Bell’s testimony came after retired Ontario Provincial Police officer, Carson Pardy, testified last week that while the emergency powers helped the police, he did not think they were necessary to help clear the protesters who were occupying the streets for weeks last winter. A summary of Bell’s interview with commission lawyers this summer lists a series of statements from Sloly and the OPS that “caused trust issues.”
A great idea in theory, Bell said, but impossible in reality. “The flood of officers into areas affected by convoy participants that Chief Sloly announced never materialized,” the document reads. On Feb. 11, Bell said Navigator participated in a meeting with Sloly and acting deputy chief Patricia Ferguson to brainstorm ideas for police operations against the convoy.
In his testimony, Bell reiterated that, in his view, there was “nothing” to identify that the convoy participants would stay longer than the first weekend even though intelligence reports from his own police force as well as the Ontario Provincial Police do indicate that that could be the case.Article content
