Friends, it’s time to check-in on Ottawa’s nightlife.

No party tonight at Ottawa’s Hottest Club, Wellington St

I spoke with the guy who owns the flatbed/stage earlier today and be said he ain’t leaving no matter what happens. Guess the party will continue at a future date…
Down at Ottawa’s second hottest club, Rideau and Sussex, its surprisingly busy.

Decent crowd for a Monday night, and there is enough fuel to keep the party going for days.

As is par for the course, zero cops anywhere.

#cdnpoli #ottnews
There was one place in Ottawa where “enforcement” was taking place tonight.

A block away from Ottawa’s Second Hottest Club, Rideau and Sussex, bus cops were hassling a homeless women who was outside the Rideau LRT station.

You can hear the cop free dance party a block away
So the nightlife was meh tonight but the real story is over at the War Memorial tonight.

Protestors are still camped out there, with a tent that has a bed and propane in it. Many there tonight, were there on Sunday taking down the fence.

Once again, no cops. #cdnpoli #ottnews
It’s unfortunate there were no cops at the War Memorial tonight. They could have found one of the multiple “No Camping” signs placed around the War Memorial, in a bid to help them what section of the law they could enforce #cdnpoli #ottnews
As for the garbage that was placed within a stones throw of the (recently danced on) Tomb of the Unknown Soldier earlier today, it has been relocated to behind the hedges where the tent is set up. #cdnpoli #ottnews

Liberal MP Han Dong is alleged to have been helped by the Chinese consulate in Toronto during his 2019 nomination race, by bussing in seniors & students to vote for him, according to CSIS docs & sources

CSIS asked the PM's senior staff to rescind Dong's nomination, per sources
Through a combo of CSIS docs and intelligence sources, Global News has learned the consulate allegedly sent 2 busloads of Chinese Canadian Seniors to Liberal nomination meeting, and those seniors knew who to vote for, because Dong’s name was written on their arm #cdnpoli
Sources also say CSIS suspected that Chinese international students with faked addresses were bussed in to Don Valley North and “told by the PRC Consulate” to support Dong, “if they want(ed) to maintain their student visa status,” as per CSIS docs and intelligence sources

BREAKING – Justice Paul says the government met the threshold to bring in the Emergencies Act
“There was credible and compelling evidence supporting both subjective and objective reasonable belief in the existence of a public order emergency."
Here are some other key facts from the report.

Rouleau found on multiple league grounds the feds were justified on bringing in the EA. Cabinet had “credible and compelling information” that there was a “threat to the security of Canada” #cdnpoli
“The invocation of the Emergencies Act is a drastic move, but it is not a dictatorial one” said Rouleau. He went on to say, "I concluded that in this case, the very high threshold was met. I have done so with reluctance." #cdnpoli

Defence Minister Anita Anand Flying says the unidentified object was shot down at 3:41 PM ET.

It was flying at 40,000 FT and posed a threat to civilian threat. Shot down a 100 KM from the US Canada border over Yukon #cdnpoli
Anand says what was shot down appears to be a small cylindrical object, which was smaller than what was shot down over South Carolina.

Anand adds it was the first time that NORAD has ever downed an arial object. #cdnpoli
Anand says there is "no public concern" with the object flying over Canada, adding that the RCMP will recover and analyze the object

"The importance of this moment should not be understated" #cdnpoli

I'm watching the Federal Court hearing where Doug Ford and Sylvia Jones are fighting their summons to testify at the Public Order Emergency Commission looking into the use of the Emergencies Act. I'll tweet out some highlights #cdnpoli #ottnews
The lawyer representing Ford and Jones is arguing they have Parliamentary privileges allowing them not to be compelled to testify while the ON legislature is sitting, which gives them a “lawful excuse to not comply with the summons” from the POEC #cdnpoli #ottnews
The summons has put Ford and Jones in the “intolerable position of having to assert their privilege and potentially be faced with competed proceedings” as per their lawyer, adding that if they could face "irreparable harm" if a stay is not granted #cdnpoli #onpoli

Ontario Premier Doug Ford and former Solicitor General Sylvia Jones have been summoned to appear at the Public Order Emergency Commission, looking into the use of the Emergencies Act.

The commission says they will get confirmation later today if they will appear #cdnpoli
Both Jones and Ford have come up repeatedly in testimony

Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson said Ford didn't want anyone from the province to attend meetings with other levels of government to deal with the Convoy because it would be a "waste of time" #cdnpoli

Ottawa's top civil servant said Jones told him "(the Convoy) was a law enforcement matter, it wasn't for elected officials to get involved with that"

Back at St. Bridget's church, a local man went inside and sat on the stage

TUPOC director William Komer said the guy was trespassing and could be arrested by their private security, then the actually Ottawa Police showed up and arrested the guy #ottnews

fb.watch/fcVm3VqSiD/
As I outlined on Friday, the landlord put forward substantial evidence to show that TUPOC is actually trespassing.

Not sure how a random citizen can be arrested at the request of TUPOC members, who are also being accused of trespassing #ottnews

ctvnews.ca/canada/ottawa-…
As for the actual arrest itself, the guy was walking out of the church on his own, when he says to the cops “Nice to see you defend these guys, who shut down the city for a month”

The cop then asks for his name and he replies “you’re a fucking hero”

Then he gets arrested
