MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough is suggesting that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau should have taken tougher steps to break up the so-called “Freedom Convoy” protests sooner than he did.
During a segment on “Morning Joe” Wednesday, Scarborough said, “I really don’t understand what Prime Minister Trudeau was doing. It seems that they went out of the first several weeks, knocked on the windows, and said, ‘What’s this about?'”
“Seriously, it’s just not that hard. You get police officers to go out, and they bang on the window, roll it down, and say, ‘Hey, you need to move this. If you don’t move this, we’re going to arrest you, we’re going to charge your company, and we’re going to impound your truck. That would happen in New York City. That would happen in a lot of cities across the country. And I’m not exactly sure why it didn’t happen in Canada,” he added.

Earlier this month, truckers converged on Ottawa, Canada, and border crossings, to protest COVID-19 Vaccine mandates. The protesters used their trucks to block traffic and shut down border crossings and streets in Ottawa.
