Lucki was ready to go to Trudeau over Ottawa police handling of “Freedom Convoy”OTTAWA — Brenda Lucki not only lost confidence in the leadership of former Ottawa police chief Peter Sloly over the "Freedom Convoy" protests, the RCMP commissioner was so concerned she was prepared to go directly to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, a public inquiry learned Thursday. Notes taken at the Feb. 15 meeting show Lucki wanted the OPP to take over from Ottawa police. He stopped short of saying he had lost confidence in the force. "Between you and I only, (Government of Canada) is losing (or) lost confidence in OPS … we gotta get to safe action (or) enforcement," Lucki texted. On Thursday afternoon, Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino was asked outside the House of Commons whether he lost confidence in the Ottawa police back in February.
