A police officer who distributed the chief’s email address in an effort to whip up support for his wife as she faced disciplinary charges related to the “Freedom Convoy” protest in Ottawa has been disciplined.
A Durham police officer who distributed the chief’s email address in an effort to whip up support for his wife as she faced disciplinary charges related to last winter’sprotest in Ottawa has been docked 60 hours of pay after being found guilty of discreditable conduct.
“The rank structure within the Durham Regional Police Service is the backbone of the organization,” Elbers, a retired police officer, said. “It must be respected.” that expressed support for demonstrators as they converged on Ottawa to protest COVID-19 measures imposed by the government. That protest became a siege of the city that led to the federal government invoking the Emergency Measures Act to allow police to disperse protesters.
Elbers found that the Instagram post breached a Durham police policy that prohibits officers from jeopardizing the integrity or reputation of the force, or the safety of its members. He also concluded the post echoed far beyond the reaches of Harnum’s own circle of followers.
