There's a difference between spray painting on a church and targeting the church/beliefs, and spray painting on a church which is openly hosting people who advocate for the anti-democratic removal of the government. The message is for the the people going there and that the church is hosting them, not the church/belief. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CitizenVectron Posted June 28, 2022 Author Share Posted June 28, 2022 Convoy is rolling back into Ottawa this weekend for Canada Day. This time their stated aim is to remove Trudeau from power, as they say he stole the 2021 election. Also, one of the organizers was arrested today in Alberta, likely because she violated her bail conditions re: insurrection and all that.

CitizenVectron Posted July 1, 2022 Author Share Posted July 1, 2022 Shortly after walking and talking with Pierre Poilievre, James Topp and his group made their way to the War Memorial where they promptly got into a brawl with police. Three people were arrested and one police officer was wounded. All these fuckers should be in jail for the weekend. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silentbob Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 My friend is heading Ottawa way today or tomorrow with his girlfriend to see her family. I told him to let me know how the traffic is and if he runs into any of these asshats on his journey. Hopefully he takes pics and I really hope these fuckers get what ever punishment comes their way. It is pretty much a weaker attempt of an insurrection with them wanting to oust JT, and he’s not even in the fucking country. No offence to my American friends, but I hate seeing us/people slowly sliding into American like political discord. Sure we’ve had it before, but they use to go quiet shortly afterwards. With the internet around, it just reminds me of a determined camper who is constantly blowing on the embers of a campfire, and just waiting for flames too erupt.

He was my premier for a decade and was the "moderate" face that allowed the conservative party (Saskatchewan Party) to reclaim power. The last time they held power was under the conservative brand in the 80s, after which a bunch of cabinet members went to prison for illegal stuff. Now they've been back in power for like 14 years and have run the province into the ground though decreased funding per capita for education, health, etc. Making things more privatized, etc. They wasted away our boom years through cutting taxes, etc, and we have nothing to show for it. In Saskatchewan corporations can also make unlimited political donations, so the Sask Party is bought and paid for by oil companies in Alberta (out of province donations also allowed). It makes it impossible for the NDP (only viable opposition) to compete on even footing. Honestly, I expect the Sask Party will stay in power for 10+ more years, easily. Saskatchewan educates its youth and then they move away to other parts of Canada (consistent trend since 1930s), leaving the province as a conservative stronghold.

CitizenVectron Posted February 18, 2023 Author Share Posted February 18, 2023 UPDATE: Commission to investigate invocation of Emergencies Act (part of the automatic oversight of invoking it) determines that the use of emergency powers was warranted in removing convoy from Ottawa and border sites. Federal government met the threshold to invoke Emergencies Act: Rouleau | CBC News WWW.CBC.CA Commissioner Paul Rouleau says the federal government met the "very high" threshold needed to invoke the Emergencies Act last winter, citing "a failure in policing and federalism." No surprise, there. Also lays a huge amount of blame on the police agencies involved, as well as the government of Ontario (Doug Ford) for letting the situation spiral out of control until the federal government had to step in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very sad. Canadian flag on their truck or car is a red flag for me. Brings up memories of the 9/11 / terrorist bullshit the right pulled in the US. -edit- To clarify on the US bit, I'm talking about hyper nationalism and if you're not giving it 1000% you're un-american and a terrorist sympathizer.

The big thing right now is that some city planners were promoting the idea of "15 minute cities," which just means that good planning makes it so that you can walk anywhere in 15 min to get what you need (job, food, etc). But Canadian conservatives are saying this is a global plot meant to enslave people by taking away their freedom to travel and to eventually ban private cars. It's wild stuff.
