Declaration of Emergency committee  At what time was it made?

Declaration of Emergency committee  You do know that the Ambassador Bridge was completely reopened by 8:30 p.m. Wasn't it?

Declaration of Emergency committee  Thank you, Madam Chair. Minister, you did say that cabinet made the decision to declare the state of emergency. Didn't you?

Declaration of Emergency committee  On what date was that decision made?

Declaration of Emergency committee  How did you react to the fact that you declared the state of emergency after the bridge had been cleared? You knew at that point that the bridge had been cleared and that traffic had resumed. So it's possible to reopen a bridge by doing something other than declaring a state of emergency.

Declaration of Emergency committee  When you made the decision in the evening of February 13, you knew that the Ambassador Bridge had been cleared. You knew that authorities had managed to clear the bridge using the tools at their disposal at that time.

Declaration of Emergency committee  I come back to the question that was asked earlier about communication with the banks. On the form, it was possible to share criminal records and indicate whether the person had been a witness to other crimes or had other incidents. Can you tell us how providing that information to the banks was relevant?

Declaration of Emergency committee  RCMP Superintendent Denis Beaudoin appeared before the House of Commons Standing Committee on Finance on March 7, 2022. He said that the document could indicate the following information: “previous police dealings, or whether they were suspected in other crimes or were witnesses in other crimes or different types of dealings”.

Declaration of Emergency committee  Did the information include dealings with the police, being suspected in other crimes or being witnesses to other crimes, or other types of dealings?

Declaration of Emergency committee  Under the order, you could indicate that the person was suspected of committing other crimes, besides the simple fact that they were at an illegal gathering on Wellington Street. On what legal basis could you provide information other than that?

Declaration of Emergency committee  Thank you.

Declaration of Emergency committee  Thank you, Madam Chair. My question is for Commissioner Lucki. You said that you learned on February 14 that a state of emergency would be declared. On February 15, the Emergency Economic Measures Order was issued, making it possible to freeze individuals' bank accounts, life insurance, disability insurance, RRSPs, TFSAs and so forth.

Declaration of Emergency committee  There was the group of three, the RCMP, the Ottawa Police Service and the Ontario Provincial Police. At your integrated centre that managed the crisis, did one of those three police services ask the government for that authority?

Declaration of Emergency committee  When you established the plan, on February 12 or 13, how many police services did you expect to have to help you?

Declaration of Emergency committee  Okay, but the initial plan on February 12 was carried out.
