All right, we got a man, just, I'll show you this, just lying down in the snow, let's
00:00:18.200
see if we can get it, so he has just made himself the lion, he's just lied down, these
00:00:27.800
men have linked arms, these men have linked arms here, so here's the line, these men have
00:00:44.660
linked arms, some have lied down, let's get, it's just so hard to hear him, there's so much
00:00:50.600
going on, I know, so, like, there's the one out, got to learn to get out of town, I gotta film
00:01:23.280
I saw the name and I took it out to Instagram, too much pride, so there, we all fight this
00:01:49.440
at least there's no snipers on the roof for the western
00:01:53.920
all right cops are starting to push cops are starting to push the line
00:01:57.960
it's happening now it's going down the line is being pushed
00:02:01.700
and they're holding the line people are going down
00:02:07.100
get her get her out get her stuff get her stuff
00:02:58.680
Women are so good in here! We love you! We are your people!
00:03:13.680
You have to seize the conscience before you lose their humanity!
00:03:53.680
So it looks like the man who was lying down, the line is pushed by him, the cops have him.
00:04:14.800
There's a big push going on again, the cops are pushing the line here.
00:04:18.580
Here it is, cops are throwing punches, cops are throwing punches.
00:04:23.680
It's going to push, people are holding the line.
00:04:41.280
I know I got to hold myself and I got to hold myself.
00:04:54.160
This, this system and it may bring me into the One.
00:05:56.700
Now I thought I'd see French and English holding the line together.
00:06:28.900
I'm going to do some reconnaissance around the scene just for five minutes, see if the
00:06:32.240
cops are coming to flank or anything when everyone's attention is drawn on the line.
00:06:36.220
We're just going to go check out what's going on behind the line just to see if there's
00:06:40.640
anything that's about to happen down the street.
00:06:46.080
We're going to check, see if there's other lines for them.
00:06:51.980
But we don't want, you know, don't want to be taken unaware.
00:06:58.900
So here we have a smaller police presence and a smaller protest presence.
00:07:08.220
So a few cops not in force here but just in numbers.
00:07:13.160
We've got some armoured vehicles with a, at least there's no guns on that gun turret.
00:07:22.640
We've got cops there so we'll check out down here.
00:07:38.720
I don't see any police down George Street near the Byward Market.
00:07:46.740
So we still have them holding their, they have not sent the horses in but they're, they're
00:08:24.820
As soon as they touch you, you are allowed to defend yourself.
00:08:42.240
That looks like it's not going to resolve itself anytime soon.
00:08:53.680
Just a few cops down there where they were before.
00:08:59.000
I'll head on the bridge and we'll get back to the front lines.
00:09:46.100
jesus more police than there is bloody protesting
00:09:57.140
i was following orders you can't clear your touching
00:10:16.100
okay looks like the end of the stairs i can't get back into the heat of it this way so sorry everyone
00:10:33.460
so looks like we didn't miss much here i'll head back to the epicenter but
00:10:40.020
right now it doesn't look like there's any major police flanking maneuver
00:10:43.380
it seems like it's concentrated right here we've got the horses
00:11:04.900
uh i talked to her mom whose 11 year old son was right by her side and as a mother myself i was
00:11:11.940
curious to know about the motivation what was driving her from her child then she admitted that
00:11:17.540
she had been here for the first week and you'll recall all my instructions to the canada day
00:11:23.460
atmosphere all right guys trying to get everybody up top rolling the line up top right
00:11:31.380
so if you see the pocket the protesters the line has been pushed back here it is
00:12:09.140
so we got a we got a counter protester yelling about donald trump
00:12:13.700
i don't think i mean this is you know classic everything i don't like is donald trump and
00:12:19.940
therefore bad seems to be the the ethos of the capital protests
00:12:39.220
it's your consciousness officers do the right thing you know no one here means anyone any harm
00:12:44.420
you have been lied to you've been brought in because you haven't been around us
00:12:49.780
stand with the people and don't conduct these orders children will look back and say what did you do for
00:13:12.180
ignore the provocateur guys we've ignored him all week let him say his feasts
00:13:20.180
