The October Crisis refers to a chain of events that took place in Quebec in the fall of 1970. The crisis was the culmination of a long series of terrorist attacks perpetrated by the Front de libération du Québec (FLQ), a militant Quebec independence movement, between 1963 and 1970. On 5 October 1970, the FLQ kidnapped British trade commissioner James Cross in Montreal. Within the next two weeks, FLQ members also kidnapped and killed Quebec Minister of Immigration and Minister of Labour Pierre Laporte. Quebec premier Robert Bourassa and Montreal mayor Jean Drapeau called for federal help to deal with the crisis. In response, Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau deployed the Armed Forces and invoked the War Measures Act — the only time it has been applied during peacetime in Canadian history.
Yo, these two things don't compare. Truckers blocking roads, and honking their horns is nowhere near murder, or even assault. Old Trudeau was less of a tyrant. The fucker is probably ashamed of his son for being such a terrible imbecile.
Yes but they are saying the truckers are violent and we know that is the furthest thing from the truth. They'll use the 1970 incident as a reference point and claim that Trudeau is following in his "fathers' footsteps to keep Canadians safe.
The more research we do, the better we are to make the arguments against Trudeau.

That was only Provincial though [I think] this is the first time it has been enacted Federally...and all against peaceful Canadian citizens.
Yup Justins step dad Pierre Trudeau. But Justins father was fidel castro so I guess the family that dictates together stays together.

The FLQ Crisis. If I remember correctly they were domestic terrorists from Quebec, and they kidnapped (and killed?) an MP.
At least there was violence in that situation.
