    What exactly are you even saying here?

    I’m saying that, as the numerous articles I linked earlier explain, Indigenous people in Canada suffer incredible amounts of abuse and political repression. The fact that you continue to deny this clearly shows that you’re not interested in comparing actual freedoms people have in Canada or whether the laws are applied equally.

    Your claim is that Western countries like USA and Canada bestow less freedom to their populations and are more authoritarian than Russia and Belarus.

    No, that’s just the straw man you keep using. What I said was that western regimes are themselves often culpable of the same crimes they accuse their designated enemies of. I’ve even linked an entire book documenting such repressions in US in another comment in the same thread.

    Protesters in Canada are only removed from the situation by the police when they do things like physically block people or projects or disrupt infrastructure.

    Oh you mean when a protest is an actual protest as opposed to a parade.

    You know perfectly well that that kind of political activity is not tolerated in virtually any society, least of all Russia and Belarus.

    Another straw man.
