Three individuals of disparate interests, a US senator, a Canadian trucker, and a Canadian civil liberties official, all agree on one thing: Justin Trudeau is an over the top authoritarian more concerned with hysterics than with doing his job.
Senator John Kennedy, Republican of Louisiana, “Let me say a word first about Canada, and I want to make it clear I support peaceful protests. I don’t support breaking the law, but what I think we’re seeing in Canada is the tyranny of the managerial elite over the working-class majority. I don’t know Prime Minister Trudeau. I’m sure he is a warm and loving human being, but his leadership has been underwhelming.”
Trudeau says the Truckers have no right to shut down the economy and to prevent people from living their day to day lives.

Freedom Convoy spokesman Benjamin Dichter, “When I say peacefully protesting, I would call it more of a demonstration because what are we guilty of? Some trucks parked illegally? Okay, I’m not sure that that warrants the response from the government. But one of the things that they did include in this emergency act is it forces tow truck companies under duress to come in and tow the trucks. And if they refuse to tow the trucks, then the government can say, “Fine, we’re canceling your business license and fining you.”
[Trudeau] said in his press conference that he’s not going to call in the military, and we were all laughing because our response was, ‘Yeah, you tried that last week and the military said, ‘Thanks, but no thanks – this is not in within our purview.’ And many of us have families in military and policing, and that’s how we found out. So you know what they say? A general without an army is a fool. Justin Trudeau just hasn’t realized that yet.”
The executive director of the Canadian Civil Liberties Association, Noa Mendelsohn Aviv, “Right now, they’ve just gotten started — they just declared an emergency. They’ve just put before parliament the order in council that says this is the emergency that’s happening. But in our view … difficult situations, challenging situations happen all the time. Governments have the tools to deal with them, and the emergency powers are much too large power, that bypasses the democratic process, ]and] too broad.”

U mean their fed up with this radical,liberal, authoritarian, dictator who thinks he can declare martial law, on the hard working truckers that distribute all our goods across the country.This spineless, coward, needs to be removed from office for total incompetence, he is no leader, but a radical dictator, trying to remove freedom by force.This will not turn out well for Trudeau.
Trudeau’s action are VERY VERY similar to the Nazi action in the 1940’s . OI am not exaggerating – they started the same way Liberal govt under Trudeau orders are doing. Now ordering Banks to seize accounts a nd crypto… what is next house to house to seize jewelry and coins??? This is a VERY serious act in Canada.
Any upside the head?
Someone needs to slam a 5 pound hammer up aside Trudeau’s head !
Freedom, by itself, stands alone to face tyranny.

Canada PM Trudeau is acting very similar to na zi tactics in 1940s. serious enough to seize bank accounts.
I hear Biden is gonna help him with his next campaign
Buck Fiden !
Trudeau should be taken out and tied to a tree and beaten until he is almost dead … then put his Commie Ass in a Chipper feet first so he can see the blades coming for him !
I hope the Truckers revolt and park their rigs for months until Trudeau resigns !
