Toronto Sun: 'At no time since the Freedom Convoy protesters arrived in Ottawa on Jan. 28 did they attempt to overwhelm security forces and invade Parliament, threatening the lives of MPs and Senators, as thousands of U.S. rioters invaded Congress on Jan. 6 and threatened the lives of American politicians...
'At no time, other than through rhetoric and a bizarre and undemocratic manifesto, did the Ottawa protesters actually attempt to throw out the Trudeau government by force, contrary to the U.S. rioters on Jan. 6, who actually attempted to overturn the results of the U.S. presidential election by force, throw out Joe Biden as incoming president and replace him with Donald Trump.
'Charges laid against the protesters in Ottawa mainly have to do with criminal offences such as mischief and counselling to commit mischief. Not crimes such as assaulting, resisting, or impeding police using a dangerous weapon, or entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds with a deadly or dangerous weapon, which have been laid against alleged rioters in the U.S.'
