I saw a peaceful protest stomped down by a hysterical government that declared emergency powers, froze bank accounts and seized personal property. I now see an overzealous police chief stating they will hunt down anyone who was involved in the protest, with video of police declaring “red zones” and threatening to arrest citizens for daring to walk down the street to grab a cup of coffee. I also see police threatening shop owners who dared serve/help the truckers. What am I missing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And please enlighten us on what is happening there? at least ask the people who live in ottawa. and ask the people who are a part of the protests. the news and twitter culture are after $$ and/or popularity. if you believe them, you believe that nazi and confederate flags are rampant (not at all, this entire protest has some real pricks to be sure but it is mostly regular people), and you also believe a person was trampled to death by a horse (also not at all). i support the protest. even though i really don't support their cause. many people feel the same. but when you trample other people's rights to death with a horse we are going to have a problem. as for freezing bank accounts - in canada it is one of our favourite things to do to proclaim we are not like americans (despite the fact that we are obviously far more similar than we are different). and so when we see american millions pouring into a few bank accounts to help a canadian political movement hold our capitol hostage, we take offense and even overreach to stop it. and it will be supported by a majority of canadians.

What am I missing? you are missing the other side of the equation. the citizens of ottawa apparently don't appreciate being held hostage in their own city, being unable to sleep in their own homes or do business, that the protest is not peaceful as you claim (although for sure many of the people are peaceful). ask the people who work and live in that area. also..."hysterical? stomped?" i think you forgot "slammed!" 3 minutes ago, Chef Jim said: I also support what BLM originally stands for.

You don't call them false derogatory names, freeze bank accounts, declare emergency powers and send the police chief out there to hunt down anyone involved and intimidate shop owners who helped the protest. This was so wildly disproportionate to what was actually occurring and the Ottawa Police Chief is a straight up movie villain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this "movement" that is calling for such radical change as *checks notes* freedom, no mandates, an end to endless protocols, and a return to normal - while extremely frightening I know trust me these are terrifying demands - need to continue if only to expose the nazi opposition.

Big Blitz Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Canada: Justin Trudeau Insists on Emergency Powers Despite No Active Protests Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau insisted at a news conference on Monday that his government still needs the unprecedented emergency powers he demanded this month even though police violently removed the Freedom Convoy protesters from Ottawa and no active Freedom Convoy protests are currently occurring. “This state of emergency is not over. There continue to be real concerns about the coming days,” Trudeau said on Monday, claiming there were signs the Freedom Convoy truckers could regroup and return to Ottawa. “People [are] out there indicating that they are ready to blockade, to continue their illegal occupations to disrupt Canadians’ lives. We feel that this measure needs to remain in place,” he said. https://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2022/02/21/canada-justin-trudeau-insists-on-emergency-powers-despite-no-active-protests/ Must be using the same metrics that they use for indefinite Covid.
