Canadian authorities are warning the so-called Freedom Convoy truckers protesting Canada’s COVID-19 mandates that not only could they be arrested for participating in the peaceful demonstration but also their pets could be confiscated.
“Attention animal owners at demonstration,” the official Twitter account of Ottawa’s by-law and regulatory services tweeted Thursday. “If you are unable to care for your animal as a result of enforcement actions, your animal will [be] placed into protective care for eight days, at your cost. After eight days, if arrangements are not made, your animal will be considered relinquished.”
The city of Ottawa, the site of the protest, added that the “Animal Care and Control By-law provides for temporary ‘protective care’ of animals by the city in the event that the owner is not available, under circumstances including eviction, incarceration, or fire or medical emergency.”
The tweets were flagged by the Counter Signal news site and Canadian journalist Keean Bexte.
The city’s protective care “authority is applicable citywide and intended to ensure the animals’ safety and well-being, including the provision of basic needs, while their owner is unavailable to do so,” said Jennifer Therkelsen, acting director of by-law and regulatory services for the city of Ottawa.Relinquishment of a pet generally means animal shelters assume ownership of the pet, which will then wait to be adopted by a new owner. However, if the animal isn’t adopted quickly, euthanasia may become a realistic possibility, according to Adopt-a-Pet.com, which bills itself as “North America’s largest non-profit pet-adoption web service.”

Trudeaus pets have a bad disposition Absolutely sickening. It looks like the elderly lady ran over by useful idiots on horses in Ottawa was handicapped with a walker. Ottawa police are pure scum. The other person intentionally trampled was younger.
So, will they force the dogs to dig their own mass graves, then line them up and shoot them in the back of their heads? Trudeau seems to follow every other example the Nazis provided him.
Trudeau needs to Go
