A
We
are
currently
broadcasting
on
zoom
and
live
streaming
on
YouTube,
even
with
this
meeting
is
being
held
electronically,
I
want
to
call
them
that
there
is
a
possibility
of
checking
purpose
of
our
duties
in
the
event
of
any
discussions.
I

just
asked
and
everyone
remain
patient
as
we

A
I
will
also
note
that,

The

Labor
Relations
matters
and
public
security
labs
I
will
now
to
speak.
The
confirmation
of
the
resendence.
B
A
Thank
you.
Moving
now
to
iPhone
screen
confirmation
of
the
minutes,
I'm
asking
that
the
boards
confirmed
the
minute
number
85
of
the
24th
of
July
2023
as
well
as
minutes
number
1860,
the
25th
of
August
2012..
The
motion
is
that
the
Ottawa
Police
Services
Board
confirm
minutes
number
85
of
the
20
461
meeting
and
then
it's
number
86
of
the
25th
of
July
special
reason
of
the
25th
of
August
during
respectful
meeting
as
a
minute
to
confirmed,
confirmed.
A
Okay,
moving
on
members
of
the
board
to
community
meeting
you're
waiting,
that's
the
defect
to
provide
a
an
update
with
respect
to
the
policy
and
governance
committee
moving,
but
I
will
provide
enough
an
update
on
the
committee,
the
finance
and
opportunity
needed.
The
graph
minutes
are
noted
on
noted
for
September
7th
2023,
and
under
this
we
had
an
update
on
the
health
facility
project
as
well
as
a
budget
officers
and
as
strategic
passing
plan
for
the
Police
Service.
A
D
A
coalition
of
community
groups
and
individuals
are
suing
the
Ottawa
Police
Services
Board
for
violating
their
right
to
freedom
of
expression
guaranteed
under
the
charter.
Canadian
Charter
of
Rights
and
Freedoms,
the
Coalition
filed
a
claim
with
Ottawa
small
claims
court
on
August,
the
9th
seeking
27
500
in
Damages.
D
They
claim
alleges
that
the
actions
of
the
board
limit
both
the
manner
and
content
of
expression
of
the
plaintiff's,
contrary
to
section
2B
of
the
charter,
which
grants
all
Canadians
freedom
of
thought,
belief,
opinion
and
expression.
These
limits
include
the
board
refusing
to
allow
for
virtual
public
delegations
after
it
resumed
its
in-person
meetings
in
March.
2022
has
covid-19
restrictions
East.
D
The
board
then
passed
a
motion
at
its
February
27
2023,
meaning
that
a
limited
delegations
to
one
hour
for
all
delegations
combined
when
there
had
been
no
limit
before
B
limited
delegations
to
three
minutes.
If
more
than
12
people
register
to
speak
during
the
hour,
C
prioritize
delegates
who
have
not
spoken
in
the
last
three
months
and
the
required
delegates
to
submit
their
comments
in
writing
beforehand.
D
The
suit
also
cites
the
board
voting
unanimously
at
its
June
23rd
2023
meeting.
To
deny
613-819
block
Hub
coordinator
Robin
Brown
the
right
to
deliver
his
delegation,
saying
it
was
quote
inappropriate
in
the
way
it
characterized
board
chair
and
Dr
Gail
Beck
that
can't
approved
Brown's
delegation
prior
to
the
meeting
as
per
board
policy.
D
The
group
plaintiffs
are

D
Some
quotes.
This
board
has
imposed
escalating
restrictions
on
public
delegations
to
silence
any
criticism
of
the
board
and
the
auto
Police
Service
said
613-819
block
Hub
coordinator
Robin
Ram
next
quote
the
recent
decision
from
the
board
to
severely
limit
delegations
and
is
not
an
isolated
incident,
but
a
pattern
says
Sam,
Hirsch
or
resident
of
whatever,
who
has
also
spoken
at
the
Ottawa
Police
Services
Board.
On
a
number
of
occasions.
A
B
Thanks
very
much
so
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
this
evening.
It's
my
first
time
at
Police,
Services
Board,
so
I
should
probably
start
with
an
introduction.
My
name
is
Wilson
Lowe
I'm,
the
city
councilor
for
award,
24,
Bar,
Haven,
East,
Marty
and
Kathy
know
me,
as
do
some
other
people,
so
War
24
bar
Havanese
is
the
community
in
which
the
future
South
facility
will
be
located.
B
You
know
the
Ops
plays
a
vital
role
in
ensuring
our
residents
are
safe
in
the
city,
their
neighborhoods,
their
homes
and
Bar
Haven
and
Riverside
South.
The
rural
South
have
a
population
that
exceeds
that
of
Kingston
as
the
and
as
those
communities
continue
to
grow
and
evolve.
So
too
should
its
Police
Service
officers
and
staff
who
work
around
the
clock
to
ensure
the
Ops
can
carry
out
its
Mission
deserve
facilities
that
are
up
to
date
and
that
meet
that
the
needs
of
modern
policing.
B
B
I'm
also
grateful
for
the
communication
provided
by
staff.
Managing
the
project,
including
several
opportunities
to
learn
more
about
the
site
and
the
facility,
and
although
it
would
not
increase
the
number
of
officers
dedicated
to
barhaven,
at
least
not
in
the
short
term,
The
increased
and
permanent
police
presence
will
add
a
layer
of
safety
and
bring
long-awaited
Services
provided
by
the
police
closer
to
your
residence.
That
goes
without
mentioning
the
economic
benefits
of
bringing
a
few
hundred
well-paying
jobs
to
the
area
plus
partnership
opportunities
with
nearby
community
stakeholders
like
retirement
homes
and
local
schools.
B
So
I
just
want
to
quickly
thank
Chief,
Stubbs,
deputy
chief
Bell
members
of
the
opsb
for
ensuring
this
project
and
Ottawa
is
a
growing
Southern
communities.
Don't
get
left
behind.
It's
a
naturally
beautiful
site
and
I
really
hope
that
all
the
people
who
work
there
in
the
future
can
can
take
full
advantage
of
it.
E
Thank
you
very
much
and
thank
you
for
your
delegation
tonight,
counselor
low.
Of
course,
we
this
board
earlier
this
year,
voted
to
unpause
the
Strategic
plan
refresh
that
would
allow
the
building
of
of
this
facility
the
implications
of
pause
having
paused.
It
contributed
to
millions
and
millions
and
millions
of
dollars
in
cost
escalations.
So
we're
happy
to
see
it
go
again
and
stop
being
a
an
Inca
control.
The
costs,
while
we
can,
the
impacts
of
those
delays
were,
were
significant
to
the
finances.
E
E
B
There's
been
General
concerns
about
construction,
as
you
know,
comes
with
every
single
project
that
happens
anywhere.
You
know,
noise,
vibrations
and
all
of
that
stuff,
but
I
know.
Staff
at
the
Ops
have
been
very
communicative,
both
with
me,
as
well
as
the
residents
to
to
ensure
that
the
impacts
to
their
properties
are
minimal,
so
I'm,
very
I
am
thankful
for
that
and
I
do
appreciate
them
involving
me
in
in
that
process.
B
I
I
think
you'll
see
in
the
report
that
I
have
also
offered
my
support
and
assistance
in
connecting
residents
with
the
Ops.
Should
there
be
issues
in
the
future
as
well
as
just
just
so
that
they
can
be
kept
in
the
loop
with
construction
activities,
especially
once
the
pile
driving
starts,
which,
which
I
think
will
be
the
most
disruptive
portion
of
the
work
there?
B
There
is
a
lot
of
relief
that
this
project
is
finally
going
ahead,
because
a
lot
of
people
who
bought
in
the
area
bought
with
the
idea
that
the
Ops
will
be
building
something
there.
And-
and
you
know,
this
project
has
continually
been
scoped
up
and
into
something
bigger
than
just
a
police
Detachment,
which
is
why
the
costs
have
have
gone
up.
But
but
like
a
lot
of
these
Services
like
the
Collision,
especially
the
Collision
Reporting
Center
people
do
have
to
go
pretty
far
away
for
it
from
the
south.
B
E
B
This
is
a
sliding
one
to
ten
scale.
I'd
probably
put
it
in
like
a
9.25,
okay,
that'll
always
be.
You
know
there
will
always
be
opposition
whatever,
but
but
I
I.
You
know
this
project
is,
is
long
awaited,
it's
been,
you
know,
we've
waited
for
it
for
almost
a
decade,
and
you
know
it's
not
just
bar.
Even
it's
Riverside
South,
it's
the
rural
area.
The
chief
has
spoken
to
using
the
South
facility
as
a
headquarters
for
for
the
southern,
the
future
southern
district,
and
it's
it's
a
way
to
improve.
E
A
A
F
Yes,
let
me
update
you
on
the
PNG
committee
from
the
meeting
from
August
1st,
the
committee
met
on
August
1st
to
discuss
four
items.
We
received
a
briefing
on
use
of
force
from
the
service
in
keeping
with
an
outstanding
board
motion.
