Two women who were assaulted by Ottawa Police Const. Eric Post say a plea deal brokered by the Crown diminishes the violence and fear the officer inflicted upon them.
On Jan. 15, Post pleaded guilty to five charges related to violence against several women over the course of five years. They were women he was linked to romantically or knew personally. He initially faced 32 charges the highest number ever for an officer in the Ottawa Police Service.
At long last, the much-debated addition to the Chateau Laurier hotel has been given the green light at City Hall.
Council voted 14-10 Wednesday to approve the design and issue a heritage permit for the proposed addition at the back of the iconic downtown lodging.
The councillors who opposed the proposal were Riley Brockington, Rick Chiarelli, Diane Deans, Mathieu Fleury, Theresa Kavanagh, Rawlson King, Jeff Leiper, Catherine McKenney, Carol Anne Meehan and Shawn Menard.
“I voted NO because heritage matters and we can do better,” McKenney tweeted.
Mayor Jim Watson supported the updated concept, saying recently the plan meets “council’s key conditions for improvement.”
