank
you.
Councilor
kits,
I
agree
with
all
our
comments
and
thank
you
chief
for
the
comments
on
our
motion.
A
It
is
I
think
you're
reading
the
intent
of
it
correctly
is
that
we
do
want
it
to
cover
the
different
levels
of
government,
including
the
MCC
and
all
different
parts
of
the
city.
That
was
involved.
So
you
know
Ottawa
fire,
as
well
as
the
emergency
preparedness
folks,
Public
Health,
any
agency
that
was
involved
in
this.
What
could
we
do
that?
You
know
to
to
make
it
better
and
I
want
to
recognize
that
some
things
have
worked
really
well
Chief.
A
You
know
you've
been
on
the
hot
seat
now
for
on
what
two
weeks
and
I
know
some
days.
A
But
we
do
need
a
lot
of
the
Lessons
Learned
ready
before
Canada
Day
this
year,
because
I
agree
with
you.
This
is
just
the
first
of
more
of
these
protests
that
are
coming
until
we
can
be
better
prepared
to
or
have
the
tools
to
shut
these
things
down.
So
I'm
hoping
you
will
participate
in
that
one
of
the
frustrations
I've
had
with
this
whole
process
is
the
scaling
up
of
the
resources
and
the
pushing
back
of.
What's
going
on.
A
Here
we
saw
in
Quebec
City,
for
example,
on
the
weekend
where
they
set
up
these
truck
checks,
and
that
seemed
to
have
a
huge
impact
on
that.
So
I'm
hoping
that
that's
a
lesson
learned
and
that
we
can
look
at
trying
to
do
that
coming
forward.
If
you
had
any
comments
on
that
I'd
like
to
hear
it
go
ahead
now,
if
you
want,
then
I'll
ask
the
other
part.
B
Yes,
councilor
the
MTO
operation
or
the
Quebec
provincial
version
of
an
MTO
operation
did
have
effect
positively.
There
we
haven't
seen
that
used
in
other
areas,
the
Toronto
event
out
in
Alberta,
we're
considering
in
here.
There
are
different
differences
between
the
two
provincial
Transportation
operations
and
legislation,
but
as
soon
as
we
saw
that
as
an
effective
technique,
our
traffic
Services
Unit
is
looking
at
considering
for
future
events.
So
that's
a
short
answer:
I
guess.
A
Okay,
if
there
is
legislation
that
needs
to
be
changed
either
provincial
or
Municipal
towards
that,
if
that
gets
identified
either
through
the
report
or
through
actions
your
Department's
taking
ongoing
here,
we
should
try
and
get
that
changed
before
the
other
part
of
the
scaling
up
of
the
resources.
I
I'm
happy
to
hear
you're
looking
for
1800
additional
resources
and
I
realize
that's
not
1800
boots
on
the
ground
tomorrow
or
even
next
week.
A
Okay,
and
are
we
looking
at
Beyond
police
forces
here,
like
OPP,
for
example,
have
auxiliary,
you
know
different
different,
like
are
you
looking
at
all
law
enforcement,
for
example?
Cbsa?
Are
we
looking
for
help
from
some
of
the
other
federal
agencies
that
do
have
law
enforcement
authorities.
B
Yes,
sir,
you
you
would
have
heard
earlier
on
city
manager
channelack
as
reference
to
a
series
of
calls
daily
calls
that
he
and
I
have
been
on
with
provincial
and
federal
counterparts
from
solicitor
general
through
to
Public
Safety
Canada
and
several
Ministries
at
the
federal
level.
One
of
the
earlier
conversations
at
the
end
of
last
week
was
the
role
of
cbsa
in
interdicting
protesters
and
weapons
and
supports
coming
across
the
border.
B
In
the
same
meeting,
there
was
an
offer
that
should
we
have
a
large
resource
request
that
the
federal
government
as
a
whole
had
capabilities
well
beyond
just
policing
resources
that
might
come
to
bear
on
that.
That's
why
you
see.
We've
said
police
and
civilian
within
that
1800.
There
may
be
civilian
crime,
analysts
and
maybe
civilian
cyber
investigators.
There
may
be
civilian,
Financial,
HR
and
I.T
capabilities
that
will
augment
our
ability
to
raise
our
game,
sustain
our
operations,
resist
some
of
the
attacks
we're
having
on
our
infrastructure
from
a
cyber
standpoint.
A
Are
you
looking
internationally
too,
because
you
know
it's
clear,
there's
an
American
component
to
this
and
I
would
believe
that
the
FBI,
for
example,
would
have
a
lot
of
interest
in
wanting
to
likely
help
us
out
to
try
to
identify
who
those
resources
are
that
are
involved
in
this
kind
of
activity.
So
are
you
even
looking
beyond
our
borders
for
that
to
help?
Yes,.
B
Sir
we've
been
engaged
with
through
thesis
and
RCMP
the
full
range
of
international
security
agencies,
national
security
agencies
very
specifically
and
I.
Think
you
heard
deputy
chief
Steve
Bell
talk
about
several
ongoing
investigations,
including
death
threats
to
city
councilors
and
public
officials,
where
we've
engaged
Homeland
Security
and
the
FBI
through
them
into
state
and
local
authorities,
in
order
to
identify
arrest
in
one
case
identify
in
another
case
and
through
cbsa,
their
counterparts
and
Border
in
the
United
States
around
interdictions
at
the
border.
A
Thank
you.
I've
only
got
a
couple
more
quick
questions,
one
of
which
is
something
we're
hearing
about
more
so
last
week
than
last
weekend,
I
I
noticed
a
big
difference
with
the
pitchers
and
and
the
social
media
feeds
coming
out
of
the
weekend.
We
didn't
see
the
the
symbols
of
hate
that
were
so
disturbing
to
everybody.
The
week
before
you
know,
I
I
don't
even
want
to
give
them
any
credit
by
naming
them
here.
I
think
we
all
know
what
we're
talking
about.
I
I
want
to
know
like
do.
A
We
have
any
intelligence,
whether
they
were
part
of
the
protester.
Were
these
suburbs
that
came
in
and
attached
themselves
to
that
protest
and
were
there
do
we
know
if
there
was
a
lot
like
personally
and
from
talking
to
colleagues
I've
only
seen
a
couple
of
different
pictures,
but
it
seems
that
different
angles
of
those
pictures
were
used
as
well.
So
if
you
want
to
comment
on
that
or
if
it's
an
ongoing
piece-
and
you
don't
want
to
I'll-
understand
that
so.
B
Again,
I've
been
very
clear:
I'll.
Do
it
again,
so
thank
you
for
the
question.
Counselor
it
was
clear
to
us
remains
clear:
the
seven
convoys
that
came
from
BC
across
and
the
convoys
that
came
up
from
Windsor
through
the
gtha,
the
400
series
highways.
That's
the
bulk
of
the
trucker
protest,
they're
embedded
at
Wellington
Street,
predominantly
as
well
as
the
Sir,
John
and
McDonald.
B
B
I'm
trying
to
find
the
right
word,
those
who
came
to
express
their
hate
and
latched
on
to
this
event
as
a
place
and
a
venue
around
which
to
spew
the
worst
filth
that
we
can
imagine.
We
have
had
a
substantial
level
of
success
in
negotiations
with
the
original
Convoy
group
to
reduce
the
number
of
trucks,
the
size
of
demonstrations
and
the
activities
around
those
footprints
on
Wellington
and
at
the
St
John
and
McDonald.
B
We
have
had
little
effect
on
the
Lone
Wolf
hate-filled
criminal
intended
groups
that
have
come
I,
suspect,
locally
provincially,
nationally
and
internationally
into
this
space.
They
come
and
they
go
with
a
lot
of
random
activity,
but
an
increasingly
coordinated
ability
to
frustrate
our
efforts.
I
think
it
was
councilor
McKinney,
actually
that
that
really
described
that
effect
that
we
were
all
seeing
midweek.
B
Last
week
there
was
sort
of
a
demonstration
in
the
footprint
the
Red
Zone
and
the
rest
of
the
insanity
taking
place
around
it,
and
we've
had
to
start
to
split
our
resources
around
that
and
that
again
becomes
more
difficult
when
you
have
to
split
resources
around
multiple
different
causes,
multiple
different
agitators,
multiple
different
criminal
elements
and
and
as
it's
spread
out
from
the
core
I
think
as
councilor
dudas
talked
about
it,
it
spreads
our
resources
more
thin,
so
I
come
back
to
it
again,
sir.
All
of
what
you're
observing
is
accurate.
C
A
Seconds,
okay,
yeah,
I'm,
hoping
as
part
of
the
report
we
can
get
into
instead
of
me
getting
into
too
many
questions
on
the
the
planning
piece.
Now
there
are
certain
things
that
I'd
like
to
get
answers
to
so
we'll
address
them
to
you
later
when,
when
you've
had
a
chance
to
get
a
break
from
everything,
and
we
get
this
resolved
one
quick
question
that
cannot
wait,
though,
is
you're
leading
a
force.
That's
dealing
with.
You
know
Cuts.
A
In
our
last
budget
cycle,
there
was
a
lot
of
talk
about
cutting
even
further
I
I
want
to
get
a
sense
from
you
if,
if
you're
going
to
be
okay
to
manage
this,
if
we
as
a
council
need
to
do
anything
to
get
more
funding
to
you,
if
you'd
like
to
speak
to
that
I'd
like
to
give
you
an
opportunity
to
give
us
a
heads
up,
if
you're
going
to
need
things.
C
And
I'd
ask
our
staff,
who
are
answering
questions
to
be
brief
as
well.
We
want
to
get
through
this
list.
The
chief
has
then
asked
for
a
recess
for
about
20
minutes
to
review
the
court
decision
and
how
it
impacts
some
of
the
motions,
and
then
we
have
I
think
the
last
count,
13
motions.
So
if
we
could
try
to
be
brief
on
both
questions
and
answers
and
then
we
can
get
through
this
at
a
reasonable
time
and
get
the
chief
back
to
doing
his
number
one
priority
dealing
with
this
crisis.
B
You
mayor
first
answer:
we
in
our
letter
to
the
mayor
that
he's
forwarded
on
to
the
two
levels
of
government
we've
asked
for
full
cost
recovery,
so
there's
no
impact
on
our
operating
budget.
Therefore,
the
city's
responsibilities
in
regards
to
that
our
chair
has
been
active
in
that
and
and
has
worked
with
the
mayor.
So
that's
the
first
thing.
B
The
second
thing
there
is
an
ongoing
and
important
discussion
between
the
board
and
the
service
around
flattening
the
cost
curve
of
policing,
but
within
all
that,
and
the
chair
has
been
player,
won't
speak
for
her
I've
been
clear.
There
are.
There
are
elements
in
policing
that
are
unpredictable,
I,
don't
think
any
of
us
predicted.
We
would
have
the
tragedy.
B
That
was
the
explosion
in
Maryvale
in
the
first
week
of
the
year,
that
Drew
in
massive
police
resources
and
City
resources
for
days
on
end
as
we
recovered
bodies
and
secured
that
site,
and
we
still
haven't
even
talked
about
the
impact
of
the
inquests
and
coroners
in
quests.
That
will
come
from
that,
and
then
we
had
this
one.
So
this
is
a
challenge
with
policing
in
a
major
jurisdiction
like
this.
In
the
nation's
capital,
this
is
not
a
normal
budgeting
process
where
we
can
have
predictable
environments
around
which
we
can
we
can.
B
We
can
allocate
Resources
with
great
certainty
and
and
and
confidence.
This
is
a
clear
example
of
those
challenges,
but
I
again,
I
would
leave
that
to
chair
deems
in
a
row
as
chair
of
the
board
and
and
the
city
staff
in
terms
of
how
it
would
seek
to
frame
this
incident
in
a
larger
funding
equation,
that
for
the
city
going
forward
and
we'll
contribute
as
best
as
we
can
to
that.
A
Okay,
thank
you
Chief
and
thank
you
Mr
Mayor.
That's
it
for
me.
N
Apologies
Mr,
Mayor
I,
don't
I
have
a
big
stump
speech
or
anything
so
I'll
just
get
right
to
it.
N
Chief
last
night
was
probably
the
first
time
that
I
actually
had
a
bit
of
a
oh.
Thank
goodness
moment
when
I
saw
Coventry
what
was
happening
there
I
sometimes
just
listen
in
on
the
Zello
trucker
Channel
and
clearly
it
it
has
shaken
them.
There
was
some
good
movement
because
the
perception
Auto
up
till
now
is
this
group
has
received
the
weight,
glove
treatment
and
finally
we're
starting
to
see
things
I'm
hearing
it's
because
of
the
numbers.
I
saw
the
the
group
that
was
in
there
last
night.
N
Clearly
they
were
much
much
more
a
big
big
people
going
in
there.
They
were
organized
unlike
traffic
cops
and
street
corners.
It
was
a
very
tactical
Force
that
being
said,
I'm
I,
guess,
I
guess.
My
couple
of
quick
questions
are:
there
was
just
a
tweet
recently
by
by
Ottawa
Police
Service,
and
it's
very
concerning
I.
Don't
originally
media
and
myself
were
kind
of
confused
thinking.
Maybe
it
was
a
hack.
It
seems
to
be
a
sympathizer
style,
tweet.
N
I
think
the
public
needs
to
know
what
that
was
about
and
surely,
while
you're
during
in
this
meeting.
Maybe
you
don't
know
all
the
details,
but
I
think
we
have
to
know
what
that
tweet
was
about
and
how
it's
going
to
be
dealt
with,
and
if
it
was
a
sympathizer
within
armed
for
us
how
it's
going
to
be
how
it's
going
to
be
dealt
with.
N
I'm,
assuming
you'll
probably
get
briefed
on
break
second
I
think
when
it
comes
to
I,
don't
know
if
Steve
canalakis.
It's
best
to
answer
this
when
it
comes
to
the
towing
issue.
Obviously,
passing
that
motion
very
critical
to
be
able
to
free
up
funds.
Do
we
have
people
on
the
toying
list
standing
off
our
list
now
that
have
refused
to
go
pick
up
vehicles
or
we
see
a
challenge
there.
N
Now
I
have
an
inquiry
that
will
come
in
at
the
end.
This
this
really
upsets
me
if
people
aren't
living
up
to
their
legal
obligations
and
want
to
do
business
with
the
city.
That's
a
problem,
I'm
glad
we
passed
the
motion
to
be
able
to
circumvent
that.
But
will
there
be
ramifications-
and
this
is
in
my
inquiry-
and
you
take
time
and
answer
later
ramifications
for
people
that
aren't
fulfilling
their
legal
obligation
to
the
city.
F
N
Great
and
again
it
was
a
real
eye-opener
walking
around
downtown
with
with
councilman
Kenny,
Minard
and
and
everybody
else
even
live
when
I
was
on
air
I
got
screamed
at
it's,
it's
a
very
toxic
environment
down
there.
So
while
I'm
happy
things
are
starting
to
move,
it's
it's
not
where
it
should
be
at
I.
I
feel
a
big
concern.
If
we
don't
address
this
issue
before
this
next
upcoming
weekend,
because
let's
face
it,
you
don't
have
to
be
a
rocket
scientist.
No
it's
the
weekends
When
the
Crowds
come.
N
B
It'll
happen
as
soon
as
we
can
make
it
happen
as
soon
as
those
resources
come
in
and
we
can
step
up
our
efforts
we
will
counselor
I
I
do
want
to
based
an
issue
that
I'm
not
aware
of
I
asked
who
my
head
of
strategy
and
Communications
John
steinbecks
to
to.
Let
me
know:
what's
going
on
he's
signing
on
right
now
and
he'll
provide
an
answer
to
your
question,
or
at
least
some
context
to
it,
and
I
can
comment
on
it
at
that
point.
B
I
still
haven't
seen
the
Tweet
itself,
but
I've
asked
for
some
more
context
and
and
clarity
as
to
what
your
concerns
are
so
I
don't
know
mayor
I'll,
leave
it
to
you
as
to
when
or
if
you
would
allow
that.
But
as
I
said,
I
haven't
been
briefed
in
three
and
a
half
hours,
and
that's
news
to
me.
Okay,.
N
And
I
have
a
one
more
question:
Mr
Mayor
about
accommodation
when
I
was
on
the
board.
I
always
had
questions
about
accommodation,
the
numbers
always
they
were
getting
high
at
one
point,
it
was
about
99.
how
many
of
our
sworn
members
are
on
accommodation
right
now,
and
is
this
an
impact
on
what's
going
on.
B
Thank
you
very
much
that
has
been
well
tabled
through
our
public
meetings
with
the
board.
That
is
a
priority
that
we've
had
in
place
from
before
I
even
arrived
here
and
I
certainly
stepped
up.
It
was
one
of
the
main
priorities
prior
to
the
budget
challenges
we're.
Having
now
for
our
new
Chief
Administration
officer,
Blair
dunker
I
would
ask
Blair
if
you
have
any
numbers
handy
or
you
could
provide
some
context,
but
the
number
of
available
officers
is
a
factor
in
our
ability
to
deploy
a
full
complement
of
budgeted
officers.
D
N
Well,
are
we
going
to
get
a
briefing
on
what
I
was
asking
about
later
on
about
the
tweets,
yeah
I
I,
it's
very
concerning
the
public
is
pretty
upset
about
it
and
it
does
read
kind
of
poorly,
so
I'll
give
the
chief
and
you
know
again,
John
Steinbeck.
If
he's
able
to
get
on
here,
I
think
comms
was
my
last
question
on
the
first
day
of
the
protest
when
it
was
a
protest
before
an
occupation
to
get
translation
back.
N
It
took
24
hours
based
on
that
tweet
and
I'm,
hoping
we've
refined
that,
knowing
that
we
have
this
big
company,
that's
doing
communication,
stuff
and
I
just
I
think
that's.
One
of
our
stumbling
blocks
is
the
communication
side
of
things.
That's
all
I
have
Mr
Mayor.
C
R
Thank
you
very
much.
Mr
Mr
Mayor
and
a
lot
of
questions
been
asked,
but
I
have
to
ask
a
different
question,
probably
to
the
city
manager
or
maybe
Dave.
What
is
he
still
with
us
Dave
White
Dave.
Can
you
tell
us
the
difference
between
the
Civic
declare
and
state
of
emergency
reverse
if
the
province
would
have
declared
a
state
of
emergency?
Just
briefly,
the
difference
between
that
two.
K
Certainly
Mr
Mayor
to
confirm
I
I
am
still
here.
The
the
municipal
declaration
under
Section
for
the
the
statute
provides
very
limited
Authority.
It
provides
only
the
authority
to
issue
orders
that
are
not
otherwise
contrary
to
law,
so
there
were
no.
There
are
no
specific
extraordinary
powers,
the
power
to
impose
a
curfew
or
anything
like
that
that
are
vested
in
the
city
or
the
mayor.
As
a
result
of
that
declaration,
that
can
be
contrasted
with
a
provincial
declaration,
which
is
under
Section
seven
of
the
same
statute.
