The mobs have taken over. Canada is now a dictatorship … ruled by activists, anarchists … anyone willing to impose their will by shutting down roads, rail, bridges, jobs.
Certainly no need to worry that the country’s ELECTED “leaders” will hit back.
It’s no joke … or hyperbole.
Thousands of Canadians are already being impacted … freight services shut down illegally; passenger rail lines disrupted illegally; propane, agricultural products illegally prevented from getting to markets; thousands of jobs already impacted illegally; and, Canada’s consumers/food chain/grocery stores are already starting to feel the impact of all the illegal blockades.
And the governments … municipal, provincial and federal … FAIL to step in, step up … and stop it.
Except appeal to the activists, anarchists, terrorists to relent.
Or seek useless pieces of paper the mobs mock, spit on and disregard. Without ANY substantive consequences.
Disgraceful!
Don’t our ELECTED “leaders” know or understand that even agreeing to negotiate with terrorists … let alone caving in to their blackmail tactics … will only increase their demands, encourage more and other such tactics and strengthen their powers???
Radicals now know they can now seize property …. from parks to ports to pipeline routes and even roads and bridges, and exercise real power in Canada … not through the ballot box … but through social disruption, shutting down service’s and crippling working people, their jobs, the economy.
Clearly, the rule of law in Canada is optional.
Or no longer applies.
