I read last night that Trudeau had called a late night meeting of government officials and that he had one scheduled early today with the governors. It sounds like he’s following Biden’s urging to “federalize” the “response” to the truckers, which I assume means the use of the military to crush the protesters.

He could end this immediately by just listening to the Canadian people, who have had enough tyranny theater and just want their lives back. But he is so obsessed with his power and image that he just won’t let go and I think he’s going to force the situation to violence and probably will end up crushing the protest and probably killing a lot of the protesters.

There have been protests all over the world against the arbitrary and irrational actions of government that have resulted in the loss of lives, livelihoods and in fact the loss of society and civilization in some places. Extreme poverty has soared, and I think there may soon be famines in some parts of the world. These are legitimate complaints. But the governments refuse to even meet with the protesters, much less understand and grant their peaceful pleas, and instead turn to force (as we saw in Paris yesterday, where Macron’s goons had “dangerous” women and children fleeing before them in the streets and tear gassed on-lookers for good measure).

I am very worried that if the Canadians use force and crush this protest, which so many people have looked to for inspiration and courage, that all of the governments will follow suit and that we will enter an age of such tyranny that we could never have imagined it.

Alternatively, he is fearful and unable to see a clear choice forward. In panic, he ineffectively attempts to strike out.

If he does that, it's fewer truckers to deliver the goods. Then come the consequences, which would be surviving truckers quitting, leaving even fewer truckers to deliver the goods. What's his strategy for that? Tossing petit fours from his balcony to the starving masses?

This is what a great many FReepers have been trying to tell you all was coming, just as prophesied in Scripture. Please turn to Jesus.
