CTV News is Canada's most-watched news organization both locally and nationally, and has a network of national, international, and local news operations.
Meanwhile journalists are being arrested for asking Freeland legitimate questions.
Apparently giving Tim Horton's coffee to Canadians is news worthy.
WTF 😱
Yeah, I saw David Menzies being arrested and it was pathetic!
Where?
@@Potsnu "canadians " okay bud 😂
Never seen anything more biased than this news shame on the system.
Beautiful double standard
What "kind" of bias are you talking about?
biased means you disagree with them??
More shameful than that CTV™ can't even publish titles with proper grammar? In this day and age of tech, AI, gammarly, etc...? Peak diversity hiring 🙄

This wouldnt even be a story and issue if the truckers were treated the same way.
Someone payed their wages for the 2 months thats enough
LOL....the "truckers" were allowed to have a street party for THREE WEEKS !!!
In any other national capital I can think of like Paris, London or Washington the Ottawa thugs would have faced tear gas, rubber bullets and water cannons after 24 hours. We are just too nice in Canada!
Dude… the cops literally trampled the truckers. If the police in Canada are helping your protests cause in 2024 you’re probably on the wrong side. LONG LIVE ISREAL
Next time just say the truck drivers are Jewish
I'd agree if it was the same police force
Where was the coffee for the truckers convoy? Ooh wait, the truckers weren't the Trudeau voters.
You mean the guys who attacked homeless shelter workers and blocked ambulances?
@@squiglees From what I saw the truckers were helping the homeless, and the shelter workers. Something the government should have been doing but were, and still are, ignoring. As for blocking ambulances...the truckers made sure there was always lanes open for emergency vehicles. If you have proof otherwise please share it with everyone. Or are you just a typical provider of misinformation? My guess is the latter.
How is stealing food from the homeless helping them? @@Yooper2024

@Hawk that because they are actual canadians in Canada so that 100% considered terrorism under this government
HEY!!!!! Where is the coffee 4 the Convoy Protestors???????
Not sure, but it’s been a few years so it’s definitely gone cold. 😅
Lol who said they couldn't get coffee too? Depends I think someone else bought it and police handed it, meaning no one bought coffee for truckers 😂😂😂
Fire this Chief!
Promote the Chief
If he didn’t buckle under to the Zi@nist lobby he probably WOULD have been fired.
Is this the police’s new tactic? Wasn’t long ago the video of the guy threatening to “bury” a cop was circulating.
Hey, I’m going to let you in on a little secret.
Not everybody is the same person.
I KNOW, CRAZY RIGHT?!
Well said...................@@jin6000
Maybe giving them coffee will stop them from rioting? lol
FREE PALESTINE!
No, he was threatening to bury Banerjeet, the guy behind the cops making death threats. That's why the cops let both statements go.
This is absurd, officers didn't buy the coffee for them. They just PASSED it on to the protestors from a private citizen who wanted to give it to them, but wasn't allowed to go past the cordon (would have had to spend a fair bit of time going all the way around). He or she simply asked the officer if he would just pass it to the protestors on their behalf. It was just an officer doing a simple act of kindness - he wasn't endorsing them one way or another, he didn't pay for it out of his own pocket, etc. It should be a non story.
..... convoy
So you would support the officers delivering the fuel to the truckers in Ottawa. Just an act of kindness.
Or an act of kindness letting you go after they caught you on speeding...😀@@arethereanyuniquehandles
@@arethereanyuniquehandles
No, but coffee, yes.
The protestors are blocking the entrance to a predominantly Jewish neighborhood..get informed before revealing your ignorance to all.
Didn't know the emergencies act required police to provide coffee. Guess I learned something new
They didn't provide coffee.
@@obtuse1291 yes they did lol
Don’t argue with hate monger bots, they’ll keep saying bad things about police

The same police who called truckers with bouncy castles and BBQ's terrorists, now serve coffee to actual terrorists. Absolute clown world.
Are they actual terrorists though?😮
@@LLchuckL The definition of terrorism is "The use of violence, or the threat of violence to force a politico-social change." There has been violence. So yes, They are.
Who was violent?

