Summary
It is the intention of this document to provide commentary for a systemic review of the role of intelligence in the Ontario Provincial Police. It describes how the intelligence process works in the OPP – specifically how intelligence is collected, evaluated, analyzed and utilized. Using the issues identified during the Ipperwash Inquiry as a reference point, it articulates the significant differences between how the intelligence process worked in the past and how it works today.
This document addresses several key areas: The Intelligence Dilemma; The Fundamentals of Intelligence; Impediments to the Intelligence Process; OPP Intelligence in the Past and Intelligence in the OPP Today.
