I'm assuming you're referring to Seattle's zone, which was an American political issue, not a Canadian one.

It would be more apt to compare to the recent environmental occupations in _Canada_ over the last few years, as we are not the United States.

>which was an American political issue, not a Canadian one

need I even bother digging up trudeau's statements of support re: american floyd protests?

come on, you know this is a feeble distinction.

other countries (like my own) never needed or implemented these crude, tyrannical vaccine mandates. trudeau is an international laughing stock.

Regardless of his comments on the Floyd protests (which I do not have in front of me), the Canadian situation is comparable only to other Canadian protests. We are not America, and we are a country that has its own way of doing things.

Using the phrase "tyrannical vaccine mandates" is not a great way to ensure a productive discussion, however.

>the Canadian situation is comparable only to other Canadian protests

selective parochialism; you would not hesitate to criticize brutal anti-protest measures in say, russia.

>Using the phrase "tyrannical vaccine mandates" is not a great way to ensure a productive discussion, however.

why should I mince words? that is what they are. just because the canadian ruling party has groupthinked themselves otherwise, does not mean it is not tyrannical. I will criticise the regime the same as I criticise other tyrannical despotisms.

I don't think we can have a productive conversation, but I thank you for teaching me the word "parochialism" (though I disagree with your characterization).
