The protesters are not truckers. Truckers deliver stuff. They are downtrodden in many cases and they have to work for a living. The last thing a real trucker ever wants to do is get in the way of other truckers trying to make a living. No these are jerks who brought trucks with them to a protest. I am not going to judge their protest even though I disagree with them. I believe in protest, I don't believe in terrorism.
When a person bring weapons with them or they bring and use large trucks in a threatening way, I will judge that their tactics have changed from protest to terrorism. They are no longer just a person with a cause they believe in, speaking out for the cause. When they interrupt things in a threatening manner, they are a terrorists.
The First Nations has spoken about this clearly. https://indiancountrytoday.com/news/first-nations-speak-out-against-trucker-convoy
Canada has the tools to deal with this, the question that applies to this is just like the question of justice we are often asking ourselves in the USA. Do these laws apply to rich white folk or do we only reserve harsh treatment for minorities?
