Tell that to the government then, it's not like they held a referendum to ask us what our opinion was. I'm just saying this method was less violent than the alternative.
- lotsofpulp 4y agoThat was the point the government was making. They had so much power, they do not even need to be violent, they could strip their livelihood with a few clerical actions. Which means due process and all that is just a formality, that can apparently be ignored when politically convenient.
- dukeofdoom 4y agoI'm not sure if you are aware. But the government resorted to the "alternative" violence to end the protest anyway. There's videos on youtube of the mass arrests (crackdown) if you're curious. A grandma gets trampled by a police horse, and some arrested are battered with batons in Ottawa. In Windsor they used tow trucks from Michigan to clear out the protestors trucks. Which if you think about it, Canada government used foreign aid to end a protest against itself.
