Nova Scotia mass shooting: Public inquiry issues RCMP new subpoena for information
The public inquiry investigating the 2020 Nova Scotia mass shooting has issued a new subpoena to the RCMP, following concerns the federal police force has withheld documents related to the deaths of 22 people.
The subpoena issued July 4 is one of several followup subpoenas sent to the RCMP for files relevant to the inquiry into the rampage on April 18-19, 2020, senior inquiry counsel Emily Hill said Thursday in an email.
The public inquiry -- the Mass Casualty Commission -- continues to "seek assurance that nothing else is being held back," Hill said, adding that counsel is conducting an ongoing audit to determine the level of RCMP compliance in releasing information.
Hill was referring to comments on June 24 by Barbara McLean, the inquiry's investigations director, who said she and her colleagues were seeking an explanation from the federal Justice Department for why four pages of notes written by a senior Mountie were withheld for several months.
The four pages, handwritten by Supt. Darren Campbell, allege that during a meeting shortly after the mass shooting, RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki told those present that she had promised the federal Public Safety Department and the Prime Minister's Office that information on the guns used by the shooter would be released because it was "tied to pending gun control legislation."
The documents describing Lucki's alleged comments were not included in the 132 pages of Campbell's notes shared with the commission in February 2022. The missing pages were submitted on May 31. The superintendent's notes sparked controversy in Ottawa, when the opposition Tories and New Democrats accused the governing Liberals of interfering in a police investigation for political gain -- assertions denied by the government and Lucki.
The Nova Scotia RCMP detachment has so far been issued several followup subpoenas for material that was not found in the investigative files submitted by the federal police force, Hill said.
In total, the commission has issued more than 80 subpoenas to various parties since March 2021, Hill said in a media briefing Thursday, adding that she and her colleagues will continue to use the power of subpoena "to get the documents we need to do our work."

Lucki and Blair deny allegations of political interference in N.S. mass shooting investigation

A strong denial on Monday of any political interference by the Liberal government in the Nova Scotia mass shooting investigation.
The House of Commons standing committee on public safety and national security heard from RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki and former Public Safety Minister Bill Blair on Monday.
Committee members are searching for answers regarding whether or not there was government pressure to release the details to the public on the guns used in the 13-hour rampage that began in Portapique on April 18th, 2020. Twenty-two lives were lost.
Bill Blair, a former police officer and chief, remained steadfast in his belief that at no time was there any political pressure.
“I’ll reiterate that at no time did I cross that line. I did not direct the commissioner of the RCMP and I did not have any private conversation with her in which that was done,” Blair says. “The commissioner did not promise me that she would do this. I think the commissioner understood her job, and her job was to serve the people of Canada and the people of Nova Scotia, to give them information that they desperately needed and wanted with respect to the terrible tragedy that had taken place there.”

The allegations surfaced last month when handwritten notes penned by RCMP Supt. Darren Campbell during an April 28th meeting with Lucki were released in a report published by the mass casualty commission.
The notes indicated Lucki was upset the details were not included in a press conference citing a “promise” made to the Prime Minister’s Office and Blair, ahead of the Liberal government’s impending gun control legislation.
Cumberland/Colchester MP Dr. Stephen Ellis, who is the Conservative shadow minister for public safety and member of the committee, says the goal of today’s meeting is to get answers.
“All of this leads us to believe that there are back-room deals, and a lack of political integrity from the Liberal government on how they deal with the RCMP,” says Ellis.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has also denied the allegations. Blair was moved to the Emergency Preparedness portfolio last October.
“I want to be very clear. I did not direct the RCMP. I did not direct them in their operations or in their communications,” Blair says.
RCMP cruisers parked in front of Portapique Beach Road during the NS mass shooting that claimed 22 lives in April 2020.
Meantime, Lucki says there was, of course, pressure given it was the worst mass shooting in Canada’s history. She says there was also frustration over the media reporting details before police regarding the number of fatalities and even the background of the perpetrator, for example.
She explained that did not mean there was interference on a political level.
“First of all, there was pressure for every single bit of information related to this incident, the number of deceased, where the deceased were located, who the deceased were, the background of the deceased, the perpetrator, the background of the perpetrator, the perpetrator’s common-law spouse … it went on and on,” Lucki says. “It was relentless, especially from the media.”
She was questioned on why in the days after the mass shooting she pivoted from not wanting details on the firearms to be released due to the active nature of the investigation to calling for the information to be made public. Lucki says it was due to the fact that the details were changing rapidly, even hourly, when it came to the investigation.
She says at every press conference new information would be released.
Lucki believes the allegations stem from miscommunication, adding she’s a calm person who at no time got upset that the details were not given out.
“There were a lot of issues we were having with the flow of communication. Whether or not it was released was not my concern. Somebody asked me if it was going to be a part of it. I asked them, and they said yes, and it wasn’t,” Lucki says. “We were getting criticized by the media at every angle for the lack of timely information.”

Will the mass casualty commission report even matter?
Last week, Examiner editor Tim Bousquet asked 'What's the point of the Mass Casualty Commission?' In his column today, Stephen Kimber offers a (slightly) more hopeful take. He says it's too soon to know.

