    The fact that this was up for debate and almost didn’t happen shows how far our legal system has fallen.

      Well you want the best defense strategy as possible, because it reduces the risk of having an appeal.

    This will be interesting. One of the claims that convoy people make is that it was all just a peaceful protest and nothing bad happened, ever, at all, nope, no harassing people, no break-ins, no noise, no urinating on monuments or flying Nazi flags.

    It’s allowing people–especially those in their private media bubble–to shift the narrative from what is actually is, to how the convoy people really are poor, victimized freedom fighters and the response was, like, totally overblown, and Trudeau is a dictator, etc, etc.

    If this happens, expect some freakouts when that comfortable media bubble gets pierced.
