With honking trucks, disruptive occupations, and border blockades, protesters spent weeks pushing back against Canada’s COVID-19 restrictions.
But did they manage to get their message across? Although most Canadians are fed up with restrictions, many of the tactics of these protests were off-putting, with the messaging at times extreme, and demands for immediate policy changes unrealistic.
Eric Sorensen looks at whether the movement’s strategy tactics paid off, and if Canadians feel any different toward public health measures.

polished propaganda to a crazy level.
This is such a lie. You as the media should tell the truth. Horgan, you have tarnished the legacy of Tommy Douglas and Jack Layton. They cared about Canadian citizens. They understood that they served the people, not the other way around. If anyone divided this country, it was the government. SHAME ON ALL OF YOU
Are people dropping out or sick in Ottawa because people are protesting without mask ? No
Mixed results, you mean because you’re reporting is so biased. As many have displayed on flags, Media is the Virus
Every new channel could have just actually taken a neutral approach to this situation instead they just proved they were government influenced
Ya we're Canadians living under a tyrannical government with our freedoms vanishing. While getting vaccinated makes no difference in getting infected or transmitting the virus you would have to be brainwashed to believe mandates are for your good.
If Globel news started depending on their viewers for their income instead of the liberal government maybe honest journalism would be the center stage.
Yes!! Vaccined Canadians made this happen, the opening up of the country again. Not the truckers with its white Supremacy undertones. Terrorizing the citizens of Ottawa cause they can't take it anymore. Many of these protesters would be in distress if they knew how they were ben used by unsavory political people to humiliate Canada on the world stage because our countries is see as LIBERAL AND SOCIALIST. This movement is being used a a recruiting tool for white Supremacists groups all over the world. Just go watch some of the previous videos made by some of the organizers. The truth is out there. Thank goodness for digital technology.
Dislikes aren’t counted, but you can clearly see where we all stand from the comments. I rarely listen to these embarrassments of a journalists, but every so often to see how full of crap they are
This is terrible journalism. Horrifically edited. Its not based on science anymore, the police crackdown is brutal and violent and Trudeau's overreach is mounding extremely high now. But you will ignore that too. Just terrible journalism, so much for free press.
Canadian mass media is a travesty. None of your reporting reflects what actually happened. You lie and propagandize for your “Liberal” authoritarian masters.
Count this DISLIKE, YouTube.
Canada is becoming a communist country as we speak. From being on the frontlines the main stream media is totally warping the story. Trudeau is ruining us.
Use this as the dislike button for main stream media. 👎 with live streams and social media showing the true events, msm is just embarrassing themselves. YIKES
Yes, you can see COVID is super dangerous…
Over 20 days of nobody wearing a mask, hugging and dancing, and yet their was no “COVID” outbreaks 🤔
biAS
I will never vote liberal or NDP again in my life after what has been done here, nor will I ever watch CTV, Global and especially CBC. It's amazingly hypocritical to see these politicians and media support protests in Russia, Kazakhstan, India ect and then act in exactly the same fashion as those governments when faced with a protest
Global view is reason I stopped watching TV years ago Total Garbage
Talk about how busy mental health wards are right now.
whos paying for vaccine injured hospital bills
sad. news media is talking about The Truckers Negative. I mean Major Canadians negative.
More scary than the canadian liberal party is the number of idiots in these comment threads thinking they have a clue
“The vast majority of Canadians have accepted the science”..? 🤦🏼♂️😂😂😂 you mean the lack of science.. mkay.
they really still trying to blind people lol.
Glad to see proper action being taken…
England is fully open. None of this should even be a discussion in Canada, we should’ve opened months ago
Notice how they only have people against the protesters interviewed.
The greater good. OMG here comes a Facist state. Individual choice has been taken away. Far too many were sacrificed during ww2 to let Facism rule again.
If they want the mandates lifted, Then they would stand with the truckers!
If you got your Vaccine … Then why do you care if some don't? Why do you care if the non Vaccinated die? is it because they are not dyeing at the rate that you media tell you they are? because you are finding out that people you know that are vaccinated and non vaccinated are both getting Covid and are not dyeing or that there are a lot of people vaccinated that are dyeing?
90 % of truckers are vaccinated.
Vaccinations is not what the protest was about.
It was about the Honorable Prime Minister taking the truckers from being front line essential working Hero's ( his words ) to the status of Zeroes because he rewrote the deal about having to isolate when returning to Canada after picking up or delivering into the USA.
Jan 15 the new Manadate rules took effect.
Screwed the truckers livelihoods.
Do your research!
What type of logic is that. We have the right to choose what she thinks is good for her may not be good for me, it could be detrimental to me. There is no greater good because vaccinated as well as unvaccinated dies. Our tax dollars goes in to health so whether or not I am vaccinated I am entitled to healthcare. Why don’t the media show what is happening in countries that has a very high vaccination rate.
Why is the media ignoring the people? You should be reporting facts with objectivity. Seems based on what is happening in Canada you are just the voice of an authoritarian system. What is happening should not be tolerated, that is why there is constitution.
The media and all their negative rhetoric killed this.
Whether it was the lies about the defacing of Terry Fox, or the crippling of the Canadian economy( like has been going on for two years) the masses cannot be galvanized anymore against anything.
It sad.
Yeah it’s clear now. If you are a liberal or extreme liberal that supports b l m or the alphabet mafia you’re safe in this world. If you have a differing opinion you’re going to get trampled by horses told you’re a conspiracy theorist and arrested. Meanwhile the hypocrite while b l m and the gay community can go burn down entire cities. Kicking and screaming burning cities apparently you get your way. Being peaceful and honking a horn you get arrested.
