Media statement, Ottawa Police Chief Peter Sloly January 31, 2022, 7:45 pm
'No injuries, no deaths, no riots in the last four days in the nation's capital, even though we have a global cause, national protest.'

'There were reports of denial of service—injuries and trauma-related directly to the demonstration. I can tell you that is not true.'

'We have verification from ambulance services, fire services and police services that while they were delays in responses and, in some instances, gaps in services delivery, nobody was directly affected regarding ambulatory service requirements or emergency services requirements.'

'We have several active criminal investigations undergoing from bribery to threats to assault to the dangerous operation of vehicles. They will continue. Please report to us any other matters that we are not aware of.'

'We have continued our working relationship with the Crowns Office. We have intelligence officers, investigative officers, and multi-jurisdictional support from British Columbia to Saint John's. From Nunavut to the GTA.'

'To make sure that no matter where you live, no matter where your vehicles are registered ... If you have committed a hate crime, you will be investigated. We will look for you. We will charge you, if necessary, will arrest you, and we will pursue prosecutions against you.'

So, then, clearly not a repeat of Jan. 6, 2021 in Washington.
