Part II of our final report, After The Occupation: Change, is now available on our website. A siren call of 25 recommendations grouped under 8 calls to action, drawn from ten months of research, public hearings and grassroots consultations.

Given the extensive human rights abuses we documented in our @ottpeoplescomm hearings... "meritorious" indeed. International law is clear: when human rights are disregarded & violated, there must be justice, accountability & redress. That is what this lawsuit is all about.
Paul Champ@PaulChampLaw

Today the Court dismissed the 'Anti-SLAPP' motion by the defendants in the Convoy class action. Court found the plaintiffs have a "meritorious case" and there is evidence organizers intended to disrupt daily life in the city indefinitely thru extreme noise, blocking streets etc.

The City of Ottawa needs to earn the trust of Ottawa residents. To build confidence, demonstrate goodwill and begin to address issues that arose during the convoy occupation, the City needs to engage with residents and community associations to create the way forward.

When your "can you repeat the question, please?" face gets captured in a photo 😅 Shout out to @David_Moscrop for hosting an amazing opening night event at @Writersfest! It was great chatting about the Rouleau Inquiry and @ottpeoplescomm alongside you and Paul Wells.

Community organizations and associations often end up as front line responders during emergencies. With robust financial support, they can work collaboratively and collectively to support initiatives to counter hate and division and promote equity, justice and cooperation.

Even more jarring is the contrast between the welcome mat that was rolled out by @ottawacity for a convoy that occupied and terrorized our city for a month compared to the heavy-handed approach for #Ottawa residents on a legal and lawful strike. 8/11

The City must also ensure staff and community partners operating these services have the necessary resources and protections needed during any crisis.

Centretown Community Health Centre
Housing is lifesaving and care for unhoused people is more important than ever. Need for these services is increasing, and that is why #OttawaNeedsMore.
Alliance to End Homelessness Ottawa@OttawaAlliance

Help Ottawa receive its fair share of provincial homelessness funding. Without it, #OttCity will have to cancel permanent supportive housing for those on the street. #OttawaNeedsMore ✍🏻 Write your representative: shorturl.at/jtxQW

The convoy occupation exposed the lack of effective standards and institutional mechanisms to protect fundamental human rights for local residents including the rights to non-discrimination, health care, adequate housing, security of the person, and to a livelihood.

Earning residents’ trust requires an admission by officials of the harm they caused through their failure to act during the occupation, an expression of sincere regret, a recognition of their accountability to the people of Ottawa.

Service providers and community groups were on the front lines during the occupation, struggling to provide vital support to vulnerable people in our communities. They need to be adequately funded to ensure our communities are resilient during crises.

Mental health services, transit services, anti-racism and gender equality initiatives, income support, provision of housing, harm reduction initiatives… all these programs are vital to our community and are designed to enhance human rights protections.
