I've seen the slippery slope argument presented here many times: "this is just a test to see what people will comply with". It goes both ways. If you get to change federal policy by occupying the capitol, why not organize a group and get what you want? Neither of these approaches aligns with my understanding of democracy.

Just found out that Canada has an over 90% vaccination rate and when Trudeau was called out on that and asked if he was expecting 100% (the impossible), he went in to NPC mode.
Looks like that’s the plan. Hes sticking to the “Great reset” plan of totalitarianism and absolute power. He has no intentions of giving up these emergency powers.

Was there an election for the convoy representatives in that SOS "presser"?

Because make no mistake that’s what our government is.
At the risk of getting too extreme to prove a point you’d be the same type of person who blindly followed the nazis. I’m pretty sure most people who led a resistance against tyranny weren't elected.

Patients and people wanting to be vaccinated were significantly impeded.
They aren't covering both bases in Ottawa. If they are, why also target provincial government cities. We've been told they are planning to revisit Toronto this weekend.
Protests aren't usually accompanied by lists of demands and requirements to meet directly with government officials to direct policy.
I have always thought mandates were a terrible idea that will/would do more harm than good.
I hope whatever this is resolves peacefully and that everyone involved emerges unscathed.

They are covering both bases in Ottawa. If you think that the provincial government is ignorant of what happens in Ottawa or at the border then that speaks to the incompetency of the government and further justifies why they are not qualified to issue and enforce mandates. Provincial government cities across the nation each have their own protests to varying degrees. This speaks to your point earlier about the distinction between provincial and federal mandates. The message to government at all levels is No More Mandates. There are no gaps in coverage, to my knowledge, on behalf of the protestors.
It is not unreasonable for protestors to want to have their concerns be acknowledged. That's the point of the protest. While the protest was initially started by a few organizers it has grown in excess of their influence and they can not vouch for each and every individual present. Disingenuous news outlets and politicians will cite the differences of individual protestors opinions to suggest the protest is aimless but they do this in bad faith. The resounding message amongst all people in the protest is the same. No More Mandates.
I can see we agree on the mandates being a bad idea and that no one should be hurt. The Prime minister could satisfy both these points in a single day by renouncing the policy implemented on January 15th and admitting his mistake in implementing it. the protest could be over so quickly if Justin Trudeau exercised the smallest amount of humility but in this regard, as well as many others, he is completely incapable.

I take neither of those positions. It's possible both the government, and whatever this movement is, are less than ideal - at the same time.

Did you take an intro to philosophy course at brockU or something? Learn a bit about intro to logic. You’re the type of guy to actually use these terms at a bar in a convo while not addressing anything practical or relevant LOL.

Im sure they will call it "terrorism" still though.

Do you really think it's a dichotomy? Either one supports the government 100%ORone supports the convoy 100%?

You seemed to refute my point that protesting the government on hospital alley, on a Saturday, impacts citizens more than politicians.

You don't need appointments where you are?
We have to make sure we have enough doses to cover appointments before we open up to walk ins. Is it different in your part of Canada?

Would you book an appointment at a clinic or pharmacy in the middle of a protest you knew was ongoing? That would seem like poor planning.

Pretty sure Brad was hammered and stumbled into a temporary pop up clinic on the street when he got vaxxed.
If vaccines were any more available here they'd be sending pre loaded syringes in kids cereal boxes.
Collect all four!!

And for those unaware, J.L.C. is another useless troll you best set to ignore, he is only here to sabotage and is basically unaware of his surroundings, engaging him is a waste of energy SRS

We were advised to have our badges with us for access, but not displayed, and not to dress in attire associated with hospital staff.
I wouldn't be as presumptive as to suggest Toronto and Edmonton are the same, or even similar. But, perhaps you've been in both locales, recently.
