Why do I prefer and trust paramedic & Firefighter over the cops in any situation. Because while Terrorist hold Ottawa Hostage for 3 weeks. Cops were seen on camera hugging them. Firefighters had the most busiest weeks responding to fire that some were started by them while trying to work around their blockade. I saw someone park their truck right in front of one of their station! Paramedics for their part add on multiple occasion their Ambulance blocked by them and their hospital getting called bomb threat. Don’t forget the literal assault they experience doing their job. So yeah I acknowledge their courage because Terrorist felt safe around cop but not them and that says a lot

Some of the organizers of last year's convoy have altered plans to end a second convoy in Ottawa this February, opting instead for Winnipeg.
James Bauder, co-founder of the group Canada Unity and a co-organizer of last February's protest in Ottawa, made the announcement in a Facebook live video, along with fellow organizers Ron Clark and Colin 'Big Bear' Ross, on Christmas Day.
The rally is scheduled to take place from Feb. 17 to Feb. 20, 2023. The start date falls on the one-year anniversary of the final full day of the protest in Ottawa — one day before police started a push to take back occupied streets in the nation's capital.
Bauder had previously posted a call on social media for "Freedom Convoy 2.0" in Ottawa on those same February dates. Now he says the capital will be a stop on the way to Winnipeg where the convoy will make its presence known.
"We're going to come with our convoy — coming right by Ottawa," he said. "We're going to honk, honk and we're going to invite Ottawa residents." [...]
"We chose Winnipeg because it's the middle point in Canada, so people can come from the east coast, from the west coast," Ross said. "We'll be able to convoy across the nation."

"Only weeks ago, we commemorated the thirteenth anniversary of our crushed Egyptian revolution. I remember the sting of tear gas, the crack of bullets, the fallen martyrs, and the child straddling his father’s neck, chanting, “‘Aish, hurreyya, ‘adala igtama’eyya!”—bread, freedom, social justice.
What I also remember: when millions of Egyptians took to the streets, toppling decades of oppression, the first focal point their eyes turned to was Palestine.
I remember Tahrir Square brimming with Palestinian flags as millions pledged allegiance to their colonized kin. I remember protesters storming the colonizer’s embassy in Cairo, a young man, Ahmed El-Shahhat, scaling the wall, tearing down and burning the colonizer’s flag, and hoisting Egypt’s in its stead—and the crowd below roaring. I remember 2012, when the Rafah border flung open, and a tide of Egyptian convoys and activists ebbed and flowed, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with their Palestinian siblings amid the bombardment.
I remember all of this, and I remind myself every day: the obliteration of our revolution—on the streets of Egypt, in the hearts of Egyptians, and in future generations—was imperative for the empire. It would have rendered endeavors like the ongoing genocide unfeasible, so it had to be quashed and its history eradicated. I remind myself: our liberation and that of the Palestinians are inextricable."

RCMP's Michael Duheme named interim commissioner, replacing Lucki
The federal government has named Michael Duheme as the interim commissioner of the RCMP, taking on the role as the search continues to find Brenda Lucki's permanent replacement.
Currently deputy commissioner, Duheme's first day will be tomorrow, as today is Lucki's last on the job.
The embattled commissioner announced last month that she was retiring after nearly 40 years on the force, in what Lucki called a "personal decision."
In a statement, Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino announced his interim pick, while the search for a permanent leader continues.
“I have every confidence that his extensive experience in policing across the country and around the world has prepared him well to lead our national police force,” Mendicino said.
While Lucki made her departure publicly known a month ago, Mendicino is still promising more details about the process to identify the next commissioner "in due course."
Capital Dispatch: Sign up for in-depth political coverage of Parliament Hill
Duheme was previously responsible for the RCMP's federal policing program, which takes the lead on enforcing federal laws, collecting criminal intelligence, investigating matters of national security, providing security for major events, and conducting protective policing, which is the kind of security Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and other high-level officials receive.
He testified next to Lucki during the Public Order Emergency Commission (POEC) late last year, telling the commission that his responsibility throughout the ‘Freedom Convoy’ protests was to ensure that Lucki had the right information to brief deputy ministers and cabinet members, and to co-ordinate the requests for additional resources.
Most recently, Duheme addressed MPs studying foreign interference, where he said the federal police force had not received any "actionable intelligence" that would lead to an investigation in regards to Beijing meddling allegations.
"Deputy Commissioner Duheme has led a distinguished career with the RCMP, serving Canadians for over three decades across four provinces," Mendicino said.
According to his RCMP biography, Duheme has been an RCMP officer for more than 34 years. From Quebec, he began his career on general duty in Nova Scotia, but also has served on a Kosovo peacekeeping mission, has been a VIP protection officer, and was a past director of the Parliamentary Protective Service.
"He strives to empower RCMP officers to create value for the communities the RCMP serves, both domestically and abroad. He feels the increasing complexity of crime can be effectively countered by improving the organization's ability to respond to threats in collaboration with its domestic and foreign partners," his bio reads.
Coming into the role as the national police force marks its 150th anniversary, Duheme is taking the helm at a time when serious questions are being raised around future of the RCMP, and the ongoing work needed to address and reform years of systemic issues.