So… is it already too late for the Mass Casualty Commission’s final report to matter?
Was its credibility irreparably shredded even before it began, thanks to the circumstances of its unwanted-by-governments birth? By its ever-escalating costs? By the encyclopedic weight of its mandate? By its slowness in beginning its public hearings? By its overly trauma-informed interpretation of how it should go about its business? By its seemingly restrictive rules around questioning important witnesses? By endless, earnest research reports, expert opinions, round-table discussions and panels delving into broader social issues like domestic violence that few seemed to pay attention to and even fewer believed the commission’s consideration would improve? By the by-now inevitable cover-up conspiracy theories that have dogged its every decision? By an unrealistic, too tight deadline to complete its work.
My own answer to my first question is that we don’t simply know. Not yet.
Let’s circle back to those other issues.
The public inquiry into the horrific mass murders of April 2020 did not get off to an auspicious start. Neither Ottawa nor the provincial government wanted one. Instead, they announced a review they could limit and control.
The families of the victims rightly pushed back, the governments eventually backed down and created a public inquiry with a broad mandate and a restricted timeline.
The families’ success in forcing governments to change their minds gave some among them a sense of empowerment and entitlement. They felt they now had the right to direct the process.
But the inquiry’s broad mandate (“causes, context and circumstances”) meant that this was never just about them or the deaths of their individual loved ones. Intimate partner violence, family violence, gun regulations, police responses, public alert systems…
At the same time, the inquiry’s restricted timeline — its work is supposed to be done and dusted by November 1, less than two years after it began — created an impossible burden for the commission.
Oh, and then there was COVID. The mass shooting happened early in the pandemic and the inquiry’s work was inevitably slowed and hampered by its ongoing impact.
Oh, and then there was its trauma-informed mandate. That’s a reflection — for good and ill — of the times in which we live. But the commissioners’ understandable desire not to retraumatize families already traumatized by the events of April 2020 quickly smacked up against the reality that many of those same families felt they were being more re-traumatized by the commissioners’ attempts to protect them.
Instead, the main beneficiaries of the commission’s trauma-informed approach seem to be some RCMP officers whose union and lawyers asked for special treatment for them.
It’s worth noting that only six witnesses asked for accommodation to testify. One was denied outright, two were allowed to testify as a panel and three were granted various other levels of accommodation.
So far as we know, none of the Mounties’ most senior officers — the ultimate decision-makers — have been excused or will be accommodated. Darren Campbell and C/Supt. Chris Leather will testify for two days each this week. In late August, Lee Bergerman and Brenda Lucki are scheduled to appear
That said, the inquiry’s timeline means not every question will ultimately be resolved by testimony and/or cross-examination.
Let’s consider two examples.
Two on-the-ground RCMP officers provided investigators with different accounts of what they did in the first seven minutes after they arrived at the scene where Heather O’Brien had just been shot by the killer.
Their memories of which one did what when in those chaotic minutes differ. Each remembers being the one to open O’Brien’s car door, check her pulse and believe — briefly — that she might be alive.
What appeared to make that discrepancy significant was the fact that O’Brien’s family later said they had data indicating her FitBit continued to show a pulse hours later.
Did the police leave her to die?
The commission didn’t call either officer to provide public testimony. Why not?
Well, consider their full statements to investigators and then fast forward to how those first six minutes ended.
One officer, a trained medic, who initially said he’d thought he’d detected a pulse with his thumb had called for a LifeFlight air ambulance.
His partner, also a trained medic, wasn’t so sure. Given the gravity of her injuries, he wondered if what his partner had felt was the result of his own adrenaline, or perhaps the result of hopeful tunnel vision.
He suggested they perform “a systematic parallel check of the pulse at her carotid, brachial, and femoral arteries for 10 to 15 seconds each. They did not detect a pulse. Cpl. Ivany then conducted a pupil check with his flashlight and found them unresponsive. Due to these findings, and the severity of her injuries, he determined that Ms. O’Brien was deceased.”
The commission did call the chief medical examiner, who ultimately conducted the autopsy on O’Brien, as a witness. His expert testimony — based on 16 years’ experience — was that her death had been instantaneous or had occurred within minutes.
The unscientific FitBit data didn’t change his view.
He was, it should be noted, cross-examined.
The other example involves retired RCMP constable Troy Maxwell, who responded to a 2013 complaint from Brenda Forbes about GW, the man who would become the mass killer.
We have testimony from Forbes, that the complaint involved an alleged domestic assault by the killer on Lisa Banfield, his common-law spouse.
Maxwell denied that to investigators. He claimed the complaint had been about the killer driving dangerously on local roads in a replica Mountie car.
In her own testimony, Banfield not only confirmed the assault happened as Forbes had described but also testified that the killer didn’t own a replica RCMP car until six years later.
That’s a significantly different version of events. And it’s important because it raises questions about how seriously the Mounties took allegations of domestic abuss, including, in particular, by GW himself.
Maxwell was called to testify. He stuck to his original story, but during cross-examination by one of the lawyers for the families — yes, they were able to ask questions — he offered a telling explanation of why he hadn’t bothered to seek statements from those whose names he wrote down, including Banfield’s, before closing the file.
“We don’t have the ability to sit around and say, ‘Oh yeah, we’re going to spend an hour on this,’” he testified.
We don’t know what the commissioners will make of Maxwell’s testimony — or, really, anything else they’ve heard. Other than emphasizing that the inquiry is trauma-informed, they haven’t said much.
They will have plenty to consider. There are now more than 60 so-called foundational documents, supplementary reports and policy documents, deep dives into everything from minute-by-minute accounts of what happened when during the killer’s rampage, to his family and personal history of violence, to his financial misdealings. Those documents include cross-referenced investigator interviews, statements, audio recordings, photos, transcripts of police calls, etc.
And all are available to anyone with just a few mouse clicks. They’re worth a read.
Despite suggestions from some critics that the commission was created to exonerate the RCMP, those documents paint a damning picture of police incompetence and failure at every level.
The commissioners will have all of that to consider.
Plus, there are close to 20 more research and technical reports on everything from “Communications Interoperability and the Alert Ready System,” to “Crime Prevention and Community Safety in Rural Communities,” to “Police and First Responder Decision-making During Mass Casualty Events.”
Not to forget the transcripts of all the roundtables and panels that have occupied the commissioners’ attention during the public hearings.
Does any of that matter?
In Thursday’s Morning File, my colleague, a frustrated Tim Bousquet, who has probably spent more time and energy covering this story than almost any other journalist, asked “What’s the point?”
For sure, the inquiry has helped us understand what happened before and during the murders of April 18 and 19, 2020. There is a veritable treasure trove of documentation released, the likes of which I’ve never seen publicly available before.
And the inquiry is at least raising important questions about the “why?” of it all, questioning that looks at issues of policing, emergency responses, care for first responders, how next-of-kin notifications work, intimate partner violence, political and bureaucratic intervention in police operations, and more.
In November, the three commissioners will release their final report, including a long list of recommendations. I have no doubt the recommendations will be thoughtful, and also that they will mostly be ignored.
He may be right.
But he may not be.
Many people, including some critics of the current commission, consider the 1990 Royal Commission on the Donald Marshall, Jr., Prosecution to be the “gold standard” for such inquiries.
We tend to remember its key factual finding — that Marshall, who’d spent more than a decade in prison for a murder he didn’t commit, was failed by the criminal justice system…
at virtually every turn, from his arrest and wrongful conviction for murder in 1971 up to, and even beyond, his acquittal by the Court of Appeal in 1983. The tragedy of the failure is compounded by evidence that this miscarriage of justice could — and should — have been prevented, or at least corrected quickly, if those involved in the system had carried out their duties in a professional and/or competent manner. That they did not is due, in part at least, to the fact that Donald Marshall, Jr. is a Native.
But, as the commission itself pointed out a few paragraphs later, its role was not…
just to determine whether one individual was the victim of a miscarriage of justice, or even to get to the bottom of how and why that miscarriage occurred. The Nova Scotia Government, which appointed this Royal Commission on October 28, 1986, also asked us to “make recommendations” to help prevent such tragedies from happening in the future.
The commission’s final report, which ran to seven volumes, included research studies that — like the various research reports and roundtables of the current mass casualty commission — were largely ignored by the media and the public as they unfolded. But they helped shape the most far-reaching of the report’s 82 recommendations.
These covered legal procedures for righting wrongful convictions, as well as new criminal justice system policies regarding visible minorities, and police. They recommended, for example, that the Crown make full and timely disclosure to the defence of all relevant information. The commission also recommended that public provincial prosecutors remain totally independent from any political interference. These prosecutors, argued the commission, should be answerable only to a province’s legislature, not the attorney general. In the case of federal prosecutors, they are answerable to Canada’s Parliament…
The Marshall Inquiry’s recommendations led to the creation of the first independent public prosecution service in Canada. As well, the Nova Scotia Barristers’ Society established its first race relations committee. The inquiry and its recommendations helped bring more inclusion and diversity to Nova Scotia’s and Canada’s law schools and public service.
No one will pretend the Marshall report ended racism in the criminal justice system in Nova Scotia, or that all its recommendations were implemented.
As Michelle Williams, the then-chair of the Dal Law School’s Indigenous Blacks a& Mi’kmaq program — itself a result of the report — told a 2018 panel on the report’s impact: “Many of the Marshall Commission’s recommendations have yet to be implemented… There are no specific restorative justice programs. Black and Indigenous peoples are still overrepresented in the criminal justice system.”
Still… I think it’s fair to say the Marshall commission not only led to some significant positive changes but also changed the conversation around race in Nova Scotia.
Can the Mass Casualty Commission do the same for issues around gun violence and gender-based violence?
I don’t know.
It will depend.
On the report that the commissioners write.
On the willingness of governments to address the recommendations.
And on our own individual and collective commitment as citizens to push for change.
I live in hope.

What’s the point of the Mass Casualty Commission?