everybody's leaving them all know he's got his right to his opinion too
00:13:24.180
everybody comes asking where pat king is well he's a grifter guys don't put your faith in grifters
00:13:37.540
put your faith in the people all right let's go back right there this man's been holding the line
00:13:56.180
oh okay the protesters have done something here so here's here's here's here's here's
00:14:36.020
if the city refused to clear the snow and the protests have been on it
00:14:40.660
a new barricade has been formed the protesters are putting in a snow barricade
00:14:50.100
the pops have seen it and they're now pushing through the line
00:15:09.700
so they've got someone down there they got a protester got through they've tackled him
00:15:13.620
they've tackled one protester behind and they've made an arrest there i see a cop with a loaded tear
00:15:26.020
so we got crowd control weapons locked and loaded at the protesters right now
00:15:36.340
so the snow line did not work no it worked it worked it really okay it worked in the sense that it
00:15:42.660
pushed it made them act made them act it it did force their hand another one is being erected behind
00:15:49.060
the protesters are you on the walks i'm on national telegraph
00:15:56.660
so this looks like it's a game it's lull everyone to into into two moments of peace push the line grab a few protesters at a time tackle them arrest them take them away push the line forward tackle push them away this seems to be right here a vital choke point without journalists people are recording
00:16:14.660
right right right here seems to be where they can divide it right right here seems to be where they can divide it it looks like if they get two and a half million more meters
00:16:20.500
it looks like they will probably start moving in force which is why i think the veterans wanted to form a line here to prevent a bottleneck from happening
00:16:48.900
so i see cops with loaded tear gangster weapons riot control we'll get try and get close hopefully you don't get tackled here
00:16:59.060
but tear gas canisters looks like locked and loaded
00:17:18.580
hey do you need a hug okay do you need a hug okay so don't stay away from me
00:17:23.860
the irony is stick in the air as the media is is bad that people are filming them
00:17:35.060
government employees with cameras government employees with cameras it's all the mainstream media is
00:17:43.620
the propaganda arm of the state remember the emergencies act was invoked not from data collected
00:17:48.420
by the rcmp not from ccss not from the military it was a cbc news article funded by the government
00:17:55.140
used by the government to justify emergency powers used on the people this is a
00:18:28.180
Freedom! Freedom! Freedom! Freedom! Freedom! Freedom! So again the horses are waiting, the tear gas canisters are loaded
00:18:41.520
but the men and women here are still holding the line, chanting Freedom, singing the national anthem on occasion
00:18:49.600
I can only imagine how the CTV and Global and CBC will be cutting and editing this
00:19:02.140
on tonight's propaganda update from the Supreme Leader.
00:19:06.800
This is why there's people here, citizens, live streaming it,
00:19:14.000
Step by step, I will be here until the phone runs out of batteries.
00:19:25.220
He is a political prisoner, former refugee from Iran.
00:19:30.700
Yes. The actual act says Salman has a right to be here.
00:19:36.420
But because he's a refugee, it doesn't apply to him.
00:19:49.600
Yeah, if I can, if I can assess it, this is the wedge point here.
00:19:56.800
The protesters should probably have followed the veterans' advice
00:19:59.780
and tactically retreat to the bridge where they can't be boxed in.
00:20:04.520
Here. If you get split at this road here, they'll arrest you here.
00:20:10.580
And then they can push all the way up to Wellington.
00:20:13.360
You're going to need to form a strong line in a choke point,
00:20:18.400
Because once they get there, they need two and a half more meters,
00:20:32.380
It's just my opinion that over there on this side, that will be lost,
00:20:36.100
and these people will get boxed in here and there.
00:20:38.680
This seems to be where the last stand will happen.
00:20:47.980
The people are holding there, so the truckers hold this part of Wellington down there.
00:21:03.620
And the last line resistance, line two, will be here on the bridge.
00:21:08.380
If the cops take two more meters, expect things to get highly kinetic quickly.
00:21:26.840
It is a wait until the next push from the cops.
00:21:32.260
This is where they are trying to push up into Wellington.
