A day before the Trudeau government invoked the Emergencies Act, RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki prepared briefing notes for relevant ministers on the plan to clear protesters and relayed expert advice about the need for negotiation before using force, according to a document obtained by The Epoch Times.
“This group of experts has determined that there are crowd engagement and negotiation strategies that must be relied upon before the application of force would be justified,” say Lucki’s notes prepared for a Feb. 13 meeting of the Incident Response Group (IRG).