What’s the point?
That’s the question I keep asking myself about the Mass Casualty Commission, as the commissioners, the many lawyers (so many, I’ve lost count), the relatives of the victims, the police, the academic experts, the reporters, and the public participate in the months-long inquiry.
For sure, the inquiry has helped us understand what happened before and during the murders of April 18 and 19, 2020. There is a veritable treasure trove of documentation released, the likes of which I’ve never seen publicly available before.
And the inquiry is at least raising important questions about the “why?” of it all, questioning that looks at issues of policing, emergency responses, care for first responders, how next-of-kin notifications work, intimate partner violence, political and bureaucratic intervention in police operations, and more.
I’m a reporter. It’s my job to cover all these issues, and in that tiny prism of insight, I’ve learned a lot and hopefully explained to the public in an intelligible manner some of what I’ve learned.
But again: what’s the point?
In November, the three commissioners will release their final report, including a long list of recommendations. I have no doubt the recommendations will be thoughtful, and also that they will mostly be ignored.
Oh, any recommendations about buying cops new gear and increasing police budgets will be latched upon with enthusiasm by the RCMP and its supporters. Post-inquiry, probably a bunch of money will be spent on stuff we didn’t need an inquiry to tell us to do — radio equipment and emergency alert systems will be upgraded, consultants will write new internal RCMP policies about active shooters in rural areas, and already overworked general duty cops will be saddled with more training and paperwork. But whatever lessons are learned from Portapique won’t apply to the next mass murder, and all too soon we’ll be going through this whole process again.
So far as any commission recommendations that involve institutional or societal change go, the commissioners will be thanked for their work, patted on their heads, and sent on their way. And the RCMP will continue to be the same broken bureaucracy it’s always been, and we’ll continue to have the same broken, sexist society we’ve always had.
Maybe this process will bring closure to those who have lost loved ones? We might hope so, but it won’t. That’s not how this ends. No matter what the commission does, those family members will continue to carry pain and anger, and will continue to have questions about the unanswerable. Long after this inquiry is over and the rest of the world moves on to whatever comes next, those who have lost will continue to shoulder their enormously heavy losses.
For now, we’re spending tens of millions of dollars on the inquiry, and everybody gets a slice of the pie. The commissioners themselves get their six-figure salaries, as judges do. The lawyers get their hourly rate, as lawyers do. The academics land some commissioned contracts, as academics do. A litany of support staff (communications and tech staff, security, venue cooks and janitors, etc.) get much-needed work in these difficult financial times, as support staff do. And reporters get a bunch of assignments at shit pay, as reporters do.
That’s not criticism, and it’s especially not criticism of those who are just working their damn jobs and trying to survive. We all need to eat. But let’s not ignore that we’re spending those tens of millions of dollars on this public process and not on some other public need, like providing housing or addressing the climate crisis. We should think about what we value, and what we don’t value so much.
I feel like I’m playing something more than an observer’s role in a public ritual that sometimes borders on Shirley Jackson’s The Lottery — someone is selected for the daily stoning, and we all join in to appease whatever god we think we’ve been neglecting.
Maybe the metaphorical stoning is deserved. It’s impossible not to fault those who were aware of the violence inflicted upon Lisa Banfield and did nothing, or those who had knowledge of the killer’s illegal weapons and failed to report them. Clearly, there were multiple policing failures by many individual cops. There’s a lot of blame to go around, and I’ve tossed my fair share of stones.
Yet I often come out of the daily proceedings of the inquiry not so much angry about this or that person, but rather disappointed with humanity in general. We’re a messy species, full of contradictions and pain and weird desires and strange motivations, and we’re not very capable of deep thought or changing our ways. All that messiness plays out every day in eight billion little dramas across the full spectrum of tragedy and comedy, but it takes a terrible mass murder before we give it any real scrutiny.
Which is to say, I don’t know what the fuck the point of this is.
There was a terrible loss of life, and too much pain to be privately contained. The hurt is enormous, and inescapable. So as messy humans do, we ritualize it with an inquiry.
And I report on it, because that’s what I do. And because I’m a messy human too, some of my reporting is better and some worse. I sometimes don’t give enough attention to things that deserve more attention, and sometimes give too much attention to things that deserve less. I have my own interests, my own insights and lack thereof, my own skills and inabilities.
Sometimes a few stones are tossed in my direction. I won’t go into this at any depth, but I will say that it’s my job as an editor to make informed judgment calls about what to publish and what not to publish, and there are reasons for those decisions. I can’t always make those reasons public, but I try to do this work with integrity, and it has to be left there. I won’t get in a pissing match about it.
Anyway, next week RCMP Supt. Darren Campbell and C/Supt. Chris Leather will testify, for two days each. So I’ll be covering that in depth. And then I’m going to take a mini vacation before returning in late August for the testimony of Lee Bergerman and Brenda Lucki.
My apologies for being a bit disjointed here. But if you value the Examiner’s reporting on the inquiry and everything else, please consider subscribing. Subscribers make this work possible. Thank you!

Despite witness accounts, Mounties couldn’t believe mass shooter had replica RCMP car
:format(webp)/https://www.thestar.com/content/dam/thestar/news/canada/2022/07/25/despite-witness-accounts-mounties-couldnt-believe-mass-shooter-had-replica-rcmp-car/_main.jpg)
HALIFAX—The RCMP didn’t immediately follow up on reports that a killer was driving a replica police car because it was inconceivable to officers that someone could have meticulously replicated one, a senior RCMP officer on Monday told the inquiry into the mass shooting in Nova Scotia.
Darren Campbell, now the RCMP chief superintendent in New Brunswick, was, in April 2020, the senior Mountie in Nova Scotia in charge of the mass killing, in which Gabriel Wortman killed 22 people before he was shot dead by police.
In the days that followed, Campbell would be the most public face of the RCMP, the one who conducted the majority of briefings on the police force’s investigation.
In the first call to 911 on the night of April 18, Jamie Blair, the second of the killer’s victims, said the person who had just shot her husband was her neighbour, that he had a replica police car, which was decaled and labelled RCMP, and that he was not a police officer.
Further witnesses that night, including the Blair and McCully children, and Andrew and Kate MacDonald — Andrew was shot in the shoulder by the killer — confirmed those details.
Yet the police, in their communications that night, downplayed the possibility that the killer might be driving a replica RCMP car, instead checking to see if one of their own cars had gone missing, and then introducing the idea that they were looking for a decommissioned police car — a white Ford Taurus — something the gunman was known to collect.
The information that the car was, in fact, an exact replica of an RCMP vehicle, marked and decaled, was not passed along, an oversight that Campbell said could have made a significant difference in how the police went about looking for the killer.
Campbell likened police communications on that subject to a game of “Telephone,” where a relayed message gets distorted as it is passed from person to person.
Mass Casualty Commission counsel Rachel Young asked Campbell if he saw the failure to pass on the details about the vehicle as a significant breakdown in the gathering and sharing of information on that night.
“What I think happened — which is, I think, an element of human nature and perhaps biases that are created through our own experiences — is that the realistic possibility of someone creating a replica police car was probably lost on individuals,” Campbell said.
“The likelihood of someone who had created that to a degree in which the perpetrator did … my sense is, is that that was a factor that contributed to that miscommunication.”
He said that in his 32 years of policing, he had never encountered someone who had created a replica police car. Had he been responding directly to the incident himself, he said, he likely would have made the same assumptions about the witness reports.
“If they had known that we were looking for (a marked RCMP car), if they had made that assessment and communicated, ‘Everyone, we are looking for a marked police car. Whether it’s real or not, we don’t know.’ Certainly, that would have made a difference,” he told the commission.
“Without understanding that, any responding officer could have seen a police vehicle in the area and just thought they were another responding police vehicle. And we could have missed an opportunity for engaging the individual.”
But Campbell would not go so far as to say that what multiple witnesses described to police was actually a replica RCMP car.
“Would you agree that from those first, earliest moments of the mass casualty, witnesses told the (Operational Communications Centre) and the RCMP that there was a replica cruiser out there?” asked inquiry counsel Rachel Young.
“Not a replica cruiser. No, I wouldn’t agree with that,” replied Campbell. “But they mentioned that there was a police car, and it was (decaled) and labelled RCMP.”
“And it was not a police officer. That I would agree with. But to characterize it as a replica police car … there’s no information in there to suggest it was a replica police car.”
That prompted an outburst, “Oh, come on!” from someone in attendance at the inquiry.
Campbell suggested that a better system of operational communications should give officers direct access to the witness statements, rather than have them rely on information passed on from officer to officer.
Controversy erupted around Campbell last month when his handwritten notes on a teleconference held with RCMP commissioner Brenda Lucki days after the mass casualty were made public by the inquiry.
In the meeting between the Nova Scotia RCMP contingent and its national counterparts, Campbell’s notes documented a browbeating from Lucki following his decision to not release details on the guns used in the shooting. Campbell had said that releasing that information would have compromised the RCMP investigation.
According to those notes, Lucki told the N.S. contingent that she’d promised then-public safety minister Bill Blair and the Prime Minister’s Office that those details would be released.
“The commissioner was obviously upset,” Campbell wrote in his notes.
“The commissioner accused us (me) of disrespecting her by not following her instructions.”
“Some in the room were reduced to tears and were emotional over this belittling reprimand,” he added later in his notes.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government was, at the time, in the process of pushing through an order-in-council that would ban the sale of 1,500 models of assault-style firearms.
That revelation led to accusations of Lucki — and, by extension, Blair and Trudeau — interfering with the Nova Scotia RCMP’s investigation. Critics called for Lucki’s resignation.
All three have denied any interference in the investigation. Lucki and Blair appeared Monday before a House of Commons committee investigating those allegations.
At the same time, the RCMP came under further criticism when the MCC revealed that the four pages of Campbell’s notes that documented that teleconference had been omitted when it first submitted those notes to the inquiry.
Campbell’s testimony to the commission Monday did not cover the controversy. He is scheduled to be before the inquiry again Tuesday.