K
There
are
specific
Powers,
many
of
which
you've
seen
exercised
by
The
Province
over
the
course
of
the
the
pandemic,
with
respect
to
the
ability
to
to
restrict
the
the
the
access
to
people
in
certain
areas
and
at
certain
times
those
you
know
to
control
the
the
flow
of
of
goods
and
things
like
that
to
to
affect
prices,
and
things
like
that,
so
that
that
framework
exists
for
the
province
if,
for
example,
and
you'll
see
reference
to
it
in
the
memo.
K
K
Mr
Mayor,
the
mere
fact
of
the
Declaration
does
not
does
not
give
the
police
any
additional
powers
in
that
regard.
It
gives
the
The
Province,
essentially
the
cabinet,
the
ability
to
make
orders
to
address
the
emergency
which
can
then
be
enforced
by
police.
So,
as
I
said,
that's
what
you've
seen
during
the
covet
pandemic,
but
it
does
not
expand
existing
police
powers
in
that
way.
R
Vehicles
is
being
used
in
many
incidents
is
mixed
with
the
public,
with
the
demonstrator,
with
with
the
community
with
children
I'm
going
to
have
a
direction
after
you
know,
asking
the
mayor
to
talk
to
his
Federal
and
provincial
to
make
sure
in
the
future
vehicle
should
be
banned
from
part
of
the
demonstration
we
all
know
under
the
charter
street
right.
You
have
the
right
to
to
express
your
freedom,
but
vehicles
in
those
areas
and
we've
seen
vehicles
in
other
jurisdictions.
They
cause
some
harm
and
damage
to
to
everyone.
Do
you
do
you
agree?
R
B
In
principle,
counselor,
thank
you
for
your
question.
Sorry
in
principle,
I
would
I
would
support
anything
that
makes
I
I,
probably
will
butcher
counselor
luloff's
eloquence
earlier
on,
but
anything
that
supports
the
Charter
of
Rights
in
this
democracy
in
the
truest
sense
in
which
it
was
intended
not
in
the
way
it's
been
perverted
in
in
this
and
other
circumstances,
and
I
I
would
support
that.
B
That
is
an
area
of
Charter
law
that
you
know
I'm
a
cop,
not
a
lawyer,
I,
think
that
is
an
important
area
for
exploration
in
an
after
action
review
for
what
types
of
legislative
changes
you
know,
Federal,
provincial
and
municipal
I
I
think
that's
a
necessary
area
of
exploration,
but
that
is
a
level
of
Charter.
Discussion
is
a
vehicle.
A
bicycle
is
an
electric
bicycle.
Is
it
a
a
wheelchair?
B
An
electric
wheelchair
I
know
we're
talking
about
trucks,
massive
big
trucks
that
can
kill
people,
but
we've
had
deaths
from
electric
bicycles
as
well
and,
and
so
I
just
think
it's
a
thoughtful
question.
It
requires
a
thoughtful
response.
Well,
beyond
my
ability
other
than
to
say
anything
that
makes
protest
more
peaceful,
more
lawful,
more
safe
I
would
be
in
support
of
intensity.
R
Well,
well,
it's
it's
good
to
hear
that,
but
also
you
know
we're
all
thinking
ahead.
You
know
we
want
to
make
sure
that
doesn't
become
customary
every
time.
You
know.
We
know
that
people
have
the
right
to
demonstrate,
but
to
bring
those
Machinery
to
to
the
demonstration.
We
need
to
find
a
way
one
of
the
area
I'm
like
I'm
sure,
to
explore
it
with
with
your
folks
and
your
own
legal
team.
Have
we
thought
about
a
court
conjunction
to
be
able
to
seize
the
vehicles
are
involved
in
this
demonstration?
R
B
Council
we
have
on
a
number
of
levels
so
seizing
the
vehicle
in
the
moment
and
in
the
fence,
yes
seizing
the
vehicle
at
a
later
date.
We've
talked
about
using
the
footprint,
particularly
in
Wellington
as
a
pound
itself,
so
we
don't
have
to
worry
about
Towing
those
Vehicles
away.
B
They
just
remain
in
place
while
we
take
care
of
people
who
are
in
and
around
that
vehicle,
all
those
options,
we're
also
Consulting
with
crowns
and
have
been
for
a
while
around
whether
or
not
any
of
this
represents
a
criminal
offense
and
a
criminal
Enterprise,
in
which
case
there
are
further
processes
around
which
evidence
can
be
gathered,
including
vehicles
and
and
chattels
Associated
to
it.
B
So
we're
looking
at
literally
everything
and
we've
requested
in
in
the
letter
that
we
sent
to
the
mayor
today,
we
requested
the
convening
of
three
levels
of
government
in
other
areas,
like
environmental
Public,
Health
MTO,
to
consider
the
fullest
range
of
existing
or
potentially
evolving,
legislation,
to
give
us
more
power
to
lay
charges
more
consequences
and
if
the
consequences,
including
the
seasons
of
vehicles,
end
of
insurance,
end
of
Licensing.
Anything
that
could
have
a
material
impact
on
the
overall
circumstances
that
we're
seeing
there
in
the
city.
R
Well,
I,
don't
have
any
more
questions,
but
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
Chief
to
you
to
the
leadership
to
all
the
partners
been
working
with
you
and
under
your
command
and
today
we're
on
day
11,
and
we
can
be
thankful,
we
don't
have
casualty,
we
don't
have
injuries
and
we've
seen
what
happened
in
other
area.
When
you
know
I,
don't
have
to
remind
you
about
Toronto
and
the
G20,
how
things
turn
around
against
everything
we're
doing
so
I.
Just
don't
want
that
to
be
a
forgotten.
R
How
much
we
appreciate
the
men
and
women
that
work
in
long
hours
and
keep
on
their
cool
trust
me
to
be
able
to
continue
being
antagonized
and
act
professionally.
I
must
say
is
is
is,
is
is
something
to
be
proud
of
of
the
membership
and
how
they
are
handling
the
situation.
So
that's
our
message
to
their
membership
through
you.
Thank
you.
Thank.
E
Thank
you
mayor.
A
couple
areas
I
wanted
to
ask
about.
One
was
around
Transit
these,
let's
call
them.
Blockades
are
significantly
impacting
bus
transit.
Thank
goodness
we
have
the
O
train
LRT
running
underground,
so
at
least
we
have
a
way
to
get
passengers
East-West
through
downtown,
but
there's
significant
impacts
to
any
route.
Any
surface
route,
the
past,
downtown
and
and
Gatineau
is
there
being
a
priority
being
placed
on
restoring
the
roads
that
we
rely
on
for
bus
service
in
the
downtown
area.
C
P
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
question
for
sure
that
our
goal
is
to
to
go
back
in
the
south
in
downtown,
for.
Q
Sure,
but
we
want
to
do
it
safely
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we'll
be
able
to
run
the
buses,
and
we
will
We
want
to
make
sure
that
our
either
customers
are
our
bus.
Drivers
will
will
do
it
safely.
E
From
an
enforcement
point
of
view,
though,
is
there?
Is
there
a
priority,
perhaps
perhaps
Chief,
slowly
or
even
even
Chief,
ayat
around?
If
we're
picking
and
choosing
areas
where
we
should
be
reopening,
are
we
prioritizing
Transit
routes?
First.
Q
Actually,
we,
we
cannot
run
the
bosses
because.
E
Right
and
that's
just
it
so
I
I,
just
I,
haven't
heard
anyone
speak
about
transit
in
any
of
the
updates
other
than
it's
not
running
and
I
think
it
is
important
that
we
we
give
our
residents
at
least
some
idea
of
what
the
what
the
plan
is
to
restore
you
know,
even
even
that
choke
point
near
the
war
memorial,
that's
impassable,
basically
to
regular
traffic
or
you
know,
through
Rito
Street,
the
ongoing
closure
of
of
the
Rito
Center
I'm
asking
if
there
is
a
operational
plan
from
security
or
OC
Transpo,
to
make
those
a
priority
as
the
first
roads
and
routes
that
are
reopened
first,
as
we
continue
to
clear
and
contain
the
occupation.
C
B
Thank
You,
mayor
and
councilor
shortest
way
to
say
the
risk
priorities
that
we
look
at
are
our
first
Public
Safety.
So,
for
instance,
any
incursion
into
an
area
that
will
block
the
emergency.
Lane
is
a
major
priority
and
so
far
through
negotiation
and
efforts
of
enforcement,
we've
been
able
to
keep
those
emergency
lanes
open
and
increase
the
number
of
emergency
lanes.
B
A
lot
of
the
enforcement
that
we
took
place
on
Saturday
we've,
basically
almost
fought
for
an
entire
day,
with
a
huge
amount
of
charges
on
probably
an
entire
city
block
worth
of
emergency
Lane
that
we
finally
got
opened
again,
and
if
we
tried
to
maintain
that
we
risk
rank
each
of
those
footprints
around
where
they're
blocking
access
Lanes
to
the
emergency,
normal
routes
to
and
from
hospitals.
Other
critical
infrastructure,
bus
and
transportation
are
critical
infrastructure.
So
that
is
part
of
the
consideration
and
we
have
city
workers
embedded
within
our
Command
Center.
B
So
they
can
inform
us
around
things
like
what
would
be
better
to
open
or
what
would
be
more
detrimental
to
be
closed
as
part
of
our
risk
ranking
on
a
daily
basis
about
where
we
target
the
more
resources
we
have,
the
quicker
we
can
Target.
Those
major
risks,
knock
them
down,
get
to
the
next
level
and
the
next
level.
That's
what
we're
trying
to
do
here,
assuming
we
don't
have
new
risks,
new
threats
that
draw
more
resources
away.
B
That's
exactly
the
approach
highest
risk,
best
resources,
knock
it
down,
move
to
the
next
one,
knock
it
down,
move
to
the
next
one.
As
we
knock
out
an
area
we
try
to
contain
it.
So
we
don't
have
to
go
back
to
it.
We
try
to
stop
other
areas
from
springing
up,
so
we
don't
have
to
spread
those
resources
again,
but
that's
essentially
the
modality
we've
been
in
for
the
last
four
or
five
days,
more
research.
E
Okay,
thank
you,
chief.
That
is
helpful
related
to
that
on
paratranspo
I've
got
to
think
there
must
be
people
living
downtown
who's
whose
access
to
paratranspo
must
be
extremely
limited.
Are
there
accommodations
being
made
to
make
sure
that
people
who
rely
on
paratranspo
have
the
ability
to
to
move
around
the
city.
D
We
put
on
our
sit
web,
the
information
that
for
people
who's
living
downtown
and
who
need
that
transport.
They.
D
Other
stakeholders,
but
for
sure
it's
it's
a
priority
for
us,
because
they
cannot
walk.
H
D
E
Okay,
merci
I
want
to
shift
to
the
question
of
of
an
injunction
as
I
understand
it.
There's
no
injunction
identified.
That
would
help,
but
there
may
be
an
opportunity
or
there
may
be
a
reason
to
seek
an
injunction
procedurally.
Is
that
something
that
staff
have
delegated
authority
to
pursue
on
their
own?
Or
does
the
mayor
have
authority
to
to
ask
for
that
to
be
to
be
pursued
through
the
state
of
emergency
or
or
does
it
need
to
come
through
Council
for
approval?
If
we
go
that
route.
K
Mr
Mayor,
generally
speaking,
my
office
has
delegated
authority
to
commence
any
proceedings
necessary
to
defend
in
advance
of
the
interests
of
the
city
in
that
regard.
Obviously
it's
always
subject
to
to
such
direction
as
Council
wishes
to
give,
but
in
my
view
again
provided
that
it
is
in
support
of
the
the
overall
kind
of
operational
plan,
and
it's
not,
for
example,
like
you
know,
intervening
in
a
civil
matter
between
other
priorities.
My
office
does
have
that
Authority.
E
Okay,
thank
you.
Two
quick
thoughts.
First
of
all,
I
think
Chief
slowly
has
mentioned
a
number
of
times.
We
have
avoided
a
riot.
We
have
avoided
Serious
injury.
We
have
avoided
fatalities,
that's
a
significant
accomplishment,
I'm,
not
sure
that
would
have
been
the
case
in
some
other
cities
in
North
America.
E
So
thank
you,
Chief
to
you
and
to
your
officers
and
staff
for
for
keeping
us
safe
in
that
regard,
and
I
would
also
like
to
quickly
thank
all
of
the
counselor
assistants
who
have
been
helping
us
as
counselors
to
respond
to
the
many
phone
calls
emails
and
messages
about
many
thoughtful
comments
from
residents,
but
some
downright
bizarre
and
disturbing
emails
that
we
receive
as
well,
and
we
can't
thank
our
assistance
enough
for
the
help
that
they
provide
us
through
crises
like
these.
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor,.
C
Yeah,
that's
a
very
good
point.
Counselor
thank
you
for
saying
that
councilor
McKinney,
please.
Q
Thank
you,
Mr
mayor,
going
to
make
comments.
You
have
my
motion,
you
know
I
think
as
a
we
have
to
think
about.
As
today
as
a
the
world
looks
on
really
in
in
disbelief
at
what
is
happening
in
our
city.
It
really
is
incomprehensible
that
we're
here
on
day,
11.
Q
Both
have
fallen
to
a
mob
and
I
can
tell
you
this.
That
today
is
Monday.
February
7th
I
am
more
worried
for
my
residents.
Today,
February
7th
than
I
was
last
Monday.
January,
31st
and
I
can
tell
you
that,
for
anyone
who
thinks
that
this
past
weekend
was
more
successful
than
last
has
not
considered
what
that
means
for
residents,
it
was
not
more
successful.
Q
Q
So
unless
you
were
here,
unless
you
came
downtown
and
you
saw
it,
you
cannot
in
any
way
think
that
this
weekend
was
a
success.
Numbers
are
not
the
issue.
Numbers
are
not
the
issue.
We
opened
up
a
chasm
to
show
us
in
this
in
this
country
in
this
city,
that
we
have
such
an
ugly
side
and
it's
come
in
and
it's
and
it's
glaring
and
it
is
as
a
result
of
ongoing
inequities.
Q
It's
you
know
polarization
and
in
politics,
but
I
can
tell
you
that
there
is
still
no
urgency
in
this
city
for
what
is
happening
to
residents.
I
went
down
to
Bank
Street
on
Saturday
and
I.
Don't
unless
you
were,
there
is
no
way
to
describe
it.
You
can't
even
look
at
pictures.
Q
Q
You
know
I
spent
two
hours
down
on
Kent
Street
yesterday
and,
while
you
know
I
didn't
take
it
lightly,
I
went
down
tried
to
get
them
to
think
about
the
injunction
that
was
coming
to
sign
it.
I
can
tell
you
this:
it
wasn't
until
I
left,
Kent,
Street
and
I
started
to
walk
home
down.
Lisgar
and
I
was
kind
of
that's
when
I
was
in
more
danger,
because
it's
the
people
out
in
the
neighborhood.
It's
the
people
who
are
roaming,
our
neighborhoods
they're
in
trucks
they're
in
big
trucks.
Q
They
are
emboldened,
we're
not
doing
a
thing.
Nobody
in
two
hours
on
Kent
Street
I,
saw
not
one
police
officer.
My
whole
way
home,
not
one
I
was
more
frightened
walking
home
than
I
was
on
Kent
in
the
middle
of
it
speaking
to
them.
So
people
do
they
remain
terrified.
They're
traumatized
they're
fleeing
their
homes.
If
anybody
could
leave
they're
gone
animals
are
going
hungry.
Q
Q
Q
At
the
same
time
as
it's
keeping
residents
safe,
it's
not
possible.
It's
not
about
numbers,
it's
about
prioritizing
it's
about
separating
them
out,
so
that
we
have
an
entire
force
dedicated
to
keeping
people
safe,
we're
begging
you!
We
are
begging
you,
this
country,
this
province,
a
city,
we're
begging,
you
to
collectively
come
together
to
defend
one
presidential
neighborhood.
Just
it's
not
about
numbers.
It's
about
an
extreme
element
by
just
roaming
around
the
streets
of
our
residential
neighborhoods
and
I,
can
tell
you
it's
not
safer
out
there.
Q
Only
a
man
would
say
that
today,
I
can't
send
I'll
tell
you.
Success
will
be
in
the
outcomes.
My
outcome
will
be
when
my
daughter
can
get
to
school
on
the
LRT,
because
right
now,
I
can't
send
her
young
young
girl
with
a
mask
on
we're
hearing,
what's
happening
on
the
LRT
it'll,
be
when
people
start
to
move
back
in
their
homes
when
women
can
go
out
after
Dark
and
people
were
queer,
black
indigenous
Jewish
can
just
go
downtown
walk
in
their
neighborhoods.
Q
It's
when
people
can
go
back
to
get
pet
food
and
people
aren't
asking
us
if
it's
safe
to
go
to
their
grocery
store
down
the
street
that
that
is
when
we
will
have
some
success.
That
is
when
we
can
say
we
had
a
better
weekend,
but
until
then
I
really
I,
don't
know
what
more
to
say:
it's
not
working.
What
we're
doing
is
not
working.
1800
is
not
the
number.
Last
week
it
was
150
and
that
meant
20
new
people
in
Centertown.
It's
not
it's
not
enough.
Q
C
Thank
you
very
much
councilor
councilor
leaper.
Please.
N
Thank
you
and
thank
you
Catherine
chief
I
I
cannot
describe
to
you
the
anger
and
the
powerlessness
and
the
fear
that
I
am
hearing
about
from
residents.
N
But
as
long
as
these
protesters
have
some
critical
mass
downtown,
the
effects
that
Catherine
just
spoke
about
are
being
felt
around
the
city.
People
are
harassed
on
LRT
for
wearing
a
mask.
They
are
being
harassed
in
in
Westborough
and
hintonburg.
Walking
down
the
street
by
men
in
trucks,
with
hateful
slogans
on
them,
clerks
and
lcbos,
and
college
Ward
are
are
being
harassed.
N
No
one
in
this
city
is
safe
as
long
as
these
demonstrators
continue
to
be.
There
I
heard
last
week
early
in
days
about
the
reticence
that
police
had
to
enforce
the
law,
the
risks
that
you
felt
that
that
would
put
are
bylaw
officers
and
our
police
officers.
In
this
weekend
we
saw
a
counter
protest
that
was
peaceful.
N
I
want
to
ask
you
today
whether
you
can
assure
the
residents
of
Ottawa
that
you
are
committed
to
a
constant
escalation
of
enforcement
to
put
this
city
back
in
the
hands
of
its
residents.
Are
you
as
reticent,
as
you
were
a
week
ago,
to
enforce
the
law?
Is
this
a
commitment
that
we
can
expect
you
to
keep.
B
Sir,
thank
you
very
much
and
I
share
your
passion
and,
like
you,
deeply
moved
by
the
expression
of
Council,
McKinney
and
others.
Who've
been
extremely
eloquent
and
I
can
obviously
see
it
in
in
your
own
state
right
now
how
much
this
means
to
you.
