According to the courts it did not meet the standard of violence required.

Doesn’t make it illegal bud. Learn how our system works before opening your COVID riddled mouth.

Why tf does it matter what the protests were about? You disagree politically so it’s okay for the government to do that? That’s a slippery slope.

I don’t disagree politically bro, I disagree scientifically, and logically. Our government had a responsibility to remove you terrorists, they just did it a way that allows you twats to act like your oppressed.

“Slippery slope” is a logical fallacy.

The antivax cowards had many peaceful protests previously without issue. They weren’t getting their demands met because their demands were idiotic.

So they escalated to disrupting the functioning of the government. Using psyops tactics against civilians. Harrassing civilians. Disrupting emergency services.

And for what? It wasn’t to increase awareness of covid restrictions. These restrictions were placed on the entire population, we were all aware of them. No it was an attempt to affect a change using extortion. Changes contrary to the democratic will of the country.

Since you love the slippery slope fallacies, consider the slope in the other direction. If an organized crime outfit used intimidation tactics to get their way, could they declare it as a “protest” and get off scot free? Where do you draw the line in that direction?

If it wasn’t illegal then the government wouldn’t have lost the court case.

These idiots think because the CBC supports the story, and the government inquiry pulled the cop trick of investigating themselves and finding they did nothing wrong in a kangaroo court, including gov lawyers by the handful and the opposition not allowed to defend themselves, that when it hit a real courtroom, and was found in violation of the charter, the actual half assed independent judge was the one in the wrong, not the fucking cabal.

No, according to the courts (one court), an emergency in one city does not meet the requirements for the Federal emergencies act, and didn’t take into account the negligence of the multiple layers of regional policing and government who refused to act.

Did you bother reading the ruling? The refusal of the city / province to act doesn’t equate to the inability of them to control the situation. The court definitely did account for that part.

A city under siege with no police protection is an emergency, full stop.

In a world where some consider mean words and minor action as violent, yes it was.

Lol means words and “minor action” it was not. Well we can see you for what you are, trying to downplay reality. Cheers.