Senior N.S. Mountie says Ottawa did not act on request for review of mass shooting response
Supt. Darren Campbell testifying before the public inquiry on Monday and Tuesday
Supt. Darren Campbell is testifying Monday before the Mass Casualty Commission leading the public inquiry into the killings on April 18-19, 2020, when a gunman shot and killed 22 people over 13 hours in several communities throughout the province. The victims include a pregnant woman and an RCMP officer.
Campbell was the support services officer at the time of the shootings, which made him the third-highest ranked Mountie in the province. He handled most of the public briefings after April 19, 2020, and was in charge of bringing in critical incident resources like incident commanders and the emergency response team.
Twenty-two
people died on April 18 and 19, 2020. Top row from left: Gina Goulet,
Dawn Gulenchyn, Jolene Oliver, Frank Gulenchyn, Sean McLeod, Alanna
Jenkins. Second row: John Zahl, Lisa McCully, Joey Webber, Heidi
Stevenson, Heather O'Brien and Jamie Blair. Third row from top: Kristen
Beaton, Lillian Campbell, Joanne Thomas, Peter Bond, Tom Bagley and Greg
Blair. Bottom row: Emily Tuck, Joy Bond, Corrie Ellison and Aaron Tuck.
(CBC)
After Campbell met with key responders and managers who were on during the mass shooting, including retired staff sergeants Jeff West and Kevin Surette, who were the incident commanders, he said he wanted an independent assessment of the Nova Scotia response.
On a "number of occasions" Campbell approached the national unit handling contract and Indigenous policing in Ottawa for this review, he said, which would ideally be done by critical incident commanders from outside the RCMP who had trained through the Canadian Police College.
He wrote a formal letter asking for this review and it went up to the deputy commissioner of the unit, but Campbell said he never received a formal response. Campbell said he got the sense Ottawa was wondering whether a review would be duplicating efforts of the Mass Casualty Commission.
"I was disappointed, because I saw utility and value in having other Canadian critical incident commanders look at what we did to identify what we did properly, and to identify any gaps that could be addressed immediately," Campbell said.
When asked by commission counsel whether he could have launched an internal Nova Scotia RCMP review of the response, Campbell said it's important to go outside of the province to ensure those looking at what happened can be objective.
Campbell unsatisfied with firearm investigation
Campbell told the commission he is unsatisfied with the investigation into how Gabriel Wortman obtained firearms and brought them into Canada.
"In terms of those that assisted him, I would say for me, personally, I'm not satisfied that we've been able to conclude what I believe the expectations of survivors and victim families would expect and personally, me as a police officer and investigator, what I would wish to accomplish, in terms of the provision of firearms. That is the outstanding element for me."
Campbell confirmed in his testimony that any U.S. investigations into the gunman's acquisition of firearms are now closed.
A CBC investigation found that at least two people in Maine may have broken U.S. federal laws by helping the gunman obtain firearms.
After police shot and killed the gunman at a gas station in Enfield, N.S., they found five firearms in his possession. Investigators traced three to Houlton, Maine, a town near the New Brunswick border.
Court records and documents released by the commission suggested a longtime friend in the small town gave him one handgun, and that Wortman took another from the man's home. The gunman also arranged to buy a high-powered rifle for cash after attending a gun show there.
Under U.S. law, it is illegal for an American to transfer, sell, trade, give, transport or deliver a firearm to someone they know is not a U.S. resident.
The two remaining guns found in Wortman's possession after his death included Const. Heidi Stevenson's service pistol and a pistol bequeathed to him by his friend, former Fredericton lawyer Tom Evans.
Campbell said while officers are no longer actively investigating the Portapique case, the investigation has not been officially closed, and police will still take action if new information is received.
Leather testifying later this week
Campbell said his bosses at the time, Chief Supt. Chris Leather and former commanding officer Lee Bergerman, would have been aware of his request, but he did not know if they supported it or had conversations about it.
The commission's outline for this week indicates Campbell's testimony Monday and Tuesday will cover topics including public communications during and after the rampage and other context.
The force has been widely criticized for not providing information to the public about the gunman's movements in a replica RCMP cruiser in a more timely manner. The Mounties relied on social media to provide updates and didn't notify the public that the gunman was driving a replica police car for more than two hours after confirming the information.
Chief Supt. Chris Leather was the second-highest ranking Mountie in Nova Scotia at the time of the shootings. (CBC)
Families of the victims have also been critical of the information provided to them about their loved ones during and after the shootings.
Campbell's handwritten notes taken during a meeting on April 28, 2020, touched off a political firestorm when they were released by the commission in June. The notes described a conference call with RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki, who berated the Nova Scotia management team for failing to disclose the types of firearms used by the gunman.
Campbell's notes indicated Lucki made a comment about promising the Prime Minister's Office and minister of public safety that information would be released. At the time, the federal Liberal government was getting ready to introduce new gun control legislation.
The federal opposition parties are accusing Lucki of applying political pressure to the Nova Scotia investigators to help the federal government build its case.
Lucki and former public safety minister Bill Blair will both appear Monday before a House of Commons committee investigating the allegations of political interference.
Leather, the second-highest ranking Mountie in Nova Scotia at the time of the shootings, will also appear before the committee. He is then scheduled to testify before the commission in Nova Scotia on Wednesday and Thursday.
The commission's schedule indicates Leather will be questioned about "internal and inter-agency communication" after the shootings.