Much
of
the
information
presented
at
the
committee
is
included
as
part
of
item
8.16
on
the
agenda.
F
We
also
discussed
proposed
changes
to
board
policy
ga1
board
member
job
description.
The
revised
policy
was
before
the
board
for
approval
this
evening.
This
review
was
as
a
result
of
one
of
the
recommendations
from
the
auditor
general
and
to
Convoy
response.
The
committee
also
reviewed
some
changes
to
board
policy,
CR
17
major
events.
However,
we
directed
the
executive
director
to
work
on
some
further
amendments
with
the
assistance
of
Ops
legal.
F
We
felt
there
were
some
aspects
from
Paul,
simply
Sports
policy
that
were
worth
including,
and
finally,
the
committee
discussed
an
item
referred
to
it
by
the
human
resources
committee
pertaining
to
board
resourcing
the
committee
was
supportive
of
the
recommendations
coming
out
of
the
HR
and
the
executive
director
continues
to
work
on
developing
through
related
Staffing
plan
Kerbeck.
This
concludes
my
update
from
PNG
on
August
1st.
A
Thank
you
very
much
member,
so
I'm
going
to
be
released
the
most
important
for
the
board,
first
of
all,
with
respects
to
the
policy
and
governance
committee.
If
that's
limited
dimensions
are
included
in
your
classes
that
the
Ottawa
Community
Services
Board,
receives
its
items
for
internet
services.
Item
is
used.
A
A
A
A
H
A
G
A
A
A
G
A
Contingency,
yes
of
HSC,
to
contact
your
broccoli's
construction
is
so
the
main
construction
of
the
park
facilities
and
freeze
the
delegates.
The
authority
to
the
chief
of
police
to
avoid
contact
women
for
all
remaining
project.
Related
activities
required
to
deliver
the
fellowship
building
projects
for
an
amount
lost
to
exceed
the
approved
of
this
process
budget
is
the
motion
carried.
C
C
A
C
No,
no
I
I'm
happy
to
to
have
the
police
chief
to
have
the
delegation.
That's
not
an
issue.
I
just
think
there
should
be
some
type
of
reporting
back
on
on
on
certain
contracts
that
are
approved
by
the
police,
Chief
back
to
the
board.
Now
what
whether
it
means
like
every
contract
over
a
hundred
thousand
over
five
hundred
thousand
I
just
would
like.
We
can
agree
on
a
threshold
I'm
open
to
that.
But
I
think
there
should
be
some
reporting
mechanism
back
to
the
board.
A
E
A
I
Yeah
and
very
briefly,
because
I
may
be
able
to
to
sort
of
say
we
as
part
of
delegated
authority,
we
will
report
any
contract
above
thresholds
that
exist
in
the
fap
manual
that
we'll
be
bringing
forward
back
to
the
board
on
a
regular
basis,
so
that
reporting
mechanism
already
occurs
and
exists
and
anytime
the
chief
does
exercise
the
delegated
authority.
He
will
come
back
with
a
report.
We
will
come
back
with.
A
Right,
nonetheless,
I
will
bring
that
back,
but
thank
you
again
item
8.1
public
consultation
approach
for
the
implementation
of
Bobby
womens.
It's
coming
from
the
chief
report,
members
of
the
board,
I'll
move
a
little
forward.
Do
you
want
this
to
move
forward
now
or
you
know,
can
we
hold
it
just
yeah?
A
G
A
A
A
Okay,
moving
to

word

This

from
the

but

Service

with

A
A
A
A
A
A
A
J
K
Thank
you
very
much,
hello,
everybody.
Thank
you
for
your
time
and
looking
forward
to
presenting
on
on
our
BGC
Ottawa
programming
at
the
Tomlinson
Family
Foundation
Clubhouse
this
year.
So
thanks
for
the
opportunity
and
I'm
looking
forward
to
to
presenting
you
all
of
the
great
stuff,
that's
happening
at
the
club
partially
do
the
the
funding
that
we
that
are,
that
is
provided
by
Ottawa
Police
Service.
L
K
You
know
it's.
It's
been
a
very
busy
year
at
BGC
Ottawa.
We
have
come
out
of
the
pandemic
busier
than
we've
ever
have
been
before,
and
it's
it's
it's.
It's
been
quite
a
journey
for
for
everybody
at
the
club,
so
I'm
looking
forward
to
sharing
some
of
those
experiences
with
you
and
we'll
open
up
to
any
questions
after
like
I
said,
I
can't
see
anybody,
so
I
hope
you
can
see
me
and
the
presentation.
K
So
if,
if
there's
a
question
in
the
moment,
feel
free
to
to
just
just
yell
out
so
just
who
we
serve
and
who
we
are
BGC
Ottawas
in
30
different
communities
here
in
Ottawa,
it
is.
We
are
on
track
right
now
to
have
the
busiest
year
ever
at
BGC
Ottawa.
We
are
going
to
see
right
now.
It
says
4
500
this
year.
Last
year
this
year
we
will
see
over
5,
000,
Children
and
Youth.
K
K
K
But
you
know
our
numbers
are:
are
back
to
pre-pandemic
levels,
actually
they're
above
that,
as
I
mentioned,
and
we're
really
seeing
a
huge
impact
of
of
of
everything
from
inflation
to
you
know
just
more
people
trying
to
access
Support,
Services
and-
and
that
is
no
different
at
the
Tomlinson
Club,
where
we're
seeing
you
know
a
significant
number
of
members
coming
back
and
and
and
coming
on
a
regular
basis,
so
I
would
say
going
into
next
year.
The
need
will
be
even
higher.
K
I
I
can
tell
you
that
actually
for
for
a
fact
and
yeah,
you
know,
building
back
in
2022
to
our
previous
numbers
is,
is
kind
of
what
happened
we
for
part
of
the
year.
We
we're
still
cohorting,
so
we
had
less
opportunities
for
more
kids
to
be
entering
the
spaces,
but
now
we're
back
to
our
full
numbers
and
and
just
seeing
tons
of
kids
coming
in
Children
and
Youth
coming
into
our
spaces.
K
K
In
terms
of
you
know
our
what
our
young
people
are
are
seeing
and
what
they're
experiencing
you
know
and
what
they
have
experienced,
that
there's
more
supports
needed
and
and
also
not
just
in
the
club
but
outside
of
the
club.
So
programs,
like
our
programming,
you
know,
supporting
we
supported
families
through
the
direct
yo
storm
and
and
our
hamper
programs
are
just
examples
of
some
of
the
community
external
Outreach
that
we've
done
through
our
neighborhood
ambassador
program.
K
We've
been
able
to
access
multiple
communities
and
just
provide
more
opportunities
as
well.
So
you
know
it's
the
need
is,
is
definitely
growing
and
that's
all
centered
around
you
know
creating
more
safe,
safer
spaces
for
our
staff,
for
our
members
and
for
for
the
the
BGC
community
and
as
a
whole.
So
it's
definitely
it's
been
a
fantastic
year,
but
it
was
also
a
very
challenging
one.
K
K
We,
we
definitely
have
celebrated
some
culturally
related
programs
which
which
were
fantastic,
and
then
we
also
participated
in
our
regular
program.
So
you
know
everything
from
art
and
physical
activity
and
academics
and
Leadership.
We
had
summer
day
camps
which
were
free
of
charge,
and
we
also
had
our
overnight
summer
camp
as
well,
which
was
was
running
at
the
same
time.
So
a
really
fantastic
year
filled
with
lots
of
great
amazing
memories
and,
and
certainly
one
to
it,
feels
really
good.
K
As
a
CEO
of
the
club
as
a
as
a
youth
I
was
a
member
of
the
club
and
grew
up
going
to
the
club
and
now
to
to
be
back
in
our
spaces.
The
way
that
we
want
to
be
is
really
fantastic,
so
you
know
we're
very,
very
appreciative
to
be
back
in
our
spaces
and
also
to
be
providing
this
service
to
the
community,
and
on
that
this
is
our
four
program
pillars
for
those
who
are
unaware
of
what
the
program
is.
Most
of
you
have
actually
been
to
a
club.
K
K
And
just
go
to
go
back
to
the
you
know:
youth
interactions
and
our
community
services
space.
So
we
do
have
the
neighborhood
ambassador
program,
which
is
a
partnership
with
Ottawa
Public
Health,
the
ins
team,
BGC
Ottawa,
and
you
know
we
had
18
000
interactions
in
2022.
That
number
has
grown
exponentially
in
2023.
I
can
share
that.
K
Where
you
know
the
goal
there
is
is
to
you
know:
have
someone
go
through
that
program
so
that
they're
they
don't
they're,
not
involved
in
the
justice
system
and
they
they're
able
to
go
without
having
criminal
charge?
We
had
112
interactions
last
year,
our
in
2022.
Sorry
with
that
program,
which,
which
obviously
is
a
positive
for
us.
K
K
So
I
wanted
to
highlight
that
for
you
as
well
in
this
presentation
so
before
I
get
to
questions,
I
think
the
next
piece
is
just
the
challenges
that
we're
facing,
and
there
are
some
and
more
to
come
and
I
think
you're
going
to
hear
this
from
a
lot
of
the
organizations
that
serve
the
community.
