If you can tune into CTV News Channel you can see Evan Solomon on the ground reporting right in the middle of the protest. Fairly compelling to be in the middle of it, even it is just noise, chaos, and people harrassing him at every turn.

They've given all their money to "professional" commenters under the guise of news articles, so there is nothing left for that type of monitoring.

No they do something if you report them, they hire that commenter as an opinion writer.

It's pretty remarkable how non-violent it's been today in regards to the clearing of the convoy dips***s. It probably helps that the police aren't carrying shields or using pepper spray, etc... Looks like they're just gradually and methodically pushing them out, using as little brute force as possible.

More bright minds interrupting reporters:
"Do you not agree with the Charter of Rights that was signed 62 years ago?"
"If we went to war with Russia, would you go over there and fight?"

Yeah police on horseback are pushing them back now. Where is Rob Brown? this feels exactly like the lead up to the Vancouver Riot. I mean the Professional Surrey coming into Vancouver Riot.

I'm watching the CBC coverage and they just had a shot of the protest and there was a few police officers arresting a protestor. He had his hands tied/cuffed behind his back and then the police started wrapping what looked like a ratchet strap around his torso. Anyone know the reasoning behind the strap?

"I cant believe they're arresting us!!"
But why though?
Its not as though they were ambiguous in their phrasing or anything. They even put up signs.
If you dont leave you're going to get arrested. It seems pretty clear.

I suspect the lack of tear gas is because they are afraid of a riot. The police have said that there is strong evidence of firearms being in the trucks. If they go in with overt force, it can turn deadly.
The consequence of that is: pepper spray is use to disperse a crowd and get them to run home to safety. In this case, they are all getting arrested.

And this is why the officers at Coutts hugging the people there was pretty confusing to me. How easy would it have been to grab any of those officer's service weapons as they hugged? *smh*

from this CBC shot the line looks to be 2 to 1 for police vs terrorists.
Take them out now!

At some point they should just send in a convoy of snowplows.
"Just doing some run-of-the-mill snow plowing...nothing to see here..."

"They have electromagnetic weapons and are draining our cell phones."
Very representative of the majority of Canadians. Yup.
