Well that will certainly go to appeal. I watched (and listened, through their Zello channels) that entire event very closely. I was still laid off from covid at that point so I had the time. The local authorities were doing sweet FA and the federal government was absolutely justified in doing what it did. After 3+ weeks of no action by local authorities and thus no movement with clearing this siege the feds stepped in and cleared it up in a day or two. That shows how little resolve the convoy participants really had and thus how little the Ottawa police were interested in doing their jobs.
I agree, as someone who also did follow it closely they had no choice. They had a bunch of people acting against them politically, and stopping anything from being resolved.
I was suprised to hear this and fully expect a reversal on appeal.