Full Testimony: RCMP's Brenda Lucki on alleged political interference in N.S. massacre investigation
7 Comments
RCMP HQ refused top officer's request for independent review of Nova Scotia shooting: inquiry
Supt. Darren Campbell's notes suggested that RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki had chastised officers investigating the rampage for not releasing details on the guns used by the killer
RCMP
Supt. Derek Campbell testifies Monday, July 25 , at the Nova Scotia
Mass Casualty Commission. His handwritten notes made in the days after
the shooting are key to allegations of political interference in the
investigation by the federal government. Photo by THE CANADIAN PRESS/Andrew Vaughan One of the top RCMP officers involved in responding to Nova Scotia’s mass-shooting rampage in 2020 says he pushed repeatedly to have an independent review of how the incident was handled — only for national headquarters to reject his request.
Chief Supt. Darren Campbell told the federal-provincial inquiry examining the episode Monday he sent emails and a formal letter to highers-up in Ottawa asking for a review by police critical-incident experts not connected to those involved.
Past experience told him that such an outside review — including even officers from other police forces — is more valuable than an internal one, he said.
Campbell said he eventually got the sense that officials in RCMP headquarters felt that the Mass Casualty Commission was already in the works and they did not want a separate police review as well. But he said he believed that could have been useful, providing advice that could have been implemented long before the still-ongoing inquiry is completed.
“I was disappointed because for me as a program manager, I saw utility and value in having other Canadian critical incident commanders to look at what we did … identify gaps that could be identified immediately,” he told the commission.
As head of support services in the RCMP’s H division in Nova Scotia, Campbell oversaw the force’s critical-incident program in the province.
He said he did have a meeting with about 20 of the critical-incident commanders and other senior officers involved in responding to the rampage, but that no report or summary came out of the session. There was a sense of “disillusionment” among the group, said Campbell.
“I looked every one of them in the eye,” he testified. “I do believe every one did everything they could, they did their best and they felt awful about what happened.”
Campbell also revealed he thought it was important for the RCMP to continue releasing what information it could on the incident as time wore on, but that headquarters told H division in late 2020 to no longer do so.
Commissioner Brenda Lucki herself cancelled “at the last minute” tentative plans he had made to be interviewed by CBC’s Fifth Estate program that September, the inquiry heard.
“I was in favour (of doing the interview) largely because of the fact it was clear to me there was much interest in what happened. I mean, it was a catastrophic series of events that many people had questions about,” Campbell testified.
“My concern always was that If we don’t say anything there’s this perception that we’re hiding something. I didn’t want that perception to become a reality.”
National headquarters directed in December that the Nova Scotia division put out no more information on the case, and leave any releases to the newly announced inquiry, he said.
In other testimony, Campbell suggested the that RCMP in Nova Scotia is woefully under-staffed, despite the fact it mainly polices rural areas with long distances between calls.
He had cited 2019 statistics in an earlier report that indicated Halifax municipal police have 209 officers per 100,000 population and the force in Truro, N.S., 286. By contrast, the RCMP in Colchester, N.S., have 76 for every 100,000 people.
“We’re policing rural areas with half the resources of our municipal counterparts who have a much more geographically confined area of responsibility,” said Campbell. “It affects our response times, it affects public safety, it affects officer safety as well.”
Although he didn’t specify how those numbers might have affected response to the April 2020 shooting spree — which saw two officers and 20 other people killed — he said it is an important issue for the commission to address.
“To say it as simply as I possibly can, every single day I always have concerns over the level of resources on our front lines,” said the officer, who is now based in New Brunswick. “I believe wholeheartedly that we are considerably understaffed in order to be able to meet the expectations the public has of us and to make sure our responding officers out there are promptly supported.”
Staffing levels are generally determined by contracts with the province and municipalities and “what communities are willing to pay for and support.”
Campbell’s testimony has been hotly anticipated because of comments he made in notes of a meeting with Lucki 10 days after the mass shooting that ignited charges of political interference in the investigation.
Campbell suggested in the notes that Lucki had chastised local officers investigating the April 2020 rampage for not releasing details on the type of guns used by the killer.
Lucki indicated that she had promised Public Safety Minister Bill Blair and the prime minister’s office that such information would be divulged, and tied the issue to the looming introduction of new gun-control legislation.
Campbell told the commissioner that he had ordered officers not to release the firearms information, out of fear it might jeopardize an investigation still trying to determine where the guns originated, according to his notes. His record of the meeting was released by the Mass-Casualty Commission.
The meeting between Lucki and local RCMP commanders took place 10 days after the shooting rampage through rural Nova Scotia, which left 22 people dead, several others injured and houses destroyed.
Opposition critics accused the Liberal government of interfering in an active police investigation, but Blair denied that he or anyone else in government had pressured the force.
Lucki released a statement saying she regretted her language in the meeting with Campbell, but also insisted there was no political interference.
“It was a tense discussion, and I regret the way I approached the meeting and the impact it had on those in attendance. My need for information should have been better weighed against the seriousness of the circumstances they were experiencing.”
On the other hand, a report released by the inquiry last month argues that the RCMP waited too long to release critical information about the shooting, including the types of firearms used.

Hardly anyone at #MCC today! Maybe that’s because they have the same
panelists, repeating the same information…..just a different spin on
it. If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck….. Maybe some real
witnesses would be more helpful!

THANK YOU for contacting the Toronto Star Public Editor's office.
This office handles queries about accuracy and the Star's
journalistic standards as set out in its Newsroom Policy and
Journalistic Standards Guide
https://www.thestar.com/
The public editor's office is staffed Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 5
p.m., by Public Editor Bruce Campion-Smith and Public Editor,
Associate, Maithily Panchalingam.
If you are requesting a correction or questioning journalistic
standards, please send a link or details of where you read the article
you are questioning, (e.g.- date, page number, digital device.) Please
include your full name and a telephone number where we can reach you
for further information if necessary. Unfortunately, due to the volume
of emails we receive, we cannot reply to every email, but we do read
them all, consider carefully the issues raised, and take appropriate
action to attempt to resolve complaints in cases of error or breach of
the Star's standards.
Some messages to the public editor may be published in Bruce
Campion-Smith's public editor column, which explores journalistic
issues raised by readers. Please inform us if you do not want your
message published.
Corrections: The public editor's office looks into claims of error on
any and all platforms on which the Star publishes. The Star corrects
significant errors of fact. When we determine a correction is called
for, it will be published as soon as possible; the article will also
be corrected online and a correction appended. Generally, news
corrections are published on page A2 and corrections for other
sections (including Sports, Entertainment and Life) are published in
those sections. Corrections are also published online:
https://www.thestar.com/
Because many readers often point out the same error, we cannot notify
each person that we are publishing a correction. As well, because of
the volume of queries we receive, we are not always able to respond to
explain why we determined no correction is necessary. Every query
about a possible error is considered thoroughly however. We thank all
readers who take the time to help the Star report accurately.
Unpublishing: Generally, the Star does not delete (unpublish) content
from our websites or archives, except in some rare circumstances
following consultation with the editor-in-chief, managing editor, and
in some cases, legal counsel. In the case of verified errors, we will
correct/update the article and/or append corrections as necessary but
will not remove it from the Star' s digital publishing record.
General feedback about coverage: If you are writing to express your
view of the Star's coverage, your message will be forwarded to the
appropriate department. Because of the volume of email we receive,
neither the public editor's office, nor the journalists in specific
departments, can respond to every reader comment about the Star's
coverage.
Letters to the Editor: If you want your comments expressing your view
considered for publication as a Letter to the Editor, please resend
your message to lettertoed@thestar.ca<mailto:l
Letters must include full name, address and all phone numbers of
sender (daytime, evening and cellphone). Street names and phone
numbers will not be published. The Star reserves the right to edit
letters, which typically run 50-150 words. Please note: The Star
receives many more letters than it has space to print. Due to the
volume, we unfortunately cannot acknowledge every submission.
Submissions to the Star: Commentaries, opinion pieces, story pitches
and press releases should be submitted to the section of the Star to
which they are best suited. A full list of departments is published on
the "Contact Us" page of the Star's website:
https://www.thestar.com/about/
How to reach a Star journalist: Most staff members, including
reporters, editors, columnists and photographers, can be reached by
email. In most cases the email address follows this formula (all lower
case, don't type spaces or the plus sign): first initial + last name
@thestar.ca. You can also reach staff in the Editorial department
(newsroom) via phone at 416-869-4300 or fax at 416-869-4328. Editorial
staff members can also be contacted within the department they work
for. To reach a freelance writer, please contact the section in which
his or her article appeared.
Subscriptions/Customer Service: The public editor's office handles
concerns about editorial content only. For home delivery
subscriptions, delivery problems, billing inquiries and other customer
service matters, please email
circmail@thestar.ca<mailto:cir
our Subscription page<http://www.thestar.com/
home delivery information.
Further information about how to contact other departments in the Star
can be found here: https://www.thestar.com/about/
Thank you for reading your Toronto Star.

'Trying to get their life back': Portapique in recovery
The appearance of normalcy in Portapique region should not be confused
with the absence of lingering trauma, according to Colchester North
MLA Tom Taggart. He was born and raised in Portapique and served as
municipal councillor at the time of the mass shooting.

