Actions any of us can take to ensure a peaceful resolution to the current situation.

Liberal way of stuffing unpopular decisions down your throat. Send it to a committee.
May be "ordinary" like minded appointees or bunch of social workers.
Thats who will decide what's right for the kids. Maybe some scientists will add some indisputable evidence about the bad air.

But that is what this whole thing is about.
Government appointees deciding whats right for the good of the people.
Pendulum has started to swing back on that one.
Mr Treudau just needs to convince the masses that he knows whats best for everyone.

but i don't think social workers will help him anymore than the army or the tow trucks

but what an excellent well thought out speaker he is!

Which is why he's falling afoul of the Liberals.

Its disgusting what the media and our politicians and radical twitter tards have tried to do to these people.

They have been constantly slandered for weeks, falsely accused and even now someone pondering taking their kids and confiscating their property.

The same hypocrites who watched BLM burn it down and called to defund the police are now against protests and calling for a riot squad and the military to break it up.

Canadians should be ashamed.

You break the law you pay. Canada is ashamed that assholes would blockade and siege the capital.

And some Conservatives have quit and criticized the CPC caucus over their support for the occupation.

thats ok for conservatives, they are allowed to talk or disagree
liberals not so much, do not criticize the exalted leader

So after almost 2 days, and 91 posts, I just read through the thread. No one even commented directly on my original suggestion. Only 7 likes of the original post, and none of those are by the radical left on here,
who are the ones calling for law and order to prevail.
While I didn't expect much disagreement with my stance, I certainly thought there might be some support, especially by the left, but they won't even acknowledge. Now I expect as much from Chuck, he only responds to me if I bait him with something that he can use to call me a flat earther, but the more moderate, intellectual and literate on his side are also quiet.

Does no one else support the police in these trying times? Does no one else have any sympathy for the impossible position they are being put in? The actions of a few over eager police in Ottawa are tarring the reputation of all the police across the country.

Has anyone else voiced their support to their local law enforcement?

Edit, another suggestion, as if anyone is listening to me.
Take the crowd sourced money, or start another campaign, and use it to support any police involved in the protests who want to resign in protest. Pay their living expenses, help with their legal fight to either get their jobs back after this is over, or to sue the higher ups who tried to force them into unethical actions.
See how many can be convinced to stand up for their own ethics. It wouldn't take very many before the authorities would realize they don't have the confidence of the forces, and a peaceful negotiated resolution would be the only way out.

It is an untenable situation these officers are in. From watching videos from Ottawa and what some of the level headed people are saying, the police are doing what they are told and the most part a lot of what you see in the media as far as police actions is more of a publicity stunt or intimidation tactics. The whole fuel seizure thing with snipers on the roof was meant as intimidation or the mention of sending child services in etc. Enough of these tactics but when vast majority of protesters give the officers no trouble and are nice to them how can they beat their skulls in? It is pure theatre for the authorities and Trudeau himself and which officers are the pawns. How does that make them feel?

Negotiate with who? The ones that want to overthrow a democratically elected government? People who disregard the rights of their fellow Canadians to earn a living and live in peace . They are disrespecting law enforcement , threatening physical harm to anyone who stands up to them. These people are disrespecting our country and its values.

Old fella you’ve sucked on the cbc pipe too long. We can agree to disagree here. I don’t care what you think or believe but this recurring theme from detractors this convoy is a bunch of anarchists looking to cause an insurrection and overthrow the government is believable as 2 weeks to flatten the curve. I know people in Ottawa on the convoy and it is far from a coup. Any change in government comes from within government itself brought upon by itself. Remember we elect a dictator for 4 years here?

So if I understand your post correctly, taken in the context of this thread and my previous post, I should put your vote down in the column of does not support law enforcement?
I didn't think there would be any dissenting opinions on this matter. It seemed quite non-partisan and non divisive, I guess I was wrong.
