The emergency wasn't a bunch of churchy rednecks blocking roads, silly.
The emergency was Ottawa police doing nothing, Windsor police doing nothing, OPP doing nothing, RCMP doing nothing, Ontario provincial govt doing nothing, Alberta provincial govt doing nothing -- for almost a month. We came really close to a crisis of faith in our system of governance. The federal govt (in my opinion) didn't have much of a choice but to bring out the big guns.
It just demonstrates to me how broken politics are in this country, that individual politicians are so focused on their own advancement that they could not see they were endangering the very system they're parasites of.