You
know,
resources
are
always
tight
and
you
know
now
with
the
challenges
that
we're
facing
they're.
H
I,
don't
have
any
questions,
I
really
just
wanted
to
say.
Thank
you
so
much
for
doing
all
that,
you're
doing
and
I'm
so
glad
to
see
this
presentation.
As
you
may
recall,
last
year,
when
you
came
to
present,
you
were
unable
to
present
prevented
from
presenting,
in
fact
so
so
glad
to
see
you
here
this
year
to
see
your
full
presentation
and
thank
you
so
so
much
I
know
you
do
great
work
and
just
keep
on
going.
A
Can
you
just
give
give
us
an
impression
of
what
kind
of
impact
you're
seeing
in
that
regard,
and
also
some
idea
of?
We
know
that
a
million
people
named
the
Canada
last
year
that
our
population,
goodbye
million
and
what
impact
that
is
having
on
your
services
there's
a
few
things
and
and
as
member
Curry
Manson.
Thank
you
very
much
to
the
work
that
you
do.
K
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much.
So
to
answer
your
first
question.
The
resourcing
needed
to
support
families
in
our
community
is
has
definitely
increased
significantly.
Training
and
development
of
our
teams
to
make
sure
that
we're
supporting
in
a
way
that
that
is
needed
is
is
is,
is
a
constant
and
you
can
look
at
every
portion
of
the
club
and
the
need
just
continues
to
grow,
and
it's
it's
as
much
a
connector
to
other
services
in
our
community,
as
you
mentioned
as
it
is.
K
What
we're
offering
and
you
know
we're
seeing
significant
impacts
around
mental
health,
we're
seeing
significant
impacts
around
food
security,
we're
seeing
significant
impacts
in
many
different
spaces
and
I.
Think
one
of
the
easiest
ways
to
tell
the
need
is
and
to
your
point
of
you
know,
changes
in
in
in
the
community
and
the
the
increasing
need
is
the
amount
of
visits
that
we're
seeing
I'm
I'm
telling
you
when
I.
K
So
you
know
we're
having
members
come
from
Orleans
in
Canada
and
Statesville
and
everywhere
else,
because
there's
just
not
enough
resources
available,
and
so
the
club
becomes
a
hub
for
that
and
then
from
there
it's
the
you
know,
supporting
families
through
you
know
the
next.
You
know
all
the
different
services
that
are
out
there.
So
you
know
our
staff
definitely
are
part
of
that
process
and
we're
glad
to
be
there,
but
we're
definitely
seeing
the
need
outweigh
the
resourcing.
E
Yes,
super
quick
question:
hi
Adam
nice
to
see
you.
Obviously
your
I
just
want
to
clarify
so
you're
here
to
present
on
the
Tomlinson
Clubhouse,
because
that's
the
one
that
you
received
support
from
from
the
Ottawa
Police
Services,
but
just
to
confirm
it
in
response
to
chair
back
question
you're.
Seeing
that
at
all
your
all
your
clubs,
then
I.
K
K
Award,
but
you
know
what
there's
a
lot
of
our
families
are
accessing
that
space
from
the
herringate
community,
but
also
all
over
this,
the
south
east
area
of
Ottawa
and
I
would
say
into
Riverside
South
into
Bar
Haven
they're
accessing
either
the
Tomlinson
club
or
the
Tiger
perks,
Club.
So
again,
I
I
can't
say
enough:
the
the
need
of
the
community
that
we're
seeing
at
the
club,
but
also
that
the
resourcing
of
those
needs
is
very
challenged.
K
H
I
just
want
to
make
one
other
comment.
You
know
how
a
lot
of
our
high
schools,
the
students
in
grade
10,
are
given
a
project
where
they
can
donate.
They
can
choose
a
charity
and
everyone
in
grade
10,
Civics
and
careers,
chooses
a
charity,
presents
it
to
the
school
and
they
compete,
and
then
the
charity
that
wins
gets
five
thousand
dollars.
Last
year
at
West
Carleton
it
was
Boys
and
Girls
Club
that
that
wanted
and
the
student
that
presented.
H
She
went
right
to
the
Boys
and
Girls
Clubs,
and
she
started
talking
to
some
of
the
staff
that
were
working
there
and
just
like
you.
So
many
of
them
had
been
a
kid
at
the
Boys
and
Girls
Clubs
and
it
was.
It
was
so
fascinating
to
see
her
presentation.
It
was
different
from
the
others,
but
just
how
many
people
continue
to
be
involved
with
boys
and
girls
club.
So
you
know,
if
that's
not
a
testament
to
it.
I
don't
know
what
it
is,
but
anyway,
I
wanted
to
make
sure
you.
K
K
A
Okay,
thank
you
very
much.
Moving
on
now
to
my
verbal
report
and
I
want
to
begin
my
verbal
reports
by
mentioning
that
yesterday,
I
had
an
opportunity
to
attend
the
46th
annual
Canadian
three
priest
and
Peace
Officers
Memorial
Vice,
chair,
Phil
hurani
was
also
in
attendance
with
me
with
the
funds.
I
was
very
touched
to
be
part
of
the
ceremony
honoring,
the
memory
of
officers
to
appeals
in
the
line
of
reading
and
appreciated,
seeing
the
large
large
number
of
the
OPF
members
on
the
hill.
A
The
ceremony
was
a
very
moving
reminder
of
the
endangers
our
officers
think
when
serving
our
community,
and
it's
including
you
know
in
a
very
Bittersweet
way,
the
most
recent
Saturday
for
an
on-duty
curriculum,
RCMP
officer,
selfless
Friday
and
on
behalf
of
the
board
of
Richmond,
stands
our
condolences
through
the
accidentally
and
the
officers
welcome
inside
the
garage
Steve.
Thank
you
to
you
and
to
all
the
members
of
the
service
for
everything
you
do.
A
Please
follow
us,
please,
with
respect
to
the
community
meeting
I've
been
having
at
the
board
special
meeting
on
August
25th
I,
provided
an
overview
of
the
state
Builders
I've
met
on
behalf
of
divorce
and
help
informed
our
strategic
planning
process.
I
noticed
that
I
am
continuing
my
Outreach
to
the
community
and
since
that
time,
I've
met
and
spoken
with
additional
stakeholders,
including
representatives
of
groups
supporting
community
members
living
with
the
disabilities
as
well
as
other
groups.
A
I've
also
had
an
opportunity
to
attend
another
meeting
of
the
community
Equity
Council
and
did
a
tour
of
a
number
of
investigative
units
of
the
OPM
where
I
was
able
to
meet
and
speak
with
several
members
of
guel
service.
I
want
to
thank
Deputy
Bell.
There
was
a
large
contingent
of
audible
movies
at
the
hospital
on
Friday,
with
first
slave
University
and
I.
Want
to
thank
him
for
introducing
the
members
I
mentioned.
A
I
also
have
an
opportunity
to
meet
with
a
former
board
member
and
a
member
of
the
publicity
request
for
the
Newton
and
the
themes
in
a
relationship
building
and
is
teaching
public
continue
to
realize
I'm
also
hearing
from
public
stakeholders
that
they
would
like
members
of
the
service
to
receive
more
awareness
and
training
on
such
things
as
disabilities
and
intersectionality,
so
that
they
are
better
as
equipped
with
the
tools
they
need.
They
need
to
access.
A
The
board
has
participated
in
two
and
round
the
facilitated
focus
groups
with
members
of
the
executive
commands
and
health
draft,
a
strategic
plan
that
can
be
shared
off
with
the
community
for
further
input
and
validation,
and
the
giraffe's
plan
will
be
presented.
As
a
software
leading
us
aboard
on
October
6th
once
presented,
we
will
be
engaging
in
further
states
of
the
consultation
on
that
plan
and
to
ensure
that
the
priorities
identified
resonate
with
the
needs
announced
of
the
community.
A
This
additional
feedback
will
be
incorporated
into
the
draft
and
we
are
currently
targeting
to
present
a
final
time
for
approval
at
our
October
23rd.
Regular
meeting
I
just
want
to
note
that
today
you
put
new
tasks
to
import
emotions
with
respect
to
the
budget
directory
and
timetable,
you
recommended
the
directions
hold
with
the
tax
increase
of
2.5
percent.
We
know
that
this
will
have
an
impact
in
future
years,
but
we
also
respect
the
direction
that
that
every
every
city,
maybe
every
three
body,
is
working
at.
A
We
also
want
to
note,
though,
in
looking
at
this
presentation,
the
importance
of
the
budget
Advanced
here.
The
city
is
growing.
I've
heard
different
things
for
mental
health,
you're,
saying
that
in
the
last
10
years
the
city
has
zoned
by
300
000
people.
That
being
the
case,
costs
are
the
minister
for
the
immunization
and
that's
something
that
Nazi
taken
into
consideration.
The
cost
of
policing
a
capital
city
are
something
that
we're
beginning
to
be
aware
of,
and
something
that
we
have
to
take
into
consideration.
