Dear City of Ottawa residents, I'd just like to point out some things to you:
- We're going to have a municipal election to elect a new mayor and City Councillors on Monday, October 24, 2022.
- Current mayor, @JimWatsonOttawa will not be running for mayor.
/1
- Current long-serving Ward 10 City Councillor, @dianedeans has announced her candidacy as mayor.
- Ms. Deans is currently the chair of the Ottawa Police Services Board ottawapoliceboard.ca/opsb-cspo/abou… /2
- The Ottawa Police Services Board (OPSB) and the @OttawaPolice have done nothing for Ottawa residents to end the occupation of Ottawa by the #klutruxklan.
- Ward 22 City Councillor Carol-Anne Meehan also sits on the Police Services Board. /3
- On January 26, 2022, 3 days before the occupation of Ottawa began, the OPSB had a special meeting where the only agenda item was the upcoming demonstration.

- the aforementioned City Councillors were in attendance as well as @OPSChiefSloly.
/4
- Ward 13 City Councillor @rawlsonking asked if the protestors have applied for a permit to demonstrate:

Acting Deputy Chief Trish Ferguson confirmed there is no permit application for the demonstration:

Pls RT this and pls, call to make your voice heard.

I just called @fordnation's office at 416-325-1941. After a 5 minute wait in the queue, a lovely woman named Cheryl answered my call.
I suggested she add my call "to the pile of calls" I assume they are receiving on this.
/1
I told her I was calling to plead with our Premier to step in & end the occupation of Ottawa immediately.
I told her that residents are sick & tired of the disruption to our city & we are gravely disappointed in the lack of response from our municipal and provincial gov't.
/2
She offered to relay this to the Premier. I asked if she speaks directly to him, or his people.

She explained that she is a civil servant and he is a politician and there is a clear delineation btw the 2.

She told me that she works for me and the residents of Ontario.

Feeling the need to post a thread 🧵. Here goes: 4 hours ago, I dropped off my 3 daughters at school for the 1st time since mid-December. I fucking broke down watching them in their poorly fitting adult KN95 masks walk into the school yard. /1
They were greeted at the gate by staff wearing blue surgical masks. I was tempted to approach the staff and ask where their Ministry-supplied masks were, but I was bawling my eyes out at this point. I returned to my car and loudly ugly-cried. /2
I feel like I am putting my kids in harm’s way by bringing them to school. I feel like having them home isn’t an option. We, as parents, have no choice, and our gov’t that provides education and health care has failed us & our kids by forcing them back into unsafe schools. /3
