So you still maintain non peaceful is anything disruptive?
Was the NSW rail "strike" non peaceful because it was extremely disruptive?
I'm guessing a large percentage of the million or so people who use the rail on there daily commute wouldn't have found the commute yesterday peaceful.

The actual protest or the breaking up of a protest?

his issue is with the protest - he thinks anything that disrupts something isnt peaceful
he is the only person on the planet who would not consider Gandhi a peaceful protestor

I don't see why Trudeau is the issue here.
A disproportionately small number of protestors were causing all sorts of disruption and had done so for weeks.
Something had to be done.

Trucker Protests in Canada: What You Need to Know
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has taken the rare step of declaring a national public order emergency to end what has become an antigovernment protest.
Maybe conservatives should support carbon taxes and then we dont have to get rubbish emission regulatory policies such as this.
but oh no conservatives wanted to protest against free market solutions giving the lefties exactly what they wanted. The justification to regulate.

Canada has a carbon tax
The Canadian Parliament welcomed Volodymyr Zelenskyy to address it late last week, giving him a dozen standing ovations.
However, the talking point came immediately after the address, when the Speaker recognised and celebrated a 98 year old Canadian-Ukrainian "hero" in the chamber, who "fought the Russians for Ukrainian independence during the Second World War".
Viewers with a modicum of understanding of the history of World War II might have stopped and thought for a moment that the Russians were in the Allies during the War, but the thought seemingly didn't cross the mind of Canada's elected officials (or Zelenskyy), who gave a Nazi who fought the Soviets with the SS a standing ovation.
Conservative leader Pierre Poilevre has attempted to score political points on Trudeau on this, as though it doesn't take a knowledge of the most basic of history to know who fought the Russians in World War II.
Anyway, it probably is a perfect example of the absolute emptiness of the current state of Canaidna politics, as well as the boneheaded jingoism of a lot of the anti-Russian dialogue of today.

Gawn
Much like Biden, the longer he clung on despite it obviously being over, the more damage was being done to his party's chances of winning the next election, but he did it anyway. And much like Biden, I'm sure after they lose the election he'll claim that he would've been able to win it despite every piece of evidence to the contrary.
Carney looks like a good replacement for the Liberals but they have a lot of ground to make up.
Canadians can now rejoice, Trudeau is a perfect example of going too far to the left and he's got out of "Dodge" before they threw him out. The King of WOKE is no more. In the UK Keir Starmer has almost completely stuffed the place and he has only been in the job 6 months! Already it's obvious he doesn't know what he's doing. Now let's get rid of ALBO!

Friendly reminder that Trudeau won three elections and is retiring undefeated.
He is a zionist centrist, not a woke leftist. He supports a far right apartheid regime.
The same applies to both Starmer and Albo.
Out of legitimate curiosity, what's your idea of a centrist?
Oh no, he promoted a brown person! IT'S WOKE! IT'S WOKE! IT'S WOKE!
Anyway, like the US and UK, Canada is doomed to continually exchange one neoliberal party for another until they move away from the undemocratic first past the post system. If I lived there, I'd ignore party politics and campaign for voting reform. Then there'd be some real consequences for the major parties both being bad at governance.
