Here’s what to know as Ottawa braces for Canada Day protests amid ‘lingering trauma’

The nation’s capital is bracing for a Canada Day set to draw large crowds after two years of virtual celebrations — just months after an unprecedented illegal demonstration that police say is still causing “lingering trauma” among Ottawa residents.

In normal years, Canada Day festivities draw thousands to the lawns and streets around Parliament Hill for concerts, fireworks and parties. COVID-19 forced celebrations to be virtual instead, in 2020 and 2021.

… official celebrations will be based at LeBreton Flats, the festival grounds roughly a 20-minute walk west of Parliament Hill, as the parliamentary precinct battens down.

The public’s disdain for Junior and his fellow LPC grifters is well deserved.  No wonder they’re afraid and so quick to criminalize the citizen’s they allegedly serve.
