#WATCH: Canada's Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance is threatening the protesters like a dictator, telling them to go home or else your truck registration and corporate account will be frozen.
It is to be seen here that so far the Canadian government has not tried to talk to the protesters even once, which is important in a democracy. Canada calls itself a full democracy and ranks fifth in the Democracy Index. @cafreeland
In a separate case, similar demonstrations were held in large numbers in India as well. The government of the democratic country of India held talks with the protesters 11 times. Due to lack of mutual coordination,
the government had withdrawn all the farmer laws on the demand of the protesters. FYI, India ranks 59 in Democracy Index.
Because India is a democratic country. Like Canada, no Emergency act / War Time Act or any such Draconiian law was imposed in India to suppress the protests
And the all ways were open for farmer leaders to talk with the govt. on the Hotline at any time.
And the matter of legal action and the strictness of the police, then it was done only on those people who had damaged the state / civil property.
Protesters collected a large number of donations where some donations also came from abroad and fron Canada too but no one's account was frozen. Registration of the vehicles used in the protests also not canceled. All are still running on the roads. india.com/news/india/bha…
And @JustinTrudeau and some Canadian leaders like @theJagmeetSingh have supported protests in India but they hate same protests in Canada and Calling them Domestic Terrerist.
