Vincent Gircys, Forensic Police Expert Testifies: Inquiry into Canada's Brutal Covid Response.
This is a re-airing of an NCI Testimony.
Vincent Gircys
"I am a retired member—a former member—of the Ontario Provincial Police [OPP]. I started my career with that organization in 1982 and I served this province in policing for a total of 32 years. I have 32 years of experience in policing—and that’s different than some people, who have one year of experience repeated 32 times.
I have submitted my curriculum vitae here [Exhibit TO-26]. I believe it’s with the group, and it’s five pages long of courses that I’ve taken over the entirety of my career. I started my career in Toronto. Eventually, I became a member of the emergency response team for the OPP, one of many. And at some point, I became involved in forensic investigations and forensic reconstruction. I did that for a number of years. And throughout the course of my career, there were a number of things that I had taken on. I never turned down any opportunities for training and I received a number of commendations throughout the course of my 32-year career and retired with the Police Exemplary Service Medal for my conduct.
I just want to say that there are many men and women in law enforcement. And the men and women of law enforcement are ordinary men and ordinary women just doing extraordinary things. And I’m extremely proud and happy to know that the men and women that I worked with within the service were what I believe to be the best of the best within policing services. And I’ve met many, many wonderful police officers over the course of my career that put themselves in harm’s way and behaved very courageously.
So I’m very proud of the profession. But I see that a number of mistakes have been made over the last three years. Tremendous mistakes have been made. So I’m going to start off with a little bit more of an introduction into my background and then I’m going to tell my story. And then I’m going to get into the mistakes that were made."
“Whereas Canada is founded upon principles that recognize the supremacy of God and the rule of law.” This is the first sentence in the Canadian Charter of Rights that was written and established in 1982, the same year that I started my career in policing. I was very familiar with the Canadian Charter of Rights. And I was issued, upon my probationary period when I first started with the organization, a Bible. I was issued a King James Bible. And the question needs to be asked: Why? Why was I issued a Bible? And that is something that I carried with me during my service and every time I testified.
And I have testified hundreds of times, actually thousands of times, in various courts. I became an expert witness in forensic reconstruction. And every time I testified, I did it by placing my hand on the Bible to swear an oath. I’m very familiar with the police oath that I’ve taken. And it is the same oath that all police officers in the province of Ontario take. The oath varies from province to province depending on the police services involved but, in Ontario it’s the same oath. And my oath is to the Constitution in Ontario. I’m very familiar with it and I would hope that other police officers would be familiar with the oaths that they had taken.
It’s very important, the first opening sentence of the Canadian Charter of Rights."
