Ottawa's core locked down as police prepare to move on protesters

What you want to claim to be American? Can you find the US on a map? How about Canada?

Of course its Russian spam. Provide the video. Go on get it and provide it. If am lucky.

The video in question is referenced here:
This is one angle of the incident.
The video I'm looking for is probably that same incident from another angle which showed it more clearly.

Always 'Russian spam' or 'Russian disinformation' when some evidence comes along which you lefties don't like. Rather childish, frankly.
 
Overitall:

Yes, she great ended but only the provinces have the power to carry out her threat. She would have to ask the provinces to back up her threat. Some like Ontario, Québec and BC likely would but some like Alberta would almost certainly refuse. The only way the Federal Government could attempt to do this unilaterally is if it somehow could declare licences as invalid documents for international travel. But since the unvaccinated truckers are already prevented from entering or leaving Canada by international agreement with the USA, such a move would be meaningless.

Cheers and be well.

That’s the BLM protests…when he “protested” too…I hope he gave himself a good slap for his blackface escapades lol.
Virtue signaling is politics 101. He had some atoning to do for his blackface scandal. It's like pentence for sins. Use to be a time when you could just purchase forgiveness.
 
How many Canadians carry guns around everywhere?
About as many as believe that it is necessary for their own personal survival.

PS - Most of those Canadians who carry guns around everywhere because they believe that it is necessary for their own personal survival are already engaged in criminal activity.

PPS - Very few of the people mentioned in the first PS engage in shootouts with the police if they are stopped for a traffic violation.

He’s protesting on the street though so I hope someone freezes his bank account.
 
The threat alone was enough to get some truckers to leave. Perhaps the DMP knew it was an empty threat, but was betting on the truckers not knowing it.
 
They are under martial law…

They are not. They are still dealt with under civilian law, and they are tried by civilian courts.

Guess who "blinked" in the "confrontation".

If those "truckers" had REALLY believed in their cause, they would have stayed put and forced the police to haul them (and their trucks) away.

Yeah , it’s martial law.Suspension of civil law by government. Educate yourself before trying to put me right lol.
 
Excellent piece. Victor Davis Hanson is a smart man. I always pause what I'm doing to hear his take when he's interviewed.

It happens. But, as I previously stated -- I don't think we've heard the last from them.
 
It's sort of like "There are consequences for not acting like a civilized person who wants to live in a civilized society.".
"Wanting freedom without responsibility or consequences is called adolescence"........not mine picked it up on social media.

Quite likely not.

But, then again, we also haven't heard the last from "The Marxist-Leninist Party of Canada", "The Rhinoceros Party", "The Social Credit Party" and a whole slew of other groups (including "Holocaust Deniers" and people who claim that they believe that Mr. Trump was actually the winner of the 2020 American Presidential election).
 
Touche.
 
Must say I get a real kick out of the Trudeau bashing around here. Appears a lot of people think Canadians need to be convinced of what a jerk and lousy leader he is.......they are clueless.
 
The only emergency in Canada this morning is that Trudeau is still Prime Minister.
True but even if he wasn't, the majority of their population and their "accepted" ideology would remain the same. I think Canada is well on their way down a path they'll just keep marching down.

There has been no suspension of civil law.

Please attempt to be more honest.
 
Better not give Mr. Liberal Prime Minister anymore bright ideas...
I've been hearing he did it with the help of Biden. If that's true then it gives a glimpse into what he has planned for the American convoy that's forming up. The Capital Beltway is going to look interesting.

As much as I'd not like to see that, it does seem the inevitable path with no off ramps, sad to say.

Yes, law and order and the belief in the rule of law while putting safeguards in place to ensure people's civil rights are not violated.
