The real failure is Doug Ford who allowed the protest to go wild. Trudeau wanted a swift resolution and he got it. It may be unconstitutional but Trudeau didn't want another October crisis.

Tell that to Doug Ford, the OPP, the Ottawa police who should have done something for 3 weeks. They did nothing and Trudeau had to use federal powers to deal with a provincial and Municipal problem.
