The Public Order Emergency Commission resumes public hearings Monday, with interim Ottawa police chief Steve Bell expected to testify. Bell is a veteran of the force and was deputy chief when the “Freedom Convoy” protests swept Ottawa in late January.

He has been the city’s interim chief since Peter Sloly resigned in mid-February.

Bell previously said he did not ask the federal government to invoke the Emergencies Act.

The inquiry’s ultimate goal is to examine the federal government’s decision to invoke the Emergencies Act three weeks during the convoy protests in the capital city and report on whether the unprecedented move was warranted.
