Ottawa Mayoral candidate Alex Lawson says he delivered toilets to convoy protest site

I think @Wudi@feddit.uk is sharing information on Lawson, not that he agrees with him. Please only down vote if the information is not good nor relavent.

“When the convoy was in town, we heard that people were shitting in the streets and in buckets and pouring them in the streets,” he said. “Instead of doing nothing about it, we brought them toilets because it solved that problem.”

Well the "we heard" is baloney. Had friends in attendance, watched livestream EVERY day of the protest, talked to people who were there - and if there were people crapping in the streets it wasn't the protesters. The protesters were out every day, sweeping the streets, collecting garbage, giving out food, they weren't feral animals. Truckers dont need to shit in the street, there were still restaurants open and most of the protesters were staying in downtown hotels. Even the claim that someone peed on the war memorial was propaganda used to discredit the protesters. No one saw anyone pee on it and there are animals and homeless people downtown so why did the press automatically assume when they saw some pee that a protester did it? More propaganda.
