Senior Mounties involved in N.S. mass shooting response either retired or in new jobs
As the public face of the RCMP, Campbell was less gaffe-prone, but he would eventually come under intense scrutiny over four pages of handwritten notes he wrote during the tense meeting on April 28, 2020 — nine days after the mass killing.The notes sparked controversy in Ottawa, where 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.
Where is he now? Campbell was promoted to chief superintendent last year. He is now the criminal operations officer with the New Brunswick RCMP.Lia Scanlan, director of strategic communications for the Nova Scotia RCMP, testifies at the Mass Casualty Commission inquiry on Wednesday, June 8, 2022.Then: Scanlan was responsible for how the RCMP communicated with the public during and after the mass shooting.
She confirmed that the RCMP’s first tweet about the events in Portapique, N.S., on the night of April 18, 2020, was inaccurate, as it described what was happening as a “firearms complaint,” even though the Mounties were aware at least three people had been shot to death.Scanlan also confirmed there were unacceptable delays in alerting the public to the fact that the killer was driving a car that looked exactly like a marked RCMP cruiser.
“Just know that, if I could go back and have those minutes disappear, I would do anything,” Scanlan said when asked if anything should be changed to prevent such delays. “I just need people to know that. And we’ll do better.” Where is she now? Scanlan assumed the role of strategic adviser to the commanding officer of the Nova Scotia RCMP in January 2022.
