The Chinese government called those tens of thousands of people “A small band of hooligans and gangsters.” That immediately reminded me of something Justin Trudeau said about the trucker protest last year. > The small fringe minority of people who are on their way to Ottawa who are holding unacceptable views that they are expressing do not represent the views of Canadians… Trudeau had armies of police officers storm in, mass arrest people and beat them with batons to clear them out. I bet he would have had the army open fire on them if he thought he could get away with it.
