When former Ontario Provincial Police chief Supt. Carson Pardy arrived in Ottawa with a team of police experts on a cold evening in February, he expected a warmer welcome from Ottawa police.
It was more than 10 days after a convoy of big-rig trucks and protesters against COVID-19 mandates and the Liberal government had arrived in the capital and embedded themselves in downtown streets, forcing businesses to close and setting off a chaotic few weeks.
"Overall the tone, I would say, was very antagonistic, it was disrespectful," Pardy said Friday during his testimony before a public inquiry into the use of the federal Emergencies Act. Sloly is expected to to testify before the commission, which is scheduled to hold public hearings until Nov. 25 in downtown Ottawa.
Sloly was asking for support officers to come from the OPP, the Mounties and other agencies, but Pardy said they could not commit to sending them without a plan for when they got there. The statement concerned Abrams enough to raise it with his superior officer, and the next day Sloly announced a request for 1,800 officers from other police agencies.
