(Gregg Pupecki, Headline USA) A massive police force that was militarized by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s martial law order, but not yet approved by Parliament, moved into the protest area wearing riot gear and brandishing military hardware.
Tactical LRAD sonic weapon armored vehicles were seen in the streets, with Trudeau’s troops wearing hearing protection and gas masks. Snipers were deployed and positioned on top of surrounding buildings.

Weeks of love and hugs from protestors turned into police pushing, stomping, smashing truck windows and forcefully arresting non-compliant citizens. Truckers were seen fleeing from their trucks running to safety.
Truckers who were peacefully voicing their concerns over vaccine mandates were either arrested or retreated.
Trucks were towed and private property confiscated. Truckers came for freedom and are now being financially ruined, with licenses striped and bank accounts seized. Their government never addressed their grievance, as Trudeau refused to meet with the well organized Freedom Trucker organization.
As peaceful citizens were being forcefully arrested, Canadian Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, a World Economic Forum official, spoke and defended her government’s decision to crack down and squash the downtown Ottawa protestors, saying, “Canada’s economy and democracy are being threatened.”
“When this crisis is over, all of us will need to work hard to heal our country,” Freeland said.
“But today, our economy and our democracy are facing a serious and foreign-funded threat,” she gaslighted. “These illegal blockades and occupation cannot be allowed to usurp the authority of democratically elected government.”
