Government Operations committee  I appreciate the opportunity to reply, but again, I cannot speak for what occurred on the streets of the G-20. It was within the jurisdiction of the Toronto police service and the events as they unfolded on the streets of Toronto. I can only speak for the G-8, particularly on wha

Government Operations committee  Actually, I'll ask Ms. Davis to provide more accurate information on that.

Government Operations committee  Again, I'll defer that to Ms. Davis. She'll have more accurate information than I have.

Government Operations committee  On a broad scope, again, the biggest majority of it went to communications infrastructure for the Huntsville area. Again, we're speaking of an OPP detachment with one operational tower and 22 officers. We had to put communications infrastructure in place for 3,000 people. There w

Government Operations committee  Unfortunately, I can't speak for the Toronto Police Service about their negotiations with Public Safety Canada on their infrastructure. I could only speak to infrastructure and processes in regard to the G-8 and the OPP, unfortunately.

Government Operations committee  Again, I'll speak for the OPP and the Province of Ontario.

Government Operations committee  Again, I can't speak for the Toronto G-20, where there were a number of arrests made. I can only speak for the G-8. We did an assessment of past events, what we thought the risks were associated with those events, and on what we might expect during the G-8. When the G-20 came alo

Government Operations committee  I can say that we did that for the G-8. Again, I can't speak for the G-20 in Toronto.

Government Operations committee  No. The Toronto Police Service was responsible for entering their own budget with Public Safety Canada.

Government Operations committee  I have no idea at all. I cannot speak to....

Government Operations committee  It was.

Government Operations committee  Yes. I would be happy to. As Chief Superintendent MacNeil said, as part of the planning process in Barrie where we established our offices, we had over 100 officers working on the planning process strictly on behalf of the OPP during the two years leading up to the event. That

Government Operations committee  Yes, I would. I can only speak for the Province of Ontario and state that the OPP has a reporting relationship to the Minister of Community Safety and Correctional Services on a regular basis. However, there was no decision-making process in there at all as far as policing operat

Government Operations committee  Thank you very much. We negotiated a budget ahead of time of approximately $84 million for the event.
