Leaders from the Freedom Convoy would not have been able to meet with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau nor Governor General Mary Simon, but might have been able to secure a meeting with high-ranking officials in the federal government in exchange for an end to the occupation.
The proposal for a meeting was the subject of many discussions and emails between Feb. 10 to 13 between the Deputy Minister of Public Safety Canada, Rob Stewart, Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) officials, according to evidence presented to the Public Order Emergency Commission (POEC) on Tuesday.
