>The protestors played it smart - they were peaceful yet strategic in blocking major import/export roads so the government actually felt the pain.

You have to understand that this is not one group of protestors. The border blockades were cleared without the emergency act. The emergency act was used specifically against the protestors by parliament in ottawa. The government used using a CBC article talking about threat of border blockades to justify using this emergency act against the protestors in ottawa who had nothing to do with the border blockades.

It's like using actions of a third party in new york to justify quashing protestors in washington DC. and the NDP helped the Liberals pass it. The Liberals should be required to change their party name to something else, because they aren't.

I am not a believer in crypto but the current government here is convincing me quickly.