FRANK MAGAZINE JULY 20, 2022
THE LOCKYER FACTOR
by Paul Palango
Top Mountie in area of N.S. mass shooting stayed home to avoid command confusion
In his interview last month with the public inquiry, Archie Thompson, who retired about six months after the April 18-19, 2020, killings, said if he had left his home about 90 kilometres south of the command post and driven to the scene, it would have raised questions about who was running the operation.
At the time, the veteran officer had been superintendent in charge of the RCMP's Northeast Nova district for almost four months, and he wore the white shirt of a commissioned officer.
In his interview released Friday by the inquiry, Thompson outlined difficulties reaching his second-in-command for the district, Staff Sgt. Steve Halliday, on the phone during some of the tension-filled moments as the killer drove a replica police cruiser on April 19 and continued his murders in the Wentworth area.
Twenty-two people, including a pregnant woman, would die before police shot the perpetrator at a gas station in Enfield, N.S.
Thompson said his notes indicated that at 9:52 a.m. on April 19, Halliday sent him a message saying "shots fired," and then was unable to provide a further update as he was busy. Thompson said that more than an hour later, at 10:57 a.m., Halliday sent another message saying, "We have major issues," and telephoned his commander 15 minutes later to relay information about additional deaths.
However, Thompson said being present at the command post where Halliday was assisting Staff Sgt. Jeff West, the critical incident commander, wouldn't have helped.
"I wouldn't want to do that and inject myself into the investigation .... The rank, the colour of the uniform tends to have an impact when I show up," he said.
While the retired superintendent said it was his role to "get the resources moving along if required," he said through the night he heard that the RCMP officers on the scene had sufficient personnel.
Asked by the commission lawyer if he should have been at the scene to determine this, Thompson responded that he didn't believe that would be the normal procedure.
Thompson's interview also indicated that he was among those asked by Halliday the morning of April 19 to look into notifying the public that police had learned the killer was armed and driving a replica RCMP vehicle.
Halliday testified in May that he confirmed the replica vehicle was still unaccounted for at 7:55 a.m. on April 19, and had noted at about 8 a.m. "this has to be communicated out to the (RCMP) members, all municipal agencies, police departments and border crossings and we have to get it out to the public as soon as possible."
Thompson's notes say that at 8:22 a.m., he and Halliday "discussed the need to ensure this information was made public," and six minutes later, he called Chief Supt. Chris Leather, the second-highest ranking officer in the province, to provide "an update" and get a number for Lia Scanlan, the director of strategic operations.
Thompson said he called Scanlan at 8:39 a.m. and informed her about the marked police car, and she agreed she would call a sergeant at the command post. Thompson told the public inquiry lawyer he then left the matter with her, and said it was her department's responsibility.
Halliday testified in May that he was surprised the message about the replica vehicle didn't go out to the public until 10:17 a.m., more than two hours after his notes recorded he wanted this to occur.
Lawyers for family members have criticized the delay, noting that during the extra hours of delay at least six people were killed on April 19.
The inquiry has said that the precise role Leather may have played in the delay is unclear and in a summary it published May 17 said that inquiry staff were still investigating Leather's role in this. He is expected to testify before the inquiry next week.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published July 22, 2022.

As calls to 'defund' police grow, some say it's time for the RCMP to do less

Replying to @DavidRayAmos @alllibertynews and 49 others
Methinks if just 1 RCMP member or journalist or professor or
politician or lawyer or bureaucrat were ethical they would have blown
the whistle by now if only to protect their own interests N'esy Pas?

> HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
>
> Defendant
>
> ORDER
>
> (Delivered orally from the Bench in Fredericton, New Brunswick, on

>
> The Plaintiff seeks an appeal de novo, by way of motion pursuant to
> the Federal Courts Rules (SOR/98-106), from an Order made on November
> 12, 2015, in which Prothonotary Morneau struck the Statement of Claim
> in its entirety.
>
> At the outset of the hearing, the Plaintiff brought to my attention a
> letter dated September 10, 2004, which he sent to me, in my then
> capacity as Past President of the New Brunswick Branch of the Canadian
> Bar Association, and the then President of the Branch, Kathleen Quigg,
> (now a Justice of the New Brunswick Court of Appeal). In that letter
> he stated:
>
> As for your past President, Mr. Bell, may I suggest that you check the
> work of Frank McKenna before I sue your entire law firm including you.
> You are your brother’s keeper.
>
> Frank McKenna is the former Premier of New Brunswick and a former
> colleague of mine at the law firm of McInnes Cooper. In addition to
> expressing an intention to sue me, the Plaintiff refers to a number of
> people in his Motion Record who he appears to contend may be witnesses
> or potential parties to be added. Those individuals who are known to
> me personally, include, but are not limited to the former Prime
> Minister of Canada, The Right Honourable Stephen Harper; former
> Attorney General of Canada and now a Justice of the Manitoba Court of
> Queen’s Bench, Vic Toews; former member of Parliament Rob Moore;
> former Director of Policing Services, the late Grant Garneau; former
> Chief of the Fredericton Police Force, Barry McKnight; former Staff
> Sergeant Danny Copp; my former colleagues on the New Brunswick Court
> of Appeal, Justices Bradley V. Green and Kathleen Quigg, and, retired
> Assistant Commissioner Wayne Lang of the Royal Canadian Mounted
> Police.
>
> In the circumstances, given the threat in 2004 to sue me in my
> personal capacity and my past and present relationship with many
> potential witnesses and/or potential parties to the litigation, I am
> of the view there would be a reasonable apprehension of bias should I
> hear this motion. See Justice de Grandpré’s dissenting judgment in
> Committee for Justice and Liberty et al v National Energy Board et al,
> [1978] 1 SCR 369 at p 394 for the applicable test regarding
> allegations of bias. In the circumstances, although neither party has
> requested I recuse myself, I consider it appropriate that I do so.

Senior Mountie's controversial notes about commissioner held back for months, inquiry says
Mass Casualty Commission says 4 pages of Supt. Darren Campbell’s notes missing from initial disclosure
The key section included allegations the head of the RCMP promised politicians the force would release information about guns used during the April 2020 rampage.
The Mass Casualty Commission said the federal government sent 132 pages of Supt. Darren Campbell's handwritten notes in mid-February 2022, but that the file had no references to a meeting with Commissioner Brenda Lucki on April 28, 2020.
Three weeks ago, the inquiry received a second file of Campbell's notes for the same time period. The package included the pages Campbell wrote about a conference call he and other senior officers in Nova Scotia had with Lucki.
It happened just over a week after a gunman disguised as a Mountie killed 22 people, including a pregnant woman, injured others and destroyed several homes by fire.
Twenty-two
people died on April 18 and 19, 2020. Top row from left: Gina Goulet,
Dawn Gulenchyn, Jolene Oliver, Frank Gulenchyn, Sean McLeod, Alanna
Jenkins. Second row: John Zahl, Lisa McCully, Joey Webber, Heidi
Stevenson, Heather O'Brien and Jamie Blair. Third row from top: Kristen
Beaton, Lillian Campbell, Joanne Thomas, Peter Bond, Tom Bagley and Greg
Blair. Bottom row: Emily Tuck, Joy Bond, Corrie Ellison and Aaron Tuck.
(CBC)
In the previously undisclosed pages, Campbell wrote that Lucki was displeased with the local commanders for not releasing information about the makes and models of guns used in the attacks, details that he felt could risk jeopardizing the investigation into how the shooter obtained his weapons.

probe into the 2020 mass shooting in Nova Scotia. (Adrian Wyld/The Canadian Press)https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/blair-lucki-nova-scotia-shooting-gun-control-1.6496511
In May 2020, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced a ban on some 1,500 makes and models of guns, including the two of the guns used in the Nova Scotia mass shooting. At that time, police had not released the specific makes and models used in the attacks.
Campbell's allegation that Lucki had made commitments to Trudeau and then-public safety minister Bill Blair in advance of new gun control legislation ignited a political firestorm in Ottawa this week, with opposition MPs demanding an investigation into the possibility of political interference.
Both Blair and Trudeau have denied doing so and stated the RCMP makes its own decisions about releasing information.
Lucki has also denied she would interfere with a police investigation, but did not address the claim she wanted to release more information in advance of the Liberals' plan to introduce new gun control legislation in May 2020.
Campbell and Lucki are expected to be called as witnesses at the inquiry late next month. They've also been summoned to appear before a parliamentary hearing in Ottawa at the end of July to address allegations of potential political interference.
Barbara McLean, investigations director with the commission, said in a statement to CBC News that the commission is seeking an explanation from the Department of Justice about why four pages were missing from the original disclosure.
She added that it is "demanding an explanation for any further material that has been held back" in cases where the commission was not aware it was happening.
"The commission is seeking assurance that nothing else has been held back as per direction from subpoenas," McLean said.
Files subpoenaed last June
The commission said it first asked for all the RCMP's investigative files related to the probe into the April 2020 massacre through a subpoena on June 15, 2021.
In response, it has received thousands of pages of documents and files have come in "on a rolling basis" and staff "followed up regularly on items that had not yet been received."
"These documents have often been provided in a disjointed manner that has required extensive commission team review," McLean said, adding that staff review everything "carefully for any gaps or additional information."
Conservatives continue to press Liberal over claims of interference in NS shooting investigation
CBC News learned of the discrepancy because the joint federal and provincial inquiry initially posted 132 pages of Campbell's notes on its website last week and that file had no mention of the Lucki meeting.
But the commission quoted Campbell's comments about Lucki in a document released Tuesday summarizing how the RCMP communicated with the public in the months after the shootings. A 136-page file containing Campbell's additional notes — including that April meeting — was shared with journalists under an embargo in advance. They have since been posted on the commission's website.

