The Epoch Times: 'Alberta Premier Jason Kenney says the “media has been predictably silent” on the display of communist signs at pro-lockdown counter-protests in Ottawa, drawing a contrast to the wide condemnation of Nazi symbols that appeared in isolated incidents during the trucker protests, which Kenney said he had called on convoy organizers to disassociate themselves with.
'“Two weeks ago I called on convoy organizers to disassociate themselves from symbols of hatred displayed by a small number of people. They did so,” Kenney wrote in a post on Twitter on Feb. 12.
'“Today pro-lockdown counter protestors displayed Communist flags & signs in Ottawa, but the media has been predictably silent about it.”
'Kenney said it’s “vile” for some on the left in Canada to continue the romanticization of communism—which resulted in the death of more than 100 million people worldwide, according to Harvard University Press’s Black Book of Communism—yet he said such conducts have largely been ignored by the mainstream media.'
