And that's how fast a country can become a tyranny.
Yep, because all that coward Trudeau had to do is meet with the Canadians over their concerns about vaccine freedom of choice and the unconstitutional mandates born of fear and political postering.
We have plenty of unvaccinated and vaccinated employee's working at our company, and during the first rounds of COVID everyone was unvaxed, and they survived after a round of infection, and they all returned to work as productive employees. During the second rounds of COVID - Omicron etc, the vaccinated were affected mostly over the Christmas and New Year holiday's, and they also got over it and returned to work to be productive citizen's again. If anyone is afraid of the virus, they should mask up and wash their hands as a personal choice, but nobody fears each other, and no one forces or tells anyone what to do at our company or in our personal lives. Everyone gets along great, and no one tells anyone what to do. That's working out perfectly, and our company hasn't had hardly any loss in production nor has it had any loss in man power since the thing started over two years ago now.
Thank God I work for a company that has some common sense, and live in a state that has some common sense... Glad they follow the science, and don't just follow the loud and arrogant voices of irrational fears over this thing.
I can understand the protest across the world, because we have exactly what we had prior to world war two in the world, these want to be dictator's attempting to take Total control. Didn't end well then, and it won't end well again. People best brush up on their history.
Using a virus to take control is a new one, but the tactics are the same.
The Canadian protest would have worked better if the organizer's wouldn't have targeted the commerce of Canadian's in order to make their point. Turning the average Canadian that can't withstand the time period it might take to get results into an anti-protestor is not the way to get results. Having a beef with government should only involve protestor and government. The truck's and protestor's should have surrounded parliament with so many truck's, and thousand's of protestor's calling on their representatives to force Trudeau to step down before the protest would leave parliament. In the mean time Canadian families and workers are still moving about freely, helping their families, working, and supporting from behind the lines their fellow protesting citizen's for the cause that most Canadian's believe in.
Take Canada as say a battle ground, where as you have the directive which is to make Trudeau step down by peaceful means, and you have your rear support that is also supported by strategies that keep them strong, supportive, and diligently behind the cause. That's the way you run a protest. If you cause pain and suffering to come to your foundation's in which you stand upon, then you will lose that support because government forces can wait you and them (who are being hurt by the longevity of the protest) out.
The only way a protest works, is to go to the government for a redress of grievances by showing up by the thousand's upon a government mall that totally addresses government directly, and let it know those grievances, and demand change from that vantage point. MTCW.