@@nuzhatahmad1240 About what exactly professor? :P
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant "We are fighting against animals". I guess even in Canada, a police chief shares the same sentiments.
Oof! The part that everyone missed is that is their worldview of EVERYONE who's not in their little ethnic circle, not just Palestinians.
No, it’s the pro Hamas animals.. sounds like you’re one of those that cheered the atrocities of October 7.@@user-wg2vw3mz1v
You think the world will easily forget what these islamo-fascist animals have done and continue to do? Never in a million years.
Agree
Kinda true.
What an embarrassment...
The apology or the gesture? I have protested along side Palestinians. More than 8000 kids have been killed by the IDF since Hamas took the hostages. Also, Hamas has no vehicles, navy or air force, they pretty much have to take hostages in this case. You literally can't fight against the IDF with all their funding.
You even know the situation about what happened?
That gesture could keep the protesters at ease and helps with peaceful protests.
Anybody that starts a statement with “let me be clear” is full of shyt. This is Trudeau and Freeland’s go-to opening.
MEEESTER SPEEEAKER! Let me be clear... *goes on to say nothing clearly whilst meandering around the topic*

The truckers didn't have the millions to give politicians as the Israeli lobby has.
There is nothing really wrong with this. IF police treat all demonstrators in the same way. De escalating of situations is what should be done. Trampling disabled persons under police horse's is definately not the way for any police agency to act.
There’s NOT demonstrating when they’re intentionally blocking roadways !!
@@bradsmith9189 so both protests are bad?
It was an act of being sympathetic and being supportive! There was no excuse! Police officers don't bring coffee to protesters who create commotion and block the streets!
Not ALL demonstrators have many citizens supporting them and actually buying coffee for them too! The police simply passed on the coffee.

Lol no. They should be promoted and their chief should step down. Outing himself as a genocide supporter? He can get lost.

What’s news is the Toronto police supporting protesters actively breaking laws instead of removing them

You're completely missing the point.
depends on your cause. this helps them to not look racist.
I feel sorry for you
Give me a break!

Shut up, whiner. Canada is a great country.
Just another schill state to the USA and Israel.