So
thank
you
for
that,
and
it
takes
a
lot
of
Courage
as
any
public
official
to
to
open
open
their
emotions
on
a
public
stage
like
this
and
I
business.
So
thank
you.
It's
it's
powerful,
even
without
the
words,
but
let
me
be
clear.
B
B
B
So
I
know
you
want
a
simple
answer
to
a
very
straightforward
question:
I
cannot
give
you
that
what
I
can
give
you
is
what
you'd
essentially
asked
me
am
I
fully
and
100
committed.
Is
the
service
fully
and
100
committed
to
resolving
this
situation
safely
and
as
quickly
as
possible
as
lawfully
as
possible?
N
We
expect
to
see
an
escalation
in
enforcement
ticketing,
the
kinds
of
operations
that
we
saw
last
night
at
Coventry,
the
kinds
of
operations
we
saw
yesterday
at
Confederation
Park.
What
is
your
assessment
of
the
of
the
the
level
of
risk
and
volatility
that
is
in
your
mind
as
you
contemplate
further
actions
of
this
nature.
N
We
we
saw
yesterday
and-
and
it
was
amazing,
to
watch
in
real
time
in
my
inbox-
the
the
hope
that
the
operation
to
remove
the
shack
and
to
clear
Confederation
part
and
to
go
into
Coventry
and
to
remove
the
fuel
and
to
to
begin
issuing
tickets
in
their
hundreds.
That
was
new
for
residents
it.
We
we
took
some
Hope
from
that
and
the
the
tone
of
the
the
you
know.
Hundreds
of
emails
that
are
coming
in
was
immediately
changed.
B
Sure
absolutely
thank
you.
You
validated
what
we
announced
on
Friday
the
efforts
that
we
put
into
resource
once
we
were
able
to
get
the
extra
resources
that
myself,
Steve,
kanalakis
and
others
have
been
negotiating.
That's
the
impact
when
we
can
free
up
resources
from
the
demonstration
we
can
go
in
numbers
aggressively
after
those
highest
risk
individuals
and
highest
risk
areas.
We
still
don't
have
enough
to
cover
all
the
areas
that
the
previous
speaker
talked
about.
That's
our
challenge
right
now,
where
we
can
free
up
resources,
we
can
make
immediate
impact
that
is
felt
immediately.
B
We
had
that
response.
I
won't
speak
for
Steve
kanilakis,
but
literally
with
our
provincial,
our
provincial
and
federal
counterparts
at
11
o'clock
this
morning,
several
of
the
Deputy
ministers
on
the
call
who
live
in
the
city
and
Transit
through
the
downtown
core
and
have
constituents
areas
in
that
said
the
same
thing.
We
felt
the
power
of
this
weekend's
operations.
We
can
see
the
safety
better,
we
can
feel
it.
We
have
greater
range
of
movement,
we're
able
to
do
more
normal
things.
Thank
you
for
what
you're
doing
we
need
to
do
more.
B
N
Frustration,
we
feel
is
you've
heard
a
lot
today
of
you
know
social
image,
pictures
and
mainstream
media
reporting
on
on
the
the
steps
back,
the
gas
that
continues
to
make
its
way
into
the
core
and
we're
worried
we're
worried
that
enforcement
is,
is
going
to
be
a
real
roller
coaster,
with
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
steps
backwards
and
we're
hoping
to
see
continuous
momentum.
I
have
just
one
other
question
for
you
on
the
operational
side.
Sorry.
B
Sir
I
wouldn't
want
to
interrupt,
but
but
I
do
want
to
create
some
frame
of
expectations.
This
has
been
one
of
those
Journeys
where
it's
two
steps
forward.
One
step
back
a
step,
sideways
I've
describe
the
nature
of
this.
It
is
not
a
single
linear
group
of
risks
that
we
knock
off
in
sequence
and
then
we
get
closer
and
closer
to
a
defined
end
state.
It
hasn't
been
that
way
from
the
beginning.
B
I
have
to
tell
you
I've
heard
everything
from
you
know.
Several
hours
today
had
the
ability
to
maintain
some
level
of
power
for
up
to
six
months.
I
don't
have
a
a
d
license:
I've,
never
driven
a
truck
and
I,
don't
know
what
what
other
new
technology
exists
under
the
hood
these
days
in
these
vehicles,
but
we're
doing
our
best
to
cut
off
the
fuel.
The
funds
and
any
other
supports,
that'll
enable
this
unlawful
demonstration
to
continue
and
we're
trying
to
get
help
from
all
three
levels
of
government
to
do
so.
N
We
need
you
to
do
that.
Mr
canalaco,
Sir,
Mr
White.
There
has
been
a
lot
of
discussion
about
leveraging
the
insurance.
The
truckers
have.
Is
that
something
that
the
city
can
play
an
important
role
in
pursuing,
and
if
so,
do
you
need
any
direction
from
us
to
do
so.
K
Mr
Mayor
from
from
the
legal
standpoint,
the
the
insurance
and
appreciating
that
that
we
don't
know
certainly
Legal
Services,
doesn't
know
as
to
you
know
whether
these
vehicles
are
insured
in
Ontario
other
jurisdictions,
South
of
the
Border.
We
don't
have
access
to
that
information.
We
don't
know
what
the
terms
of
their
insurance
would
be
normally
speaking.
That
is
something
that
would
be
within
the
jurisdiction
of
the
province
either
under
the
the
commercial
vehicle
operator
regulations
or,
in
that
regard
bluntly
I.
G
Mr
Mayor,
the
these
are
part
of
the
conversation
Chief
slowly
and
I've
been
having
with
our
federal
provincial
counterparts.
That
is
something
that
is
actively
being
looked
at.
It
is
within
it's
not
even
Federal
jurisdiction,
because
the
trucks
are
provincially
licensed
and
insured,
and
so
the
Ministry
of
Transportation
of
Ontario
would
be
looking
into
that
to
see
what
regulations
and
tools
do
they
have
to
have
an
impact
on
their
insurance
and
on
their
licenses
to
operate
commercial
vehicles.
So
that
is
actively
happening
and
we'll
report
back.
C
You
yeah
and
I
I
also
excuse
me:
counselor,
communicated
with
Premier
Ford
the
same
issue
of
MTO
inspectors
being
involved
in
t
licensing
if
that's
an
option,
so
he
said
he'd
look
into
that
just
a
few
hours
ago.
Thank
you,
councilor
counselor,
just
to
remind
people
we'll
we'll
deal
with
counselor,
Fleury
and
King's
comments
and
questions,
then
we'll
have
a
recess
so
that
the
chief
and
his
legal
counsel
can
review
the
court
injunction
and
then
we'll
come
back
so
councilor
Fleury.
The
floor
is
yours.
J
Yes,
Mr
Matt
and
thank
you
colleagues
for
for
for
your
support.
The
Motions
are
very
helpful
today
and,
and
obviously
I
couldn't
have
said
it
better
than
than
what
my
my
friend
and
colleague,
councilor
McKinney,
said
a
few
minutes
ago.
I
do
have
questions
and
I'll
make
a
statement
later.
J
My
first
question
is
I
guess
to
Kim
and
or
Steve
K,
and
it
relates
to
bylaw
services,
so
we're
I'm
following
what's
hap,
what's
happened
in
the
weekend
in
the
city
of
Toronto
and
city
of
Quebec
and
they
are
issuing
fines
by
sending
it
to
the
offenders
home
address
so
that
they
don't
risk
any
any
enforcement
issues
is
that
are
we
doing
that
here
in
Ottawa?
Currently.
I
Yeah,
thank
you.
Mr
Mayor,
no
counselor
we're
not
currently
doing
that,
but
we
are
gathering
evidence
so
that
the
charges
could
be
laid
later
and
we're
working
on
that
with
and
through
police
as
well.
I
Have
to
I'd
have
to
ask
Roger
Chapman,
but
it's
my
understanding
that
at
this
point
in
time
we
we
have
our
resources
attached
to
the
police
and
we're
trying
to
do
as
much
on
scene
as
we
possibly
can,
and
any
follow-up
investigations
will
lead
to
to
those
types
of
charges.
We
still
have
to
investigate
and
gather
the
appropriate
evidence
just
because
a
vehicle
is
there
and
has
a
tag
on
it
doesn't
mean
that
it's
actually
the
owner
that
drove
it
there.
I
So
there's
there's
a
little
bit
more
work
than
just
you
know.
Sending
information
out
to
residents.
J
Okay
I
like
Clarity,
because
it
seemed
to
work
effectively
in
the
city
of
of
Quebec
over
the
weekend
and
minimizes
the
risk
to
enforcement,
but
also
maximizes
the
financial
penalty
on
the
same
theme
of
bylaw,
Services,
I,
I'm
hearing
that
bylaw
is
on
the
ground
even
outside
of
the
Red
Zone
and
at
the
emergency.
J
Operation
Center
is
telling
officers
not
to
enforce
we've,
had
a
number
of
of
incidents
of
cars
parked
anywhere
and
everywhere,
or
trucks
parked
anywhere
and
everywhere,
on
sidewalks
outside
of
the
Red
Zone,
and
my
understanding
is
that
the
EOC
As
Told
officers,
who
were
at
site
not
to
take
it
because
I
understand.
Why
that's
the
case?
Thank.
I
You
Mr,
Mara
and
counselor
I
could
I
could
let
you
know
that
all
of
our
activities
right
now,
if
there's
a
potential
of
it
being
related
to
the
protest,
go
through
the
ncrcc
and
and
a
decision
is
made
whether
to
proceed
or
not.
I
know
that
there
are
very,
there
are
several
Hot
Spot
areas
that,
while
they
may
not
be
in
the
Red
Zone
they're
a
concern
based
on
the
individuals
that
are
in
those
spots
and
and
their
potential
criminal
pass
and
and
they're.
I
You
know
working
together
and
as
a
result
of
that
it
poses
a
threat
to
our
officers.
So
we
coordinate
our
response
through
the
ncrcc
to
make
sure
that
we're
not
putting
our
officers
at
any
risk.
J
We
need
to
build
confidence.
We
need
to
send
those
tickets
to
their
home
address
on
our
legal
team.
David
I
I'm,
not
a
lawyer,
I've,
not
studied
law,
but
a
a
lawyer
who
works
with
the
provincial
government
not
officially,
but
does
does
follow.
All
the
time
sent
me
some
documents
in
relation
to
the
municipality
of
Toronto
and
specifically
the
tools
they
used
on
occupy
Toronto
and
even
if
I
don't
have
an
opinion
about
the
Occupy
Toronto
case.
J
K
Mr
Mayor
certainly
happy
to
review
any
any
material
that
you're
you're
in
receipt
of,
certainly
my
office
and
my
team
review
all
the
law
with
respect
as
it
evolves
that
affects
the
municipality.
So
you
know
in
the
context
of
being
prepared,
for
example,
for
an
injunction
anything
that
is
out
there.
That
is
helpful.
We
will
have
reviewed
and
if
it's
unhelpful,
then
we
look
to
distinguish
it.
So
if
you
want
to
send
me
that
I'm
happy
to
pass
it
along
to
the
rest
of
my
team.
J
I
will
yeah
certainly
I
will
I'm
I'm
not
a
again
I'm,
not
a
legal
mind,
but
there
seems
to
be
a
number
of
decisions
by
by
the
Chief
Justice
there,
the
justice
that
I'm
not
sure
why
they
can't
be
used
for
for
the
same
purposes
David
in
the.
In
the
note
you
send
an
hour
before
we
started
Council,
there's
a
number
of
comments
that
you,
you
seem
to
repeat
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
I
fully
capture
them
and
understand
them.
J
On
paragraph
six,
paragraph
two
of
Page
Six
policing
authorities
have
not
advised
us
of
any
Gap
in
their
existing
enforcement
powers.
Are
you
saying
that
all
the
law?
The
law
is
not
the
problem
here,
but
our
ability
to
respond
and
I'll
be
I'll,
be
turning
to
the
chief
on
those
questions
after
but
I
want
to
understand
that
you're
saying
that
the
current
law
and
environment
of
law
is
is
in
place
and
allows
us
to
bring
this
to
an
end.
K
Mr
Mayor
I,
don't
know
if
I
could,
if
I
could
be
so
bold
as
to
say
that
that
you
know
the
existing
law
is
enough
to
bring
it
to
an
end.
That
said,
as
you've
heard
from
the
chief,
this
tends
to
be
a
resource
issue.
K
There
are
authorities
that
exist
under
the
criminal
code.
There
are
authorities
that
exist
under
provincial
statutes.
There
are
authorities
that
exist
under
Municipal
bylaws
that
can
be
leveraged
in
their
totality
as
a
means
of
of
safely
bringing
this
to
an
end.
Certainly,
we
continue
to
work
with
with
our
our
colleagues
with
the
Ottawa
Police
to
identify
if
there
is
a
tool
that
they
believe
that
they
could
deploy
from
a
legal
tool.
In
that
sense,
that
would
assist
them
to
address
this.
K
Then
those
are
the
things
that
that,
to
the
extent
that
they
fall
within
our
our
Authority
and
our
jurisdiction,
that
we
are
there
to
support
them
with.
So
when
I,
when
I
say
that
you
know
no
gaps
have
been
identified
again,
that's
that's
not
an
issue
of
resourcing.
That's
a
question
of
what
legal
authorities
exist.
K
Appreciating
that
is
always
in
the
discretion
of
of
police,
as
it
quite
rightly
is
as
to
you
know
when
to
when
to
enforce
how
to
enforce,
as
you
heard
from
the
the
federal
ministers
earlier
today,
those
are
those
are
the
responsibilities
of
policing
the
system
that
we
have
in
Canada
and
obviously
in
Ontario,
and
the
City
of
Ottawa
is
that
those
those
directions
do
not
are
not
provided
by
elected
officials,
and
that's
why
my
office
doesn't
advise
the
police,
for
example,
in
terms
of
their
enforcement
power.
J
Okay,
the
last
one
before
I
turn
to
a
few
questions
to
the
chief
or
maybe
this
one
is
in
relation
to
both
David
and
chief,
could
an
injunction
let
Ops
and
authorities
seize
and
drive
the
trucks
away.
We
keep
hearing
of
resourcing
issues
relating
to
tow
trucks
vehicles,
as,
as
you
have
you
considered,
an
injection
in
that
context,.
K
I
can
I
can
go
first
on
that
this
one
of
the
the
challenges
that
any
party
has
particularly
a
public
agency
in
seeking
an
injunction
is
ensuring
that
it
is
ultimately
enforceable,
and
it
is
not
so
broad
that
the
court
is
actually
inclined
to
give
it
with
respect
to
the
enforcement
of
an
injunction.
Generally
speaking,
that
is
a
that's
a
still
a
matter
and
it's
a
contempt
issue
I.
K
It
would
be
an
extraordinary
remedy
to
have
at
first
instance,
an
injunction
that
would
allow,
for
example,
just
the
the
outright
seizure
of
of
a
vehicle
under
the
terms
of
that
injunction.
Whether
there
might
be
other
legal
authorities
that
already
exist,
I
would
defer
the
chief
in
that
regard,
but
that
is
something
that
obviously
we
would
explore.
K
C
J
Chief,
thank
you.
I
I
know,
you've
been
on
the
hot
seat
and
appreciate
you're,
trying
to
get
clarity
and
and
really-
and
you
must
have
so
much
information
but
I
have
four
rapid
fire
and
one
last
question
here
so
I'll
I'll
pose
the
four
and,
if
you
can
answer
for
residents,
businesses
in
reflection
of
what
many
of
my
colleagues
have
been
asking
when
Chief,
when
will
this
occupation
end
Chief?
What
does
an
occupation?
When
does
an
occupation
become
illegal
and
what
does
that
mean
Chief?
J
B
I
I'm
not
going
to
give
you
an
answer
as
to
when
anything
will
end.
I
can't
give
you
that
answer.
So
that's
my
answer
and
I've
said
that
repeatedly,
an
occupation
by
definition
is
not
illegal.
It's
the
act
of
individuals
that
make
it
illegal.
B
There
is
law
within
the
federal
statutes
that
create
the
context
around
which
you
can
make
a
case
for
a
criminal
Enterprise,
traditional
organized
crime,
motorcycle
gangs,
street
gangs,
there's
legislation
and
jurisprudence
and
common
law
that
will
will
define
those
as
group
or
singular
activities
and
we're
looking
at
all
that
for
our
consultations
with
our
crowns,
we
have
been
doing
for
the
last
two
weeks
and
where
we
can
lay
charges
in
those
areas,
we
will
in
fact
Advance
some
of
our
investigations
and
led
to
some
of
the
election
charges
we
really
make.
B
So
we
are
looking
at
the
fullest
extent
of
the
law
as
it
relates
to
any
illegal
activity.
Municipal,
provincial
and
federal,
and
we've
made
a
request
to
the
mayor.
Looking
to
extend
those
Powers
extend
the
fines
and
extend
the
consequences
we've
heard
from
Steve
Cadillac
is
that
we're
in
Daily
Communications
the
two
levels
of
government
to
look
for
additional
legal
tools
to
apply
to
bring
these
demonstrations.
These
unlawful,
unsafe
acts
within
the
demonstrations
too,
is
an
end
as
quickly
as
possible
as
lawfully
as
possible.
J
Okay
and
the
last
question
for
me:
Mr
Mayor,
that's
to
you
again:
Mr
Mr
Chief,
the
the
city
of
Quebec,
City
and
city
of
Toronto
over
the
weekend,
appear
to
have
different
legal
readings
as
it's
specific
as
it
specifies
to
truck
movement
and
control
of
that.
J
Is
that
new
information
to
you
or
or
do
you
still
stand
by
or
by
by
the
fact
that
we
allowed
trucks
to
move
rightful
like
right
into
anywhere
in
the
core
and
find
ourselves
in
the
position
we're
in
today?
If
you
don't
have
the
answer,
that's
fine.
B
The
answer
counselor,
thank
you.
I
was
less
I've,
been
less
well-briefed
on
the
Quebec
circumstances,
more.
B
More
peace,
Toronto
did
what
we
did
this
weekend.
They
blocked
roads
significantly.
They
learned
and
observed
what
happened
in
Coots
Alberta
here
in
in
Ontario
in
Winnipeg
Manitoba,
and
they
made
adjustments
based
on
what
the
operational
successes
and
weaknesses
were.
We
learned
and
we
did
the
same
thing
Toronto
did
we
put
up
a
lot
more
blockages,
a
lot
more
Highway
off
ramps,
a
lot
more
bridge
closures
than
we
did
and
we
had
similar
success
in
reducing
the
impact
this
weekend
last
weekend,
I
put
air
quotes
in
success.
B
I
realized
when
I
say
that
that
triggers
a
number
of
things
success
can
be
measured
in
a
number
of
realms.
For
me,
it's
been
a
relatively
narrow
one,
but
I
accept
what
has
been
described
by
other
counselors,
far
more
eloquent
than
I
have
today
that
we
have
to
be
careful
how
we
define
success.
So
with
that
context,
the
Toronto
police
and
their
operations
of
the
city
allowed
trucks
to
come
right
into
the
heart
of
the
downtown
they
closed.