Justice Department statement
In a statement issued Friday evening, the Justice Department said that it sent more than 2,000 pages of notes from senior officers on Feb. 11, 2022, and March 2, 2022. Some pages, including the four pages of Campbell's notes in question, required assessment for whether they were privileged.
The statement said the review determined the pages were not privileged, and they were provided to the commission without redactions on May 30, 2022.
"While it is a usual practice to review documents for privilege before disclosure, the Commission was not advised that some pages of the notes of senior officers were being reviewed for privilege," said the statement.
"Department of Justice counsel should have done so and will work with the Commission to establish a process for review."
Campbell hasn't been interviewed
The Mass Casualty Commission has yet to speak to Campbell directly about his allegations.
As the officer in charge of support services overseeing units including the tactical team and major crimes unit, Campbell was the Nova Scotia RCMP's main spokesperson in three press conferences held in late April and June 2020. He also met with many of the families of people killed.
Campbell said in a statement Thursday to CBC News that he has "been waiting for some time to be interviewed by the Mass Casualty Commission" and that it'll happen soon. He also said he looks forward to testifying.
"As such, it would be inappropriate for me to make any public comments prior to giving evidence under oath," Campbell said.
Months ago, the commissioners overseeing the joint federal and provincial inquiry said they expected to ask Campbell to testify, along with former Asst. Commissioner Lee Bergerman, who has since retired from the role she held as the commanding officer of the Nova Scotia RCMP, and Chief Supt. Chris Leather, who was the second in command in April 2020.
'Monumental task' of combing through documents
Rob Pineo, a lawyer who represents families of 14 people killed in the mass shooting as well as others who have been affected by it, said the discrepancy in Campbell's notes is "definitely concerning but certainly not surprising given how information has rolled out during this inquiry process."
The Mass Casualty Commission typically shares its documents with participants, including the lawyers representing families, prior to releasing the information to the public. But Pineo said some witnesses who have testified before the commission have shared their background interviews and relevant records.
He attributes this to an unrealistic timeline set when the two levels of government established the commission in the fall of 2020 and set a deadline of November of this year for the inquiry's final report.

"We feel that the timeframe, the goalposts that were set for this inquiry, didn't allow enough time for the information and evidence to be properly vetted and disclosed," he said.
Going through the thousands of pages of records has been a "monumental task" even for the large team involved at his firm, Pineo said.
"In a regular court setting we would have months, maybe years, to digest evidence and work through legal theories. Here we usually have a matter of days or weeks," he said.
The commission said in its interim report that by late March it had issued 70 subpoenas, including many to the RCMP, for both documents and for witnesses to appear.
Campbell, Leather leaving N.S.
Campbell and Leather are both leaving Nova Scotia, Nova Scotia RCMP confirmed Friday.
Campbell was promoted to chief superintendent and will be working in New Brunswick in the coming weeks. He'll be the interim core policing criminal operations officer for J Division.
Leather is joining the federal policing modernization team at RCMP National Headquarters in Ottawa in the coming months.
Neither Campbell or Leather have begun their new roles.

Top Mountie denies claim she interfered in N.S. shooting investigation
Conservatives accusing Liberals of using the deaths of Canadians to push political agenda
The head of the RCMP is denying a claim by a fellow Mountie that she tried to direct the information investigators released as part of their probe into the 2020 mass shooting in Nova Scotia.
That allegation was contained in handwritten notes from Nova Scotia RCMP Supt. Darren Campbell which were released Tuesday as part of the Mass Casualty Commission probe.
The commission is investigating the April 18-19, 2020, rampage that claimed the lives of 22 people — including a pregnant woman — and left several people injured and several homes destroyed. The commission released a report Tuesday on the way the RCMP and government communicated with the public about the incident.
In those notes, Campbell wrote that RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki was upset that the RCMP in Nova Scotia was not revealing more information about the weapons used because she had promised the federal government — which was considering gun control legislation at the time — that they would raise it.
"As a police officer, and the RCMP commissioner, I would never take actions or decisions that could jeopardize an investigation. I did not interfere in the ongoing investigations into the largest mass shooting in Canadian history," Lucki wrote in a statement released Tuesday evening.
Did the government try to interfere in an RCMP investigation of the Nova Scotia mass shooting?
Lucki did not address the claim that she was pushing for the release of more information to help the Liberals' plans for gun control. She did say briefings with the minister of public safety are necessary, particularly during a mass shooting.
"This is standard procedure, and does not impact the integrity of ongoing investigations or interfere with the independence of the RCMP," she wrote.
"I take the principle of police independence extremely seriously, and it has been and will continue to be fully respected in all interactions."
Mountie feared release would 'jeopardize' investigation
The allegation stems from an April 24, 2020 news conference. During that event, Campbell told reporters the gunman had two semi-automatic handguns and two semi-automatic rifles. He would not offer more details but said that some of the guns might have come from the United States and the Canada Border Services Agency was assisting with the investigation.
"The commissioner was obviously upset. She did not raise her voice but her choice of words was indicative of her overall dissatisfaction with our work," Campbell wrote after meeting with Lucki a few days later. His handwritten notes describing that meeting became part of the commission's investigation.
"The Commissioner said she had promised the Minister of Public Safety and the Prime Minister's Office that the RCMP (we) would release this information," Campbell continued. "I tried to explain there was no intent to disrespect anyone, however we could not release this information at this time. The Commissioner then said that we didn't understand, that this was tied to pending gun control legislation that would make officers and the public safer."

In the spring of 2020, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced a ban on some 1,500 firearm makes and models, including two of the guns used in the Nova Scotia mass shooting — a Colt Law Enforcement Carbine, a semi-automatic weapon, and a Ruger Mini-14.
At that time, police had not released the specific makes and models used in the attacks. That information didn't become public until the fall of 2020, when the National Post reported details of the weapons after obtaining a briefing note prepared for the prime minister after the shooting.
Campbell said he told the RCMP Strategic Communications Unit not to release information about the firearms because it might hamper the investigation.
"I said we couldn't because to do so would jeopardize ongoing efforts to advance the U.S. side of the case as well as the Canadian components of the investigation," he wrote.
"Those are facts and I stand by them."
Of the meeting with Lucki, Campbell wrote that some in the room "were reduced to tears and emotional over this belittling reprimand."
In her statement, Lucki said she regrets her behaviour in that meeting.
Angry victims’ families heard at N.S. shooting inquiry
"Several days after the mass shooting, I met with Nova Scotia RCMP colleagues to discuss a number of things. This included the flow of information to RCMP National Headquarters on the investigation and the public release of information. It was a tense discussion, and I regret the way I approached the meeting and the impact it had on those in attendance," she said.
"My need for information should have been better weighed against the seriousness of the circumstances they were experiencing. I should have been more sensitive in my approach. Had I led the meeting differently, these employees would have felt more supported during what I know was an extremely difficult time."
Blair denies pressuring top Mountie
During a fiery round of questioning in the House of Commons Tuesday, Conservative MP Stephen Ellis accused Emergency Preparedness Minister Bill Blair — who was public safety minister at the time — of using the deaths of Canadians to push the Liberals' political agenda.
Blair denied the allegation.
"The commissioner of the RCMP has confirmed for the commission that no such direction or pressure was ever exerted by me or by any other member of this government," he said.
The Conservatives continued to raise the issue during question period Tuesday, and Blair kept replying that the RCMP commissioner's police operations are independent of the government.
"Among the more important work of the Mass Casualty Commission is to examine the important communication challenges that were evident during this tragic event. We look forward to fact-based findings and recommendations for improvement," Blair said.
In a statement to CBC News, a spokesperson for Blair denied the minister had any involvement in RCMP decisions.
"At no time during his tenure … did Minister Blair or his office direct the RCMP in any of their operational decisions, including during and immediately following the tragic events in April 2020," the statement reads.
"The decision of what information to publicly disclose regarding any investigation, as with all operational matters, is taken solely at law enforcement's discretion."
The commission investigation has not released any notes from Lucki. She is expected to be called as a witness next month.
"The RCMP continues to be an active participant in the MCC. I will be providing testimony in the coming weeks, and the RCMP will continue to support the Commission's important work," Lucki's statement says.
The Liberals last month tabled Bill C-21, which would impose a national freeze on the purchase, sale, importation and transfer of handguns in Canada.

