>there is no violence, and no obvious danger

While there is no outright violence, there is torture to local residents, there was attempted arson, there is continued intimidation and harassment of those wearing masks, there is intimidation of visible minorities, there are attacks on businesses....

Is that enough to convince you that the situation is out of hand and than stricter action is needed?

The protestors haven't complied with not honking.

Please, please be careful with how you frame this. There was severe inaction and dangerous incompetence displayed by Ottawa police but please don't spin this as the federal government overstepping.

Edit - within seconds of posting, this is downvoted. Truly a shameful display by the folks here.
