@@Divine1Right I have no proof, but I think "the most" did not. The most did not do anything but say silent or parrot what was the "officially approved opinion". That's not support, that's demoralization and the loss of individualism and individualistic freedom. It might seem like there's no difference, but I think there's a huge difference. What Trudeau and his kind represent, is radicalism backed by fringe radicals in order to control the narrative, thus control the silent gray masses. Thinking it's "the most" will only demoralize you and people whose opinions differ from the "narrative", while failing to take into account that most people are, in the end of the day, quite sane and "normal" (for the lack of a better word). One might feel they're in the minority, but that's only because the influence of the few has captured most of all everything in the culture front. While it's not good, it also doesn't represent the average views of the average citizen, even though that's what it's trying to tell to us.

Ontario premier says Ottawa 'under siege,' declares state of emergency. Premier Doug Ford is declaring a state of emergency in Ontario, which he says will give authorities more tools to help stop the "illegal occupation of Ottawa." "I call it a siege because that is what it is. It's an illegal occupation." Ford said he's instituting stiffer penalties to protect infrastructure ranging from international border crossings and 400-series highways to municipal and provincial roadways and pedestrian walkways. Non-compliance will now be punishable by fines of up to $100,000 and up to a year in jail, Ford said. Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson pleaded with the Ontario government for help to deal with the ‘lawlessness’ caused by the protest convoy, but grew frustrated with the lack of response. Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson says the city did not have the police resources it needed to handle last winter's anti-COVID-19 restriction protests - and it wanted swifter help from other levels of government. "We needed help," he told the commission Tuesday. "We lost control in the red zone." Watson,said he began pressing the federal government for more police resources after the first weekend of the Freedom Convoy protest. Peter Sloly, the chief of Ottawa police at the time, was looking for an additional 1,800 bodies to help police the crowds: 1,000 regular officers, 600 public order officers, 100 investigative officers, 100 civilian.

We’ve been building to this point for generations where enough of our creature comforts are supplied with little to no effort on the part of the individual that we’re becoming remarkably accepting and even inviting of overreaching authority, so long as our safety is secure. What I’m seeing in Canada, living in British Columbia, is that the vast majority of people do not and will not object to authority if the gravy train keeps rolling. They just don’t want their peaceful pattern to end. Some, however, will speak up. They will put their neck on the line. They will object. They won’t comply. Those people are few and far between. However, with the internet, along with its myriad toxic issues, these people are connecting. The trucker convoy would not have happened on the scale that it did without the internet. I watched it grow from day one until ultimately thousands and thousands of Canadians were outside cheering the convoy on along its checkpoints. Without the internet, a movement like that would have been tar and feathered into oblivion by the mainstream media sources and newspapers. All of the coverage would have been heavily selective and as negative as possible to cast it in the worst possible light. We must not let them come for the internet. It is our last hope for humanity to network organically and resist the tidal wave of tyranny that is accumulating momentum and power.

[@jimlambrick4642]

Well said. Also in BC. The real scary part in Canada is that there is no national alternative media. All network TV is just compliant liberal or NDP sycophant's with so-called 'journalists' that roll over to have their belly scratched. The level of woke pity-party drivel on the so-called 'News Hour' is beyond pathetic, so biased and historically inaccurate it is hard to believe the weak pathetic normies can even stomach it. At least in the UK they now have GB News, and Australia Sky News. We have nothing. Where are you Conrad Black?

@@terri2494 the Fraser Valley was roaring with support along the overpasses that line the highway. It was truly the most wholesome Canadian event in our recent history.

It was a grassroots movement spurred on by seemingly endless overreaches by the government that seemed all too willing to let the Covid crisis continue indefinitely so long as they got to retain their emergency powers. We finally said enough. It was a beautiful protest. Organized, large, forceful, but polite. The true Canadian way.

You're spot on. As much as I hate and despise "the internet" (in its current "form"), it simultaneously the last frontier of freedom and possibility. If you can't handle the internet at its worst, you don't deserve it at its best. Attitudes towards it will have to change, if we're going to maintain the freedom while mitigating the negative aspects of it. I feel like pretty much the only people who know how to handle the internet come from the age group who grew up with (and in) it from dial-up to the advent of social media, and then more or less disowned the social media aspec of it. I might be completely in the wrong, but I feel like I have a somewhat healthy attitude towards it, but find it utterly hard to find people (both in, but especially outside) my rough age group, who can even remotely understand what I'm talking about.