A
A
J
Thank
you,
madam
chair
I
want
to
start
my
verbal
report
by
thanking
our
members
and
all
of
the
police
professionals
from
Services
across
Canada
who
attended
the
National,
Police
and
Peace
Officers
Memorial
this
past
weekend
and
as
well,
chair
back
and
vice
chair
factorani.
Thank
you
for
attending
as
well
to
pay
to
pay
your
respects.
J
J
Has
been
particularly
challenging
for
everyone
after
the
tragic
loss
of
so
many
officers,
and
it
got
even
more
challenging
last
Friday
Constable
Rick
O'brien
from
the
RCMP
was
killed
in
the
line
of
duty
in
Coquitlam
BC,
while
executing
a
search
warrant.
Two
other
officers
were
also
injured.
Of
note,
Constable
O'brien
was
from
Ottawa.
My
thoughts
are
with
his
family
and
my
former
colleagues
in
BC
at
Sunday's
event,
we
honored
the
memories
of
11
officers
that
have
died
in
the
line
of
duty
since
last
September.
That's
a
lot
of
names
to
reflect
on
within
the
year.
J
I
want
to
provide
you
with
a
brief
update
on
the
shooting
at
the
wedding
that
saw
six
injured
and
two
killed.
We
continue
to
investigate
all
the
leads
as
they
come
in.
However,
we
are
struggling
with
a
lack
of
cooperation
from
some
of
the
attendees
and
those
that
were
present.
We
urge
anyone
with
information
to
help
us
solve
this
case
to
come
forward
to
investigators.
J
J
J
In
all
of
these
shootings,
no
one
was
injured
and
we
are
thankful
for
that,
but
we
need
to
identify
those
responsible,
so
we
can
remove
those
weapons
from
our
streets.
A
shooting
over
this
past
weekend
on
Bank
Street
is
also
being
investigated.
The
victim
isn't
hospital
with
non-life-threatening
injuries.
J
We
are
heavily
involved
in
the
development
of
the
2024
draft
budget.
Deputy
chief
Bell
will
speak
more
to
that
during
the
board
meeting.
Amongst
our
priorities.
Stabilizing
our
staffing
at
the
service
is
a
priority.
Our
proposed
three-year
hiring
plan
is
a
Cornerstone
of
the
strategy
that
forecasts
a
total
of
435
sworn
members
and
120
civilians
to
be
hired.
Of
course.
Not.
All
of
this
is
growth
and
accounts
for
attrition
as
well.
Well,
the
budget
does
remain
in
development.
J
We
know
that
we
will
still
be
looking
for
efficiency
opportunities
as
we
do
every
year
for
2024,
we
have
set
an
efficiencies
Target
of
2.7
million
dollars
to
look
at
how
we
can
do
things.
Do
things
more
efficiently
and
effectively
one
of
the
top
priorities
identified
by
residents,
Community
groups
and
counselors
during
our
summer
consultation
process
was
the
desire
to
see
our
officers
more
consistently
engaged
within
their
specific
communities
and
an
ability
for
the
police
to
address
the
specific
issues
and
needs
in
the
various
Awards
across
the
city.
J
Each
ward
has
different
issues
where
different
strategies
need
to
be
applied
by
establishing
four
districts:
East-West
South
and
Central.
With
a
strong
communication
plan.
This
will
enhance
the
level
of
service
to
the
24
Awards
Acting
Superintendent
Kevin
Maloney
has
been
assigned
assigned
to
lead
this
project
and
we
expect
to
provide
you
with
ongoing
updates
as
it
progresses.
This
is
a
major
change
for
us
and
it
will
take
time
and
its
success
does
rely
on
input
from
our
board
mayor
and
Council,
our
members
and
the
community.
J
J
Last
week,
Ukrainian
president
zielinski
visited
our
nation's
capital.
We
became
aware
of
this
visit
in
late
August,
which
is
very
little
time
to
plan
and
organize
an
event
of
this
magnitude.
We
worked
very
closely
with
the
RCMP
and
stood
up
a
centralized
command
Hub
at
the
national
capital
region,
Command
Center.
We
secured
the
assistance
of
other
police
agencies,
of
which
I'm
grateful
for
their
cooperation.
J
J
Last
week,
the
one
million
person
March
also
occurred
that
added
to
our
work,
initially
a
thousand
people
both
in
favor
and
some
opposed
to
the
March
arrived
at
Wellington.
We
had
our
police
liaison
team
and
our
policing
Partners
separate
the
two
groups
to
ensure
safety
that
number
quickly
swelled
to
over
3000
people.
Within
the
hour,
three
arrests
were
made,
two
hate
related
offenses
and
one
for
cause
of
disturbance.
J
J
Other
events
in
August
and
September
required
our
attention
from
various
pride
month,
events
to
Rolling
Thunder
to
the
Army
run
to
our
own
police
memorial.
Yesterday,
the
team
delivered
and
I'll
leave
it
at
that,
but
planning
for
major
events
continues
and
I
want
to
provide
you
with
a
quick
update
on
what
we're
doing
to
ensure
a
safe
Panda
game.
On
October
1st,
our
police
liaison
teen
and
neighborhood
resource
team
officers
have
been
going
door-to-door
in
impacting
neighborhoods
to
speak
with
residents
and
advise
them
on
how
to
get
in
touch
with
us
quickly.
J
If
there
is
an
incident
that
requires
a
police
response.
This
includes
speaking
with
students
at
off-campus
housing
and
working
with
both
Carlton
and
Ottawa
University
officials
to
help
educate
their
student
body
to
help
provide
key
information.
We
have
developed
a
robust
and
responsive
social
media
campaign
to
ensure
that
all
participants
understand
the
responsibilities
for
the
event.
We
have
plans
in
place
to
increase
our
presence
in
key
areas
like
the
byword
market,
Sandy,
Hill
and
other
neighborhoods
surrounding
Carleton
University,
including
additional
officers
at
TD
place
on
The
Daily
event.
J
Impaired
driving,
we
are
seeing
a
disturbing
increase
in
the
number
of
impaired
drivers
on
our
road
within
a
one
week
period
between
September
10th
to
17th,
we
charge
24
drivers
with
impaired
relating
offenses
amongst
the
24
drivers.
One
incident
resulted
in
the
death
of
two
people
and
we
believe
alcohol
was
a
contributing
factor.
J
J
Stopped
by
our
officers
and
was
found
to
have
four
times
over
the
legal
limit
so
far
in
2023
613
drivers
have
been
charged
with
impaired
driving,
related
defenses,
which
which
will
likely
surpass
last
year's
totals
with
the
busy
holiday
season
yet
to
come.
Offenders
need
to
realize
how
dangerous
their
behavior
is
and
how
they
compromise
not
only
their
own
safety,
but
also
those
in
the
community.
The
police
will
be
out
there.
J
Looking
for
impaired
drivers
in
response
to
emotion,
brought
forward
by
counselor
Kipps
we'll
be
launching
a
new,
safe,
Exchange
program
at
our
three
main
police
stations,
where
people
can
exchange
money
and
legal
products
that
are
bought
online
and
parking
lots
near
our
police
stations
at
Elgin,
onmar
and
St
Joseph
Boulevard.
We
have
painted
bright
blue
parking
spots
where
people
can
safely
make
exchanges
for
goods
bought
or
sold
online,
while
police
will
not
be
directly
involved
at
these
exchanges,
it
adds
a
layer
of
security
to
these
types
of
transactions.
J
I
would
like
to
end
my
report
by
highlighting
some
exceptional
work
by
two
of
our
officers:
Constable
niloy,
Ahmed
and
Constable
Tristan
Bailey
organized
an
event
called
cuts
for
kids,
which
had
the
goal
of
providing
free
haircuts
for
primarily
black
youth.
Just
in
time
for
the
new
school
year
of
note,
gospel
Imad
grew
up
in
one
of
the
tougher
neighborhoods
in
Ottawa,
and
it
was
his
goal
to
change
hearts
and
Minds
about
police
in
those
communities.
J
J
There
were
prizes
won
and
the
event
was
an
incredible
success.
I
went
there
myself,
as
did
deputy
chief
Burnett,
and
we
couldn't
believe
the
high
number
of
people
that
attended
the
event.
A
number
of
our
black
officers
were
there,
and
it
was
clear
that
a
very
positive
relationship
and
Trust
exists
between
them
and
the
youth
that
attended
the
event
in
total,
more
than
200
kids
were
were
there
to
either
get
a
new
haircut
or
to
play
in
the
basketball
tournament
and
I
really
want
to
thank
the
peaky,
Barber's
employees
and
owners
for
donating
their
time.
J
M
The
first
sort
of
commendation
I
want
to
read
to
you
really
as
a
result
of
an
incident
that
occurred
in
in
Bourget
on
May
the
11th,
and
it
comes
from
the
Prescott
Russell
Emergency
Services
I'm
writing
this
letter
to
express
my
deepest
gratitude
and
appreciation
for
the
way
you
took
care
of
our
paramedics
during
a
recent
incident.
