Oh it was a sad day. My son still remembers live footage that we were watching from our living room in NB, in which the protesters were being surrounded by faceless military while someone was playing the Cranberries song Zombies in the background. Surreal and depressing. And we had no friends or family that were seeing what we were seeing. That's why this substack, and others, are lifelines.
I hope people can remember that not all officers act like that and that many agreed with the truckers. The sight of horses plowing over people was disgusting. Roughly handling good Canadians, our fellow citizens, our people, was wrong.
Rule One has always been engage,talk, and talk some more until everyone departs and aren't hurt..so disappointing...
That dictatorial JT&company spent more than a week assembling the goon squad, is a sign there is still hope the Canada as we knew it, may still be reclaimed. The fearful part remains the total capitulation of our parliamentarians and the official media, both unwilling to speak up as civilization was being destroyed.
And that there is still again, today, silence in the face of bill C- 63, the ultimate perversion of justice, truly shows how thin a tread separates us from gulags.

Thanks, Scott, for this perspective. Good to hear this from a retired officer.
