Reply to comment by Mirria_ in Canada: Hearings to begin on use of Emergencies Act to end convoy by DavidMalony

Canada has a prime minister not a premier, but you were right on Ontario. Though the protest was in Ottawa, it is still a city in Ontario which falls under Ontario Jurisdiction. While the convoy blockaded the Capital, Ford and Co sympathized with the convoy instead of actually doing anything. Furthermore, the emergency acts would have had to been approved by the province, or so is my understanding. So my question is where was Ford and why didn't he do anything? He basically wanted Trudeau to do something so he can find more blame to put on him then do his actual ficking job that taxes pay fir.

I've heard it used both ways. I wasn't sure which was the correct usage in English.

But yeah the protest was largely just a "Fuck Trudeau" more than anything related to mandates. The various moving goalposts showed that they didn't really care if the outcome wasn't Trudeau looking bad. Nevermind that there was an election only months prior, so if the people didn't like how the Libs handled the pandemic they would have voted them out, but that's not what happened...