Please
accept
my
heartfelt
thanks
for
the
kindness
support
and
assistance
you
extended
to
us.
M
Your
team's
support
and
actions
have
made
a
significant
impact
that
day,
I'm,
truly
grateful
for
your
generosity
and
the
time
you
dedicated
to
our
paramedics.
In
addition,
please
extend
our
gratitude
to
Sergeant
Tim,
kowaski
and
Leslie
McCarthy,
who
were
present
that
morning,
their
warmth,
patience
and
understanding
created
a
comfortable
environment
for
our
paramedics.
M
M
The
second
accommodation
comes
from
an
individual,
a
member
of
the
public,
my
wife
and
I
live
in
Lower,
Town
and
I'm
sure
you're
aware
it's
a
complex
and
often
challenging
neighborhood
and
today,
with
no
exception,
as
we
had
a
shooting,
very
close
to
our
home.
As
my
wife
and
I
were
sitting
out
back,
we
heard
five
shots
ring
out.
M
We
immediately
called
9-1-1
I
wanted
to
take
a
moment
to
say
how
thankful
and
appreciative
we
are
for
the
rapid
and
overwhelming
response
we
received
from
the
Ops
the
dispatch
agents
who
took
my
call
was
efficient,
professional,
clear
and
concise
within
moments.
There
was
an
immediate
response
from
Ops
officers
who
quickly
sectioned
off
the
area
where
the
shooting
occurred
there
were
Cruisers
and
officers
in
place
visible
in
interviewing
Witnesses,
but
also
speaking
to
the
community
members.
M
I
went
over
to
speak
to
an
officer
briefly
and
they
provided
me
with
information
and
we're
very
sympathetic,
understanding
and
thoughtful.
Please
let
your
officers
who
were
on
scene
today
know
their
efforts
in
client
service
were
were
greatly
appreciated
in
over
20
years
of
living.
In
this
neighborhood,
my
wife
and
I
have
never
heard
gunshots.
As
you
can
imagine,
this
was
very
unsettling.
The
response
from
your
officers
made
us
feel
safe
and
secure,
knowing
that
we
were
in
a
neighborhood,
they
were
in
the
neighborhood
on
the
job
and
making
sure
that
we
were
protected.
M
We
want
your
membership
to
know
that
they
are
appreciated
and
their
presence,
dedication
and
hard
work
go
a
long
way
to
helping
the
rest
of
us
feel
safe,
secure
and
go
and
and
be
able
to
go
about
our
daily
lives
even
on
a
date
like
today,
best
wishes
to
you
and
thank
you
for
all
that
you
do
in
the
Ops
family,
just
just
a
couple
of
samples
of
the
letters
we
we
receive
on
a
daily
basis.
Thank
you,
chief.
E
Thank
you
very
much
chair
and
thank
you
to
Chief
and
deputy
chief
for
the
update
on
all
the
activities.
There
certainly
is
a
lot
going
on
and
as
somebody
who
I
feel
is
out
and
about
in
the
community,
quite
a
bit.
Blues
Fest
city
Folk
around
the
neighborhood
I've,
started
to
see
the
same
police
officers
again
and
again
at
different
events
and
as
you're
talking
about
everything
that
you've
had
to
deal
with
over
the
last
little
time
with
President
zielinski's
visit
with
the
panda
game
I'm.
E
You
know
I'm
concerned
when
we're
hearing
about
the
resource
shortages
that
exist
among
the
police
officers,
about
the
amount
of
overtime,
not
just
from
obviously
a
financial
perspective.
We'd
rather
have
permanent
officers
there,
but
about
the
impact
on
the
officers
in
terms
of
working
the
hours
that
they
are
I
know.
That's
not
a
question
that
can
be
answered
today,
but
when
we're
talking
about
budget
and
resourcing
it
is
something
that
I'd
I'd
like
to
understand
a
little
bit
better.
E
But
this
is
a
community
that
you
know
it's
not
just
you
know
we
don't
seem
to
have
any
answers
and
I
understand
that,
but
I
think
constant
communication
about
this
is
important,
given
the
magnitude
of
it,
and
you
mentioned
that
there
was
a
shooting.
You
know
in
South
Keys
this
just
this
past
Friday.
I
So
share
I
can
let
you
know
the
chief
popped
his
head
in
here.
He
had
he's,
got
to
take
a
call
right
now,
so
he's
asked
the
deputies
and
myself
to
cover
off
any
any
questions
that
existed
so
member
card
would
all
would
all
start
with
is
around
the
over
time.
What
I
can
tell
you
is.
We
do
have
an
Early
Intervention
Program,
because
I
share
your
concerns
about
having
officers.
I
Do
all
sorts
of
overtime
have
to
cancel
annual
leave,
have
court
time
and
pay
duties
on
top
of
that,
so
one
of
the
things
we
have
instituted
over
the
past
number
of
years
is
an
early
intervention
and
early
warning
program
that
tracks
a
lot
of
key
indicators
that
will
then
be
provided
to
leadership
and
direct
supervisors
of
members
if
they're
exceeding
certain
thresholds,
but
it
is
something
we
watch
and
I
do
agree
with
you.
The
stopping
stabilization
plan
will
help
to
offset
some
of
our
need
and
Reliance
on
overtime.
H
Thank
you
for
that.
I
was
going
to
say
an
overall.
Thank
you
very
much
for
all
that
work
that
when
we
were
briefed
on
all
of
the
various
demonstrations
and
what
was
to
come,
I
I
was
quite
concerned
actually
that
there
was
that
much
all
in
a
row,
but
obviously
some
amazing
coordination
and
work
by
everyone
that
we
were
able
to
get
through.
All
of
that
I
mean
I
know
the
panda
game
is
still
to
come,
but
it
is.
H
It
was
great
to
see
that
everything
went
fairly
smoothly
in
the
letters
of
commendation.
There
was
one
that
stood
out
to
me.
The
one
and
I
don't
know
of
Deputy
Burnett
wants
to
speak
to
this
because
I
just
have
a
question.
It
was
written,
I,
think
from
a
nurse
maybe
or
a
doctor,
someone
who
worked
in
a
hospital
just
saying
about
how
that
this
Constable
was
there.
When
there
was
a
knife
attack
by
a
patient
that
they
were
bringing
in
and
then
the
comment
was,
as
our
Hospital's
operations
continue
to
evolve.
H
We've
been
extremely
fortunate
to
have
this
collaborative
partnership
with
your
mental
health
unit,
and
so
I
was
just
wondering
that
comment,
your
mental
health
unit.
You
know
exactly
what
she's
referring
or
he
or
she's,
referring
to
it
says,
with
capable
constables
like
Steve,
Vanessa,
Chris
and
others.
So
I'm
wondering
if
this
is
a
standard
thing
or
specifically
something
you
know
what
that
Hospital
staff's
talking
about.
M
M
We
got
a
lot
of
accommodations
from
that
officer's
efforts
that
day,
just
based
on
the
fact
that
it
was
a
pretty
volatile
situation
and
he
was
able
to
successfully
defuse
that,
but
we
do
have
mental
health.
We
have
a
small
mental
health
unit
and
these
officers
are
very
well
versed
with
the
medical
staff
and
de-escalating
these
types
of
events.
So
that
was
a
really
good
management
of
that
particular
incident.
H
Yes,
thank
you
very
much
as
a
mother
of
a
daughter
who
works
in
an
emergency
room
Department.
She
often
will
tell
me
how
much
she
loves
it.
The
police
are
there,
whereas
you
know
we're
trying
to
make
sure
that
the
police
are
not
sitting
there
and
her
feedback
is
no
keep
the
police
there.
So
anyways
when
I
read
that
one
I
thought
I
can
just
imagine
that's
all
I
can
do
is
Imagine,
though
anyway.
Thank
you
very
much.
A
L
A
N
I
N
Thank
you
yes,
so
good
afternoon.
The
board
will
remember
that
this
is
a
work
that
needs
to
be
done
in
terms
of
our
collaboration
with
the
city
on
this,
and
so
I
will
send
it
directly
over
see
if
there's
any
questions-
and
we
do
have
Eric
Janus
here
who
is
going
to
be
providing
a
presentation
and
then
questions
after
so
over
to
you
Eric.
Thank
you.
O
Thank
you
very
much
Madam
chair
for
the
time
that
you've
provided
us
for
this
presentation,
as
well
as
members
of
the
board.
So
to
recap
my
name
is
Eric
Dennis
I'm,
the
operations
manager
for
the
communications
center
and
essentially
the
operational
lead
when
it
comes
to
the
911
transition
to
next-gen
for
the
Ops
and
I
will
be
sharing
a
quick
presentation
with
you.
O
So
essentially,
the
reason
that
we
are
here
today
is
to
cover
a
little
bit
of
what
makes
gen
911
is
because
we
are
getting
a
lot
of
questions
from
both
the
public,
as
well
as
our
members
and
several
council
members.
