In Ottawa, the nation\u2019s capital, thousands of protesters have convened in the downtown core to inconvenience the political elite, but the scale of the assembly has resulted in no violence and minimal arrests for crimes like \u201cmischief.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Protesters are demanding an end to business lockdowns, vaccine mandates, sanitary mask mandates, and all other coronavirus-related government restrictions. Trudeau has responded to those demands by repeatedly accusing the protesters of being Nazis and supporters of the 19th-century American Confederate movement.<\/p>\n<p>Trudeau did not answer Lantsman\u2019s ultimate question, \u201cWhen did the prime minister lose his way?\u201d Instead, he again accused Conservative Party members who have asked his government for a timeline to do away with the coronavirus mandates of supporting Nazis and Confederates.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cConservative Party members can stand with people who wave swastikas, they can stand with people who wave the Confederate flag,\u201d Trudeau said. \u201cWe will choose to stand with Canadians who deserve to be able to get to their jobs and be able to get their lives back. These illegal protests need to stop, and they will.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lawmakers nearly drowned out Trudeau\u2019s statement with jeers, a common sound during his remarks in Parliament in the past two weeks. Anthony Rota, the speaker of the House of Commons, responded with a scolding clearly directed at the prime minister. Like Trudeau, Rota is a member of the Liberal Party.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would like to remind members, including the right honorable prime minister, to use words that are not inflammatory in the House \u2013 and that\u2019s for both sides,\u201d Rota said, one of several similar requests after multiple outbursts of jeers and heckling on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>Lantsman responded by declaring Trudeau\u2019s statements \u201cunbecoming of a prime minister\u201d and asserting that Trudeau had \u201clost control of the situation \u2026 lost control of his country \u2026 and lost control of his leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Later during the Parliamentary session, Lantsman issued a point of order to request a formal apology from Trudeau.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B3\" class=\"a8d adSo\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cI am a strong Jewish woman and a member of this House and a descendant of Holocaust survivors, and it\u2019s never been singled out, and I\u2019ve never been made to feel less,\u201d Lantsman said, \u201cexcept for today when the prime minister accused me of standing with swastikas. I think he owes me an apology, I\u2019d like an apology, and I think he owes an apology to all members of this House.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">I think the Prime Minister should think long and hard about his own history before singling out a Jewish Member of Parliament and falsely accusing me of standing with a Swastika.

The claim appears to be a reference to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.timesofisrael.com\/swastikas-other-hate-symbols-displayed-at-canadian-protest-against-covid-mandates\/\">photos<\/a> of a protester waving a Nazi flag alongside a flag reading \u201cF [maple leaf] ck Trudeau\u201d and a Canadian flag, and another photo of a man holding a Confederate flag with a truck on it, taken in late January. The symbols have not made any other significant appearance at the many iterations of the \u201cFreedom Convoy\u201d protests nationwide and many protesters seeking an end to coronavirus restrictions have repudiated them. Despite this, Trudeau has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2022\/02\/08\/canada-pm-justin-trudeau-belittles-freedom-convoy-a-few-people-shouting-and-waving-swastikas\/\">referred<\/a> to the entirety of the movement as \u201ca few people shouting and waving swastikas\u201d during previous Parliament sessions and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2022\/02\/14\/justin-trudeau-tanks-in-the-polls-with-both-supporters-and-opponents-of-freedom-convoy\/\">described<\/a> protesters as \u201ctinfoil hat\u201d wearers.<\/p>\n<p>Trudeau greatly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/europe\/2022\/02\/14\/justin-trudeau-grabs-powers-under-never-before-used-emergencies-act-to-stomp-out-trucker-protests\/\">inflamed<\/a> national tensions this week by invoking the Emergencies Act \u2014 a law passed in 1988 that had never been used before \u2014 to greatly expand federal power to shut down protests. The move prompted alarm, anger, and confusion, particularly as Trudeau has not attempted to address the protests\u2019 concerns in any way or make any other move prior to invoking the Act. Trudeau\u2019s government has also&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2022\/02\/16\/canadas-justice-minister-trump-supporters-oughta-be-worried-bank-accounts-will-be-frozen\/\">threatened<\/a> to bar individuals believed to be supportive of the Freedom Convoy\u2019s demands from using any banking system.<\/p>\n<p>The premiers of several provinces have since <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2022\/02\/15\/unhelpful-unnecessary-canadas-provinces-reject-trudeaus-emergency-powers\/\">rejected<\/a> Trudeau\u2019s measure and urged the federal government to stay out of their jurisdictions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think at this point, for the federal government to reach in over top of us, without offering anything in particular, would frankly be unhelpful,\u201d Alberta Premier Jason Kenney said this week. \u201cI think we need to find ways to effectively enforce without escalating the situation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think that at this moment, it would not help the social climate. There\u2019s a lot of pressure right now, and I think we have to be careful.