B
Fourth,
they
closed
two
East-West
points,
Wellesley
and
College,
and
they
closed
a
chunk
of
a
north-south
around
University
Avenue
and
Queen's
Park
Circle
itself.
They
did
not
close
the
entire
city,
they
did
not
close
the
entire
downtown
core.
They
closed
certain
streets.
We
actually
closed
way
more
streets
here
in
Ottawa
than
Toronto
did
they
had
Deputy
Minister
mayor
Di
Tomaso
on
a
call
two
days
ago
described
the
effectiveness
of
using
heavy
tow
trucks
to
deter
trucks
from
the
Toronto
demonstration.
B
He
said
and
I
quote,
they
brought
out
one
heavy
tow
truck
and
there
were
six
trucks
parked
and
those
six
trucks
left.
We
had
a
thousand
trucks
in
the
city
on
Saturday
we
had
3
000
trucks
in
the
city
on
the
previous
Saturday.
The
scale
of
operations
is
not
even
comparable.
That
would
be
comparing
an
orange
to
the
sun
in
terms
of
the
size
of
what
we
were
dealing
with
here
this
past
weekend
and
the
previous
weekend.
I
am
extremely
proud
of
the
success
that
the
Toronto
police
had
in
their
operation.
C
So,
colleagues,
we're
going
to
take
a
recess
until
5
25,
the
chief
and
I
and
Steve
K,
have
a
zoom
call
with
Federal
and
provincial
ministers
right
now,
so
he
needs
the
time
to
get
onto
that
call
and
then
have
has
to
to
deal
with
the
injunction
so
we'll
meet
back
again
at
5
25
and
we'll
go
back
to
counselor,
King
and
counselor
me
in
and
then
we'll
go
to
the
Motions
one
by
one,
so
we'll
recess,
as
I
mentioned,
till
between
5
25
and
5
30..
Thank
you.
Merci.
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
C
Okay,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
we're
reconnecting
I'm
just
checking
on
the
status
of
who
is
going
to
represent
the
Ottawa
Police
Service,
because
the
chief
I
believe
had
to
go
on
to
another
briefing,
and
so
maybe
we
can
ask
they
were
supposed
to
be
at
least
one
representative
Ottawa
Police
Service.
Here,
oh.
C
Are
okay?
Thank
you
thanks,
Steve
thanks,
Deputy,
okay.
So
just
to
recap,
we
have
two
more
speakers
to
ask
questions
or
give
comments
and
then
we're
going
to
start
the
Motions
and
we'll
go
one
by
one
on
those
and
vote
on
them.
One
at
a
time.
Counselor
King,
please
floor
is
yours.
Thank.
M
You,
your
worship,
this
unlawful
occupation,
has
affected
all
quarters
of
the
city,
including
my
ward.
I
know
that
I,
along
with
my
community,
are
pleased
that
the
police
service
has
taken
action
and
has
been
dismantling
illegal,
encampments
and
staging
areas.
M
Leave
communities
need
the
illegal
occupation
to
vacate
our
roads
parks
and
also
our
Transit
System,
to
draw
from
counselor
gowers
questions
on
Transit
and
councilor
McKinney's
observations
about
people
being
harassed
on
Transit.
Can
we
get
a
sense
from
staff
both
from
the
city
and
from
police
concerning
house
security
and
enforcement
is
being
addressed
on
our
transit
system
to
keep
Riders
safe
to
we've,
heard
the
stories
about
harassment
and
obviously
some
of
our
most
vulnerable
residents
used
transit
system,
because
often
they
don't
have
a
choice.
M
So
we
want
I
want
to
just
some
insight
as
to
what
we're
doing
in
terms
of
security
and
enforcement.
Around
Transit
yeah.
P
Thank
you,
councilor
King
I
can
answer
this.
If
you
don't
mind,
I
will
switch
in
French
so
be
ready.
Please.
D
D
D
M
Thank
you
for
that.
I
also
wanted
to
know,
though,
from
your
assessment
whether
there
is
a
need
for
more
security
and
if
there
is
because
we've
heard
anecdotal
stories
about
people
being
attacked
in
the
environs
of
of
the
transit
stations
and
and
when
they're
using
Transit.
M
P
D
D
M
You
well
thank
you
for
that.
I
think
that
is
a
concern,
so
I
I
hope
that
we
continue
to
monitor
the
security
situation
on
Transit
because
we're
hearing
that
emerge
as
a
major
issue.
Obviously
there's
challenges
on
our
streets,
but
there's
also
challenges
in
our
transit
system
as
well,
and
we
need
to
ensure
that
those
are
addressed.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Mr
Mayor.
H
Your
worship
yeah
well
I'm,
I'm,
looking
for
it.
I
just
have
to
pull
it
up
here.
I
have
it
can
I
just
say
something
briefly
before
I
introduce
it
yep.
H
Just
actually
one
question
has
to
do
with
the
injunction
the
noise
injunction.
You
see
all
over
Twitter
that
people
are
being
urged
not
to
respect
the
injunction
and
to
continue
tooting
like
blowing
horns
again
tonight,
there's
nothing
to
suggest
that
they
will
adhere
to
it,
except
that
you
know
when
we
get
an
injunction
I
think
it's
extremely
important
that
we
enforce
that
injunction
as
as
stiffly
and
as
toughly
as
we
possibly
can.
Otherwise
it's
it's
me.
H
It's
useless
to
even
go
that
route,
so
I
would
hope
that
the
police
tonight
are
prepared
to
clamp
down
really
hard
on.
Anyone
who
you
know
violates
that
injunction
also
I
would
I
would
respectfully
suggest
that
bylaw
is
being
way
too
pussy-footed
around
the
trucking,
the
trucks
that
are
downtown
waiting
to
start
investigating
who
owns
the
trucks?
That's
just
that
you're
just
wasting
time.
Councilor
Fleury
suggested
that
we
ticket
anyway
I
think
we
go
ahead.
H
We
take
it
anyway,
you
send
those
tickets
one
a
day
for
a
maximum
amount
to
the
owner
of
that
transport
truck.
Don't
waste
time.
Don't
you
know,
let's,
let's
not
be
as
nice
as
you
want,
as
we
obviously
have
been,
we've
got
to
do
what's
necessary
and
that's
just
ticket
away
ticket
send
it
by
mail.
You
don't
have
any
confrontation
with
those
with
the
truckers
who
are
causing
all
the
trouble
and
only
that
get
the
license
plates
of
all
those
trucks
that
are
running
through
the
neighborhoods
and
do
the
same.
H
Damn
thing:
okay,
here's
my
motion-
and
this
is
seconded
by
counselor
McKinney
by
the
way,
whereas
Ottawa
is
the
capital
city
of
Canada
and
as
such,
should
have
the
necessary
legislative
powers
and
funding
to
ensure
the
peace
and
security
of
the
city
of
Ottawa
and
whereas
in
1988
the
federal
emergencies
Act
was
passed
into
law,
whereas
the
emergencies
act
sets
up
procedures
by
which
emergencies
and
public
order
threats
are
present,
and
whereas
the
governor
and
Council
that
could
be
the
a
member
of
the
of
the
provincial
legislature,
someone
with
the
city
would
be
empowered
to
make
orders
and
regulations
concerning
the
threat
following
the
position.
H
We
this
is
this
piece
of
legislation
was
passed
specifically
for
an
an
event
like
this,
so
I
think
that
we
have
to
explore
if
this
would
give
us
the
tools
and
it
would
get
the
federal
government
to
come
on
board
I'd
also
like
to
ask
if
we
have
given
the
protesters
a
deadline,
a
firm
deadline,
that
they
must
be
leaving
the
city
by
noon,
Tuesday
or
six
o'clock
on
Wednesday
or
something's
going
to
happen,
we
could
fill
the
Armory
building
next
to
City
Hall
with
Riot
with
geared
up
Riot
police.
H
Just
have
them
sit
there,
they
don't
have
to
do
anything,
it's
maybe
the
suggestion
of
a
threat,
which
is
what
Premier
Lego
has
been
doing.
That
actually
gets
something
working.
It
gets
something
going
give
them
a
deadline,
see
who
leaves
and
the
people
who
don't
leave,
do
something
I'm
I'm
I'm,
clearly
frustrated
along
with
everybody,
but
I.
Think
the
time
for
for
being
nice
has
passed.
H
I'll
leave
it
there,
but
I
I
would
I
would
clearly
suggest
that
we
have
to
start
taking
some
serious
measures
in
into
consideration
and
the
emergencies
act
that
currently
exists
within
the
federal
government
is
one
of
the
roots
and
one
of
the
tools
that
we
should
examine,
so
I'll
leave
it
there.
Thank
you.
C
Thank
you,
councilor
councilor,
Clute,
shapely,.
G
Yeah,
thank
you
just
your
Indulgence
to
get
back
on
the
list
with
just
one
short
follow-up
question.
Given
that
we're
in
Committee
of
the
whole
is
that
is
that
okay,
I,
have
a
question:
go
ahead:
okay,
thank
you,
and
so
Mr
Cadillac
is
the
stadium
close
to
my
ward,
councilor
Kings
ward
has
been
used
as
a
lightning
rod,
for
you
know
angering
my
community
in
Eastway
Gardens,
as
it
appears
to
be
serving
as
a
staging
ground
for
for
continuing
protests.
G
Can
you
tell
us
Titans
organization,
the
baseball
team
involved
it
all
in
the
decision
to
allow
demonstrators
to
use
to
use
that
parking
lot
and,
if
not
them,
who?
How
did
that?
How
is
that
permission
given
Mr
kanaleckis?
Well,
they
they
and
I,
know
I've
seen.
Thank
you.
Mr
Mayor
to
the
counselor
yeah
I've,
seen
a
lot
of
commentary
about
the
Titans
and
the
Titans
receiving
a
lot
of
negative
feedback
from
residents.
G
People
talking
about
not
buying
tickets
when
they
start
the
season
and
criticizing
them,
for
you
know
believing
that
they
are
somehow
participating
and
endorsing
the
the
people
who
have
taken
possession
of
their
parking
lot.
G
In
fact,
the
payments
weren't
involved
when
the
Convoy
was
coming
into
Ottawa,
our
general
manager
of
parks
and
parks,
recreation,
culture
facilities,
Dan
shenier,
agreed
to
allow
the
parking
lot
to
be
used
as
a
temporary
parking
to
to
basically
relieve
the
downtown
core
of
the
congestion,
because
we
had
so
many
trucks
coming
in
what
no
one
anticipated
was
that
they
were
going
to
stay
there.
I
mean
that
goes
back
to
the
premise
of
whether
they're
going
to
leave
out
after
the
weekend
or
not
so
then
they
took
over
that
area.
G
Police
went
in
last
night
and
took
the
fuel
but
they're
still
there,
and
the
Titans
now
are
in
the
unenviable
position
of
having
an
encampment
on
their
property
of
trucks
that
can't
be
moved.
So
I
want
to
be
clear
to
the
public
and
to
you
that
the
Titans
have
in
no
way
endorsed
or
supported,
what's
happening
here
and
have
not
provided
any
facilities
or
resources
to
support
the
protesters.
They
are
effectively
victims
of
of
what's
happening
in
the
city
of
Ottawa.
Right
now,
thank
you,
Mr
kanalakis.
G
Yes,
they
and
other
entertainment
and
restaurant
businesses
in
the
core,
and
here
postcovid
and
post
this
occupation,
we'll
need
all
of
our
support.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
that.
C
Steve
slowly
has
his
hand
up
she's
slowly.
B
Mayor
I
apologies,
I
I,
now
have
to
go
to
another
Duty
myself.
I've
got
deputy
chief
Steve
Bell
Who
Remain
here
as
a
representative
for
the
executive
and
and
answer
questions.
I'll
join
back
as
soon
as
I
can
I
do
want
to
just
follow
up
on
one
thing
earlier
on
the
counselor
attorney
asked
about
it
finally
been
briefed
Up
in
Upland
I
think
there's
been
some
emails
back
and
forth,
but
the
supposed
tweet
that
was
in
sympathy
with
the
protesters.
B
That
was
a
tweet
that
we
sent
out
to
thank
the
Algonquin
initial
Elders,
who
came
in
to
help
to
successfully
and
peacefully
negotiate,
negotiate
the
end
of
the
Confederation
Park
encampments.
So
we
were
thanking
our
indigenous
Elders
who
supported
that
success,
not
expressing
sympathy
for
any
element
of
the
of
the
protest
And
demonstrators
to
clarify
that.
B
Secondly,
while
I
was
on
this
call,
deputy
chief
Bell
represented
me
on
a
call
with
all
the
Ontario
Association
of
chiefs
of
police,
including
police
chief
Tim,
Raymond
I
will
leave
it
to
Steve
to
expand
on
this.
But
my
understanding
is
that
Jim
Raymer,
who
I've
worked
with
for
over
30
years,
said
explicitly.
The
reason
for
their
success
in
Toronto
was
based
on
learning
from
what
took
place
in
Ottawa
and
Winnipeg
and
Coos
that
there
is
no
way
they
would
have
been
able
to
do
their
operations.
Have
their
tow
trucks
ready.
B
This
is
the
factor
that
we're
seeing
nobody
has
the
plan.
Nobody
has
a
Magic
Bullet
for
all
this
we're
all
learning
in
real
time.
We
are
working
together
as
much
as
possible
and
because
of
that,
we're
starting
to
have
more
consistent
success
here
and
in
other
jurisdictions
and
I
think
it's
disingenuous,
quite
frankly
to
try
to
compare
and
set
against
police
services
who
should
be
working
as
partners
as
we
actually
have
been
and
I'd
like
to
just
put
that
as
the
context
for
this
Council
to
consider
with
that
mayor.
C
Yeah
and
chief,
that
was
the
sentiment
I
received
from
the
big
city
mayor's
caucus.
They
were
meeting
today
as
well
through
fcm,
and
you
know
we.
Unfortunately,
we
we
were
the
first
ones
to
be
attacked
in
this
way
and
you
know
Lessons
Learned
to
the
other
jurisdictions,
but
they
were
not
gloating
about
it.
They
were
very
supportive
and
want
to
send
police
officers
to
help
us.
So
thank
you
for
that.
Okay,
so
we
have
a
number
of
motions.
The
first
one
is
counselor
dudas
seconded
by
counselor
King.
C
L
What
I'm
in
regards
to
you
know
having
very
specific
items
in
some
of
the
motions
I
have
to
say
this
is
a
very
fluid
situation.
The
chief
has
spoken
to
that
our
city
staff
know
this
on
the
ground.
We
don't
know
if
what
we
write
in
a
letter
today
or
what
we
ask
today
is
going
to
make
a
difference
tomorrow
or
if
it's
going
to
make
a
difference.
L
Maybe
they'll
need
some
other
kind
of
support
So
to
the
point
about
being
you
know,
having
specifics
in
the
Motions
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
are
not
hamstringing
our
police.
Nor
are
we
doing
that
to
our
city
services
that
they
have
our
support,
going
forward
to
enter
into
conversations
and
negotiations
with
the
province
with
the
federal
government
to
ensure
that
we
get
what
we
need
to
end
this
occupation
of
our
city.
I
Thank
you,
Mr
marrow
I'm,
absolutely
supportive
of
the
sentiment
and
intent
of
the
of
the
most.
In
my
my
question,
or
my
concern
was,
was
whether
or
not
this
gives
Mr
canalakis
and
the
and
the
police
services
and
yourself,
frankly,
Mr
Marion
in
your
various
discussions
with
the
with
the
with
your
federal
counterparts,
whether
this
emotion
gives
you
enough
Direction,
so
that
you
don't
have
to
keep
coming
back
to
council
to
get
to
get
further
clarification
of
what's
needed
or
what's
necessary,
I,
I,
I,
think
and
I
I
would
expect.
I
The
counselor
dudas
is
of
the
same
mind
that
wants
to
send
everybody
off.
That
needs
to
have
the
tools
in
the
toolbox
to
be
able
to
carry
on
get
their
job
done
and
move
things
quickly.
So
that's
my
only
concern
so
I
wouldn't
mind,
hearing
from
from
the
city,
manager
and
and
police
services
that
they're
satisfied
that
they
get.
This
gives
them
the
ability
to
go
off,
get
the
job
done
and
and
access
the
things
that
they
need
to
access
without
again
having
to
keep
coming
back
to
council.
G
C
Yeah,
maybe
the
last
paragraph,
which
is
there
for
being
resolved.
D
Sorry,
we
just
have
to
flip
back
to
that
motion.
Mr
Mayor
from
Council
Judah
seconded
by
counselor
King.
C
My
view
is:
this
is
perfectly
in
order,
and
it's
expressing
the
desire
of
counsel
that
we
need
those
two
other
orders
of
government
to
move
quickly
with
both
financial
resources
and
human
resources.
Steve
K.
G
Yeah
I
have
no
issue
with
the
motion,
as
it
is
I
think
it
gives
us
lots
of
leeway
we're
having
those
discussions
now,
and
this
further
supports
our
efforts.
So
thank
you.
C
Okay,
counselor
dude
asked,
if
you
don't
add
anything
else
or
can
we
call
for
a
vote.
C
Okay,
carried
Kerry.
C
Okay,
our
next
one
is
request
for
support
to
Ottawa
business.
It's
been
a
revision
councilor
dudas
seconded
by
counselor,
harder,
councilor
dudas.
If
you
want
to
introduce,
therefore
be
it
resolved
and
then
tell
us
what
the
change
was
from
the
original
motion.
Please
certainly.
L
This
really
speaks
to
the
impact
on
our
businesses
and
once
again,
the
the
need
that
they
will
have
to
to
try
to
recover
from
the
circumstance
it's
going
to
take
them
a
very
long
time
to
get
over
this,
and
they
had
high
hopes
of
reopening
last
Monday
after
the
the
lockdown
had
been
lifted.
So
the
only
change
that
this
includes
and
once
again
I.
Thank
you
councilor
Fleury
for
highlighting
this
is
is
that
it
includes
specifically
focused
on
supporting
Ottawa
businesses,
which
was
originally
there.
C
Okay
on
the
motion:
oops
sorry,
councilor,
Brockington.
F
One
very
brief
point,
though
mayor
thank
you.
Counselor
for
removing
this
I
will
support
it,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day,
this
goes
back
to
the
taxpayers,
helping
businesses
for
losses
and,
at
the
end
of
the
day,
that
may
be
a
short-term
fix,
but
the
organizers
need
to
be
held
accountable
for
the
impacts
that
they've
had
on
on
the
people
and
businesses
of
the
city.
F
F
Yes,
your
Worship
Is
there
going
to
be
any
oversight
to
this
to
be
clear
as
to
which
businesses
were
actually
closed
as.
K
A
result
of
this,
as
opposed
to
result
of
the
lockdowns
Etc
and
which
ones
actually
stayed
open.
C
Well,
my
understanding
is
that
it's
similar
to
what
the
provincial
and
federal
programs
now
that
this
would
be
application
based
and
they
would
have
to
sign
a
waiver
and
and
be
subject
to
an
audit
if
they're
putting
misleading
information
down.
