"Alcohol" is not equivalent to an attempt by right wing domestic terrorists to disrupt the supply and chain and crash the economy. The thread is rubbish.

Hey. Hey. Assuming overwhelming state powers is a *family tradition*. War Measures Act for père; WMA in velvet gloves for fils. That and hockey are what we have to pass on to our own children. Kind of brings a tear to your eye.

I like Nora but there's a lefty variety that tends to be oblivious. The lesson of Ottawa isn't "defund the police" (and heaven knows I hate slogans) it's "reform the police". Enforcing the peace is exactly what the police is needed for, and somehow I don't think Nora would do it.

In the same way that there's always someone out there in Dipperland to propose a motion to abolish the armed forces. I'm fine with that - provided that the other side does it first. And as that won't happen, well, it's daft that we should do it.

But in the absence of action from municipal and provincial leadership and police, what's the alternative? Ms. Loreto is right about systemic problems - but the same people now holding our streets and economy hostage will scream even louder at us addressing those systemic issues!

Maybe Ottawa's a bit of an abstraction to a lot of ppl, even some CDNs. The menacing, destructive nature of the occupation (which could have been handled better from the start) requires a firm response. I agree with Jagmeet. Lamentable but will support PM 2/2

Yeah why use existing legislation to defeat a fascist group occupying cities and disrupting commerce after police have serially failed to?

But PM Trudeau used very measured tactics - he did not deploy the military- I think what he did was incredibly creative!
