Police Intimidation Shows Government's True Colors
Canadian spirit for Freedom remains strong despite Government crackdown in Ottawa
Canada seems to have awoken a sleeping giant. Spirits may have been temporarily silenced in Ottawa at the hands of the government and their enforcers. People in cities across Canada still stood up in the name of restoring freedom and liberty.

Power tends to forget that when you continually silence peopleβs voices more wonder what things are being said that warrant such silence. Freedom is a voice that no one in any free world views as something to be silenced. More of a value worth fighting and even dying for.
Millions of people throughout history have laid down their lives under the idea of freedom. Those people believed the same things that every peaceful protestor in Ottawa believes. Standing up for an individuals freedom is a cause that is worth whatever the price.
One cannot claim there is a blockade when traffic is still able to flow. May there be some inconveniences to commuters? Yes, but isn't that the idea of getting a governmentβs attention with protesting?
After three weeks how can anyone not acknowledge that the leader of the Canada has had no interaction with the millions that he is supposed to be serving.
Trudeau cannot claim this protest has threated businesses, jobs or communities when he was the one who instructed businesses to shut down for the protests. Of course offering them financial compensation for their obedience. Who is paying for that compensation? It's not the government, itβs the taxpayer..!
Now the governments "police" are harassing any businesses who severed anyone involved with the Trucker protest. Attempting to intimidate any business who chose not to follow the governments shutdown orders.
Remind anyone of a similar time not so long ago?
After two days of police led intimidation/misconduct you cannot claim you are keeping people safe or that anything is under control. You were never protecting anyone's rights or freedoms. For if you were truly doing so the protests would not exist in the first place.
Misconducted ranged from things including using teargas, non-lethal munitions and even horseback riders to clear protestors from areas surrounding Parliament. Such force against protestors who all were peaceful and doing nothing illegal.
You do not have to take my word for it. There are thousands of hours of video online showing exacting what happened in Ottawa. Showing the cold, dark truths of the states power. Not the false misguided impressions given off by the mainstream media or government officials.
Imagine if such force was seen during the riots of 2020. Imagine everyone screaming about how wrong it would be and everyoneβs right to peacefully protest.
A "Red Zone" has been established encompassing several blocks around Parliament and is now functioning as a police state. Fences setup around buildings and blocking off surrounding areas. 100 plus checkouts with police roaming the zone questioning anyone walking inside.
There has been NO end time given for these measures..
This interaction is straight out of country controlled by a dictator. No place who claims to be part of the free world should expirence an interaction like this. Especially when the power used to create it was not even legally justified. Simply declared by "Executive Authority".Β
This weekend serves as a warning to the world as to what the true power of government is. Exacting their will onto the people, without due process, and without remorse.
Ottawa police may think they are coming from a place of power when they say,
"If you are involved in this protest, we will actively look to identify you and follow up with financial sanctions and criminal charges. Absolutely. This investigation will go on for months to come."
It only shows how truly lost they are in the eyes of the people. Using intimidation and threats to exercise authority.
Canadian Officials have warned the public about footage that may appear online. Classifying it as disinformation and introducing strict measures to combat it. As well as filming and documenting everyone and anyone who was involved with the protests.
Plans have been made to go after anyone who may have been involved. Telling the people of Canada if they are standing up for personal rights and freedoms the government will come after them by any means. Taking away individuals livelihoods is a dangerous slope that could have extreme consequences.
Yet when people have nothing left to lose then they lose it.
βYou only have power over people so long as you donβt take everything away from them. But when youβve robbed a man of everything heβs no longer in your power β heβs free again. -Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Not being able to feed or provide for oneself or family can be a compelling motivator. Driving a individual to any means, given they are pushed far enough.
An individualβs freedom and natural rights are the very last things they can be stripped of. We've witnessed this in Nazi Germany with the prosecution of Jews and others races during the Holocaust. During the time Stalin ruled over Russia with an iron fist, silencing anyone he viewed as a threat. In China today where their people are viewed as nothing more then property of the Chinese Communist Party.
As these things are stripped away from free people they will resist. With every authoritarian move to crush opposition. More people will rise up to stand against it.
This was seen around Canada on Saturday. City streets around the country were full of people still protesting for an end to mandates and the restoration of freedom.
We have witnessed how our Constitution become nothing more than a piece of paper. It has no meaning to anyone of us as long as people in authority do not uphold it. Executive overreach has paved the path for new forms of tyranny.
Overreach that should be easily struck down by people who swore an oath to defend our country and uphold the Constitution. Sadly so many lack the courage to do so..
Remember that parliament or congress serves as the voice of the people. Law used to have to be passed by a legislator before any executive authority could enforce it. Now "Executive Power" goes unchecked, functioning in line with how a dictator exercises his power.
Out of all this I see light and hope. More people are awaking to reality as more truth rises to the surface.
Do not forget however that the west, once a beacon of freedom. Has remained silent as the oppression of its own people has been happening. While simultaneously trying to rage WAR in Eastern Europe with Russia..Β