A group of "Freedom Convoy" supporters rallied on Parliament Hill and marched through downtown Ottawa Saturday on the anniversary of the police operation to remove the entrenched convoy protesters from Ottawa.
A massive police operation with hundreds of officers began Feb. 18, 2022 to push out the protesters who had occupied downtown Ottawa streets for three weeks. It would take multiple days to clear the parliamentary precinct.
The rally on Parliament Hill Saturday comes a day after Justice Paul Rouleau released his findings into the federal government's use of the Emergencies Act to quell the convoy protests in Ottawa and at border crossings in Alberta and Manitoba, which found, "with reluctance", that the government was justified in using the legislation.
Protesters could be seen with many of the usual symbols and signs of the "Freedom Convoy" movement, including anti-vaccine messages and denouncements of the prime minister. [...]

Members of Parliament are returning to Ottawa ahead of the start of the legislative session on Monday, as the city prepares to commemorate the one-year anniversary of the arrival of "Freedom Convoy" protesters.
Liberal and Conservative MPs gathered on Parliament Hill on Friday for caucus meetings, outlining their priorities for the House of Commons 2023 session, which begins on Jan. 30.
The ongoing cost-of-living crisis and the risk of a recession are among the top issues confronting federal politicians this winter, as are the state of Canada's health-care systems and the prospect of massive new funding deals with provinces, as well as the government's ability to deliver services in light of the recent increased reliance on private consultants.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre both delivered rousing speeches to their caucuses, previewing the lines of attack that will undoubtedly be repeated during question period, both centred on an ongoing debate between the two leaders over whether Canada is "broken."
In response to his Official Opposition counterpart's claims, Trudeau said Poilievre has "chosen to amplify people's real anger, and instead of offering them solutions, to offer them more anger."
Trudeau said in his caucus speech that the Liberals' "positive vision" for the future "could not be more different than Mr. Poilievre's version."
Last week, the New Democrats met on Parliament Hill for a pre-House strategy session. NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh said in a statement on Friday that his party intends to use its supply-and-confidence agreement with the minority Liberals to "fight for relief from the crushing cost of living, as well as rebuilding and protecting public universal free health care."
The return of MPs to Ottawa coincides with the one-year anniversary of the first weekend of "Freedom Convoy" protests. Thousands of vehicles and people rolled into downtown Ottawa in January 2022, as part of what many in charge expected to be a weekend of protests against COVID-19 restrictions and the government.
After taking up residence on Wellington Street, the "Freedom Convoy" protest quickly expanded into a weeks-long occupation of the downtown core, as well as the blockade of key Canada-U.S. border crossings.
After weeks of business closures, cross-border tensions, incessant horn honking, cheering from conservative politicians, and concerns about threats or acts of "serious violence… for the purpose of achieving a political or ideological objective," Trudeau took the unprecedented step of invoking the Emergencies Act for the first time since it became law in 1988 in February. The findings of the national investigation into this chapter in Canadian history, as well as how those responsible handled the protest and the powers to end it, are expected to be presented next month.
On his way into the Conservative caucus meeting, Ontario MP and former leadership candidate Scott Aitchison reflected on the anniversary, saying, "the convoy probably shouldn't have had to happen, but people are frustrated in this country, and they have every reason to be."
This angst, directed primarily at the federal Liberals, was on display on the streets of Hamilton, Ont., earlier this week, while he and his cabinet were in town for meetings. A small group of protesters demanding Trudeau's resignation surrounded Trudeau, who was protected by officers. Many of the demonstrators were carrying Canadian flags.
Meanwhile, a debate is raging about what to do with Wellington Street, which has remained closed to vehicle traffic—bookended by cement barricades—since police moved in last February to clear out the convoy.
While the City of Ottawa is working to reopen the street in front of Parliament Hill to vehicle traffic in March, federal politicians have suggested keeping the street closed indefinitely and extending the vehicle-free zone one block west.
Yasir Naqvi, an Ottawa Centre Liberal who supported Ottawa Mayor Mark Sutcliffe in his bid for the city's top job, told reporters Friday that the two politicians disagree on this issue.
Asked how he's feeling on the eve of the anniversary of the convoy rolling into town, Naqvi said that while people have the right to protest in a peaceful and lawful manner, it's "important that we don't see a repeat of the kind of occupation we saw a year ago.
In terms of preparations, access to Parliament Hill is being restricted, and police have promised that any illegal activity or roadblocks will be dealt with swiftly, while any noise, parking, or fireworks violations will be treated harshly.
In the Parliamentary Precinct, there is an increased police presence and parking restrictions, and public tours of the Hill have been cancelled.
While local police have not stated how many protesters they anticipate downtown this weekend, the Parliamentary Protective Service issued a "notice of demonstration on Parliament Hill" on Friday afternoon, stating that 500 people are expected.
PPS told CTVNews.ca that its planning is "intelligence-led," and that it determined that hundreds of people could come into the core to protest despite few official indications from past organizers or high-profile participants about their intent to return at this time.
According to the force in charge of policing on the Hill, "working in close collaboration with our security and law enforcement partners" and is "closely monitoring the situation as it relates to the anniversary event. As needed, we will adjust our security posture on Parliament Hill and within the Parliamentary Precinct."
