In a 5-minute long video shared to her social media, Lilly addressed Trudeau and asserted, “Dear Prime Minister Trudeau, I want to speak to you today about your current approach to and treatment of our fellow Canadians who are protesting your federal vaccine mandates.”

“They have asked to meet with you, prime minister, medical experts, top scientists, doctors, nurses, parents, grandparents, intelligent, loving, concerned citizens,” she added, attempting to appeal to his humanity. “Why won’t you sit with them?”

“If you are so convinced of your own reasons for the mandates, sit down and walk the leaders of the group of 2.3 million protesters across the country — who represent many millions more across the nation — and explain it to them and ask them to listen with open hearts and minds, and then reciprocate,” Lilly encouraged Trudeau.

“Listen to what they have to say with a mind open to hearing things that might go against the ideas you are entrenched in,” she continued. “Maybe there are solutions that can bring Canadians together right now that you have not considered.”

The Wasp actress further explained, “You unify people by finding solutions together, not by vilifying those who say there is a better way.”

“What we need right now from our leadership is unification, and that requires being willing to see, recognise and hear from the people sitting out in the cold at your door,” Lilly urged the Canadian Prime Minister.

Even though Lilly is a left-leaning celebrity, her open support of the truckers’ Freedom Convoy drew the ire of the cancel culture mob, who responded to her video by clamouring for the actress to be cancelled and her Marvel character recast.

The Most Fabulous Story Ever Told playwright Paul Rudnick wrote, “A pitch for a new reality show: Evangeline Lilly, Kevin Sorbo, Scott Baio, Susan Sarandon, Kirstie Alley and Jon Voight are left on a remote island without food or water. That’s the whole pitch.”

Mashable India writer @pramitheus called not only for Lilly’s MCU recasting, but also Black Panther actress Letitia Wright, who has received backlash since December of 2020 for her skepticism of COVID-19 vaccines.

“I repeat: Recast. Immediate,” cried the woke Twitter user. “They shoulda recast Letitia Wright. They should recast Evangeline Lilly. Ain’t nothing THAT special about em. There are much more talented (and sane) actors out there who can take up their spot & make the set a safe space.”

Lilly previously found herself the target of outrage after she revealed that she had attended the anti-vaccine mandate rally that took place in Washington, D.C. late in January.

“I believe nobody should ever be forced to inject their body with anything, against their will,” wrote the Marvel actress at the time, taking to Instagram to share a handful of pictures she took at the event.

Lilly also condemned how unvaccinated individuals have been threatened with “violent attack, arrest or detention without trial, loss of employment, homelessness, starvation, loss of education, alienation from loved ones, excommunication from society” just for refusing to get inoculated.

“This is not the way. This is not safe. This is not healthy. This is not love. I understand the world is in fear, but I don’t believe that answering fear with force will fix our problems,” she declared. “I was pro choice before COVID and I am still pro choice today.”
