I have been dismayed at the things that have taken place in the US over the last year regarding the control within local, state, and federal governments, using the virus as their cover. I shouldn’t be surprised, nor should I be dismayed, because that is how government works. Then I saw what the great folks in Canada are going through. The ones who are always laid back and polite, have stood up and said enough is enough. Their stand has resonated throughout the world - Thank you Canada for showing us what it means to stand up to government and to make a declaration; “were not going to take it anymore”

A few quotes that I have saved:

For the good of all the people, is code for government control.
The rights you give up today, are the rights your children will never know.
If you give up your right don’t expect to get them back. -RP
If you allow government to dictate your lifestyle – they will.
The slow erosion of your rights will eventually become a landslide, and that which remains is barren.
Government is best, which governs least.

Definitions
Tyranny is defined as “oppressive power exerted by a government; a government in which absolute power is vested in a single ruler.”
Liberty is defined as “the power to do as one pleases; freedom from physical restraint; freedom from arbitrary control; the power of choice.
Draconian is defined as “excessively harsh and severe” about laws or their application. Rules that are too restrictive or just plain unfair, are called Draconian.

For some reason Trudeau reminds me of "Nicolae Carpathia" from the Left Behind movie..... from a million years ago....maybe not quite a million.

With today’s government overreach, I would never divulge anything on a public forum.
So, as far as your question is concerned. I will sit behind my macho computer, in my jockeys.

He is expressing his thanks to Canada -- the ordinary Canadians who have stood up to tyranny. 'Thank you Canada for showing us what it means to stand up to government and to make a declaration; “were not going to take it anymore”. Since I live in Canada, I know exactly what he is talking about. And I have also done what was necessary.

The very least you could have done is thank him for bringing this to you attention. So when is "king Arthur" going to gather his knights and go to battle? What have you done about government overreach and tyranny?
