The horns died down after a few short days, after a reasonable concession was made.

I have a feeling hardly any Canadians at all know what really happened in Ottawa even though there was and is extensive live video evidence streamed and stored on YouTube.

Let's park 100 trucks outside your house for 'a few short days' and blast their horns. Then you can tell me if those days are short or not.

I have friends who live downtown Ottawa. I know exactly what went on. I know what flags were on display.

People need to stop down playing what happened.

If I lived downtown Ottawa and likely worked for the federal government I would be extra sympathetic to any protest at all. I would have to appreciate a democracy in order to work for such agencies, which apparently your buddies don’t.

Furthermore more, demonstrating your deep knowledge of Ottawa.

Federal government workers generally live in Kanata and Orleans. Some work downtown, but generally it is a lot of private sector.

You've twisted the definition of democracy to suit your needs. Very typical behavior of convoy supporters like yourself.