Is
that
your
understanding,
councilor
dude
asks
is
the
Mover.
C
It
would
be
I
I
raised
the
point,
counselor
shirelli,
that
Serb
was
helpful
and
it
was
extended
when
there
was
a
government
imposed
lockdown.
C
My
argument
is
we're
now
in
another
lockdown
which
is
protester
imposed,
and
so
I
spoke
with
both
Federal
and
provincial
ministers
about
the
fact
that
they
have
to
be
flexible
because
our
stores
and
our
shops
shut
down
not
of
their
own
will
or
by
a
government
decree,
but
because
of
the
safety
and
endangerment
of
customers
and
employees
and
owners
of
these
small
businesses
and
I
received
a
sympathetic
hearing
because
they
recognize
for
all
intense
purposes.
These
folks
are
locked
down.
C
Next
is
from
counselor
dude
asks
as
well
saying
by
councilor
Tierney
councilor
dudas,
if
you'd
like
to
introduce
yes.
L
Thank
you,
I
I
did
read
it
earlier.
I
will
go
over
it
again.
Once
again,
we
have
heard
of
the
impacts
of
this
occupy
occupation
on
our
social
services
downtown,
and
they
are
struggling
to
provide
the
services
that
we
desperately
need
to
see.
Our
vulnerable
residents
receive
so
therefore
be
resolved.
That
the
mayor
with
the
support
city
council
make
a
formal
formal
request
to
both
the
provincial
and
federal
government
for
funding
specifically
focused
on
supporting
Community
social
support
agencies
impacted
by
the
occupation.
C
Let's
get
there
cast
your
own,
they
come
on
town,
councilor,
leaper,
please.
N
Thank
you.
I
I
am
almost
certain
to
support
this
I
I'm
just
reading
between
the
lines.
We
know,
for
example,
that
the
protesters
the
the
occupiers
were
particularly
devastating
at
Shepherds
of
Good
Hope
is
the
intent
of
this
motion
to
help
restore
some
of
the
losses
that
some
of
those
agencies
like
Cornerstone,
who
have
also
been
quite
devastated,
Shepherds
of
Good
Hope
that
there
is
some
sort
of
restitution
to
them,
or
is
it
intended
to
be
funding
that
would
help
with
ongoing
support
during
the
during
the
occupation.
C
I
apologize
counselor
was
Sir.
Who
are
you
directing
that
to
oh.
N
L
I'm
happy
to
jump
in
I
think
that
the
restitution
aspect
is
is
going
to
be
imperative
in
terms
of
the
implications
of
this
occupation,
but
once
again,
if
there
are
criteria
in
place
that
are
established
by
the
provincial
and
federal
governments
in
terms
of
the
long-term
impacts
of
this
on
these
very
vital
entities
in
our
community,
then
I
would
very
much
say
that
this
would
also
Encompass
that
as
well,
because
this
isn't
this
isn't
a
one
and
done
this.
Isn't
just
what
happened
at
Shops.
L
C
Thank
you,
counselors
councilor
Curry,
on
the
motion.
Please.
D
You
Mr
Mayor,
who
indicated
this
is,
has
been
psychological
warfare
for
people.
You
know
when
you
think
about
just
supporting
Community
social
support
agencies
impacted
by
I,
just
I,
wonder
what
that
really
means
on
the
ground.
That's
all
I'm
trying
to
get
at
what
does
that
specifically
mean
and
I
wonder
if
each
time
we
could
have
a
comment
from
staff
on
anything
else,
we
could
change
in
there
or,
if
that
affects
them
in
any
way
that
we
could
change
the
motion
to
make
it
better.
Obviously,.
L
C
Okay
on
the
motion
by
councilor
dudas
saying
about
counselor
Tierney.
C
M
Thank
you,
your
worship.
Colleagues,
we
must
make
clear
to
those
responsible
for
this
unprecedented
illegal
occupation
that
there
is
both
cost
and
consequence
for
the
continued
disruption
and
occupation
of
ottawa's
downtown.
M
Almost
after
three
years
that
the
comprehensive
Police
Services
act
has
been
passed.
It
has
not
been
put
into
full
force
by
The
Province
as
legislation.
The
financial
pressures
that
this
illegal
occupation
is
placing
on
our
Police
Service
needs
to
be
addressed,
and
the
implementation
of
the
comprehensive,
Police
Services
Act
is
a
tool
to
address
these
pressures.
That's
why
I'm
asking
you
to
support
this
motion.
Thank
you.
C
Okay,
councilor
Gower,
please.
E
Thank
you,
mayor
I
am
going
to
support
this,
but
I
I
just
want
to
make
note
that
in
the,
whereas
is
counselor,
the
counselor
has
has
specified
that
this
is
an
illegal
occupation.
My
concern
is
that
future
councils
here
or
anywhere
else
in
Ontario,
don't
look
at
this
as
a
signal
that
it's
okay
to
try
to
recoup
the
cost
of
any
peaceful,
lawful
protest
or
demonstration
I
think
it's
important
to
specify
very
clearly.
This
is
because
of
the
extreme
and
illegal
nature
of
this
demonstration.
That's
all
thank
you.
Foreign.
O
Thanks
actually
just
in
line
with,
what's
counselor
Gower
just
said,
can
I
get
a
legal
comments
on
this
motion
just
to
get
understanding
of
what
the
what
the
impacts
and
implications
are
of
of
this
type
of
a
decision
to.
O
Gowers
points
the
impacts
on
potential
other
protests.
K
Mr
Mayor,
obviously
we
have
no
experience
with
this.
Legislation
hasn't
been
put
in
place
yet,
but
that
said,
if
you
look
at
the
way
it's
framed
this
this
would
be
something
of
an
exceptional
case
for
it.
It
really
is
framed
around
the
idea
that
those
people
that,
for
example,
might
be
even
holding
a
peaceful
protest
but
who
require
additional
police
resources,
a
parade,
those
kinds
of
things
where
we
already
may
have
some
cost
recovery
I
think
it's
at
some
level.
K
It's
formalizing
that,
but
it's
also
providing
this
additional
opportunity
to
seek
to
seek
the
the
let's
say,
the
Delta
between
the
normal
policing
costs
and
those
increased
policing
costs
that
result
from
their
activity.
F
Yeah
to
Legal
again,
what's
the
difference
between
this
and
retroactive
legislation,
because
it
appears
that
if
this
were
to
be
enacted
in
this
circumstance,
it's
coming
into
Force
after
the
action.
K
Your
your
Mr
Mayor
you're,
quite
correct
as
to
one
when
the
the
ACT
would
be
in
effect.
The
period
that
it
would
be
in
effect
for
is
something
that
we
would
need
to
look
at.
K
As
you
say
right
now,
it
is
not
in
effect
at
all
in
the
ordinary
course,
legislation
is
effective
only
from
that
day
forward.
So
if,
for
example,
if
they
were
to
to
declare
and
enforce
as
of
tomorrow,
there
may
be
an
argument
and
again
subject
to
a
clear
retrospective
application,
it
would
apply
for
presumably
those
increased
costs
that
are
incurred
as
of
tomorrow
and
into
the
future.
K
So
it
would
not
apply
to
yesterday
and
last
week
absent
that
you
know
something
in
the
the
Declaration
or
absence
some
other
revision
of
it.
That
is
that
makes
it
clear
that
the
legislation
is
to
have
retrospective
effect.
K
The
default
for
legislation
is
that
it
is
it.
It
is
effective
in
terms
of
of
determine
anyone's
rights
from
the
date
that
it
is
in
force
and
forward
me.
K
Let
it
apply
yes,
Mr
Mayor
that
again
it
need
it
can't
be.
Essentially
it
cannot
be
read
into
it.
It
must
be
clear
on
its
face
in
that
regard.
Okay,
thank
you.
R
Thank
you
thank
you.
Mr,
Man
and
and
in
the
line
of
the
question
Council
Mr
White
is
this.
Is
this
motion
could
be
modified
not
to
be
include
a
Police
Service
Act
was
not
been
improved
since
1920-19
that
you
mean
has
not
been
approved.
Can
that
be
modified
to
make
it
sound
we're
not
going
after
something
has
not
been
adopted
yet
by
the
government,
but
just
still
good
to
ask
instead
of
focus
just
on
that
area.
K
C
Okay,
thank
you.
Thank
you.
Mr
Roy,
all
right,
thank
you.
So
on
the
motion
by
councilor
King,
second,
by
councilor,
Deans
carried
I'd
update.
C
Said
by
councilor
shirelli,
okay
next
is
councilor
leaper
and
king
Council
committee
meetings
and
reduced
Council
items
counselor
leaper.
Please
thank.
N
You
very
much
mayor
this
has
been
an
exhausting
10
days.
I
know
as
someone
who
is
adjacent
to
the
ward
in
which
this
is
happening
in
which
we
had
any
number
of
issues
around
Park
trucks
and
in
which
you
know
there
was
a
a
fuel
transfer
Point
being
set
up
yesterday
that
took
several
hours
of
work
with
residents
and
police
to
to
deal
with.
N
I
cannot
imagine
what
counselors
flurry
and
McKenney
must
be
doing
sorry
confronting
in
terms
of
trying
to
be
prepared
for
substantial
committee,
work
and,
and
frankly,
I
think
most
of
our
residents
would
expect
us
to
be
focused
on
bringing
this
occupation
to
an
end.
N
I
am
asking
that
we
cancel
the
planning
committee
meeting
this
week
that
the
city
council
meeting
be
stripped
down
to
just
those
elements
that
have
statutory
deadlines,
as
well
as
items
that
can
pass
on
consent
and
that
built
Heritage
be
stripped
down
to
a
a
very
basic
agenda,
something
that
is
critical
to
do.
Moving
forward,
I'm
asking
that
committee
meetings
be
canceled
unless
there
is
very
substantive
and
important
work.
N
No
one
else
is
that
is
a
role
that
we
as
City
councilors
play
in
our
communities,
and
it
is
a
time-consuming
role,
and
that
is
the
role
that
I
would
like
to
be
focused
on
through
the
course
of
what
is
hopefully
a
relatively
brief
pause.
The
next
couple
of
weeks.
If
this
occupation
is
gobsmackingly
allowed
to
continue,
are
going
to
be
extremely
difficult
for
counselors,
certainly
in
the
downtown,
but
certainly
for
for
all
of
you
as
well.
So
I
I
really
hope
that
you
can
support
this
motion.
Thank
you.
C
Okay,
we
have
a
number
of
speakers
on
this
Council
chantieri,
please
I'm.
R
R
It's
not
like
I
mean
the
issue
is
with
the
federal
government
in
Ottawa
and
I.
Think
Council
England
said
it
earlier.
Is
not
the
issue
with
the
resident
of
the
city
of
Ottawa,
but
by
Council
and
City
business?
Isn't
that
given
a
wrong
message?
Hey
you
paralyz
our
city,
we're
not
going
to
be
able
even
to
have
a
meeting
I
mean
we.
We
have
the
leadership
in
the
city,
whether
police,
our
city
staff,
and
we
support
them.
We
we,
you
know
we're
here
to
to
anytime.
R
D
D
Staying
up
at
night,
writing
emails
and
I,
don't
care
if
it's
till
midnight
or
one
in
the
morning
and
I
know
that
certainly
I
offer
support
to
the
counselors
who
are
spending
more
time
on
this
and
and
my
the
staff
in
the
Canada
North
office
would
be
happy
to
help
in
any
way.
But
I
can't
support
us
doing
less
work
when
we
have
the
situation
we
have
outside
and
our
officers
working
14
days
in
a
row,
so
I
can't
support
it.
Sorry.
D
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor.
You
know,
as
I
said
before,
I
have
such
deep
empathy
for
what
my
colleagues
Catherine
and
metzier
are
going
through,
and
their
staff
I
I
can't
imagine
how
I'd
be
feeling
so
I
do
deeply
appreciate
what
councilor
leaper
is
trying
to
do.
I
find
it
problematic.
How
all
encompassing
the
motion
is,
though
you
know
we
heard
clearly
today
we
don't
know
when
this
will
end.
We
don't
know
how
long
the
state
of
emergency
is
going
to
be
in
place.
D
So
no
committee
and
Council
work
at
all
during
that
time
feels
to
me
that
we're
further
impacting
our
residents
in
different
ways.
So
I
guess
this
would
be
a
question
for
the
clerk
I.
Don't
know
what
this
looks
like.
Procedurally,
are
you
able
to
work
with
the
affected
counselors
to
proactively
lean
out
upcoming
agendas
and
defer
on
time
sensitive
items
affecting
their
Wards?
If,
if
that
is
the
will
of
counselor,
McKenney
and
counselor
Fleury,
and
if
you
need
direction
on
that,
I
would
be
happy
to
put
that
forward.
I
Mr
appreciating
that
I
don't
have
a
camera
today,
it's
the
city
clerk.
The
short
answer
of
the
question
is
yes:
actually,
in
the
Council
procedure
bylaw
and
it's
referenced
here,
section
14
sub
7
talks
about
the
fact
and
I'll
read
it.
Mr
Mayor
during
the
emergency
period,
Council
and
committee
meetings
may
be
convened
as
special
meetings
in
accordance
with
sections
14
and
87,
subject
to
the
following
two
conditions
or
three
conditions.
I
A
agendas
must
be
limited
to
the
items
that,
in
the
opinion
of
the
chair,
informed
by
operational
staff
and
the
city
clerk's
office,
if
they
are
time
sensitive
nature
and
that
they
must
be
considered
during
the
emergency
period,
be
subject
to
the
minimum
notice
provisions
of
the
special
meetings
the
mayor
or
chair
of
the
city
clerk's
office
shall
Endeavor
to
publish
agendas
in
accordance
with
the
timeline
set
out
therein
and
a
third
one
with
regards
to
special
meetings
being
called
so
the
effect
why
I
wouldn't
support
the
motion.
I
The
effect
would
be
to
eliminate
those
sections
that
I've
just
read,
which
actually
provide
counsel
with
that
very
flexibility
that
you
require
so
I
at
the
end
of
the
day.
Would
continue
to
work
with
committee
chairs,
we
work
with
them
with
the
use
of
section
14
sub
7
of
your
procedure
bylaw,
and
would
be
able
to
work
that
out,
ironically
Mr
Mayor
for
those
of
counselors
who
remember.
We
made
amendments
or
Council,
made
amendments
to
this
section
about
on
March,
20th,
March,
25th
2020
as
a
result
of
the
beginning
of
the
covid
crisis.
I
D
I
think
I
understand.
Okay,
thank
you.
C
Thank
you,
counselor
Gower,
please.
E
E
Have
no
issues
in
that
regard
and
I
suppose
the
same
question
specifically
to
build
Heritage
subcommittee
or
planning
committee?
Is
there
a
poll
on
staff
resources
that
would
prevent
the
essential
staff
from
being
able
to
participate
and
respond
to
questions
from
counselors
at
any
of
the
meetings?
This
week.
E
The
other
thing,
on
my
mind
is
in
this,
is
is
defining
urgency
of
of
files
and
of
items
we
have.
We
have
two
committees
this
week
that
happen
to
be
related
to
planning
and,
although
it
may
not
be
urgent
to
any
of
us
individually,
I
would
think
anyone
who
has
a
file
tomorrow
at
build
Heritage
or
anyone
who
may
have
a
file
being
considered
this
Thursday
a
planning
committee.
The
ability
to
have
their
files
considered,
is
of
extreme
importance
and
could
have
financial
implications
as
well
to
those
applicants.
I
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor
and
I
want
to
thank
Council
kids
for
the
questions
of
the
clerk,
as
well
as
to
whether
there's
already
existing
mechanisms
to
assist
here.
I
You
know
I
have
a
bit
of
a
flavor
for
this
in
the
sense
of
of
my
office.
After
the
after
the
tornado
and
and
just
emails
emails,
emails
phone
calls,
site
visits,
I
get
it
and
I
and
I
feel
for
my
colleagues
100
100
percent.
I
You
know
these
are
not
easy
times
and
they're,
not
you
know,
there's
there's,
there's
no,
there's
no
rule
books
or
guidebook
for
the
counselors
involved
as
to
what
to
do
when
you
have.
You
know
an
occupation
like
this
when
you
have
a
natural
disaster,
I
100
but
I
I
have
to
think
back
to
what
what
UI
said
earlier
and
it
sounds
to
me
like
we're,
helping
them
achieve
some
of
their
goals.
By
doing
this,
we're
saying
to
them.
I
You
know
you
come
to
our
town,
you
disrupt
our
our
situation,
you
disrupt
our
community,
our
residents
and,
and
you
slow
down
the
the
business
of
the
city
and
to
me
that's
we
don't
want
to
do
that.
We
we
want
to
get
back
to
normal
as
quickly
as
we
can
get
back
to
normal.
We
want
to
keep
things
moving
forward
and
and
I.
I
You
know,
I,
sincerely
hope
and
I
believe
that
the
clerk's
office
will
work
with
the
with
the
impacted
counselors,
but
I
I
think
we're
we're
obligated
to
continue
to
do
our
job
for
the
whole
city
and
and
not
not
give
in
to
this
situation
that
we
have
and
again
that's
with
a
hundred
percent
support
and
empathy
for
what
my
colleagues
are
going
through
again
had
a
small
taste
of
it.
I
You
know
at
the
beginning
of
term
or
or
just
before,
the
beginning
term,
with
the
tornado
and
and
your
staff
retired
you're,
tired,
I,
get
it
I,
understand
it,
but
I
I
think
we'd
be
sending
a
message
saying
you
know
again:
you've
come
to
our
town,
you've
disrupted
us
and
you've
achieved
what
you
part
of
what
you
want
to
do,
which
is
to
disrupt
the
business
of
the
city
and
and
I
I.
Don't
think
we
can
do
that.
So
thank.
Q
Oh
thank
you
mayor
and
thanks
for
the
thanks
for
the
conversation
from
all
of
my
colleagues,
I
guess
the
difference
here
really
is
that
and
again
I
I
reflect
back
to
the
experience
of
residents,
not
the
experience
on
the
hill
and
it's
an
ongoing
threat.
We
don't
it's
not
over.
People
are
still
in
fear
for
good
reason.
There
are
there's
an
occupation
happening,
a
very
violent
people
in
their
residential
neighborhood.
Think
about
that
up
and
down
your
streets.
Q
Q
Q
Maybe
it
is
if
we,
if
we
did
it
long
term,
so
what
I'm
going
to
suggest
here
and
I
hope
that
it's
something
that
you
will
consider
because
I'll
tell
you
from
me
again:
it's
not
about
being
tired,
but
it's
about
just
not
being
able
to
represent
my
residence
on
files
that
are
important
that
are
upcoming,
city-wide
files.
So
maybe
it's
and
I
wonder
if
counselor
leaper
would
accept
the
friendly
amendment
that
we
do
this
just
for
two
weeks.
Q
Q
N
Thanks
councilor
McKinney
and
yes,
I
would
accept
that
as
a
friendly
Amendment.
