Cops advancing onto Parliament so I have to go to streets. I have met no one from the United States yet. Everyone I have met is from East Coast, West Coast, Prairies, Quebec, Ontario. #Ottawa, #Canada. People are still trying to get into city, to join, through the checkpoints. pic.twitter.com/qCbxPmGxux

"Police officers advanced on demonstrators at gunpoint,smashing truck windows and arresting protesters…an aggressive escalation in the government’s effort to end the protests…" Honest reporting by @nytimes which has riled up sections of Canadian media. https://t.co/CynOpqGaDt

A reporter with Rebel who is with the protestors, at the front-line says there are more people here today than yesterday. This could mean folks have managed to find a way of getting in.

Standing peacefully on public space is not assault. But thank you for clarifying that you are, in fact, using tear gas and/or mace https://t.co/mdSz6SPLQ5

Freedom of movement between provinces is another Charter right the police has taken upon itself to cancel, even though this is not outlined in the emergency orders. Police state. https://t.co/XQJQ1YCN4A

police are aggressively clearing a peaceful protest of people (most of whom are not truckers) on foot on public space. Despite the fact that the emergency orders say that peaceful assembly is still legal and permitted in this area. https://t.co/56szPhFys9

"Why do you have guns against us? We're Canadians. We don't have weapons. We can't hurt you and we don't want to hurt you. Don't hurt us." Trucks are mostly gone so it's extraordinary the police continue to push against peaceful protestors. https://t.co/BXLmppQkrl

This is the definition of a “police state”; trudeau has basically told the police to do whatever it takes (while claiming the authority to allow him to do that is constitutionally compliant). https://t.co/XyqlHbJZIq

Freeland explains that emergency powers such as “fintrack” i.e the [previously illegal] ability to surveil and collect the financial information of those who contribute to political causes/ fundraisers will now “be made permanent” — (with support from most of the left of course) https://t.co/v57XeRECGe

Alberta will launch a Court challenge of the Trudeau government’s invocation of the Emergencies Act, because it is:
– unnecessary
– disproportionate
– violates natural justice
– intrudes into provincial jurisdiction
– creates a dangerous precedent.https://t.co/STzgfZzhBk— Jason Kenney (@jkenney) February 19, 2022

Many gassed/#peppersprayed (including me), many arrested/assaulted. By late afternoon massive crowds (special shout out to #trades) inspired impromptu dance party for spirits/warmth. Approx. 3 hrs ago, cops pushed people further down Bank St. & erected another barricade. #Ottawa pic.twitter.com/oaIqt9LMT1

Ange pulled from car by #cops. Assaulted & arrested. Had bare feet in freezing temps/snow for over an hr. After arrest & they smashed car windows out. He now has nothing but clothes he is wearing. Car impounded. A #local663's $50 donation went to Ange for medication. #labour https://t.co/BgyGNzvrpe

I hope everyone appreciates @JustinTrudeau’s Canada… “Protesters” chant “we love you” to the police. Police respond by setting off two percussion grenades. Any MP who does not unequivocally condemn this outrageous escalation is a disgrace to Canada https://t.co/9sz3Cmwf4O pic.twitter.com/Ow09utn691

Trudeau & Freedland, two tools of empire, are facing the greatest crisis in leadership of any North American/Euro gov’t in years, imposing unprecedented emergency rule, & dispatching cops to trample protestors
Take note of who is providing them with left cover

The Left is missing its historical moment for the coming century and in my hometown. I'm without words.

I had always defined myself as a leftist, and was registered Green, but was open to all opinions.
Now words cannot express how astoundingly disappointed I am in the left, as virtually everything we stood for has been abandoned.

Never forget that during an actual workers’ uprising, self-proclaimed socialists called the workers Nazis and sided with Trudeau as he turned Canada into a full blown police state. Hatred of the working class has become a defining feature of the modern left.
— alex g (@galexybrane) February 20, 2022
If you think the government should be able to arrest peaceful protestors, freeze their bank accounts, and work with the media to harass anyone who supports them, then you are not “anti-fascist.” You are the fascist.

UPDATE ON MOHAWK WOLF CLAN GRANDMOTHER TRAMPLED BY POLICE HORSES
Candy Sero, a 51 year old Tyendinaga Mohawk Wolf Clan grandmother was among those injured by a police horse charge in Ottawa yesterday. Sero, who uses a walker, has been on the front lines supporting the protests against vaccine mandates since shortly after they began in Ottawa. pic.twitter.com/KmPwOXYuJ0
— Real Peoples Media (@realpeoplesmedi) February 19, 2022
Rumours have spread that Candy has passed away as a result of the police attack. These rumours are incorrect. Candy is currently recovering in an Ottawa hotel. To view an interview with Candace a few days before the police charge, visit https://instagram.com/p/CaJcMxrOBSO/
The family member said that while Candy has been released from the hospital, she “also has something wrong with her hips and back, and a great big hoof print on the side of her hip.” The source indicated that Candy said had been stepped on by the horses multiple times.
After being trampled by the riot police horses of the Toronto Police Department, Candy was taken to the hospital and diagnosed as having a fractured clavicle. Real People’s Media has spoken with a family member who has spoken with Candy.

The party is back in Ottawa. As I noted this morning, this movement is only going to get bigger.Most folks I've spoken to over the last 3 weeks had never even heard of the organizers. It's even bigger than the vaccine mandates at this point given the events of the last few days. https://t.co/gXX1dM7bEK

they would’ve suppressed all of this
And journalists would have helped them
