On Tuesday, Ottawa Police Chief Peter Sloly resigned amid continuous truck driver protests against Covid vaccination restrictions that have clogged downtown in Canada's capital city.
On Tuesday afternoon, Ottawa Police Services Board chair Diane Deans formally announced Sloly's departure, stating Sloly and the Board "reached a mutually agreed upon separation."
In an interview with News Talk 580 radio last week, Sloly stated that he had "absolutely no intention" of resigning, adding, "I came here to perform a job, and I'm going to get that job done all the way through." Sloly, on the other hand, announced on Tuesday that he is stepping down as police chief "with a sad heart."
"Since the beginning of this demonstration, I have done all in my power to keep this city safe and put an end to it."
