No, this is in Canada, about vaccine mandates. You're thinking of the Colorado case

Hasnt it mostly been people just fearmongering about them but then nothing happening except for some visible Nazi assholes and putting clothes on statues?

They're protesting over a dumb complaint, and they have their fair share of assholes who need their skulls knocked a few times, but seems mostly harmless to me.

His sentence was later reduced to like 5 years after a bunch of people protested

But anyway yea, that's a different case than what TC is talking about

Just because it seems harmless from a violence standpoint doesn't mean it actually *is* harmless.

The huge mall (CF Rideau Centre) in the area of Ottawa that these people are in is still closed. That's *a lot* of people being put out of work right now.

Excessive honking, people can't sleep in Ottawa. Businesses have been vandalized for simply placing an LGBTQ flag in their window. People walking by to get to work are being harassed and sometimes assaulted. This is far from peaceful but it's not technically violent so I guess it's ok.

Does Canada have an equivalent of the national guard? What about the military? If everyone is just going to let the right win then just give the government to them and get it over with. Same goes for here in the US.

Premierships collapse in Westminster systems and snap elections can be called on a whim, thats not advocating a coup.

If they actually try to storm government buildings trying to kill politicians or prevent a lawful transfer of power, then theres a 1/6 comparison.

They've already said that bringing in the military is absolutely the last thing they want to do.

Like not even from an optics standpoint, it kind of just guarantees things would turn violent.

They literally just had an election. These guys didn't like the results, it's not a coup but it's not healthy democracy.

Either bring them in or keep letting a bunch of nuts keep a stranglehold on the city and causing harm to innocent folks. It also gives the right the idea that they can keep doing stuff like this and get away with it. Just like how 1/6 was here.

Calling for resignations of government officials is basically Protesting 101.

Theyre calling for a lot of trash, but nothing that is remotely earth shattering from a looney loonie perspective.

Which is, again, not a coup attempt.

Charlottesville was a bit different though, it didn't have any specific public policy goal in mind. They were protesting something. Though really according to the participants and organizers it was supposed to a coming out for the American right wing fringe to push for mainstream acceptance while pursing violence as a secondary objective.

These chuds have made specific demands.
