When Citizens Stand Up Against Authoritarianism

In increasing numbers, regular citizens of the US and Canada are standing up for their rights and freedoms and doing so against authoritarian politicians who control a complicit media. It's not only the Canadian trucker convoy, but Americans have protested against government mandates, questionable economic policy and parents - after years of relative dormancy - have been standing up to indoctrination practices and overall ineffectiveness of the US education system.
What have the US and Canadian governments done in response? President Joe Biden has used his media arm to double down on authoritarian demands and while having gone as far as treating those who question him or the Left's collective agenda as "domestic terrorists." Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, after hiding behind an alleged COVID diagnosis has sicked tow trucks and police on the convoy's peaceful protesters in a failed attempt to look tough. Both men use their power to denounce those who speak out in disagreement to them as "racists," "nazis" or "dangerous white supremacists" to manipulate public opinion toward compliance and their favor.

In this clip from our February 2022 Ask Us Anything, our panel from the London Center for Policy Research addresses a question from a viewer about what it would take for regular citizens to run with the new-found momentum toward liberty and rights coming from the rallying Canadian truckers through peaceful resistance.

This is a clip from our monthly Ask Us Anything session, where fellows from the London Center for Policy Research answer your questions.
