im sure your personal experience is proof enough for everyone to agree with you...

show me videos of people following poiliverre or o'toole or even scheer and screaming yelling or throwing things.  show me the threats against them.  

 

Im looking.  cant find them.  Did find these though.  Shockingly, they're not my "personal experience" but instead happen to be recorded by the media of all sorts.

 

I don't do anecdotal statements.  I also don't believe deepfake videos or the like.

 

But if you have statements against or credible attacks, threats or intimidation against any conservative MPs or the like please show me

It almost seems like people don't like him. Might explain why he's polling at 22%

NDP House leader says Speaker should resign after honouring man who fought for Nazis

 

https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/canada/ndp-house-leader-says-speaker-should-resign-after-honouring-man-who-fought-for-nazis/ar-AA1hevlK

 

OTTAWA — NDP House leader Peter Julian is calling on House of Commons Speaker Anthony Rota to step down after he invited a man who fought for the Nazis to attend a speech by the Ukrainian president.

 

Rota issued a written apology Sunday and repeated it in the House Monday morning. He said he alone was responsible for inviting and recognizing Yaroslav Hunka last Friday, who fought for the First Ukrainian Division during the Second World War.

 

"I am deeply sorry that I have offended many with my gesture and remarks," said Rota.

 

"No one — not even anyone among you, fellow parliamentarians, or from the Ukrainian delegation — was privy to my intention or my remarks prior to their delivery."

 

Rota's recognition of Hunka was met Friday with a standing ovation from MPs.

 

On Monday morning, government House leader Karina Gould said his decision to invite the man was "deeply embarrassing" and called on MPs to work together to strike the recognition from the record.

 

She said that as a Canadian of Jewish origin and a descendent of Holocaust survivors, she felt "particularly hurt" by the situation.

 

The First Ukrainian Division was also known as the Waffen-SS Galicia Division or the SS 14th Waffen Division, a voluntary unit that was under the command of the Nazis. 

 

The Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center for Holocaust Studies issued a statement Sunday saying the division "was responsible for the mass murder of innocent civilians with a level of brutality and malice that is unimaginable."

 

Julian told the House that Rota's was an "unforgivable" error that brought disrepute to the House of Commons. 

"Unfortunately, I believe a sacred trust has been broken," he told the Speaker.

 

"It’s for that reason, for the good of the institution of the House of Commons, that I say sadly I don’t believe you can continue in this role. Regrettably, I must respectfully ask that you step aside."

 

Gould repeatedly asserted on Monday that neither the government of Canada nor the Ukrainian delegation had any knowledge that the 98-year-old Hunka had been invited to attend an address by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

 

But Conservative House leader Andrew Scheer is still placing the blame with the Prime Minister's Office, saying the government had a responsibility to vet attendees of such a high-profile event for security reasons. 

 

He noted a "straightforward Google search" would have shown the division in which Hunka served during the war.

"If that basic level of vetting is not done by the government, that raises serious concerns. What kind of message does that send to our allies all over the world?"

 

This report by The Canadian Press was first published Sept. 25, 2023.

These Canadian Protesters Became Very Violent But It Wasn't the Truckers (townhall.com)

 

'Threat was very serious': RCMP provide update on Coutts arrests after blockade ends | CBC News many of  the anti vaccers might be uninformed but dont deserve to be threatened with their life from the "Anti-Hate" group

 

 

Now , just because i gave examples does not mean i agree with or disagree with the message of any of these protests, the point was to show that yes the left can become violent
