the judge ruled property rights outweigh protest rights...
What about the rights of Canadians to travel on trains and planes? What about the right to enjoy gathering with our friends and family? What about our right not to fear our government?
What about our right to bodily autonomy, or does that only count when it's not your arm?
I don't know how we will ever heal this country of the divide between those who supported the Convoy and those who have vilified it.
I have supported Alberta’s secession from Canada for quite some time. For me, the Freedom Convoy was the “Last Best Chance”, for Canada. The government’s reaction & this conviction have reaffirmed my beliefs.
Well said, Roxanne! ESPECIALLY regarding the 'other' protesters who are clearly AGAINST CANADIANS and the country at large. They've stated their animosity via outright hate speech towards other cultures. They have FORCED citizens to accept their unruly disrespectful attitudes AND behaviours towards the country they've been ACCEPTED into and are living large off TAXPAYER funded programs all the while the police forces and judiciary are pandering to them. This IS a deliberate attack on everyone spurred on by the WEF UN GLOBALISTS because their entire modus operandi is to destroy countries from within, create civil unrest and then enforce another emergencies act with lockdowns and curfews as their means of 'controlling' the turmoil that THEY'VE created. Once again, problem, reaction, solution. Let's ASK Justice Perkins-McVey what her interpretation of the MASSIVE criminal forces occupying Canada creating and spreading MISCHIEF most harsh in Vancouver, Toronto and elsewhere is because clearly she's missed the target.
Perkins-McVey probably lives in a protected bubble where the system seems to basically work for her and the people she hangs out with. I've noticed in the Lethbridge cases the judges and other Crown officials seem to work very hard to stay ignorant about many key aspects of the issues they are deciding upon. In their minds this self-imposed ignorance is probably seen as giving them the protection of deniability if their appalling judgments are challenged on appeal or some kind of expansive investigation. To me I see a failure of due diligence in the work of all the front line judges and Crown prosecutors in what can fairly be described as the criminal class that dominates Canada's judiciary.
Like you, I sat through the reading of the verdict in that hot court room, with the microphone not as loud as it should have been, straining to hear what the judge was saying. Thanks for your analysis.
By leaning on the statements of eight local Ottawa residents who testified about negative impacts of the 'Convoy, I wonder what difference testimonies of eight residents who were supportive of the protest might have made. A small business that valued the income the protesters generated, a homeless person (who as one protester told me) exclaimed "I hope you never leave" in reference to the readily available free, hot food and beverages and places to warm up by an outdoor heater. But we'll never know.
Listening to the focus on the provincial injuction, I wondered if I had misread the explicit permission to continue to peacefully protest as long as horn honking ceased. But no, it's there in the injuction. Still, Perkins-McVey omitted mention of this. It seems a certain cherry picking is going on where a judge looks for one decision and avoids considering other relevant matters.
The message to all citizens going forward is "watch what you say, watch what you do." Farewell right to peaceful assembly and freedom of speech. Exit stage left.
Just watched the recent you tube post by David (Moose on the Loose) he's uncovered the finances of GEORGE SOROS & The ROCKEFELLERS, they're FUNDING the intense protests by Palestinians et al across the country. Both funders are WEF GLOBALIST members therefore, Carney/Trudeau Liberals would KNOW this because they're all in on Canada's destruction.
I guess that is why these protesters can march in the streets, block traffic, take over buildings and shopping malls (at Christmas I might add). I guess this is why they can march with their faces covered, stop traffic in the street to ‘pray’, and deliberately conduct ‘protest’ outside Jewish places of worship, businesses, schools and neighbourhoods, with impunity. Meanwhile, the real working people of this country, the backbone of this country, protest government overreach into our fundamental freedoms and health and they are prosecuted and persecuted to no end. Our country is truly broken.
Thanks for bringing the freedom of expression versus security of property dichotomy into such such clear relief. From what I've seen of the mob of judges dealing with Coutts matters in Lethbridge, it seems that our judiciary is being coached into outlawing protests in public places. Not once in your essay did I see the term "civil disobedience," obviously an integral tool of reform in democratic societies when the governments act in radical and belligerent ways, as was the case with their insistence on jabbing life-destroying bioweapons into citizens through means such as coercive mandates. A judge in Lethbridge counselled Marco Huigenbos when sentencing him. "just join a political party and work for reform from within."

i am sick of this country's gutless criminal corruption

why do we no longer respect "authority"
yep, sick to the *******

Excellent analysis... And I agree. This decision, especially after such a long and arduous legal process, is indeed unsettling!
