‘People are pissed:’ Ottawa police logs describe confrontational, abusive crowds during protest

Ottawa police officers assigned to work with the convoy protesters described abusive and confrontational — but also sometimes cooperative — crowds during last winter’s blockades, according to their logs presented at the Emergencies Act inquiry.

Hundreds of pages of logs from the police liaison team were entered into evidence on Friday at the Public Order Emergency Commission, which is investigating the federal government’s decision to invoke the Emergencies Act on Feb. 14 to clear the crowds.

The document includes the date and time of the record, the officer’s last name and badge number and a brief summary of what each officer observed on a given day.
