The fact of the matter is when the Ferry Creek protests were going on in one of the last sections of old growth forest in BC, the RCMP used mace, tear gas, swat helicopters, etc but the covid convoy came to Victoria they had free reign over downtown.

Apparently, civil disobedience is only allowed when it's annoying in the downtown area, not if it's actually preventing corporate profits.