We
just
need
a
bit
of
a
pause
and
a
chance
to
catch
our
breath.
The
planning
committee
this
week
will
have
the
hospital
on
it.
Three
of
the
counselors
who
are
immediately
adjacent
to
the
hospital
are
heavily
implicated
right
now
in
in
occupation,
work
I'm
not
going
to
be
prepared
for
that
meeting.
N
It's
been
11
days
and
and
counselor
Curry.
It
has
not
been
writing
emails.
Yeah,
councilman,
Kenny
I
would
be
very
happy
to
take
that
two
week.
We
just
need
a
pause.
C
Okay,
councilor
Menard,
please
yeah.
Sorry,
the
clerk
has
put
it
on
the
screen.
What
she
believes
is
your
intention.
Councilor
McKinney
is
that
capture
it.
N
O
Thanks
mayor
I
think
that
amendment
is
important.
I
think
we're
talking
about
a
very
short
period
of
time
here,
where
this
is
needed.
I
hear
the
line
about
sort
of
giving
in.
By
supporting
this
motion,
that's
really
difficult
to
hear
I
think
there's
a
lot
of
things
we've
had
to
adjust
in
the
city.
Our
library
is
closed.
O
Our
transit
services
are
detoured,
our
roads
and
pathways
are
closed,
and
we
do
that
for
a
reason,
and
it's
unfortunate
I
wish
it
wasn't
the
case,
but
that's
happening
right
now,
and
this
is
escalating.
Things
are
getting
worse.
People
are
more
dug
in
now
and
that's
where
you
see
potential
for
this
larger
escalation,
and
there
are
meetings
coming
up
this
week,
there's
a
huge
heavy
workload
potential
with
those
meetings.
O
I
don't
want
them
to
delayed
indefinitely
I
think
we
need
a
week,
maybe
two
at
the
most,
but
there's
a
lot
of
of
work
that
is
involved.
That
needs
to
be
given
proper
time
with
motions
and
other
work
with
constituents
and
delegations
and
questions.
You
know
there's
a
lot
of
preparation
that
goes
into
those
those
meetings
and
we're
inundated.
O
O
It
is
constantly
being
on
social
media
and
other
connections
that
have
been
made
with
groups
that
are
organizing
here
to
support
each
other,
because
the
lack
of
support
that
they've
received
I
think
we're
asking
you
for
your
support.
It's
not
about
the
the
occupation.
This
is
about
the
support
for
your
colleagues,
and
this
is
a
time
that
we
need
that
help.
I
really
appreciated
counselor,
Tierney
and
counselor
dudas
coming
out
and
being
there
on
the
street
with
us
last
Friday,
you
know,
counselor
El,
Centauri,
I,
heard
your
comments.
O
I
I
can
only
remember
back
to
the
floods.
That
was
a
time
where
you
know
I
went
out
to
your
community.
I
know
you
didn't
know:
I
was
there,
but
I
was
there.
I
was
shoveling,
I
was
filling
sandbags,
I
helped
your
neighbors
that
that
were
having
struggles
there
on
the
side
of
the
streets.
I
saw
I
stopped
by
them
and
I
helped
them
sandbag
their
house
in
your
community
and
we're
asking
for
that
same
support
right
now.
That
type
of
support,
and
that
for
us
is
time
because
it
is
not
feasible
right
now.
O
C
Colleagues
before
we
carry
on
councilor
dudas
and
counselor
DeRose,
as
our
Deputy
Mayors
have
a
motion
to
extend
the
city
sitting
past
7
PM.
We
need
to
do
this
before
6
45,
so
councilor
dude
asks,
if
you
could
introduce
the
motion,
please.
Second,
by
counselor
Derose.
C
And
it's
on
the
screen:
counselor
dudas.
L
Sorry
I
was
on
mute,
be
it
resolved
at
the
meeting
time
be
extended,
past
7
PM
until
10
pm
pursuant
to
subsection
eight
one
C
of
procedure,
bylaw
bylaw,
number
20,
21,
24.,.
C
Okay
and
the
clerk
will
tell
us
about
the
broadcast
changes.
D
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor
I
can
confirm
that
we
will
continue
streaming.
The
special
meeting
on
the
Ottawa
city
council,
YouTube
channel
called
say
Municipal
of
franci,
the
Rogers
TV
English
cable
channel,
may
cut
over
to
other
programming
later
this
evening,
but
we
will
continue
streaming
live
on
the
city
of
Ottawa,
Ottawa
city,
council,
YouTube,
channel.
C
Okay,
councilor,
Brockton
and
Kevin
I
believe
you
have
your
hands
up
for
the
motion.
Not
for
the
procedural
motion
is
that
correct
so
on
the
motion
it's
presented
by
the
two
Deputy
Mayors
Kerry.
B
H
Thank
you
very
much
and
I
appreciate
the
amendment
by
councilor
McKinney.
This
is
this
is
short
term
and
hopefully
not
long
term.
Maybe
I'm
an
optimist
but
I'm
already
getting
the
feeling
of
of
what
it
takes.
I
had
to
cancel
a
community
meeting
tonight
so
very
disappointing
to
do
that,
and
you
put
so
much
work
into
these
things,
because
the
focus
is
here.
H
I
have
to
be
here,
I
have
to
join
you
and
and
be
with
my
colleagues
and
and
and
do
this,
but
it's
obvious
that
this
is
taking
over
for
now
and
and
I
can
only
imagine
the
stress,
that's
on
those
that
are
directly
affected
because
we're
certainly
feeling
it
here
and
it's
not
happening
in
our
in
our
warts,
but
the
implications
are
in
our
residents
are
very
concerned,
so
I
sympathize
and
I
and
I
don't
think
it's
an
unreasonal
request,
considering
a
specially
planning
committee,
which
is
a
a
doozy
of
a
file
for
those
living
centrally
and
I,
think
that
it
needs
to
be
treated
seriously.
F
T
Mr
Willis
Mr
Mayor,
stop
will
take
whatever
Direction
Council
gives,
because
that's
what
we
would
do
I
did
connect
with
the
executives
at
the
Ottawa
Hospital
last
night
and
this
morning,
and
they
do
have
concerns
about
an
in
indeterminate
length
of
delay.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
any
delay
is
of
great
concern
to
them.
What
the
hospital
told
me
and
I'm
repeating
what
they
have
provided
me
is.
T
The
hospital
has
a
an
agreement
with
infrastructure,
Ontario
and
the
Ministry
of
Health
related
to
an
on
time
and
on-budget
commitment
based
on
a
finite
capped
budget
from
The
Province.
The
effective
inflation
on
the
hospital
project
is
9
to
11
million
dollars
per
month
with
any
delay,
and
there
is
a
cascading
effect
of
any
delay
that
happens.
The
hospital.
T
T
Commission
gave
its
approval,
so
this
is
the
last
approval
they
need
to
go
to
Tender
and
the
hospital
has
said
that
they
had
actually
Been
On
Target
to
get
this
approval
in
December,
but
delayed
at
our
request
to
add
additional
public
consultations
which
it
is
and
I
think
you
know,
there's
an
understanding
from
the
hospital
that
we're
in
difficult
times.
They've
just
conveyed
to
me
the
consequences
of
an
indeterminate
delay.
F
Thank
you,
and
it
was
also
scheduled
for
January
that
got
pushed
into
February,
so
there's
been
more
than
one
postponement.
What
about
other
matters
on
either
that
agenda
or
other
agendas?
That
would
not
be
heard
in
this
two-week
window.
T
So
Mr
Mayor,
since
yesterday,
we've
done
a
sweep
through
the
two
agendas
and
the
subsequent
weeks
the
files
of
concern
one
was
the
daily
Avenue
one
which
is
addressed
in
counselor
leapers
motion,
because
we
did
flag
that
yesterday
and
councilor
leaper
our
request
added
to
deal
with
the
daily
Avenue
one,
because
that
is
a
safety
concern
of
a
building
that
had
been
subject
to
a
fire.
T
We
have
another
file
of
concern
in
counselor,
Kings,
ward
of
built,
Heritage
related
to
request
for
new
construction
that,
if
not,
if
Council,
doesn't
deal
with
in
the
time
frame.
The
city's
opinion
on
that
matter
will
have
no
regard,
because
the
applicant
will
have
the
right
to
proceed
without
City
council's
regard.
Those
are
the
files
of
of
immediate
concern.
Staff
have
not
gone
any
further
out
than
the
most
immediate
meetings
to
do
an
analysis
at
this
stage.
But
you
know,
applicants
will
be
understanding,
but
we
do
have
concerns
the
longer.
T
F
Yeah
I
guess
my
final
comments
would
be
I.
Would
ask
committee
chairs,
when
you're,
looking
at
your
agendas,
to
consider
the
workloads
that
we
have
and
if
there
are
agenda
items
that
can
be
pushed
to
a
future
date,
so
be
it
but
I
support
continuing
the
business
of
the
city
flowing
and
would
like
to
see
our
meeting
schedules
continue,
but
I
am
cognizant
of
of
the
heavy
workloads
that
we're
all
facing.
F
It's,
not
just
the
the
city
councilors
in
the
downtown
core.
Thank
you.
C
Thank
you,
councilor
I
think
councilor
Menard,
you've
already
spoken.
C
O
Thanks
so
just
on
the
one
piece
that
was
mentioned
by
Mr
Willis
around
the
hospital
we've
got
in
emails
here
from
folks
saying
that
can
go
on
the
10th
or
the
28th
of
February,
so
my
understanding
is
that
can
which
it
should
not
go
any
further
than
that
it
should
go
on
the
28th,
but
that's
the
emails
that
City
staff
have
given
to
us
10th
or
the
28th.
O
O
T
Sorry,
Mr
Mr,
Mayor
I,
don't
have
that
email
in
front
of
me
so
I
don't
know
what
the
counselor
is
referring
to
I
mean.
Obviously,
staff
will
accommodate
whatever
Council
decides.
O
T
Very
briefly,
Mr:
well,
it's
based
on
the
information
that
you
have.
What
additional
costs
will
be
incurred
by
the
Ottawa
Hospital
project
if
we
are
to
delay
as
is
being
suggested
here
and
who
ultimately
pays
for
that
delay,
so
Mr
Mayor,
depending
on
the
length
of
time,
Council
delays.
A
final
decision
on
our
filing
committee.
Excuse
me
because
the
planning
committee
is
the
final
decision,
since
it
is
a
site
plan
approval.
T
The
hospital
is
identified,
9
to
11
million
dollars
per
month
in
inflationary
effects
of
the
delay
of
the
hospital
project,
because
there's
a
knock-on
effect
all
the
way
through
the
system.
That's
the
information
I've
been
provided
by
the
hospital
I.
Don't
I,
don't
have
the
information
from
the
hospital
here,
but
I
presume,
because
the
province
has
a
fixed
total
cap.
That
means
that
they
would
either
have
to
find
I
presumed.
They
would
either
have
to
find
cost
Savings
in
the
project
or
go
increase.
T
The
local
share
component
provided
by
the
community
and
the
local
share
component
may
end
up
being
the
city
of
Ottawa
or
could
end
up
being
in
part.
The
city
of
Ottawa
Mr
Mayor,
can't
comment
on
that.
It's
there
is.
There
is
a
request
for
a
local
share
like
it's
up
to
council,
ultimately
to
decide
what
its
local
share
contribution
would
be.
Okay.
T
Well,
given
the
ballooning
costs
we've
seen
of
major
infrastructure
projects
and
the
in
ridiculous
costs
that
we
are
paying
right
now
in
policing,
I,
don't
know
if,
if
pushing
this
project
any
further
down,
the
line
is
a
wise
move,
but
I
see
that
councilor
leapers
up
all
that
see
the
floor.
P
Mr
may
I
would
be
really
brief.
This
is
an
event,
unlike
any
other,
that
we
have
seen
in
our
history.
This
is
an
all
hands
on
deck
event.
Every
one
of
us
are
impacted,
certainly
the
downtown
counselors
and
those
with
leadership.
Roles
on
Council
have
an
awful
lot
on
their
plate
and
their
time
and
attention
is
focused
directly
on
this
issue
and,
in
my
mind,
a
two-week
delay
whether
it
goes
on
Wednesday
or
if
it
goes
on,
the
28th
really
doesn't
matter.
P
What
does
matter
is
that
we
focus
on
the
needs
of
this
city,
that's
in
a
crisis
and
where
we've
declared
it
an
emergency.
So
I
would
just
suggest
to
our
colleagues
that
we
hear
from
our
colleagues
that
are
really
asking
for
the
time
to
be
able
to
give
every
single
issue
that
goes
to
in
front
of
council
the
time
and
attention
that
it
needs
foreign.
N
Chair
I
actually
put
my
hand
up
to
ask
you
to
consider
calling
the
vote,
because
we
don't
want
to
spend
a
lot
of
time
on
this.
There
is
obviously
a
much
more
urgent
things
to
do,
but
I
would
ask
colleagues
to
help
us
create
a
little
bit
of
breathing
space
so
that
each
of
us
can
best
represent
our
constituents
in
in
the
legislative
agenda
over
the
next
couple
of
weeks.
C
Thank
you.
Colleagues
I'd
urge
you
not
to
support
the
motion.
This
group,
that's
terrorizing,
our
city
they've
shut
down
our
streets.
They
really
want
to
shut
down
Parliament.
It
would
almost
be
an
added
bonus
if
they're
able
to
shut
down
Ottawa
city
council
business,
the
worst
possible
signal
that
could
be
given
to
this
group
of
hooligans
that
are
terrorizing
our
people.
We
need
to
continue
on.
B
K
N
O
H
H
C
C
I
O
This
is
this:
is
the
idling
motion,
so
it
it
changes
our
idling
by
law
for
a
specific
area
in
the
city
that
targets
this
activity
so
therefore
be
a
result
of
the
temporary
additional
provision
in
the
by-law
be
enacted
with
a
sunset
Clause
of
two
months.
Hence
as
follows:
section
three
be
amended
to
add
immediately
after
one
one,
a
occupied
vehicles
with
the
temperature
outside
the
vehicle
is
less
than
negative.
15
degrees
Celsius,
including
the
wind
chill
value,
is
determined
by
Environment.
O
C
No
okay
on
the
motion
carried
next
is
the
daily
media
availability.
Councilor
Deans,
please,
second,
by
counselor
King.
P
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor,
I'm,
not
sure,
if
they're
going
to
put
it
up
on
the
screen,
but
basically
it
just
says
that
residents
need
access
to
timely
and
accurate
updates
about
the
ongoing
Convoy
demonstrations
or
whatever
we
want
to
call
them
occupations
and
that
there
is
a
lot
of
misinformation
about
the
demonstrations
out
there
right
now
and
the
situation.
P
The
response
from
Ottawa,
Police
and
city
of
Ottawa
is
very
fluid
and
that
the
city
is
not
currently
providing
daily
updates
to
keep
the
public
informed
on
how
the
demonstrations
are
evolving
in
the
plans
to
end
them
as
soon
as
possible.
So
this
motion
that
therefore
be
it
resolved,
is
asking
for
a
city
led
by
the
city's
Emergency
Operations
Center,
to
organize
a
daily
media
availability
for
the
duration
of
the
demonstrations,
occupations,
including
participation
from
a
spokesperson
from
the
Ottawa
Police,
Service,
bylaw
services
and
other
affected
city
services
as
relevant
and
I
I.
P
Just
think
you
know,
communicate,
communicate,
communicate.
We
need
to
be
providing
accurate,
timely
information
to
the
public
on.
You
know
a
regular
basis,
and
we
haven't
been
doing
that.
I
think
it's
time
that
we
did
I.
You
know
social
media
is
Rife
with
misinformation
and
I
think
it's
incumbent
on
the
city
to
make
sure
that
we're
pushing
out
accurate
information
on
a
timely
basis.
So
that's
the
essence
of
the
motion.
Thank
you.
G
Mr
Mayor
no
way,
you
know
to
be
clear,
I
know
in
the
one,
whereas
it
says
the
city
of
Ottawa
the
the
communications.
For
this
event,
in
terms
of
when
it
ends
and
and
Advising,
the
public
is
led
by
audible
police.
They
they
are
leading
the
response
to
this,
but
we
agree
that
they
have
a
small
Communications,
clean
Team.
We
agree
with
councilor
Deans
that
it's
very
difficult
for
them
logistically
to
establish
a
daily
briefing.
We
believe
this
should
be
a
daily
briefing.
G
We
spoke
to
our
police
colleagues
and
pimmer.
We've
spoken
to
Valeria
Turner,
our
general
manager
and
pimmer,
and
from
our
side
the
city
Side
will
do
the
logistics
to
ensure
that
there
is
a
daily
media
briefing,
with
police
being
there
and
city
services
to
ensure
that
the
information
gets
out
to
the
public
on
a
daily
basis.
C
Okay,
councilor
dudas,
oh
I,
think
you
took.
L
Your
hand
I,
was
just
going
to
ask
for
City
manager's
perspective
on
that.
C
Okay,
anyone
else
on
the
motion
carried
adopt
a
Aron
next
motion
by
counselor
McKenney
signed
by
councilor
Florida
and
the
Parliamentary
Precinct
Council
McKinney.
C
Okay,
I'd
like
to
ask
police:
do
they
have
any
concerns
with
this
I
know,
early
on
in
the
years
and
days
have
been
called
drafting
of
this
yeah.
Q
C
D
Mr
Mayor.
If
the
member
is
moving
to
put
the
question,
then
the
procedure
would
be
to
move
to
a
vote
on
putting
the
question
and
then
should
that
motion
pass.
Then
we
would
move
directly
to
yeas
and
nays
on
the
main
motion.
O
N
C
C
S
Yes,
thank
you
Mr
Mayor,
so
in
in
our
review
of
this
of
this
motion,
we've
relied
on
a
bit
some
legal
advice
from
our
lawyer
and
I'm
sure
David
White
can
also
provide
us
some
different,
some
additional
perspective.
We
will
remain
the
police
jurisdiction.
Anything
we
can
do
to
help
support
RCMP
resources
and
other
resources
to
come
to
us
would
be
exceptionally
beneficial.
S
We
will
always
maintain
command
and
control
of
the
situation,
as
is
Our
obligation
to
the
police
services
act,
but
we
do
appreciate
any
vote
any
motion
or
any
efforts
that
the
council
can
put
forward
to
support
additional
resources
to
come
in.
O
S
D
O
D
D
Q
F
Thank
you
mayor
last
briefing,
I
believe
on
Saturday
from
Chief.
Slowly
he
had
indicated
the
parliamentary
Precinct
is
Ottawa
jurisdiction,
Ottawa
roads.
We
would
not
be
able
to
allow
the
RCMP
to
take
over
but
I'm.
Looking
at
the
specific
wording
of
the
motion
at
the
end
that
talks
about
the
jurisdiction,
so
I
think
we're
all
in
favor
of
asking
as
many
jurisdictions
to
come
and
assist
Ottawa
as
possible,
including
the
RCMP
and
I
I,
do
believe.
