Right from the beginning of the protest we had a role to play. In the initial instances, we had our own mandate of protecting Parliament, parliamentarians and the Senate. We had a national capital region command centre that included Ottawa Police Service, OPP and other police of jurisdiction. We also had a joint intelligence group, where we worked together throughout the protest.
Then, when it came to enforcement actions just prior to that weekend of enforcement, we had created a planning cell, a joint planning cell, with an integrated command centre specifically for the enforcement. We were helping them throughout with frontline policing duties as well as with other specialized resources.
