Freedom Protesters 'Dig Their Heels In' In The Face Of Trudeau's Power Grab
Canadian Prime Minister Just 'blackface' Trudaeu amps up his war on protesters and invoked 'emergancy powers' to help control the mess mandates has caused.
In an exclusive with The Daily Wire one protester basically said 'big deal' According to him, Trudaeu's big power move didn't mean crap on the streets. Everything the PM has threatened was already happening to the protesters with the exception of freezing their bank accounts.:
David Paisley says he has been protesting for weeks now and, as a street captain, helps organize protesters and direct those who wish to support the cause with funds, goods, or services. Paisley told The Daily Wire that Trudeau’s announcement, which made headlines across major news organizations in the U.S. and Canada, went off barely noticed by the protesters on the ground.
“No one really cares about any new announcement. I mean the police have been breaking the law long before any emergency power. They were taking our fuel away. They were arresting people for purely having jerry cans or having empty tanks of fuel,” he said.
“They’ve already been doing these ‘emergency powers’ and all it does is make people dig their heels in more,” Paisley added. “The irony … is that these very powers and threats are why we are here.”
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has been criticized by several civil liberties groups and politicians for invoking emergency powers to stop the protests across the country against COVID-19 restrictions.
The Canadian Civil Liberties Association has argued that the protests, which have snarled traffic in cities and at the border, did not meet the standard to have invoked the Emergencies Act.
“The Emergencies Act can only be invoked when a situation ‘seriously threatens the ability of the Government of Canada to preserve the sovereignty, security and territorial integrity of Canada’ & when the situation ‘cannot be effectively dealt with under any other law of Canada,’” it said on Twitter.
The protester did tell DW that Trudaeus baligerant leadership only makes protesters want to 'dig their heels in' deeper:
“[The Trudeau government] underestimated the determination and the intelligence of those here, and so everyone still here on the ground, they’re basically willing to give their lives for this – peacefully of course,” Paisley said.
"They’re prepared to drain every last dollar, even from frozen bank accounts,” he added later.
They're not completely alone. The outpour of public support has made it possible for protesters to continue:
“You come and sit in the driver’s seat for a few hours and you’ll be able to fill up your wallet again. It’s incredible. People are just handing you fifties, hundreds, packs of hundreds. A friend of mine received a Bible and when he opened it up it had 500 cash inside the bible,” Paisley said.
