In regard to that, we have built up in Edmonton a large community of members who work specifically with multiple communities around these kinds of events. Obviously, our direction to our membership is not driven so much by the municipality, but by ourselves as executives here, and what our expectations are about treating all people equally by protecting the grounds that people have for freedom of speech, but ensuring it's done in a manner that is respectful of others.
I know that with EPS and our ability to have a very active hate crimes unit, compared to many other police jurisdictions, we work closely with our hate crimes unit and with our police liaison team, who work with some of the protests when these things come up. They have built relationships with communities so as to understand when these things are going to happen. When people are going to have events, particularly in Edmonton, we have them at our provincial legislative grounds. We work closely with people to ensure that's done in a safe manner.
Of course, we try to lay out those expectations and to develop what this is going to look like prior to these events. A lot of it comes down to some good planning and making sure that people are abiding by the plan. If there is a need to do any further enforcement, we work through that. We don't necessarily act immediately upon it. We will continue to take that and investigate it if there's a need after that.
