.@opsrecruiting was ignoring questions and blocking members of the public from engaging in discussions. This proved the very point the community continues to make about Ottawa Police being anti-community.
Today our team was blocked from engaging during this #askmeanything live. We asked questions on behalf of some young people who were interested in these answers. The questions were never answered and our team was blocked from the engaging. Below are screenshots of our questions.
JOIN ME & THE OUTREACH TEAM TOMORROW live on Instagram! Stay tuned Time TBD! YOU can ask us anything about policing or our application process! @OttawaPolice @opsrecruiting