Better than being trampled, eh? Despicable.
RIGHT? ... this will start an emergency tim Hortons act
If only there was more kindness in this world, just imagine.
keep dreaming Lmfao
This is not kindness. This is pure complicity to the pro Hamas supporters. No wonder this world is the way it is. Not sure when western countries will wake up to the reality of this religion and their ideology to create chaos in the world
kindness was not sjhown to those teens at the concert, they were massacred
Tell that to the Palestinians!
Was there kindness on Oct. 7?
Why is it bad to offer a bit of compassion?
Because there was zero compassion towards a lawful peaceful protest in Ottawa.
They are with Hamas. Hamas shows compassion on October 7th???
Where was the compassion for the protesters in Ottawa?
Because Bro0o0o ItS KhAMaaaAAaaAZZzzZ
When they start there stuff off I hope your saying the same thing so you can have a boot stuffed up where the sun don't shine.
Actions speak louder than words Mr. Toronto Chief of Police. Remember that!
What a world?! This is ridiculous! Even if a police officer gives a coffee to a Palestinian, they have to regret and give an apology for what they did - of in a way is part of serving the community.🤔
They should be neutral, so are we Canadians. Your problems are your problems, we have our own problems to deal with. We can feel sorry for israel or so called palestine that's all
Bias chief
Why should he apologize? He should be proud just like our honourable PM for serving his vote bank. Welcome to Justin's Canada.
This is so stupid - why did they need to issue an apology?! For being human? They restricted anyone else on the bridge so they passed on the coffee from one member to the next.. should they have just thrown it all away instead? Gosh forbid we see some Canadian kindness
You just contradicted yourself: "They restricted anyone else on the bridge"... yes. Bingo. Illegal blocking of a major public thoroughfare. Arrests should have been made and that bridge cleared immediately. Not coffee fetched like a little lackey for his masters.
For being biased and discrimatory
Truckers get trampled Palestinian Hamas sympathizers get coffee. What a joke.
They’re not Hamas , they are pro Peace .
I was a trucker for 30 years. I dont feel trampled and I would love to offer them a box of doughnuts. Speak for yourself please. I just did.
Says the retired trucker with jihadist sympathies.
and CANADIAN truckers got jailed...Canada has fallen
Yeah, but they get free coffee in jail! 😅
If they are "doing what they can", then why can protesters block roads? Its not legal to block roads, even to protest.
Ummm. Nope. Police will block roads even if it isn't legal while dealing with a crime......
Apologize for giving a human being a cup of coffee?? This is ridiculous 😮
For not arresting those who are blocking a roadway and giving coffee instead. This is ridiculous. No one should be held prisoner in their cars for protestors
You’re missing the point completely as any woker does. No roadway should be blocked unless permission granted.
Human being? Are you talking about we should compare Hamas and its supporters to animals?
Did they bring coffee to the truckers protests. NO they brought horses and trampled Canadians.
Being nice to Palestinians or their supporters does not imply anti-Semitism. Why is this connection immediately assumed? Why these accusations are thrown around so loosely? Appalling.
These arabs want the west to burn and we give them coffee lmaoo
@@Motorsportsgeek Nice try racist.
just make sure there is no truckers protesting
Give them a ticket to Gaza if they want to help....
Telling everyone you're a terrible human being without saying you're a terrible human being.
Fired this chief now
Only in 2024 do u have to apologize for being kind
kind, to the same group of pple uttering threats, get out more
U got a be kidding, be kind to homeless ppl not protesters disturbing the peace!!
You don't say? Seriously, this sort of double standard is ridiculous. Our PM can't even decide what side he is on. This is a joke!
At least he wasn't carrying someone's luggage as they illegally crossed a border.
LoL. Such a child. You miss high school don't you. 😅😅😅
Same guy that bashed the heads of other protesters
The police chief should have just explained the situation and backed the officer. Dear police: Don’t expect this guy to have your back. He can’t even explains coffee hand off, what if something actually happens?
Backed the officer … why … they should have stayed out of it .. police ain’t paid to deliver coffee…
@@jafojafo5412 What you got against coffee? Sharing a hot drink is a Canadian thing.
I don’t trust Canadian police
apologies are not accepted. Police encourage unlawful behaviour instead of preventing it. The protesters blocked highway that they are clearly should not. Whoever organized this unlawful protest as well as participants should be punished as per existing law. What is going on in Canada?
Canada is being raped in the ass by every country at this point
Lo if I could have even the slightest sliver of sympathy for you
Only one answer...Turdeau.
Canada is going down the tube with Trudeau!
They need to be deported! They’re definitely not Canadians !
Do not apologize or expect apologies for showing kindness. Kindness shown to both sides of a conflict can build bridges.
Well said, kindness builds peace
They have said what they have to say now. Two months on - they should go back to work and contribute to the Canadian economy.
Genocide is still happening, it took 30 years to stop apartheid in SA. It’s 75 years in Israel so far
Wtf? So the officers did something nice for non violent protesters and they're getting fired on? Anyone protesting for Palestinians safety isn't anti Semitic, let's get that straight.
You know that plenty of supporters are Muslims and hate Israel right? If they really only care about safety they would be protesting Hamas telling them to surrender.
How about showing were the door is get out of Canada go home.
They would love to go home but a certain gen-ocid-al country has stolen their land. Learn some history w ⚓️
What’s wrong with that. Stop being biased Toronto police chief
noooooooooooo, stay neutral that is what you are getting paid for- do not take sides of war across the world. not our problem, not our war
The officer has a heart so what if he gave coffee to stay warm. It's better than pushing and saying awful words. We are taught to be kind it would be a better world if everyone would help do there part. We do have bigger issues then handing coffee out
On a human level I agree and don't care. But obviously there's a bigger picture to this you can't just ignore or nobody would care.
Why exactly is it such a big deal that some cops handed out coffee?
Why do you have an urge to video yourself giving coffee to protestors? Hmmmmm!!!!!!!!
These clowns tried to stop Christmas.. I was pissed
Kindness to another human should NEVER be scrutinized by anyone!!! ❤

What world do you live in ? The Hamas tunnels ? Yes. Then stay there.
The Palestinian resistance did nothing wrong.
I do not accept the Chief's apology. I laud the officer for treating citizens with respect and decency.
They are pro-Hamas, meaning they are pro-terrorists. Not once have they ever demand the release of hostages. SO it is hard to sympathize when they themselves are parroting the narratives of Hamas.
Another one missing the point...
@@martinc.720 The point being that peaceful protest is not a crime, but a right.
You can definitely buy them a drink personally. He is an officer and is on duty, right? What is his duty? Think through before bluffing your holy decency standard.

I am a member of Rotary International. One of the questions we ask, of everything we think say and do is; "will it build goodwill for all". This Police Officer would be a worthy member of a Rotary club for his helpful friendly actions, harming no-one, spreading goodwill, toning down the rhetoric.

Let me guess.. you cheered the atrocities of October 7.
It's weird of the police to do this. But i guess weird is the new normal.
Weird? How?
Not sure what the police did that was wrong. I think you can give someone coffee without it being an endorsement of whatever the recipients are doing. This is a very tense situation in which the violence is not just restricted to the Middle East.
it should be, what the hell is all their protesting here gonna do aboout over there and is has nothing to do with this country
