Ottawa 'lost control' of protests, mayor says
Ottawa 'lost control' of protests, mayor says  The mayor of Canada's national capital said officials failed to act fast enough to curb demonstrations that paralysed his city earlier this year. The rate of winning SLOTXO games and getting bonuses back into profit is quite high and certainly outnumbers many other camps. Jim Watson was testifying at a public inquiry looking into whether it was warranted for Canada to invoke emergency powers to end the protests. The so-called Freedom Convoy protests began at the end of January and gridlocked Ottawa for three weeks. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked the Emergencies Act on 14 February. The Public Order Emergency Commission began six weeks of hearings last week to examine the Trudeau government's decision to invoke the federal act, the circumstances that led to that declaration, and the measures put in place by Ottawa to clear the anti-vaccine mandate and anti-government protests. Invoking the law requires that a formal inquiry be held. The hearings have given a behind-the-scenes look at the confusion and frustration between the municipal, provincial and federal governments as well as local police as they sought a solution to end the protests. In his testimony, Ottawa's Mayor Watson said his city had "lost control" of the protest site and that Ottawa police were outnumbered. At the time, Mr Watson had called Mr Trudeau and the federal ministers of public safety and emergency preparedness to ask for help. "Show me the Mounties," Mr Watson said, according to a call transcript, requesting more Royal Canadian Mounted Police on the ground to help control the protests. Last week the inquiry heard from two Ottawa residents who detailed "extensive" effects of living in the city during the three-week protest, including the constant noise of idling trucks and honks that interrupted sleep, harassment over face masks and the loss of city services because of the gridlock. |
