#6 The pols see this as a threat to their authority. It wouldn't even be happening if they hadn't gambl3d their "authority" on the now completely busted COVIDian vaxx mandates and other dumb measures. They are doing this to themselves and are too dumb to realize when to cut their losses.

#7 I know there is a real slide scale going on for stupid moves, but this shit, the Brandon Handlers, they just put out there that if there were to be something similar in the US, and now especially Canada, any opposition, problems, etc. ties straight to The White House.

#8 From Bari Weiss’s Substack:

What the Truckers Want
I’ve spoken to 100 of the protestors gathered in the Canadian capital. What's happening is far bigger than the vaccine mandates.

#9 I don't know much about the Canadian parliament but if, as I suspect, it is modeled after the UK parliament, Trudeau could end up facing a vote of no confidence. Wouldn't that frost his balls?

Trudeau could end up facing a vote of no confidence.

He's survived them before. I have found no mention or discussion of this actually succeeding in the present situation.

#11 This is going the way of our civil rights issues from the 60's. The governments are doubling down on their control over blue collar types trying to just get their voices heard over this medical tyranny. The governments hard line leaves the people backed into an ugly corner. No talks, no negotiations, just threats and violent actions by the government. If the government does not back down and have talks this will all end in violence, and real violence will ensue. They took the truckers fuel, gave it back under court order, but only after filling the cans with water. They are pulling the truckers passports, confiscating their funding, arresting them, beating them. Now Canada is in a state of emergency, the military refused to help the police today. The next step is violence. It seems the Canadian government is now willing to use it. When they do they will shut the communications down, a bad plan as it will get out anyway. The world will be as shocked as they were over the violence from Selma. Then we will have change. I am proud of the Canadians doing this, the liberty bell is ringing. Oh Canada...

Sounds like a violent, provocative act.
Do they want violence?

Forget the dull places you've come from
Where life was so numbingly humdrum!
Live, free of the presence
Of Trumpkin scum peasants!

#14 ^ An actual place, btw, though why I say so I'm not sure, since most of you will've experienced the Mutiny and all that at first hand or at least gotten the skinny in emails from friends.
