> How many buildings have the truckers torched? I can anticipate the reply, but there's been an attempt of at least one, possibly with ideas about a second.[1][2] > How many people have they injured? This is an interesting phrasing of this. It implies an assault without injury is not an worthy of consideration. The actual answer is not entirely known by anyone outside law enforcement I would guess but there's been a few.[3][4][5] > How can emergency powers be invoked against peaceful protests? Ideas are not violence. Unless your definition of "peaceful" is "the majority of participants are not looting/destroying property or assaulting people", this is not a peaceful protest. The ideas here are not coherent either, nor are the directed at where the changes can happen. As relates to the covid mandates, the Federal government actually only has powers over a handful of areas; the majority are held by the provinces. Indeed, the original precipitating mandate could be dropped tomorrow and it would change basically nothing at the borders because the US government also has the same mandates in place.