So
we
felt
it
important
to
have
a
discussion
and
a
presentation
with
to
the
board
to
give
the
high
level
details
as
to
what
next
year
number
one
is
as
well
as
answer
any
potential
questions
that
you
might
have
ahead
of
future
communications.
O
O
We
are
very
much
looking
at
this
as
a
a
reimagining
of
9-1-1,
and
that
is
for
all
9-1-1
centers
in
Canada,
under
about
200
to
50
of
us,
and
the
reason
that
we're
doing
this
today
and
is
that
it
was
or
is
mandated
by
the
crtc
and,
if
you're,
trying
to
visualize
what
that
means
is.
We
are
going
to
from
the
current
technology
essentially
to
a
new
voice
over
IP
and
computer-based
phones.
O
So
if
you're,
looking
at
our
911
Center,
for
example
and
you're-
wondering
what
will
that
actually
look
like
for
our
members,
it
will
be
from
going
from
a
normal
desk
phones
and
to
a
computer
space
fold.
So
this
is
only
at
the
beginning
of
next-gen
9-1-1
and
its
future
capabilities,
and
the
first
part
very
much
is
about
laying
the
first
brick
and
the
groundwork
for
the
future
capabilities
because
of
the
nature
of
the
technology.
We
are
to
expect
that
this
technology
will
continue
to
migrate
and
change
over
the
next
few
years.
O
So
this
is
in
no
way
a
project.
It
pretty
much
has
to
be
seen
as
a
program
as
we
go
forward
to
essentially
see
the
changes
going
over
the
next
few
years
from
their
current
capabilities
to
the
new
ones.
From
an
Ops
perspective,
I
can
tell
you
that
we
knew
that
this
was
coming
prior
to
this
crtc
decision
from
2017
and
start
to
engage
with
their
various
stakeholders.
O
Some
of
them
are
fairly
important
for
us
because,
as
we
look
at
the
immediate
improvements
that
we
will
see
are
very
relevant
to
our
citizens,
especially
that
we're
looking
at
your
citizens
in
CA
and
Ottawa
as
well
in
Quebec,
the
new
initial
upgrade
will
allow
for
a
better
accuracy,
which
will
mean
that
we
will
no
longer
get
compliance
and
situations
where
somebody
on
the
Quebec
side
is
being
transferred
to
Ottawa
and
vice
versa.
Because
of
the
various
limitations
of
the
current
systems.
O
That
will
also
permit
us
the
capability
of
transferring
calls
between
cities
that
are
also
a
big
challenge
that
are
often
reported.
Although
the
country
is
very
large,
technology
has
made
it
very
small
and
we
often
I
will
get
calls
from
our
local
citizens,
for
instance,
occurring
in
a
different
Province
or
even
a
different
city.
So
it
will
be
a
significant
improvement
from
the
initial
implementation
as
well
as
we
will
be
looking
at
their
roll
out
their
real-time
texting
and
we'll
be
talking
to
that.
In
a
few
minutes.
E
O
Then
we'll
continue
with
future
capabilities,
and
that
is
one
of
the
the
subject
code
that
comes
out
very
often
in
conversations
as
to
when
will
we
get
video?
When
will
we
get
texting?
When
will
we
get
pictures
coming
or
metadata
or
medical
information
that
will
come
in
the
future,
but
not
at
the
initial
rollout?
So
if
we
look
at
the
future,
it
really
is
going
to
give
us
initial
improvements,
but
we
will
see
a
lot
of
additional
capabilities
over
the
few
years.
O
Some
people
often
ask
when
will
The
Escape
abilities
be
made
available?
The
crtc
has
mandated
that
we
all
be
migrated
by
March
2025..
So
if
you
wonder,
when
should
you
expect
any
of
these
capabilities?
Current
schedule
shows
us
that
the
initial
capabilities
that
we
talked
about
would
be
by
March
2025
and
after
that
the
multimedia
information
will
vary
essentially
based
on
what
the
various
companies
provide
us
and
what
capabilities
we
can
actually
absorb
operationally
versus
between
our
various
dispatch.
O
Centers
I
want
to
take
a
quick
minute
to
talk
about
real-time
texting
because
there's
been
a
lot
of
Mis
information
out
there
and
it's
important
to
align
the
expectation
from
both
our
users
as
well
as
the
citizens.
When
we
talk
about
real-time
texting,
we
are
looking
at
a
capability
that
is
scheduled
to
go,
live
in
March
2025,
but
it
will
not
be
your
traditional
text
that
most
people
are
used
to
using
so
an
iMessage
and
SMS
or
an
MMS.
The
typical
messages
that
we
all
send
to
our
friends
and
family
and
co-workers.
O
Today,
the
capability
of
real-time
texting
will
only
occur
when
a
an
actual
voice
call
is
made
to
9-1-1,
and
it
will
be
more
like
the
old
TTY
machine.
So
the
hearing
impaired
communities
tool
that
they
were
using,
that
will
be
essentially
plain
text,
so
this
capability
will
now
allow
to
have
any
attachments
at
all,
so
a
call
will
be
made
to
9-1-1.
O
O
So
if
we
look
at
what's
the
city
of
Ottawa
landscape
looks
like
in
Ontario
in
mostly
in
Canada
also
the
city.
The
municipalities
themselves
are
identified
as
the
governing
authorities,
so
the
city's
own
9-1-1
and
the
Ascension
must
enter
into
an
agreement
with
whatever
entities
they
wish
to
be
able
to
operate.
9-1-1
now
in
Ottawa,
the
Ottawa
Police
operates
the
number
one
Bureau
on
behalf
of
the
city
under
service
level
agreements,
and
that
has
been
the
case
since
the
late
80s
when
911
went,
live
in
Ottawa.
O
Essentially,
we
started
several
years
ago
we
were
the
first
operational
users
on
the
current
technology,
so
we
migrated
our
users
to
these
computer-based
phones
that
we've
talked
about
for
a
few
minutes
and
they
limited
the
impact
on
our
staff
with
the
goal
of
making
us
next-gen
911
ready.
So
when
we
do
migrate
over
to
these
voice
over
IP
lines,
it
reduces
the
risk
to
our
operation,
as
well
as
the
impact
on
our
people.
O
We
are
looking
at
onboarding
Ottawa
fire
in
the
next
few
months
and
then
in
a
perfect
world
engaging
with
Bell
Canada,
which
is
our
911
provider.
For
us
to
migrate
to
the
official
9-1-1
lines
and
we're
hoping
to
migrate
with
that
within
the
first
quarter
of
2025.,
once
that's
completed,
essentially
the
250
911
and
send
the
centers
in
Canada
ma
must
meet
that
deadline.
And
only
then
will
we
have
the
discussions
amongst
the
technical
companies
providers
and
stakeholders
as
to
what
will
be
the
next
capabilities.
O
E
Well,
I'll
just
go
ahead.
Remember
I'm!
Sorry,
I
wouldn't
mute
it.
Oh
that's!
Okay,
yeah,
no
I
I
knew
I
need
to
go
ahead.
Thank
you
very
much
for
the
presentation
it
strikes
me.
The
Next
Generation
system
is
overwhelming
to
those
of
us
who
grew
up
with
the
world.
We
dial
phones
to
imagine
all
of
this
technology.
I
imagine
it
will
help
enhance
safety
and
you
know
improve
response
times,
but
anyway,
obviously
some
some
risks
as
well,
but
I
guess.
E
My
question
is
trying
to
understand
the
relationship
between
the
city
and
9-1-1.
Clearly
you
said
that
the
city
is
the
governing
Authority.
Are
they
there
for
the
project
sponsor,
but
is?
Are
you
acting
as
the
police
services
acting
as
the
project
manager
here
like
you're,
looking
after
the
entire
implementation
for
the
police
and
fire?
Services
did
I
understand
that
correctly.
So
if
we.
O
Look
at
what
it
means
for
the
city:
the
Ottawa
Police
is
Project
managing
its
own
migration
over
to
Next
Gen
9-1-1,
we're
onboarding
Ottawa
far
through
a
service
level
agreement,
so
by
definition
we're
project
managing
the
onboarding
of
the
technology.
We
have
to
keep
in
mind
that
next-gen
911
is
just
not
a
technology
question.
The
city
has
engaged
with
a
consultant
to
look
at
the
overall
picture
within
the
municipality
itself,
so
we
can't
just
focus
on
the
attack
between
Ottawa
fire
and
Ottawa
Police.
O
There
is
a
lot
of
additional
Tech
technology
that
must
be
put
in
place
that
is
managed
actually
by
the
city
of
Ottawa,
also
as
a
governing
Authority.
So,
yes,
we
are
managing
project
managing
the
onboarding
of
the
tech,
but
we
are
working
with
all
our
partners
to
like
a
deeper
overall
transition.
That
is
not
just
acknowledged.
It
has
implication
between
our
stakeholders,
internal
and
external,
and
how
can
we
have
a
common
Direction
and
plan
as
a
city
to
make
sure
that
we
all
get
at
their
same
place
at
the
end
of
this
process?.
H
Yeah,
thank
you.
So
I
read
the
report
and
was
looking
in
at
how
ahead
we
were
and
thinking
that
was
great.
