Democracy suspended today ahead of police crackdown on peaceful protesters

State Media: 'After several warnings, police moved in to make arrests Friday morning just after 8 a.m.

'Heather Bradley, director of communications for the Speaker's office, said given the exceptional circumstances, the issue was discussed with all parties and Friday's meeting is now cancelled.

'House leaders had reached a deal to debate the use of the controversial Emergencies Act on Friday and through the weekend, from 7 a.m. ET to midnight, with a vote planned for Monday.'

Big surprise: it wasn't the protesters who killed debate in the House, but rather the Liberal Party and NDP statists who want to keep as much distance from the Canadian people and their problems as possible.
