Just watch me

Canada looks more like a police state than a democracy
eight days after the kidnapping of British Trade
Commissioner James Cross. On Parliament Hill a
reporter confronts Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau:

"What is it with all these men and guns around here?"
By calling in army tanks and men in full gear, Trudeau
boosted national security. But the military's presence
makes some Canadians feel a whole lot less secure.
How far will the prime minister extend law and order?

Just watch him. (1970, October)
