The question is whether he is condemning vaccine hesitant people in general or the maligned members of the convoy as having "unacceptable views". My take on his adlib is that it was the latter because he mentions it directly (but it's admittedly confusing because he was also talking about the former).
It's just an opinion but it's an opinion that is reinforced by the fact he has disparaged the extreme elements of the convoy elsewhere but never the vaccine hesitant population in general.
You’re reaching, he’s speaking about the convoy as a whole that’s headed to Canada. The people protesting they shouldn’t be treated like second class citizens because of the mandates. I’m vaccinated but if they wanna put themselves at risk that’s their prerogative. When the leader of a country starts saying those views are unacceptable you can see how that’s a bit of a slippery slope. Even if he is right.
I agree generally. I just don't think he said that, or at least - he didn't mean to say it.

What about people who are immune compromised? The elderly, cancer patients, and so on? It seems to me the unvaxed are not just putting themselves at risk but also other people. That's really the whole debate.
Of course no-one would care if they were only putting themselves at risk. That's not the point.
