Ottawa residents at Riverside & Bank are now trying to take back our city from insurrectionists; we know we've been abandoned by Police, City, Province and Country. @OPSChiefSloly @JimWatsonOttawa @fordnation @JustinTrudeau - if you won't do it we'll have to do it ourselves.
@OPSChiefSloly @JimWatsonOttawa @fordnation @JustinTrudeau this is what I was tweeting about a few days ago when insurrectionist re-supply route was announced. #HerosofRiverside knew the obvious pinch-points like this and also knew Ottawa Police would never take action
@OPSChiefSloly @JimWatsonOttawa @fordnation @JustinTrudeau Looks like #HerosofRiverside counter demo is growing. Would love to be there but I need a mental health break this afternoon.
@OPSChiefSloly @JimWatsonOttawa @fordnation @JustinTrudeau Traffic feed can be found here - look for Bank & Riverside. Wouldn't surprise me if Ottawa Police decide to disable this feed "for our own protection".

Been reviewing my pics of “Battle of Billings Bridge” today. Struck by images of entitled insurrectionist couples in Lincoln’s, SUVs and pickups who just had most shocking & humiliating day of their lives. 1/
They started day with their freedumb, racist and anti-democratic symbols and play-acting camo thinking that they’d invade DT Ottawa once again for the 🎊 Sunday Party 🎉 on Wellington. 2/
When they were first delayed by #HerosofRiverside they naturally assumed that @OttawaPolice would once again facilitate their journey. 3/

Thrilled to join #HerosofRiverside this afternoon at Bank and Riverside. Most encouraging moments of past 16 terrifying days. Freedom and Community means looking out for most vulnerable 1/
Ottawa saying ENOUGH and taking action because we know that we can't trust Ottawa Police to protect us. 2/
A few Ottawa company vehicles were "captured" by the counter-posters so we had lots of opportunity to document the insurrectionists in our midst. Here's Wyss Diesel getting an extra special dose of "SLOW DOWN- MOVE OVER" 3/

Went for one of my regular walks past the front lines of #convoytoottawa2020 at end of aft today with friend . Seemed like fewer trucks and people than last week ... what will the weekend bring? 1/ ImageImageImage
Only sound of horns was on Wellington in front of Parl Hill. Needless to say no enforcement by @OttawaPolice But hey that injunction by City that's right around the corner is sure to make a difference 🙄 2/
The mood this afternoon some hours after Ford's Emergency Measures announcement was noticeably more sombre than at any time in past 14 days. Little of the celebratory air. 3/ ImageImage

Did another walk through the #convoytoottawa2022 front lines late yesterday afternoon 9 Feb. No signs @OttawaPolice @JimWatsonOttawa @SteveKanellakos @ChiefAyotte are doing anything to prepare for the inevitable increase in occupiers on weekend. 1/
By no means worst aspect of occupation but city's inability to manage crisis has led to closure of one of few parks in DT Ottawa with a fence being erected around National Aboriginal Veterans Monument to save it from further desecration from "patriots". 2/
Speaking of monuments glad to see action finally taken to remove partisan PPC sign on the National War Memorial. Maybe @RoyalCdnLegion was able to get Police to take action because I was not. 3/

An #ottpoli FEDCO thread: Current membership of Ottawa Council’s major priority setting committee FEDCO is shown here. Green represents wards whose councillors are on FEDCO. 1/8
FEDCO sets direction on fin and admin; corp goals; econ development; fiscal & management policy; auditing; overseeing Op and Cap Budgets; comms, pub engagement, client service; accessibility, HR, labour relations, bilingualism; IT legal services; procurement etc. 2/8
To underline its importance, frequently Transit Commission members incl @smwgilbert @Diaspora3LvW @TonyCarricato and #MichaelOlsen are barred from discussing issues related to LRT procurement and told these are solely in purview of FEDCO. 3/8

With upcoming announcement on Ottawa’s #RoadSafetyActionPlan at Gladstone and Bay by @JimWatsonOttawa and @AltaVistaWard18 thought I’d do a thread on this dangerous intersection for #OttPed and #OttBike. I walk, cycle and drive it many times a day. @cmckenney 1/
Gladstone is a major connector and important E/W route for #Autowa and @OC_Transpo and also a City “suggested route” for cycling. 2/
Bay, a one-way N side street, is major active transport route to/from DT. It’s the *only* N bound bike route between O’Connor & Trullium MUP. Also a lovely and busy #Ped route from W part of Centretown and Glebe (via Percy under 417). Highlight is access to Dundonald Park 3/