You
know
we
were
leading
the
charge
and
then
I
realized
that
it's
not
starting
till
March
25
and
that's
when
ours
will
also
be
starting
so
well.
How
is
it
that
we
were
ahead
and
now
we're
really
just
at
the
same
as
everyone
else
or
is
everyone
else
not
going
to
be
able
to
do
it
for
March,
25th,
2025.
O
So
I
can
tell
you
that,
for
now
the
date
is
not
changing.
I
can
also
tell
you
that,
based
on
the
original
timelines,
we
should
have
had
nationally,
probably
close
to
70
or
80
911
Center
migrated
at
this
point,
and
that
has
not
happened
yet.
So
where
do
we
stand
in
the
pack
to
sort
of
answer?
Your
question
we
went
very
much
from
the
end
at
the
front.
O
End
to
I
would
tend
to
illustrate
mid-pack
at
this
point,
because
we
are
still
the
first
users
on
this
technology
that
went
in
operation,
but
we
are
essentially
migrating
to
something
extremely
complicated,
so
we
are
still
in
great
position
because
a
lot
of
these
organizations
will
have
to
go
cold
turkey
from
the
old
technology
right
down
to
the
the
step
10
essentially
of
the
process.
We
are
taking
a
progressive
approach
and
a
certain
points.
Sometimes
it's
easier.
O
It's
a
better
operationally
and
from
a
risk
management
perspective
to
take
the
proper
time
than
trying
to
rush
and
pull
you
know
over
to
new
technology
that
might
be
a
risk
to
our
operations
as
well
as
the
citizen.
So
it's
not
that
we've
fallen
behind
as
much
as
at
some
point.
I
think
people
are
just
struggling
to
catch
up
as
well
as
to
actually
cross
the
natural
condition.
H
Okay
super
thank
you
for
explaining
that
the
for
the
second
question
I
have
is
that
the
first
part
will
be
550,
000
and
then
the
second
one
it
says
will
be
less
though
the
last
the
next
cost
will
be
less
for
the
final
migration
phase
are
not
expected
to
be
as
significant.
Do
we
have
a
general
estimate
for
that,
though,.
O
And
nothing
I
think
I
can
speak
to
right
now.
The
report
is
being
submitted
by
rits
section,
which
I'm
not
part
of
so
I,
don't
need
the
operational
lead.
We
do
have
a
technical
lead,
so
if
you
require
we
can
definitely
do
a
follow-up
after
to
give
you
more
details,
but
the
the
two
part
that
you're
seeing
is
the
onboarding
of
fire
and
then
the
complete
migration
after
that
to
the
I3
or
the
next
technology.
If
you
look
after.
A
A
A
A
J
J
J
Okay,
hi
hi
Vanessa,
so
thank
you,
madam
chair
and
I
appreciate
the
the
late
addition
to
this
agenda
item.
It's
an
important
one,
as
you
know,
there'll
be
a
new
police
act
as
described
in
the
in
the
motion
that
will
be
coming
into
Force
next
year
and
there's
a
lot
of
input
and
feedback
being
compiled
by
the
government.
J
J
P
Okay,
so
just
to
get
started,
I'd
like
to
thank
you,
chair
and
members
of
the
board
for
permitting
me
to
do
this
presentation
as
a
last
minute,
Edition
I
am
pleased
to
meet
all
of
you
virtually
just
at
the
outset.
Prior
to
my
role
here
at
Ottawa
Police,
as
legal
counsel,
I
did
work
as
a
crown
prosecutor
and
I
prosecuted
many
sexual
assault
trials.
I
I
was
quite
shocked
when
I
started.
P
As
all
of
you
know,
the
community
safety
and
policing
Act
is
anticipated
to
come
into
force
on
or
about
April
2024,
and
the
Ops
right
now
has
had
an
opportunity
to
provide
feedback
specifically
on
the
regulations
for
disciplinary
hearings
and
to
provide
submissions
on
the
regulations
regarding
the
Ontario,
Police
arbitration
and
adjudication
commission.
This
feedback
is
due
October
10th
and
October
2nd,
respectively.
P
Our
society
has
yet
to
come
to
grips
with
just
how
deep-rooted
these
issues
truly
are
and
how
devastating
their
consequences
can
be
without
a
doubt,
eliminating
myths,
stereotypes
and
sexual
violence
against
women
is
one
of
the
more
pressing
challenges
we
face
as
a
society.
While
serious
efforts
are
being
made
by
a
range
of
actors
to
address
and
remedy
these
failings,
both
within
the
criminal
justice
system
and
throughout
Canadian
Society.
More
broadly,
this
case
attests
to
the
fact
that
more
needs
to
be
done
put
simply.
P
We
can
and
must
do
better,
and
these
principles
and
I'm,
citing
from
a
criminal
case,
has
also
been
cited
in
employment
law
cases,
which
is
obviously
what
we
deal
with
in
the
policing
context
and
arbitrators
have
recognized
that
the
effects
of
sexual
harassment
and
sexual
assault
on
victims
can
be
extreme
long-lasting
and
have
significant
impact
on
the
workplace.
Hence
an
employer's
positive
obligation
to
try
to
eliminate
these.
P
And
so
there
is
a
problem
and
I
think
we're
all
aware
of
it,
and
the
statistics
bear
this
out
in
our
community.
Women
are
11
times
more
likely
to
be
victim
of
sexual
offenses.
99
of
perpetrators
are
male,
85
percent
of
victims
know
their
perpetrator
and
stats.
Canada
did
an
online
public
consultation
from
February
14th
to
March,
9th
2017
and
found
that
30
percent
of
female
employees
experience
sexual
harassment
in
the
workplace,
and
so
these
statistics
really
present
a
dire
picture
of
what
exists
in
our
society
writ
large
and
what
occurs.
P
Within,
workplaces
and
many
media
articles
that
have
come
out
over
the
last
few
years
have
been
really
pointed
to
this
problem,
existing
specifically
in
policing
and
as
a
result,
in
2020
and
2021.
The
engagement
survey
that
the
Ops
published
indicated
that
a
significant
number
of
members
experienced
harassment
and
discrimination
in
the
workplace
and
in
addition,
we
had
the
RT
workplace
assessment,
which
found
that
female
employees
who
had
been
interviewed
experienced
sexual
harassment
and
violence
in
the
course
of
their
careers.
P
What
we
have
now,
as
I
indicated
at
the
outset,
is
these
two
regulations
and
we
have
a
chance
to
provide
meaningful
feedback
and
hopefully
advocate
for
the
actual
adoption
of
the
feedback
going
forward.
The
first,
as
I
indicated,
is
with
respect
to
the
Ontario
Police
and
arbitration
committee,
and
so
this
regulation
outlines
that
there
will
be
two
committee
committees.
One
is
responsible
for
labor-related
disputes.
The
other
is
responsible
for
discipline
related
hearings.
P
These
myths
and
stereotypes
have
been
written
about
for
many
many
years
in
the
criminal
law
world
and
that
has
been
adopted
in
many
in
in
the
Labor
Relations
context.
But
basically
any
of
these
myths
and
stereotypes
and
I
have
them
indicated
up
on
the
screen.
Are
errors
at
law
if
a
decision
maker
bases
their
decision
on
how
a
victim
should
behave
in
the
course
of
coming
to
a
final
conclusion
on
the
matter
before
them.
These
are
all
irrelevant
considerations
and,
and
to
this
day,
these
myths
and
stereotypes
are
pervasive.
P
Another
area
of
training
that
should
be
required
is
the
idea
of
consent.
This
comes
up
in
sexual
harassment
cases.
It
comes
up
in
sexual
assault
cases,
so
this
idea
that
there
is
no
implied
consent.
If
a
woman
is
not
resisting
or
protesting
that
that
is
some
form
of
consent.
There
is
no
broad
Advance
consent
to
sexual
activity
of
an
undefined
scope
and
there
is
no
propensity
to
consent,
so
the
belief
that
a
complainant's
prior
sexual
activities
or
sexual
harassment
made
it
more
likely
that
the
individual
is
consenting
to
the
sexual
activity
in
question.
P
The
second
protection
we'd
like
to
Advocate
to
be
put
in
place
is
a
procedure
where
an
accused
officer
has
in
their
possession
a
record
wherein
the
complainant
has
a
reasonable
expectation
of
privacy.
So
this
often
comes
in
the
form
of
text,
messages
or
or
pictures,
or
anything
that
one
individual
might
have
and
basically
placing
restrictions
on
the
use
of
that
to
prevent,
what's
often
called
a
trial
by
Ambush
or
what
is
often
referred
to
as
walking
the
complainant
in
the
course
of
their
cross-examination.
P
And
a
third
area
is
to
have
within
a
third-party
record
application
where
an
officer
seeks
to
get
records
from
not
the
employer.
Someone
else
for
the
tribunal
to
consider
things
like
a
complainant's,
reasonable
expectation
and
whether
the
request
is
based
on
any
discriminatory
belief
and
then
the
final
thing
that
we're
asking
be
put
into
place
within
the
regulations
are
actual
witness.