F
Councilor
McKinney
wants
to
relieve
Ops
in
this
quarter,
so
they
can
come
into
our
residential
communities
and
provide
that
service.
That's
been
lacking,
so
I
understand
that
I
just
want
to
make
sure
we've
got
the
right
worded
motion
before
us
that
will
achieve
what
is
being
attempted
here.
So
I
don't
know
if
Mr
city
clerk
can
comment
on
that
or
or
whether
the
deputy
chief
can
but
I
want
to
make
sure
if
the
RCMP
comes
in,
they
will
actually
be
able
to
do
what
counselor
McKinney
wants
them
to
do.
S
Mr
Mayor
I
can
probably
start
on
that.
Our
legal
counsel's
review
of
the
police
services
act
indicates
that,
under
that
the
police
jurisdiction
is
responsible
for
the
policing
within
the
areas
where
we
are
responsible
within
the
city
of
Ottawa
other
than
Parliament
Hill.
So
the
the
ability
for
the
RCMP
to
come
in
and
take
over
all
policing
control
within
that
area
is
not
allowed
under
the
police
services
act.
S
We
would
support
any
efforts
to
have
more
RCMP
resources
come
in
and
help
support
us
under
our
command
structure
to
actually
manage
the
occupation
we
have
going
forward.
But
currently,
as
it
stands,
it's
our
our
legal
counsel's
opinion
that
there
is
no
Provisions
within
the
police
services
act
to
allow
a
different,
Police
Service
come
in
to
take
over
an
area.
C
So
I
I
think
you
know
you
know
we
may
be
overthinking
this,
because
the
officers,
the
RCMP
officers,
are
sworn
in
as
special
constables
by
the
police
board
and
the
Ops
is
known
as
the
one
that
is
controlling
the
situation.
So
I
don't
see
what's
wrong
with
having
RCMP
on
Wellington
that
frees
up
our
officers
that
know
the
neighborhood
streets
better
than
our
CMP
officer,
who
may
come
in
from
Alberta
or
British
Columbia
anyways.
C
That's
just
an
observation,
so
I
think
councilor,
Deans
or
I'm,
sorry,
councilor,
McKinney
and
then
councilor
Deans
can.
F
F
So
if
we
receive
RCMP
officers
and
they're
directed
to
work
in
tandem
with
the
Ops-
and
they
just
so
happen
to
be
sent
to
Wellington
I
think
as
per
the
mayor,
that's
okay,
that
that
can
happen,
but
I
I,
think
and
I
I
want
to
yield
to
counselor
McKinney
I!
Think
what
they're
asking
is
something
a
bit
different
and
so
that's
why
I'm
going
to
yield
the
floor
and
seek
that
clarification.
Q
You
mayor
and
thank
you
Council
Brockington.
Q
What
I
need
to
have
happen
because
I
Can
See
Clearly
what
is
not
working,
because
it's
right
here
and
so
the
I
don't
want
RCMP
to
take
over
necessarily
I
I
I
I
understand
what
deputy
chief
Bell
is
is
referring
to
it's.
Why
I
use
the
words
assume
responsibility?
Q
What
I
need
is
and
what
I'm
looking
for
is
that
the
RCMP
right
now
have
got
responsibility
for
the
the
grounds
of
parliament.
So
had
this
rushed
to
the
grounds
of
Parliament
and
stayed
there,
it
would
be
overseen
by
the
RCMP,
and
at
this
point
our
residential
neighborhoods,
If,
This
Were
happening
would
be.
Q
We
would
have
our
local
police
Service
responsible
for
the
control
of
of
the
of
residential
neighborhoods
I
want
you
to
just
think
of
it
that
way.
So
it's
not
just
it's
not
just
on
Parliament
grounds.
Also
in
Wellington
it's
over
it.
Q
You
know
on
on
Sparks
that
the
prime
minister's
office-
this
is
a
very
multi-jurisdictional
you
all
you
have
to
do-
is
come
to
one
Spark,
Street
mall
authority
meeting
to
understand
how
multi-jurisdictional
this
area
is
all
I'm
looking
for
is
that
Ops
leaves
it
to
the
RCMP
I,
don't
care
about
command
and
control,
but
leaves
it
to
the
RCMP
to
to
maintain
the
public
safety
within
that
Precinct
so
that
all
of
Ops
can
come
into
the
residential
neighborhoods?
Q
If,
in
fact,
RCMP
say
you
know,
I
need
a,
we
need
a
hundred
Ops
I,
that's
not
that's
I'm,
not
quibbling
about
numbers
and
where
people
go
and
all
I
all
I
know
is
that
at
this
point
for
11
days,
I
have
been
struggling
to
make
Ops
aware
of
the
difference
between
what's
happening
in
the
non-residential
area
versus
the
residential
area
and
residents
are
suffering
the
consequences.
It's
it's
and
it's
again
and
I
said
this
last
week.
This
is
not
an
indictment
of
one
force
over
the
other.
Q
It
really
isn't
it's
just
a
matter
of
clarity,
so
that
so
that
we
that
we
are
putting
the
resources
where
they
need
to
go.
So
that
our
local
police
are
actually
serving
the
neighborhoods
that
they're
committed
to
serving
that
that
we
need
them
in
to
serve
and
that's
their
priority
and
our
cmp's
priority
is
in
the
Parliamentary
Precinct.
C
D
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor,
I
think
councilor
mechanic.
Let.
R
C
Much
thank
you.
Councilor
counselor.
J
J
Our
community
best,
they
know
our
city
teams,
they
know
businesses,
they
know
residents
so
I
I'm
in
full
support
of
of
councilor
McKinney's
motion.
I
think
it
is
important.
I
think
eventually,
we'll
have
to
have
a
bigger
conversation
on.
Can
the
city
of
Ottawa
should
the
city
of
Ottawa
oversee
demo,
demonstrations
that
that
is
not
for
today
and
that's
not
what's
on
the
table,
but
for
today,
under
the
state
of
emergency
I
think
it
is
important.
It
is
an
important
motion
to
pass.
So.
Thank
you.
Everyone
for
your
support.
C
Now
see,
councilor
dude
asks
please.
L
I
was
just
going
to
thank
them
for
introducing
this
and
I
think
that
this
is
absolutely
essential,
and
it
only
is
calling
for
additional
resources
which
we've
been
hearing.
Our
chief
ask
for
it's
asking
them
to
be.
You
know,
prior
to
prioritizing
a
given
area,
and
in
this
case,
that
area
makes
the
most
sense
being
the
Parliamentary
Precinct.
L
So
I
think
this
is
actually
complementing
what
our
chief
has
asked
for
that
we
are
freeing
up
the
resources
and
I
think
the
federal
government
needs
to
take
responsibility
for
the
area
that
they're
responsible
for
so
I.
Thank
them
for
introducing
this
and
we'll
be
supporting
it.
P
I
think
it's
a
little
late
in
the
day
and
I'm
still
a
little
bit
unclear.
P
So
I
want
to
be
very
clear
before
I
support
this,
because
I
listened
to
the
press
conference
with
Bill
Blair
this
morning
and
Bill
Blair
said
that
the
Ottawa
Police
Service
is
the
police
of
the
jurisdiction
in
that
area
and
what
I
think
we
all
want
is
more
RCMP
resources
not
dedicated
to
you
know
watching
over
residents
of
federal
officials
or
anything
like
that,
but
on
the
ground
to
assist
us
and
I
think
we're
all
in
agreement
with
that.
But
I
I've
read
this
motion.
P
It's
going
off
the
screen
again,
but
I've
read
this
motion
and
I'm
not
entirely
clear
that
what
this
motion
says
is
what
some
of
my
colleagues
are
hearing.
So
I
just
want
to
ask
deputy
chief
Bell
if
he
could
be
very
clear
on
what
this.
What
his
impression
of
this
motion
is,
is
it
that
we
are
taking
Ops
officers
off
Wellington
Street
and
turning
the
the
jurisdiction
of
Wellington
straight
down,
Torito
and
Sussex
over
to
the
RCMP,
because
I
didn't
believe
we
could
do
that.
So
I
just
need
some
clarity.
S
Three
and
Mr
Mayor.
Thank
you
very
much,
councilor
Deans,
as
I
indicated
before
that.
That
is
exactly
my
concern
with
the
wording
in
in
this
current
motion.
I
fully
support
and
I've
said
it
when
I
was
here
before
and
I
know
the
chief
continued.
All
of
that
those
comments,
anything
we
can
do
to
get
additional
resources
to
help
us
within
the
area
of
the
occupation
is
exactly
what
we
are
looking
for.
S
My
concern
with
this
motion
is
how
it
reads
it
identifies
that
the
Ottawa
Police
would
be
removed
from
that
area
and
that
area
the
Safety
and
Security
would
be
Public.
Safety
and
Security
would
be
turned
over
to
the
RCM
RCMP
I,
don't
that
that
is
an
operational
consideration
in
terms
of
how
we
deploy
our
resources,
because
that
is
an
area
where
we
are
legally
bound
to
provide
policing
services
to
this.
S
The
way
it
is
worded
is
looking
to
take
that
legal
obligation
that
we
have
away
from
us
and
place
it
onto
the
RCMP
which,
under
the
police
services
Act,
is
not
allowed.
We
are
the
police
of
jurisdiction.
We
have
the
sole
responsibility
to
police.
That
area.
We
are
looking
for
an
in
absolute
support
of
any
motion
that
will
help
augment
our
resources.
I,
don't
believe
that
this
one
actually
achieves
that.
P
Okay,
well,
thank
you
for
that.
Deputy
chief,
Bell
and
I
would
just
ask
the
Mover
of
the
motion.
If
there
isn't
some
wording
that
we
could
find
to
accomplish
the
desire
for
more
resources
without
getting
into
a
jurisdictional
battle,
frankly,
a
jurisdictional
battle
of
constitutional
battle
or
any
other
battle
right
now
is
not
what
I
think
we
need
to
focus
on.
We
need
to
focus
on
resources,
and
that
is
the
key
essence
of
what
we
heard
from
Bill
Blair.
P
We
just
heard
from
deputy
chief
Bell
jurisdictionally
Ottawa
Police
have
control
of
that
and,
frankly,
if
they
decide
to
go
in
and
do
an
operation
on
Wellington
Street,
this
motion
seems
to
preclude
Ops
from
from
participating.
I
mean
to
me:
let's
leave
the
the
operations
to
the
Ottawa
Police
Service,
let's
leave
the
jurisdiction
to
who
has
the
jurisdiction
and
let's
focus
on
what
I
think
we
all
want,
which
is
more
resources
on
the
ground
to
end
this
insurrection,
I.
C
Think
counselor,
if
I
could
just
comment.
The
last
line
seems
to
give
that
that
this,
the
comfort
that
I
have
it
says,
subject
to
the
resolution
of
any
jurisdictional
discussion
between
Ottawa
Police
and
the
RCMP.
So
they
will
go
back
as
a
result
of
this
motion
and
discuss
if
there
are
any
jurisdictional
issues
at
heart.
C
So
I
think
that
gives
the
the
chief
the
opportunity
to
once
again
re
restate
and
recommit
that
he
is
in
charge
and
that
we
have
sworn
officers
and
special
constables
from
the
RCMP
that
he
will
assign
to
to
Wellington
Street.
So
I
feel
comfortable
because
it
says,
subject
to
the
resolution
of
any
jurisdictional
discussions
between
well.
P
We
just
heard
from
deputy
chief
Bell-
and
we
heard
from
Bill
Blair
earlier
in
the
day
that
there
are
significant
jurisdictional
issues
that
preclude
this,
so
maybe
to
David
White,
then
David.
Could
you
clarify
how
this
motion
would
be
interpreted
because
I
think
think
it's
unfair
to
the
community
and
to
councilman
McKinney
to
leave
some
false
impression
that
the
RCMP
will
be
taking
over
if
jurisdictionally,
that
is
not
possible,
so
I
I
just
think
that
we
have
to
be
very
clear
on
what
it
is.
That
council
is
passing
if
they
vote
for
this
motion.
K
Mr
Mayor
to
some
just
to
follow
on
the
comments
from
the
deputy
chief
and
as
we've
heard,
the
there's
nothing.
The
council
can
do
to
change
the
fact
that
the
the
police
services
act
applies
in
those
areas
that
are
not
Parliament,
Hill,
proper
or
those
other
Federal
properties.
K
As
a
result,
the
the
Ottawa
Police
retain
responsibility
overall
responsibility
for
police
services
in
those
areas
as
the
police
force
of
jurisdiction.
As
it
said,
the
way
I
again
I
think
I
understand
the
the
intent
to
be
that
been
appreciating
that
the
RCMP
have
made
officers
available
and
they
they
have
peace
officer
Powers
by
virtue
of
their
their
RCP
status.
K
They
have
the
authority
to
enforce
the
criminal
law
across
Canada,
but
they've
also
been
provided
with
powers
as
special
constables
through
the
enforcement
of
of
provincial
offenses
act
charges
and
Municipal
bylaws.
K
My
understanding
is
the
aim
of
the
motion
is
to
allow
the
RCMP
to
focus
on
Parliament
Hill
and
those
Federal
properties
appreciating
that
the
officers
that
are
provided
to
the
Ottawa
Police,
as
special
constables
with
those
Powers
will
remain
with
the
under
the
the
the
direction
of
the
chief
subject
to
deployment
at
the
direction
of
the
chief
Council
again
and
just
again,
echoing
just
some
of
the
comments
that
we
heard
earlier
today
from
the
federal
ministers,
Council
Council
cannot
direct
the
police
in
that
regard,
so
I
think
that's.
K
Hence
the
purpose
of
the
the
last
part
of
the
motion
in
terms
of
the
resolution
of
any
jurisdictional
issues,
but
I
I
don't
understand
it
anyway
to
be
any
effort,
because
it
would
be
outside
council's
ability
to
expand
or
limit
the
application
of
the
police
services
act
or
effectively
expand
the
control
of
the
federal
government.
K
It
is
a
as
I
understand
it
a
resourcing
issue,
and
it
is
intended
to
respect
the
various
authorities
and
jurisdictions
both
of
the
RCMP
and
federal
government
and
the
the
Ottawa
Police
and
the
Police
Services
Board.
P
Okay,
well,
if
that's
what
it
is,
then
that's
fine.
If
this
is
changing
jurisdictions
that
we
do
not
have
the
power
to
do,
then,
then
it's
not
fine
and
I
I.
Just
think
that
we
have
to
be
really
clear.
I
think
we
all
agree
with
the
premise
that
resources
need
to
be
on
the
ground
and
RCMP
resources
can
be
there.
That's
fine,
but
I,
don't
think
we
can
leave
a
false
impression
in
the
community
that
we're
changing
jurisdictions.
C
Councilman
Kenny
I
wish
in
hindsight
I
had
allowed
you
to
call
the
question.
Councilor
El
centieri.
R
No
but
I
think
that's
a
good
debate.
Mr
Matt
I
think
some.
R
That's
a
great
idea
because
they
are
simply
familiar
with
Wellington,
our
police
officers,
familiar
with
the
neighborhood
officer,
but
now
we're
saying
we
wanna
and
I
if
they
understand
it
to
transfer
the
responsibility-
and
we
heard
from
the
lawyer,
which
is
more
familiar
with
the
Police
Service
Act
than
any
of
us-
is
clearly
that's
not
the
case.
So
we're
not
transfer
the
responsibility
of
quality
to
any
other
police,
because
under
the
Police
Service
Act,
even
any
other
police
who
does
something
wrong,
is
still
the
responsibility
of
the
Ottawa
Police
to
deal
with
it.
R
So
we
had
many
G's
before
we
had
that
visitor
from
the
United
States
President.
We
have
police
officers
from
over
all
over
the
country.
At
the
end
of
the
day,
the
responsibility
was
with
the
city
model
of
police,
so
I
I'm
in
support
of
the
motion.
Presumably
that's
the
tend
to
to
to
help
relieve
the
police
officer.
Right
now
are
on
on
volunteer.
R
H
My
old
career
here
this
just
in
the
prime
minister,
is
about
to
speak
in
the
House
of
Commons
on
the
Convoy
protest.
That's
momentarily!
Okay.
Let's
hope
he
can
say
something
that
might
help
us
diffuse.
This
thanks.
C
Excuse
me
Council,
you
have
nothing
else
to
add.
Counselor
me
in.
A
I
I
think
the
concern
is,
you
want
to
have
people
who
know
the
neighborhood
in
the
neighborhood.
You
want
the
cops
that
know
the
community
and
the
community,
so
the
question
they
have
to
you
as
we
go
back
and
forth,
and
this
do
you
really
care
who's
sitting
at
the
top
of
the
pile
and
giving
the
direction
as
long
as
the
bodies
around
the
precinct,
our
non-ottawa
police
and
the
bodies
in
your
community
are
Ottawa
Police.
Q
Yeah,
that's
all
thanks.
Thanks
Council
right,
bye,
I
think
the
motion
is
pretty
clear
and
I've
been
saying
it
for
over
a
week
and
my
residence
I
can
tell
you
are
begging
for
this.
Q
Resources
follow
and
the
focus
goes
there.
We
even
today's
update.
We
talked
about
a
parking
lot.
We
talked
about
moving
trucks
off
Wellington.
We
talked
about
Confederation
Park,
which
are
all
important,
but
there
was
nothing
about
Kent,
Street
Apartments,
where
diesel
every
night
is
pumping
into
people's
bedrooms.
There
was
nothing
about
lisker
Street
and
how
dangerous
it
is
right
now
to
walk
down.
There
is
nothing
about
what's
happening
at
bank
and
Somerset.
There
was
nothing
about
Bank
Street.
There
was
nothing
about
how
people
are
just
being
terrorized
in
their
neighborhood.
Q
It's
not
the
focus,
so
the
motion
simply
says
I
think
it's
pretty
clear
and
I.
The
last
line
does
recognize
that
there
are
jurisdictional
details
to
be
worked
out.
Surely
there
are
brighter
Minds
than
mine
who
can
figure
that
out
or
we're
all
in
trouble,
but
essentially
it
is
have
the
RCMP
responsible
for
the
safety
and
the
and
the
security
of
what
is
happening
in
that
non-residential
area.
Q
I,
don't
care
what
the
number
is.
Eighteen
hundred
thousand
ten
thousand
like
at
this
point,
the
numbers
almost
are
meaningless
to
me.
Unless
it's
done
properly,
I
just
want
the
focus
for
our
local
police
to
be
in
the
residential
areas
and
to
relieve
them
of
that
and
allow
the
RCMP
to
focus
on
what's
happening
in
and
around
the
precinct,
because
the
RCMP
aren't
gonna
I
mean
how
long
will
people
have
to
wait
in
this
neighborhood
for
the
RCMP
to
get
around
to
understanding
that
we've
got
people
actually
living
downtown
when
it's
taken
11
days?
Q
For
this
conversation
to
even
be
happening,
people
are
watching
this
in
disbelief.
They've
been
they've,
been
begging
for
us
to
like
Focus
to
do
something
for
residents.
