Lawyer of interim OPP commissioner says call for review of Taverner appointment is to protect integrity of police force
Description
December 13, 2018

Lawyer Julian Falconer tells Global News “it's absurd” to suggest interim OPP commissioner Brad Blair is motivated by personal gain in his request to Ontario's Ombudsman to investigate possible political interference in the appointment of Ron Taverner as commissioner. The NDP say the ombudsman has deferred the file to the Integrity Commissioner.