[@Simply_Simian]

@@botno69420 I’m 26 now with two older brothers born in 1990 and 1986. My earliest memories of the internet are Diablo 2 and StarCraft, to be fair. What I remember most is how the internet could connect strangers towards a common goal. The social media stuff came way later to me and I watched it develop from its earliest stages. Like any platform with an array of functions, it can be used within those array of functions however the user wants. It’s up to each of us and all of us to foster a more positive environment which encourages dialogue and freedom. There will always be a certain amount of people who just don’t care. They want to consume entertainment and exist until they die. That’s fine. That’s them. But we must not let that become the dominant, driving force. Those of us with the awareness to see what’s going on and the desire to engage with likeminded people who are also aware must sustain that spirit. You’re on the right track, my friend.

For most of Canadian history, governments and media were mostly trusted to be truthful and bad governments replaced if the people felt that trust was betrayed. There was little need to distrust our institutions until the last 10 to 15 years or so. And even then, our democracy and freedom was not eroded or so little people did not notice until Trudeau upended it and just went crazy with the lies and propaganda. It took awhile but people are realizing it now. Covid and now this housing and affordability crises coupled with record mass immigration and refugees beyond what we can accommodate and absorb into our economy and culture, the snail pace of development, red tape, gatekeepers, inflation without wage increases to compensate making our money worth alot less than even 3 years ago. Canada has an uncanny ability to remain centre even when things get out of hand though this will be a hard filter that determine if we can or not continue that. Our institutions now hate our culture and history to the point of actively indoctrinating youth to spurn values and traditions that worked and allowed most to prosper even if they had little.

"I call it a siege because that is what it is. It's an illegal occupation." Ford said he's instituting stiffer penalties to protect infrastructure ranging from international border crossings and 400-series highways to municipal and provincial roadways and pedestrian walkways. Non-compliance will now be punishable by fines of up to $100,000 and up to a year in jail, Ford said. Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson pleaded with the Ontario government for help to deal with the ‘lawlessness’ caused by the protest convoy, but grew frustrated with the lack of response. Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson says the city did not have the police resources it needed to handle last winter's anti-COVID-19 restriction protests - and it wanted swifter help from other levels of government. "We needed help," he told the commission Tuesday. "We lost control in the red zone." Watson,said he began pressing the federal government for more police resources after the first weekend of the Freedom Convoy protest.

As an American living in Greece seeing all the reactionary extremism from the governments of Canada and Australia toward the common people changed my mind to view them more of a police state, or a grey state moving more toward a police state than a democracy.

Greece is a great place. Great views, good christian people, what’s there not to like.

Yes and the prime minister of the province and the mayor of the city and the chief of police and 99% of the peoples in the city all approve it! How more could you need to move against an illegal siege of a city main road for one whole month?

Even in the US we were told not to be out past a certain time during peak Covid paranoia in 2020. I don’t know if it was actually enforced since I never heard anyone arrested over it. Still crazy our government tried to give us a curfew in “the land of the free”.

Finally, VIDICATION!! By no less than Jordan Peterson! We moved temporarily to Dartmouth, Nova Scotia from Calif. in 1970. When checking us in to the local Junior HS the principal asked me if I knew who the Prime Minister of Canada was. My mom was mortified when I smartassed answered, "No. Why would I?" He says, 'Well all Canadian students know who the President of the United States is." To which I said, "As well they should." He had nothing to say after that, that I can remember. (It was Justin's "dad" at the time, BTW.)

Strange how Bruce Cockburn, a Canadian, warned of this in his song The Trouble With Normal years ago. It is happening in the US also where certain people are canceled and vilified for their beliefs.

The trucker protests in Canada were about the US vaccine mandate to cross the border. It was literally the policy of a foreign government. That said, you only need to watch John Oliver’s piece on the trucking industry to understand how difficult that life is.

[@andycommonsincanada]

As soon as we heard about the seizure of bank accounts we closed our CICB account the next morning. So did many others in our small town. I imagine that people all over Canada did the same and that’s way they stopped doing that pretty quickly. You can guess what the bank CEOs said the Justin. “ WTF have you just done, you idiot “

This is why they're trying to bring in that cash-less society they've been planning for the last few decades. Put everyone on the dole and they're easier to control. Put cash in a man's pocket and he's got power.

[@theredscourge]

They probably want Canadians to drop the big banks, because in the next banking crisis only the big banks will get bailed out and then all the people skeptical of the Trudeau government will go broke when their small banks and credit unions holding all their assets go broke. Daily reminder that the CIDC only insures the first $100k or so of your savings. I'm looking at you, retirees!
