Supt. Robert Bernier, who oversaw the Ottawa police command centre for a portion of the 'Freedom Convoy' demonstrations in February, said he would have carried out a preplanned police operation even if the law had not been invoked
OTTAWA — A senior Ottawa officer told the Emergencies Act inquiry Tuesday that police had tow trucks at the ready before the federal government invoked the Emergencies Act and would have moved on protesters with or without the new powers.
During the convoy Ottawa police said one of their limitations to bring the protests to an end was an unwillingness of tow truck drivers to help move hundreds of vehicles blocking the streets around Parliament Hill. Previous officers testified there was a lack of informed intelligence and dysfunction in the ranks of Ottawa police from the early days of the protest.
Lucas, who was an incident commander during the convoy, said he was shocked by how many vehicles arrived and said police were overwhelmed trying to control them. Interim chief Steve Bell said Monday the police expected the protesters to be peaceful and leave after three days but that's not what happened. He said the police did not properly prepare for the effect the protests would have on local residents, including violence.
