Canada - The Anglosphere's Second Dictatorship

First, Australia went fully Covid totalitarian, whittling away at one right after another. Covid was used as the excuse to make the Australian people prisoners in their own country and their own homes. Nearby New Zealand almost went as far, but has backed away from full totalitarianism.

Next, it’s Canada, with the PM invoking the Emergency Act, unleashing the police on peaceful protesters - actual peaceful protesters rather than the mostly ‘peaceful’ protesters we’ve seen here in the US – with police using horses to move them and, in a few cases, trampling some of them. Police struck others with batons while they were trying to help those who had been trampled In another case a trucker was struck by a police officer with the butt of his rifle. Threats have been made against some of the pets the truckers have with them, in this case confiscating and euthanizing them.

It seems Prime Minister Fidelito Trudeau cannot fathom the idea that there are Canadians who actually believe in freedom, in making their own decisions, in their rights, and questioning the government when they believe it’s wrong.

This begs the question, “Are we next?”

Goodness knows we’ve seen the governors in a number of states have used Covid to exercise powers that have not been granted to them by their state constitutions. The people in their states have pushed back, sometimes with lawsuits, and in at least one case, a recall election to unseat their governor. Washington has also tried to flex its muscles as well, trying to curtail the rights and freedoms all in the name “the public good”. The problem is that none of those things do the public any good.

We’ll have to wait until this coming November to see which direction our nation will take.
