How strange that this is not seen as a punishable offense? I’m not Canadian, not familiar with sedition laws there, but there are countries where articles like these would put you in jail immediately.
Canada Unity worked hard to scrub it from their servers after the fact, claiming it was being used incorrectly (aka they realized they had published evidence on their website after having whipped up a frenzie about authoritarian rule (and fell silent just a couple years later when the Premier started doing actual charter and rights violations)).
They also did an award ceremony for the on the ground leaders; I guess if you instigate enough fights with homeless people in shelters and cause X billion in economic damage, you gather enough PPoints for a victory lap and some timbits.

Edit: Maybe someone with legal experience can explain it using this as reference: https://www.criminalcodehelp.ca/offences/crimes-against-authority/what-is-sedition/ ?
Wow, I figured we didn’t have laws like that here. A few years ago we had a bunch of honkies drive on down to Ottawa. They had a website with their plans, and they literally said they were going there to overthrow the government. If you want here is a Wikipedia article about them
They got some house arrest
Edit: I have added a Wayback link to the MOU.
Not to worry.

But it’s been archived.
We have a “charter of rights and freedoms” in particular: https://www.justice.gc.ca/eng/csj-sjc/rfc-dlc/ccrf-ccdl/check/art2b.html. So as much as I dislike this kind of stuff they are still allowed to have it.
See the thing is there are tons of these fucks who have badges….
There is a Rage Against the Machine song that comes to mind.
