Canada's capital city is now under martial law. Police have ordered MPs off of Parliament Hill. They have ordered peaceful trucker protesters out of the city, and are arresting them en masse. And now the police are ordering journalists not to record their crackdown.
Yes, a lot of right wingers (specially neocons) still believe in that "thin blue line" shit. While cops are siding with the "defund the police" crowd. Clown world indeed.