As Cpl. Clarke said, I am Superintendent Darren Campbell, Support Services Officer, Nova Scotia RCMP.
Before I begin and provide you with information related to the incidents as they unfolded, I want to first acknowledge those who lost their lives.
Twenty-two innocent people were killed at the hands of a gunman and three people were injured. To call this a tragedy is an understatement. Some of those who lost their lives did so while trying to save others. They are heroes.
I want to express my sincere condolences to all the families.
There are two elements that I would like to address before going through the incidents as they unfolded.
The incidents happened in rural Nova Scotia, Portapique is a community in Colchester County in the central part of the province. This is a small community, about 100 people live there year-round. The homes are set back from the road, some are old, others new and some are summer residences along the Bay of Fundy. This is a quiet community, there are no sidewalks or street lights.
The RCMP implements a Critical Incident Command structure when responding to complaints that may impact public safety. Highly skilled and trained officers come together as a team in order to direct emergency personnel and the multiple specialized policing units deployed when responding to a complaint.
These two elements are important to be aware of as I go through the timeline of the incidents.
The following details I will be sharing with you have been put together because of the benefit of hindsight, of knowing what happened. The police officers responding to the initial 911 call and the subsequent calls did not have the benefit of the knowledge I am about to share with you. The initial complaint was of a shooting.
To help explain the timeline I will be talking about three clusters of incidents. The first cluster was in Portapique on Saturday night. On Sunday, there was a second cluster of incidents in Wentworth, Glenholme, and Debert. And then, a third and final cluster in Shubenacadie, Milford and Enfield.
(Cluster one)
What we learned as part of the investigation is that on April 18 before the first call came in there was an assault between the gunman and a person known to him in Portapique.
The victim managed to escape from the gunman and hid overnight in the woods.
Following this, police received the first call to 911 with a report of a shooting at a home in Portapique.
Officers arrived at 10:26 p.m. where they located a male leaving the area with an apparent gunshot wound.
They learned that this man was shot while driving his vehicle.
The victim indicated a vehicle drove by him while he was driving and the shot came from the passing vehicle.
Officer arranged for EHS to attend to the victim and he was taken to hospital by EHS.
Several of their units responded to the area and upon arriving, located several people who were deceased lying in the roadway. There were also several structures already on fire.
In total there were over 7 locations where people were found deceased. Many of the deceased were discovered while responding members were checking homes for victims and/or suspects. At this time, police began looking at a number of possible suspects as a result of the information they were receiving.
While the situation was unfolding the Critical Incident Program was engaged and staging to take control of the critical incident.
During this point perimeters were established. Specialized Units responded including Police Dog Services, Emergency Response Teams and a DNR helicopter. We also had the Explosives Disposal Unit, crisis negotiators and the Emergency Medical Response Team on stand by. Within a very short time, we also engaged specialized units and resources from J Division in New Brunswick.
Over a lengthy period of time, first responders engaged in clearing residences, searching for suspects, providing life saving measures. Telecommunicators remained on the line with witnesses in the immediate area.
Fairly early into our involvement, we learned of a possible suspect and learned the individual lived in a home in the community of Portapique.
The possible suspect's home and garages were fully engulfed in flames. Two police vehicles as well as a third vehicle were also burning on the property.
We also learned that the gunman was in possession of a pistol and long barreled weapons. He was also known to own several vehicles that looked like police vehicles.
Our efforts to locate suspect continued throughout the night.
After 0630, at daybreak, a victim emerged from hiding after she called 911.
Our officers responded and it was at that time that, through a significant key witness, we confirmed more details about Gabriel Wortman. This included the fact that he was in possession of a fully marked and equipped replica vehicle and was wearing a police uniform. He was in possession of several firearms that included pistols and long guns.
At that time, we issued a BOLO (Be on the Look Out), a bulletin that included a description of the suspect and vehicle, to all police officers in Nova Scotia.
We maintained containment of the scene and continued to search for the suspect.
(Cluster 2)
More than 12 hours after our initial arrival in Portapique, we began receiving a second series of 911 calls in an area more than 60 km away.
Our investigation has revealed that the gunman attended a residence on Hunter Rd. in the Glenholme area.
At that location, the gunman killed two men and a woman and set residence on fire.
At least two of the victims here were known to the gunman.
Our investigation uncovered that the gunman then travelled to a residence on Hwy 4 in Glenholme.
He knocked on the door and awoke the residents. He was known to the occupants. They identified him to 911 call takers and said he was driving a police vehicle and carrying a long gun.
They didn't answer the door and he left.
The gunman continued southbound on Hwy 4 from Glenholme to the Wentworth area.
He encountered a woman out walking and shot the woman at roadside. He continued south towards Debert.
At that point he encountered two people driving their vehicles. A witness described that he pulled over one of the vehicles and shot one of the occupants. He continued driving down the same road, encountered a second vehicle and shot and killed that female victim.
During this second series of events, from the timing of the first call on Hunter Road to the last incident, it was about a distance of 44 kilometers.
(Cluster 3)
Cst. Morrison and Cst. Stevenson were communicating and arranged to meet. Cst. Morrison was waiting for Cst. Stevenson at Hwy 2 & Hwy 224. What appeared to be a marked RCMP vehicle approached Cst. Morrison. As they had prearranged to meet at that location, Cst. Morrison thought the vehicle was Cst. Stevenson.
The approaching police vehicle was actually driven by the gunman. The gunman pulled up beside Cst. Morrison and immediately opened fire. Cst. Morrison received several gunshot wounds and began to retreat from the area, driving his vehicle away from the scene. He notified other officers and dispatch that he was shot and that he was enroute to EHS station for emergency medical attention.
During that time, Cst. Heidi Stevenson was nearby in that area, believed to be driving northbound on Hwy 2 while the gunman was travelling southbound on Hwy 2. At that point, both vehicles collided head on. Cst. Heidi Stevenson engaged the gunman. The gunman took Cst. Stevenson's life. He also took Cst. Stevenson's gun and mags.
A passerby stopped and was fatally shot by the gunman. The gunman set both Cst. Stevenson's vehicle and the replica police vehicle on fire. He left the scene, driving south on Hwy 224 in the passerby's vehicle, which was described as a silver SUV.
The gunman travelled south on Hwy 224 for a short distance where he entered a home on the East Side of Hwy 224. That home happened to be the home of a woman known to the gunman. The gunman shot and killed the female resident.
The gunman then removed the police clothing he was wearing and transferred his weapons to the female victim's vehicle which was a red Mazda 3.
The gunman travelled south on HWY 224, coming to the Big Stop Irving in Enfield. While he was at the gas pumps, one of our tactical resources came into the gas station to refuel their vehicle. When the officer exited the vehicle, there was an encounter and the gunman was shot and killed by police at 11:26 a.m.
The distance the gunman travelled from the first shooting of Cst. Morrison to the encounter with police at the Big Stop is approx. 23 kms
The situations within the clusters of critical incidents were rapidly evolving, which has increased the complexity of investigating the horrific incidents.
Nova Scotia RCMP continue to ask for anyone who has information about any of these incidents to contact us. We are looking for photos, videos, and any other material that may help. No piece of information is too small, and if you have information we would like to hear from you.
We ask those with information to call the RCMP tip line at 1-902-720-5959. We've already gotten many tips and we thank the public for taking the time to reach out.
