That is the job of government according to scriptures, so I'd imagine your complaint is ideological?I do not agree. The truckers have been dispersed or arrested; their vehicles have been towed away and are in the hands of the police. Nobody has been killed.
Thanks for clarifying that.I didn't know there was anything about trucks in the scriptures. You live and learn!
Actually I am not complaining about anything. The Canadian government has been acting constitutionally in the interests of the country.
But there was no violence. So again, how was that terrorism?
There was definitely intimidation. Also part of the definition.But there was no violence. So again, how was that terrorism?
Only if you deconstruct the definition. If you take it as written, you need both violence and intimidation. Sitting in trucks doesn’t cause terror. Nor is it really intimidating. I’m sitting in one right now. I doubt anyone is intimidated by that.There was definitely intimidation. Also part of the definition.
The trucks are just the face of the movement, the intimidation of the healthcare workers had been happening long before the protest.Only if you deconstruct the definition.

Trudeau used emergency powers as part of the constitutionally sanctioned measures available in - guess what - an emergency.
Such powers are available to all democratic governments. The population by and large accepts them as a necessity. So Canadians, being among the most reasonable people on Earth, overwhelmingly accepted the restrictions in response to Covid. And the measures worked better in Canada than almost anywhere else.
A tiny minority couldn't - or wouldn't - go along with them and tried to overturn the universal requirement to be vaccinated before entering the country.
There is the tyranny - a tiny unrepresentative bunch of extremists attempting to overturn a widely accepted leadership (the Parliament of Canada).
Calling Trudeau a tyrant is perverse.
Lol. Okay, if you want to change what words mean, then I can’t stop you.The trucks are just the face of the movement, the intimidation of the healthcare workers had been happening long before the protest.
The resulting reduction of staff resulted in more deaths.
Terrorism.
The article below was from early 2015. It's not too surprising how the fears of 7 years ago are finally coming to pass. Trudeau enacted the Emergency Powers Act to deal with those who didn't agree with his vision, and now that his opposition has been silenced, he isn't letting go of those emergency powers.Canada lawmakers extend emergency powers for truck protests
"The leader of that party does what he wants, when he wants, and no one dares question him. Would a Prime Minister Trudeau arbitrarily whip the vote and outlaw certain moral questions? Could Prime Minister Trudeau be trusted to make decisions for the good of the country, not just for his personal self-worth? Would Trudeau call in the police to enforce his vision? Let's hope we never have the opportunity to ask those questions."
Why Canada Will Become a Dictatorship Under Trudeau
What's the emergency?
Not my sign, but “seen elsewhere” and the guy holding it explained that he was a satirist.Oh that was your sign? My bad. (not obvious, but that angle is funny also)
No regime has the least moral right to impose a dangerous and useless medical procedure on the People while actually forbidding effective treatments. Doing so has historically been regarded as a crime against humanity. IF you believe getting jabbed is a good thing by all means get jabbed which in theory makes you safe from catching a Covid 19 cold. The unjabbed are not harming you so leave them alone. BTW, why are truckers peacefully standing up for Freedom a threat to national security but BLM rioting and burning in cities across the country A-OK?Whaaaat? It was three weeks. Three weeks! I'm actually astonished that some guys haven't complained as to how weak Trudeau has shown to have been. Who takes three weeks to move some trucks that were blocking 25% of your trade? Who takes three weeks to book a bunch of guys who are blocking up your city centre? Who takes three weeks to say 'enough is enough'? What sort of wimpy government (apologies to all Canadian forum members) says 'If you don't leave, then we'll really be annoyed and will come back in a couple of weeks to ask to you again'.
Calling Trudeau a tyrant is perverse.
In todays world of arrogance and pride that is often the only way to get attention for the people. Meanwhile the elites have the media to bombard us with their propaganda everyday.And one cannot hold the viability of the economy at ransom ... until someone comes to talk to you.

A tyrant is as a tyrant does. And the Canadian government is tyrannical.Dictator, tyrant, etc are labels have no meaningful application to the Canadian government. Alas, this is the type of language the so-called "conservative" media has employed in our country for the last several years to elicit outrage and emotional response (and profits). And when challenge, it's excused as hyperbole.

This is clearly subjective ... and isn't particularly representative of any but a faction of Americans.What we are seeing in the world once again are a class of leaders no longer interested in representing the people but more interesting in not having their power questioned. That in itself is and always has been a problem.
I'm talking globally and one must remember most leaders in the free world are subject to the demands of their benefactors, which ain't the common people. Power serves power.This is clearly subjective ... and isn't particularly representative of any but a faction of Americans.
