I can't help but wonder how different all this would play out if it was BLM or indigenous persons protesting like this.
Must be sweet being a white middle aged male eh?
I feel badly for the people who work at the Rideau center who are now missing days of work.. not that they probably want to be there and deal with it mind you. My friend works at the Nordstrom and on Saturday she said she was very much over it by 2pm when I saw her.
City could have made a mint by sending bylaw out and actually having the police back them up instead of sitting in their cars also blocking traffic.

My in-laws live at 700 Sussex. They had to flee two days ago and came to stay with us. Conditions were unbearable. A good portion of the other residents left as well.
