Ironically, this covers the genuine and typical sort of reasons for the emergency act being invoked - threats of invasion, attacks on the sovereignty of canada and so on. Rather than say, protests being made by people the prime minister doesn't like.
By the way, if you can get as close to a plane as the people in the video clip are shown, its pretty trivial to destroy them even with hand tools that many cars in canada are likely to have. An icepick of any quality of steel will go right through the aluminum skin of an aircraft with ease with any adult level of force behind it, for example. And it wouldn't take much to damage engines, control surfaces and so on and make the plane not fit for flying. The materials used for planes are chosen for lightness, not strength.
When there is no remaining ambiguity as to whether assets like this are the property of an actual occupying enemy force, expect things to heat up.

And, to be clear, why should the citizenry care about destroying property of an invader, much less an entirely separate government than their own?
It's not the Canadian government. It's not the American government.
Who cares at this point?
I like the way you think. Logic and good plans.