Protections
in
terms
of
testifying.
P
So
various
testimonial
supports
to
be
automatically
thought
of
and
put
into
place
if
a
complainant
indicates
that
they
need
that
in
order
to
provide
full
and
Frank
testimony
and
the
right,
in
certain
cases,
for
the
complainant
to
have
representation
to
represent
their
privacy
interests
in
the
course
of
these
matters,
and
so
I've
provided
in
the
PowerPoint.
Some
of
the
actual
wording
that
we're
suggesting
with
respect
to
legislating
these
protections
and
I
won't
go
through
all
of
that.
H
Curry
yeah
just
so
I'm
clear,
so
the
three
requests
you
have
the
first
one
though
we're
we're
going
to
so
we're
going
to
pass
we're
gonna
vote
on
these
three
requests.
You
have
today
and
then
we're
gonna
get
the
feedback.
I
mean
I,
hear
what
you've
said,
but
is
that
the
right
order
of
operations?
Because
will
it
would
it
be
necessary
for
us
to
see
that
or
I
didn't
really
see
the
wording
of
part?
One?
Two
and
three
for
this
motion,
maybe
so.
A
So
want.
You
can
hear
the
three
parts
endorse
the
word
enthusiapping
to
expose,
including
submitting
joint
feedback
with
the
service
on
the
regulations
and
directing
the
chair
and
chief
meet
Johnson
with
the
solicitor
general.
So
there's
the
wording,
feedback.
There's
the
training
component
battery
and
the
joint
reading
of
our
job
is
correct.
H
P
H
C
C
P
So
I
I
think
no
I
I
would
not
be
I
would
not
hesitate
to
recommend
those
in
the
administrative
context
and
in
fact
the
this
would
not
be
the
first
administrative
tribunal
to
enact
these
types
of
protections.
The
Ontario,
Physicians
and
surgeons
discipline
tribunal
also
has
a
rules
of
procedure
and
they've.
In
fact,
codified.
P
Section
276
of
the
criminal
code
almost
to
the
T
So
parties
do
have
to
follow
that
where
there
would
be
some
difference
is
how
an
application
is
dealt
with,
because
under
our
anticipated
rules
there
are
different
filing
deadlines
for
motions,
and
obviously
the
purpose
of
an
administrative
tribunal
is
supposed
to
be
that
these
matters
are
dealt
with
in
an
efficient
fashion,
but
really
dealing
with
that.
These
issues
in
advance
is
more
efficient
than
a.
You
know.
P
A
hearing
by
Ambush,
whereby
a
defense
lawyer
presents
all
these
materials
in
the
course
of
a
complainants
cross-examination
and
the
proceedings
have
to
pause
for
parties
to
deal
with
objections,
and
then
testimony
is
bifurcated.
And
So
It
causes
a
whole
host
of
delays
and
issues,
so
it
still
isn't
keeping
in
line
with
the
efficiency
purpose
of
an
administrative
Tribunal.
P
Of
course,
this
wouldn't
violate
an
officer's
right
to
procedural
fairness
and,
in
addition,
within
these
rules,
we're
actually
proposing
implementing
the
Civil
standard
of
mutual
disclosure.
So
an
officer
would
already
be
providing
their
entire
case
in
advance
with
the
prosecution,
like
members
would
do
in
a
civil
case.
Parties
would
do
in
a
civil
case,
so.
C
A
A
A
The
wording,
feedback
and
principles
with
the
Ops
is
suggesting
in
relation
to
complainant
protection
in
the
proposed
rules
for
adjudication
hearings
on
the
regulations
regarding
the
Ontario
Police
occupation
and
the
presentation
commission
under
the
Community
safety
and
the
reaching
at
csta
and
then
comma,
not
yet
enforce.
Thomas
yeah.
A
Moving
on
in
our
agenda,
I
wanted
to
bring
back
a
plan,
and
this
is
the
self-facility
project
member
or
vice
chair,
Paul
County
have
a
question
regarding
this
and
I
just
want
to
put
it
up
to
reassure
of
processes,
and
that
is
that
in
the
quarterly
financial
report
Whenever
there
is
an
expenditure
about
25
000.
So
let's
come
back
to
us
in
the
quarterly
financial
report
as
in
any
circumstances
where
you've
delegated
authorities,
so
those
would
come
back
in
that
manner.
C
N
C
As
long
as
it's
not
kind
of
put
into
all
of
the
other
numbers
or
by
dates,
I
think
if
we
can
have
a
separate,
focused
area
for
South
facility
and
the
contracts
that
have
been
approved
under
there,
whatever
thresholders
agreed
to
or
what,
if
you,
if
it's
already
25
000,
that's
fine
I
just
proposed
that
that
we
have
a
separate
section.
Okay,
so.
E
E
Is
it
on
time
that
you
know
but
budget
like
those
basic
high
level
project
updates,
could
perhaps
what
you're
asking
for
be
be
fit
into
that
where
we
would
have
an
an
update
where
we'd
hit
the
biggest
project
risk
issues
and
risks
and
include
that
Financial
component
in
there,
like
I'm,
assuming
this
will
be
reported
back
through
our
board
meetings.
Regular
updates
on
the
Ottawa
facility?
Would
it
maybe
dizzy?
Bell
could
ask
like.
I
Okay,
perfect
yeah,
so
we
had
from
the
outsets
when
we
brought
back
the
facilities
strategic
plan
refresh
committed
to
quarterly
coming
to
the
finance
and
audit
committee
to
provide
overall
updates
on
project
status.
Expenditures
risks
moving
ahead,
so
we
can.
We
will
continue
to
do
that
and
we'll
continue
to
maintain
that
commitment.
I
A
So
it
does
come
to
finance
and
audits.
Perhaps
the
way
then
is
to
ensure
the
report.
The
finance
and
audit
committee
report
does
come
through
the
door,
so
maybe
we
can,
just
in
a
separate
motion,
ensure
that
the
board
received
specific
reports
with
respect
to
the
South
facility
project
as
a
separate
Motion
in
there
Victor.
C
C
C
A
The
one
thing
I
do
need
to
do,
however,
is
confirm
that
the
full
motion
of
eight
times,
as
originally
said
it
is
carried-
and
this
is
that
the
Ottawa
Police
Services
Board,
approved
one
the
real
equation
and
advance
of
facilities
to
feature
plan.
Project
funding
I'm
not
going
to
read
it
all
through
to
the
award
of
deduction
contracts.
It
continues
and
three
the
delegation
of
authorities
of
chief
of
police
Civil
War
contract,
the
next
few
payments,
as
written
in
your
board
book
at
8
10.,
is
the
motion
pairing.
E
And
I
held
it,
but
I
think
I'm,
okay,
I
just
wanted
to
understand.
When
I
read
the
report,
I
understood
that
there
would
be
two
consultations:
there'll
be
consultation
with
members
and
consultation
with
the
public
and
then
that
there
was
going
to
be
two
reports
that
came
out
one
that's
coming
in
q1
and
one
that's
coming
in
Q2
and
then
the
on.
Overall,
there
was
going
to
be
three
reports.
E
I'll
have
to
pull
up
my
notes
right
now,
but
the
consultations
that
I
understood
it
were
to
develop
we're
going
to
be
used
to
develop
policies
and
procedures
as
well
as
training.
That
was
the
goal
of
the
public
consultations
and
with
the
member
consultations.
I
got
that
right,
so
you're.
Looking
at
like
policy
and
procedures
like,
for
example,
I
guess
like
would
an
officer
have
to
wear
it
all
the
time
were
there
times
that
they
can
turn
it
off.
Like
that's
the
sort
of
policy
procedure
type
question
that
you're
looking
at.
J
I
can
answer
that.
Thank
you,
member
Carr
yeah,
you
know,
they're
body,
worn
cameras
have
been
widely
distributed,
of
course,
in
the
United
States
and
in
Canada
here
as
well,
and
we're
not
looking
to
reinvent
you
know
the
the
program.
A
lot
of
people
have
made
mistakes
and
learned
and
have
refined
their
policy,
but
there
is
a
couple
of
key
points
like
you
just
raised
of
of
when
these
are
to
be
deployed
in
what
circumstances
there's
some
that
want.
E
Okay,
perfect
I,
just
was
I,
guess
I
got
bogged
down
because
the
second
part
is
the
three
reports
that
are
coming
later
on
sort
of
once
the
pilot
is
implemented
right.
So
anyhow,
just
yeah
I,
think
I'm
I
think
I'm
good
on
that
that
that
part
and
I'll
probably
have
questions
as
it
proceeds,
but
on
the
consultation,
that's
good
so.
J
A
A
There
be
no
other
business
members
of
the
board,
I
speak
a
motion
to
adjourn.
Our
next
meeting
is
on
October
23rd,
2023
and
4.
P.M
may
I
have
a
most
important
so
moved.
Thank
you
very
much.
Everyone
for
all
of
your
hard
work
this
afternoon
at
the
long
agenda
and
look
forward
to
seeing
you
next
month
take
care.
