Facts First: Regardless of what Subramanya may have been told, the claims she amplified were not true. The employees who took CNN's calls at the downtown Marriott and five other Ottawa hotels on Monday said their establishments had not been given any anti-protester instruction by any government; Patrick Champagne, press secretary to Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson, told CNN that the claim "is categorically false"; Alexander Cohen, spokesperson for Canadian Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino, called the claim "ludicrous" and said that "no one from the federal government has done that"; Steve Bell, president of the Ottawa Gatineau Hotel Association, said that "to my knowledge there is no truth to this rumour." As for the Marriott in particular, it had rooms available at the time of Subramanya's tweet on Sunday evening and again on Monday evening.
