Here is something that complicates the whole thing.

The head of state of Canada is Queen Elizabeth. Canadians do not elect their Prime Minister directly. Trudeau is in a tough place. If he caves, it will likely result with Parliament disbanding and snap elections being called.

The Liberal Patty (Trudeaus party) has a plurality but not a majority of seats in Parliament. They have to work with other parties to keep control. The New Democrats aren’t happy about the mandates either. If 9 of the 25 decide to abandon the mandates, it’s over for Trudeau. At least three have come out publicly, so will 6 more join them? Canada went through this in 2011.

The other option is for Trudeau to send in the military and forcibly remove the truckers. The problem here is that the rank and file military side with the truckers and you risk a disaster. Trudeau is a straight up globalist so he will listen to his masters, but it’s likely to end soon one way or the other.

My one Canadian friend thinks Trudeau resigns by the end of February and the LP hopes that can salvage a snap election and put a moderate leader in. The alternative is a CP victory and Candace Bergen (not Murphy Brown) becomes Prime Minister. She’s the Rand Paul of Canada.

My Canadian buddies said Trudeau requested help from the military right before the truckers arrived in Ottawa and the head of the military said no.
