Thank you for being with us this evening, gentlemen.
Mr. Watson, I listened to your presentation. I'd like you to tell me a little more about how you view the role you had to play during the events.
I understand a lot of stakeholders were involved. There was the chief of the Ottawa Police Service, Mr. Ayotte in Emergency and Protective Services, the Parliamentary Protective Service, the Ontario Provincial Police and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
As mayor of Ottawa, how would you define the role you had to play during the events?
