Nearly one year after the provincial government forced the removal of roadside speed cameras, Ottawa's police chief says traffic enforcement has been extra challenging.

Chief Eric Stubbs told the Ottawa Police Service Board on Monday that there are more than 400 school zones and intersections officers would have to monitor to replace the reach of speed cameras.

Cops always side with right winger protests. OPP visibly sided with the truckers as well as the Ottawa cops, RCMP would as well had they been forced into the issue.

It's ACAB for a reason.
