      I did too. Love Douglas Murray (and Matt Taibbi). He gets some things wrong in his columns and appearances in my opinion (who wouldn't putting every idea you have out there?) but he is clever and insightful. I have to hand it to The Munk Debates for inviting the odious interlocutors, Malcolm Gladwell and Michelle Goldberg.

      That only works because most people in the us don't give a fck about the constitution. They will put up with whatever the supreme court decides, even though they don't have to. for example, No one had to get the mRNA injection, yet people took it out of fear. The constitution stands, but when most people trust corporations and politicians more, that's not a constitutional issue.

    Kind of colouring the protest in Ottawa a bit there with such friendly unthreatening references as people out with their kids and bouncy castles. ("Oh, it was all hugs and kisses".) Isn't that what they used to call yellow journalism? Anyway, true, those things were there but there was also another side that was a lot less friendly and a lot less savory like sh*tting in people's yards and intimidation. Two things can be true at the same time Douglas.
    And why not mention the blockade of the border in Alberta where there was no bouncy castle but where plenty of guns were seized if you think Trudeau invoked emergency measures for no reason. Maybe you should mention this, or the fact that the Ottawa police response was a complete collapse and the OPP (Ontario Provincial Police) were choosing to not get involved, which was a totally political decision. Oh but I forgot you and Orwell stand together. Excuse me, brother.

The Liberal Media (and you) try a silly trick. Douglas Murray would have eviscerated your argument. And BTW, a debate response, which is by definition an opinion, cannot be "Yellow Journalism'.
      And Yes, Trudeau did invoke the Emergency Measures Act for no reason, except naked political reasons - that just confirms your lack of insight.
