Freedom Convoy organizers say they will continue to protest on  Parliament Hill despite the federal government's declaration of a state  of emergency."We are not afraid. In fact, every time the government decides to  further suspend our civil liberties, our resolve strengthens and the  importance of our mission becomes clearer," organizer Tamara Lich said  on Feb. 14 in anticipation of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoking the  Emergencies Act over the protests demanding an end to COVID-19  mandates."We will remain peaceful, but planted on Parliament Hill until the  mandates are decisively ended. We recognize that there is a democratic  process within which change occurs. We have never stepped outside of  that process, nor do we intend to. "Trudeau is the first prime minister to use the Emergencies Act. The  act replaces the War Measures Act, which was last used by Trudeau's  father, then-prime minister Pierre Trudeau, in 1970 ... The act gives the state additional powers to deal with the protests  and blockades, such as providing legal tools to cut funding to  protesters, as well as freezing the corporate accounts of companies  whose trucks are used in any blockades and removing their insurance.


Separately, protest convoys set up blockades at border crossings in Ontario, Alberta, Manitoba, and British Columbia. The blockade at the Ambassador Bridge connecting Windsor to Detroit, which accounts for hundreds of millions of dollars in trade between Canada and the United States, was cleared over the weekend...  Lich said Canadians "should be surprised" that such "an extreme measure" is being used against peaceful protesters. "We have countless vulnerable people in our crowd, including  children, the elderly, and the disabled, who cannot be met with force by  a genuine liberal democracy.


Lich said she realizes some people are opposed to the protests, but noted that a democratic society "will always have non-trivial disagreements and righteous dissidents." "There are many reasons for us opposing the mandates," she said.  "Some of us have been mistreated by our government, including many of  our indigenous communities, who have personally experienced medical  malpractice...Addressing the prime minister, Lich said, "No matter what you do, we will hold the line." "There are no threats that will frighten us." Brian Peckford, former premier of Newfoundland who is acting as a  spokesperson for the Freedom Convoy, said this is "a very, very strange  moment in our history."...
