You’re arguing that the deprivations suffered by the victims of one civil disturbance are not lessened in any way by the deprivations of a different disturbance.

That BLM, the Night of Broken Glass, and Selma do not make the lives of those affected by the “truckers” any better.

Those events create neither a defense nor condemnation of the “truckers.”

This is true, certainly.

But it does allow third parties (most people on this forum) to create a figure out how bad the situation is.

Likewise, it allows Canadians to assess the actions of their leaders decided if they are appropriate.
