A controversial organization operating out of a historic Ottawa church has set up what it calls a “private security force,” saying it was necessary because police weren’t responding to its concerns quickly enough.
The United People of Canada (TUPC) said it has identified people it claims have committed crimes targeting the group, and is prepared to “ensure the rule of law is upheld within our lawful authority,” according to William Komer, one of its directors.
However, Komer wouldn’t share details about whether the force will be made up of outside contractors or the group’s supporters.
