I want to back it up to the length of time the government took to respond to this protest. If these were indigenous protesters in downtown Ottawa beeping their horns and blocking streets, they would have summarily been arrested and removed. Failure to do that led to the Emergencies Act being invoked. It was a real failure on the part of police services and governments to respond in the same way they would to any protesters, which they didn't do in this case.
I hope that answers your question, sir.
