Hacking is illegal. Canadian truckers are only demonstrating because they believe their rights are being infringed on. Their goal is not to overthrow the Canadian government. What other action should these truckers have taken? I don't know what rights Canadians have. I do know what rights Americans are supposed to have but I can totally seeing the left in the US responding in the same way to a Freedom demonstration here. The destruction and "obstruction" (think CHOP) was ok for BLM and Antifa but people (as in "of the people and for the people") protesting infringement on their rights, well that must be crushed.

It is suspected that the Ottawa occupation sites also harbor similar elements. "Canadian truckers" have been taken for a ride, it's been quite clear after the first week that truckers have very little to do with this beyond being a cover story. Canadian Trucking Association has publicly disavowed this, 90% of our truckers are vaccinated and at work. To be clear, there were no rights being infringed by the various health measures. There were privileges being denied, most definitely. Some people confuse the two. Of course now the situation has evolved past that, but this has been an extremely volatile three weeks and Canadian democracy is at stake here.