That's
all
we're
asking
for
I
think
that
the
the
motion
is
clear,
RCB,
it's
not
to
say,
there's
no
Ops
with
the
RCMP
on
the
hill,
it's
about
just
pulling
it
apart,
so
that
they
have.
They
have
that
responsibility
here
and
we
are
in
our
our
neighborhoods
I'm,
just
not
sure
that
I
can
be
any
clearer.
Thank
you.
No.
I
And
no
and
thank
you
for
that
and
and
I'm
fully
supportive
of
your
motion
and
if
we
can
get
the
local
police
into
the
local
communities
and
give
some
peace
and
comfort
to
your
to
your
residents,
absolutely
100
supportive
of
emotion.
So
thank
you
for
bringing
out.
C
Okay,
so
on
the
motion
carried
carried
offense
descent
sent
by
councilor
shirelli
all
right.
Thank
you.
Our
next
motion
is
by
councilor
Fleury
signed
by
councilor
McKinney.
We
have
about
I
think
five
more
motions
to
go.
Councilor
Fleury,
if
you'd
like
to
bring
in
therefore
be
it
resolved
and
the
floor
is
yours.
J
Yes,
Mr
Mayor
if
it
could
be
added
on
the
screen.
Basically,
the
bylaw
yeah,
therefore
be
it
resolved
that
staff
and
bile
on
regulatory
Services
consider
making
an
application
for
a
set.
Find
increase
for
offenses,
as
set
out
in
the
above
mentioned
bylaws
for
more
effective
deterrence
at
a
thousand
dollars
per
offense,
as
provided
for
under
the
provincial
offenses
act,
and
be
it
further
resolved
that
these
set
fines
remain
in
place
during
the
Declaration.
A
declared
state
of
emergency.
D
C
Yeah,
just
on
that
I
think
because
I
mentioned
it
in
my
opening
remarks,
we've
already
got
the
some
of
these
carried,
so
this
just
adds
I
believe
the
open
air
open
air
fire
bylaw,
so
carried
carried
okay
carried
next
is
councilman
by
councilor
McKinney
vehicle
occupation
in
the
core.
If
you
can
go
to
the
therefore
be
it
resolve,
please
counselor
sure
this
is
all
about
Towing
Vehicles
out
of
the
residential
area
in
the
core,
therefore,
therefore
be
resolved.
C
For
the
result
that
staff
advised
Council
daily
on
the
status
of
enforcement
activities
and
then
that
number
in
nature
of
tickets
issued
point
of
order.
Mr
Mayor
point
of
order,
point
of
order.
Doesn't
this
come
awfully
close
to
directing
the
police?
What
to
do
in
this
situation?
C
Mr
city
solicitor,
Mr
Mayor.
The
motion
itself
does
not
direct
the
police.
It
is
directed
at
bylaw
Services.
It
is
also
sorry
I
meant
peace
officers.
C
I
think
it
would
be
a
concern
if
Council
was
directing
vital
services
to
particular
vehicles,
or
something
like
that.
That
is
where
the
the
direction
of
councils
tends
to
get
problematic.
C
I
think
the
the
the
motion
as
drafted
is
a
motion
of
support
and
doesn't
require
vote
by
law
enforcement
to
exercise
their
discretion
in
any
particular
way.
Appreciating
that
there
may
be
instances
where
they
they
simply
cannot,
but
they
may
require
police
assistance.
So
from
my
standpoint,
I
I
don't
see
a
legal
concern
with
this
one.
C
Motion
carry
that
update.
Next
is
the
after
action
review
by
councilor
Hubley,
signed
by
councilor
Tierney,
there's
an
amendment
by
councilor,
Menard
and
leaper
that
the
CPS
be
the
committee
that
oversees
it
versus
Hubley
Tierney
wanting
fedco,
so
Council
Hubley.
If
you
want
to
introduce
your
motion,
please
thank
you.
Mr
Mayor.
Yes,
this
is
a
motion
to
produce
a
report
that
will
look
at
all
the
good
and
the
bad
and
the
pre-planning
the
deployment
during
the
event,
every
aspect
that
we
want.
C
We
purposely
structured
the
emotion
so
that,
hopefully
we
could
all
support
the
motion
and
anybody
that
wants
to
can
add
to
the
annex,
which
will
be
the
questions
that
we
asked
to
have
answered
within
the
report.
That'll
be
a
living
document.
The
per
reason
we
chose
fedco
was
because
our
own
governance
report
that
I
believe
got
a
hundred
percent
support,
says
that
when
it
crosses
over
multiple
jurisdictions
like
this,
it
becomes
a
Fed,
fedco
responsibility.
C
So
I
I
answered
councilman,
Menard
and
I
said
I
think
it
should
still
return
to
to
fedco
to
meet
the
governance
requirement,
but
there's
nothing
stopping
us
from
also
Distributing
it
out
to
any
other
committee.
C
We're
looking
for
the
police
board
to
be
involved
in
this,
so
I'm
quite
sure,
I,
don't
want
to
speak
for
the
chair
of
the
police
department.
I
would
think
she
would
probably
want
a
copy
of
this
report
tabled
at
her
committee
as
well.
You
know,
there's
it
may
end
up
showing
up
at
multiple
committees.
There's
going
to
be
a
Transit
component
to
this,
for
example.
So
I
would
hope
that
we
can
come
together
vote
for
the
most
question
as
it's
written.
C
If
you
need
an
amendment
in
there
to
say
that
we're
going
to
send
it
out
to
the
different
committees,
then
I
would
see
that
as
friendly,
but
I
would
not
change
it.
Moving
from
fed
go
to
cpsc.
Thank
you.
Mr
Mayor,
okay,
councilor,
harder,
I'm,
calling
the
question
to
be
put.
Okay.
Shall
the
question
be
put
I
just
have
the
one
quick
thing
there
and
that's
just
I
support
it
going
to
committees.
That's
fine
I
mean
we
can.
C
It
isn't
the
way
it
works
mayor.
You
know
that
the
question
we
have
to
vote
on
the
question:
Shelby
Carrie
right
so
on
on
the
hugely
tyranny
motion.
I,
understand,
councilor,
Menard
you're,
not
moving
your
Amendment
anymore,
but
I
think
Hugh
Allen
had
I
reached
out
to
Alan,
and
he
mentioned
that
yeah
he's
happy
with
it
going
to
other
committees.
C
So
for
me,
that's
that's
friendly
enough
as
long
as
we
can
get
it
to
the
Committees
that
need
to
talk
about
this
and
I
talked
to
the
clerk,
and
it
seems
like
the
overview
of
most
of
those
items
in
the
annex
is
cpsc.
So
as
long
as
it
can
go
to
cpsc
as
well,
I
think
we're
fine,
but
the
majority
of
those
Annex
issues
are
directly
CPS
C
issues.
So
as
long
as
that's
friendly,
counselor
Hubley,
then
great
okay
on
the
Hubley
tyranny
motion.
C
Next
is
counselor
King
second,
by
councilor
McKinney,
condemnation
of
hate
at
occupation,
councilor
King,
please
with
the
therefore
be
it
resolved.
Thank
you
yorosha.
As
we
know,
during
this
occupation,
our
community
has
had
to
deal
with
an
extreme
level
of
harassment
and
discrimination.
The
level
of
extremism,
racism,
intolerance
has
been
unconscionable,
we
see
the
parading
and
or
we
saw
the
parading
of
Confederate
flags,
swastikas,
yellow
stars
of
David,
along
with
the
desecration
of
rainbow
Flags.
C
True
Freedom
requires
the
health,
Safety
and
Security
of
everyone
in
our
communities,
not
only
for
those
who
have
the
loudest
Voice
or
the
privilege
to
take
up
space.
Many
of
the
illegal
occupiers
have
repeatedly
claimed
to
be
peaceful,
while
doing
nothing
to
eliminate
the
prevalence
of
hate
symbols
at
their
occupation.
C
The
threat
of
violence
is
a
violent
act
in
and
of
itself,
and
all
of
these
symbols
represent
beliefs
that
are
inherently
violent
towards
marginalized
groups.
Confederate
flags,
yellow
stars
of
David
and
swastikas
are
a
rallying
cry
to
racist,
homophobic,
xenophobic
extremists,
encouraging
Prejudice
ideology
that
hateful
ideology
is
not
welcome,
nor
encouraged
in
Ottawa
the
nation's
capital
of
the
world's
most
Multicultural
country.
Colleagues,
I
ask
you
to
join
in
standing
with
our
marginalized
citizens,
who
are
being
repeatedly
traumatized
by
this
hateful
imagery.
C
By
supporting
this
motion
as
elected
representatives
of
Ottawa,
we
have
a
responsibility
to
declare
in
the
strongest
terms
that
this
is
false.
These
symbols
will
not
be
tolerated
in
our
city,
therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
Ottawa
city
council
unequivocally
condemned
the
racism
and
anti-Semitism
and
discrimination
experienced
by
the
black
Jewish
Muslim
racial
advice
and
members
of
the
lesbian,
gay,
bisexual,
transgender,
queer
questioning,
intersex
communities
in
the
strongest
terms.
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor.
C
Thank
you
very
much.
Counselor
heads
up
carried
our
last
motion
that
I'm
aware
of
as
moved
by
councilor
me
and
second
by
counselor,
McKinney
counselor
me
and,
if
you'd
like
to
introduce
yes.
Thank
you
I
worship.
This.
This
motion
simply
is
asking
that
we
examine
a
possible
tool
that
would
give
us
more
Authority.
We
we
haven't
at
this
stage
of
the
confrontation
protest
downtown.
C
We
haven't,
asked
for
any
additional
powers
to
step
in
and
to
take
any
decisive
actions,
but
I'm
not
saying
that
that's
an
oversight,
but
I
would
like
us
to
take
a
look
at
what
we
could
possibly
Avail
ourselves
of.
If
we
should
need
it,
and
that
is
the
emergencies
act.
This
is
federal
legislation
that
is
could
be
enacted
in
a
situation
like
we're
facing
right
now.
It
authorizes
The
Taking
of
special
temporary
measures
to
ensure
the
safety,
the
security
during
an
emergency,
and
we
are
facing
an
ongoing
threat.
C
We're
seeing
that
these
protests
and
confrontations
are
springing
up
across
the
country.
I
think
it's
a
good
idea
for
us
to
examine.
If
what
we
could
Avail
ourselves
off
here
would
make
make
sense,
maybe
here
and
elsewhere
in
the
country,
just
some
of
the
things
that
we
could
see
here.
The
authority
to
regulate
traffic
within
specific
areas
just
give
us
the
power
to
distribute
essential
Services
elsewhere.
C
Emergency
payments,
another
one
or
you
know-
provide
fines
of
up
to
five
thousand
dollars.
I'm
not
saying
that
we
ask
for
the
power
to
enact
the
emergencies
act,
but
I
would
like
us
to
explore
whether
or
not
this
could
be
a
possibility.
That's
all
I'm
doing
it
with
this.
Thank
you.
So
a
question.
Do
our
city,
solicitor
or
Deputy
Bell
I'm
not
familiar
with
the
the
federal
emergencies
Act?
Is
this
one
step
towards
calling
in
the
Army?
C
Is
this
what's
required,
I'm
not
clear
on
what
we
would
be
voting
for
and
what
the
implications
are
for
this
particular
can
I
just
say
that
this
is
not
the
word
measures
act.
This
is
this.
That
was,
you
know,
taken
off
the
books,
but
this
is.
This
is
a
step
down
from
that
it
it's
not
as
as
a
tough
there's
very
little
mention
of
military,
but
that
does
give
them
more
power.
C
C
I
would
note
that
the
federal
emergencies
act
and
I
think,
and
there
are
a
number
of
sections.
The
one
I
think
that's
like
the
most
applicable
would
be
the
Declaration
of
what's
called
a
public
order.
Emergency
does
provide
additional
Authority
in
the
federal
government
to
to
make
orders
regulating
certain
things.
Public
assemblies
and
things
like
that.
I
would
note
that
the
federal
emergencies
act
can
be
invoked
only
where
the
scope
of
the
emergency
extends
beyond
the
borders
of
one
Province
and
requires
consultation
with
the
attorneys
general
of
the
any
other
provinces
affected.
C
So
it
tends
to
be
a
a
certainly.
It
would
be
a
slow
process.
C
I
understand
that
those
those
discussions
are
comprehensive
and
largely
directed
at
ensuring
that
the
the
emergency
that
is
sought
to
be
addressed
exceeds
the
capacity
of
the
province
to
deal
with
I
I
would
know
I'm
in
the
event
that
council
is
seeking
The
Authority
in
somebody
it
would
not
be
the
authority
in
the
municipal
Council
I
would
note
that
the
the
powers
that
are
available
to
the
federal
government
under
their
own
emergencies
act
are
largely
replicated
in
the
provincial
emergencies
act
and
you
know,
as
I
said,
you
know,
that
was
the
legislation
that
the
the
provinces
relied
on
to
enact
orders
to
to
address
the
covid
pandemic,
for
example,
and
I.
C
Think
in
the
grand
scheme,
the
the
federal
government
has
certainly
demonstrated
a
a
reticence
from
involving
itself.
We
heard
that
earlier
today
and
just
on
the
last
Point,
the
the
Declaration
of
an
emergency,
whether
it
be
federal
or
provincial,
is.
It
is
really
not
a
step
towards
the
calling
out
the
military
that
would
be
under
the
the
presumably
under
the
National
Defense
Act,
which
involves
the
essentially
a
petition
or
a
requisition
by
the
Attorney
General
of
the
province.
C
To
the
federal
government,
the
minister
of
National
Defense,
to
assist
the
local
authorities,
the
Civil
Authorities
and
again
I
think
the
the
federal
government
has
been
has
been
quite
clear
that
it
is
not
in
a
position,
certainly
as
things
stand
to
condemn
that
they
are
considering
invoking
anything
that
would
that
would
see
the
deployment
of
the
military
in
in
the
city
of
Ottawa.
C
C
So
thank
you,
Mr
Mayor,
in
in
our
review
of
all
the
different
options
we
had.
This
is
something
we
did
briefly
look
at
and
it
wasn't
something
that
we
were
canvassing
at
this
time
we
provided
a
full
list
yesterday
of
the
resources.
We
believe
that
we
need-
and
this
wasn't
a
piece
that
we
included
in
that
so
we'll
we'll
go
to
a
vote
but
councilor
man.
Would
you
wish
to
withdraw
it
because
there
does
not
seem
to
be
the
the
request
from
our
Professionals
in
the
police
department.
C
I
would
just
like
to
clarify
I'm,
not
asking
that
this
be
enacted.
I
would
like
us
to
have
to
have
to
discuss
and
examine
at
some
point.
Maybe
this
could
be
requested.
We
are
seeing
a
lot
of
different
provinces
being
involved,
getting
involved
in
in
protests
and
there's
convoys
Crossing
provincial
lines
that
there
may
be
a
time.
I
would
just
like
us
to
be
prepared.
That's
simply,
that's
simply
what
I'm
asking
okay
counselor
harder?
C
Yes,
mayor,
I
think
that
the
I'm
calling
the
question
please,
okay,
shall
the
question
be
put
carried
carried
on
the
animals
on
the
motion,
yays
and
nays.
C
C
Then
that
would
be
12
years,
12
Nays,
so
that
loses
all
right
motion
to
rise
and
Report
councilor
Cloutier,
please
seconded
by
counselor
Kitts.
C
Yeah,
thank
you
so
much.
C
C
The
following
bylab
be
read
in
past
to
confirm
the
proceedings
of
the
council
meeting
of
February
7
2022
adopted,
adopted
counselor
meeting
of
February
7th
2022.
I
apologize.
Thank
you.
We
actually
had
a
number
of
directions
and
inquiries.
My
apologies
so
we'll
hold
off
on
the
adjournment.
Councilor
Tierney
has
a.
C
Is
it
a
dry?
It's
an
inquiry,
councilor
Tierney,
it
is
inquiring.
Cuba,
brief
and
I
know
our
wonderful
clerk
staff
will
put
that
up
on
the
screen
and
apologize
to
my
members
of
council
before
on
eating
a
super
hot
courage.
Jenny
made
me
tonight
and
I
didn't
realize.
My
mic
was
off
before
I'll.
Just
wait
for
the
this
is
based
on
the
conversations
that
took
place
today,
giving
that
the
towing
companies
with
City
contractual
obligations
were
not
able
available
during
the
February
2022
city
of
Ottawa
occupation.
C
What
immediate
measures
can
the
city
of
City
take
to
sole
source
alternative
provisions
of
service?
What
are
the
ramifications
for
the
city
Contracting
companies
which
fall
fail
to
meet
those
contractual
obligations
and
how
can
this
be
avoided
in
the
future?
Thank
you
very
much
to
my
colleagues.
Okay,
thank
you.
Next,
we
have
direction
from
counselor
El
centieri,
please
thank
you,
Mr
Mayor,
and
we
didn't
talk
about
it
earlier,
Mr
Mayor,
in
your
talks
with
various
Federal
and
provincial
ministers.
C
Oh
there's,
it
is
on
the
screen.
Now.
Would
you
would
you
please
ask
them
to
vote,
consider
and
then
appreciate
that
the
cars,
regular
trucks
and
transport
trucks,
as
well
as
most
fun
vehicle
Etc,
should
not
mix
with
public
demonstrations
and
and
pedestrian
demonstrator
due
to
the
various
possibility
of
harm
to
the
protester
and
everyone
and
anyone
in
the
vicinity
of
the
demonstration
as
well.
All
no
Canadian
have
constitutional
right
to
free
speech
and
and
object
to
any
action
behind
undertaken
by
the
federal
provincial
and
municipal
government.
C
We
also
know
that
peaceful
protests
are
the
Hallmark
of
democratic
country.
However,
we
must
always
try
to
provide
the
safety
environment
of
such
a
demonstration.
Mr
Mayor,
we'll
talk
about
this
before
and
and
I'm
hoping
in
your
discussion
with
both
levels
of
government.
You
know
we
can
create
something:
greater
should
not
be
mixed
in
in
any
demonstration
in
the
future
and
I
hope
both
levels
of
government
they
will,
they
will
accept,
or
they
will
change
the
ruler
than
something
like
this.
Now.
C
C
The
council
should
be
aware
of
what
options
are
available
for
Council
to
investigate
further
can
staff.
Please
advise
members
of
Council
of
the
options
available
by
the
council
meeting
on
February
23rd
for
Council
to
subject
to
scrutiny,
investigation
or
public
review.
The
handling
of
this
protest
come
occupation
in
our
Urban
core
by
the
chief
of
police.
Thank
you
and
I'm
glad
you
put
in
it's
by
February
23rd.
So
it's
not
for
this
week's
meeting.
Exactly
yes,
okay!
C
So
thank
you.
I'll
change!
Okay!
So
we'll
go
back
to
the
confirmation,
bylaw
counselor,
Cloutier
and
kits.
Please.
C
Confirmation

it
all
Mr
Mayor,

extraordinary
pressing
