Former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that governmental restrictions on human rights in Canada highlight the importance of protecting constitutional rights in America on the Wednesday edition of the Breitbart News Daily podcast with host Alex Marlow.
Pompeo described Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s invocation of the Emergencies Act as “shocking” and “unconscionable.”
Pompeo recalled that the Freedom Convoy arose in opposition to federally imposed vaccine mandates on truckers. Such mandates “[require] people sitting in a cab of a truck who drive thousands of miles [to be] vaccinated,” he noted. “It’s not scientific. It’s deeply political.”
The former secretary of state contrasted the U.S. Constitution with the Constitution Canada and the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
