Well, yes, to a certain extent. We also know, however, that, whether it was through operation Hendon or the ITAC reports, Ottawa knew this was coming.
Therefore, I don't think it's simply “they had the benefit”. I think they had the benefit of being criticized for what they did in G20 and actually got their house in order. They had a police service board and a police service that were working together functionally. They had a mayor who bothered to sit on the police service board and wasn't off on his own frolic negotiating with protesters.
I think a lot can be learned from the Toronto experience. I've said critical things about the police—you know that, Senator Boniface—but I also think we need to give credit where credit is due. There are two places where you should look to see what went right: what happened with the actual Parliament grounds not being breached—in light of what happened in 2014—and what was done in Toronto. I think those are significant successes.
Your committee should learn, in a balanced way, both from failures and from what has worked.
