The truckers and friends did a such great job here, really. Pressured provinces to roll back mandates and protocols while keeping everything peaceful, scared Trudeau into an overreach that even woke up some diehard leftists and unified the opposition, and then breezed on cue. This left Trudeau with two lousy choices: either continuing his Emergency Act crusade, perhaps fermenting an actual revolution as he would be unequivocally looking (more) like a dictator, or, as he did, sheepishly pulling it back almost as quickly as he declared it, basically negating any credible attempt to declare victory and highlighting the absurdity of the action in the first place. It’s really quite inspiring and shows how we CAN overcome these people by being smart. They’re not as clever as they think they are and arrogant to a fault. And we all know their parlor tricks at this point… as we see them desperately trying to wag that old dog with the Ukraine.

End of empires. To quote a famous philosopher, “Sad!”
