He was run out of town. No way a bunch of thugs and white nationals should take over a city. The public wants action and the police chief sat on his a$$. Hope other in positions of the authority are paying attention. The people want an iron hand when dealing with these losers and their supporters.


+1 replace him with someone who will get the job done and crack some skulls. This has gone on far too long.


So you’re advocating police brutality as the answer for to conscientious objectors……you’re an idiot.


You can not allow the criminals win. No one wants to live under the rule of these conservatives truckers and their foreign backers. I would go further- they should be held in 24 hour a day isolation and all their assets seized. Anyone who help them gets the same. There is a war being waged right now. The future of Canada as a free state is at stake. It is no coincidence that is happened after Canadian government released a plan to deal with another trump/republican administration.


This is not about foreign backers fomenting dissent in Canada, rather it seems very much to ve an internal debate among Canadians. Brian Peckford, the last living signer of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms that was a bill of rights for Canadians entrenched in the Canadian Constitution Act of 1982, is currently pursuing legal action against the Canadian government for travel bans for unvaccinated citizens.

It’s not an internal debate. It is just a few people who want to do what they want. It’s just like when the government cracked down on DWI. A few losers just never understand it is time to change your ways.


Why do you think that? Trudeau only won with 32% of the popular vote and has an approval rating of 38%. Why doesn't that indicate that the vaccine mandate platform that he ran on has domestic dissension?

I mean it can’t be a coincidence that Doug Ford announced no vaccine passports starting March 1 when they were all nuts like squirrels for vaccine passports till the day before.

Locals blockade fleet of out of town "freedom convoy" trucks in the "Battle of Billings Bridge." Truckers were eventually forced to negotiate a retreat, taking down their flags and surrendering jerry cans.

As the sun was going down and the temperatures dipped, the truck drivers in the convoy were permitted a “negotiated retreat” — they were allowed to leave one at a time, but only after their trucks had been stripped of flags, and “Freedom Convoy” stickers, and surrendered any jerry cans.

“The look on their faces when they were taking down their flags was one of defeat, not of pride,” said Harden.

Sean Devine went to the blockade with the intent of speaking to as many people in the convoy as possible.

“I don’t want to take away anyone’s right to protest, but I wanted them to hear that they’re having a negative impact on the citizens of Ottawa,” said Devine, who said about two-thirds of drivers in the convoy agreed to talk.
...
By the time the blockade was over about nine hours after it began, those who were part of what some have dubbed “the Battle of Billings Bridge” were declaring victory.

Capital ward Coun. Shawn Menard, who was at the blockade all day, estimated that more than 1,000 people attended. “Organically, we were 1,000 people standing shoulder to shoulder,” he said.

The poll numbers for the truck drivers is like 0.5% approval. There is no support for them and their anti vaccine, anti mask, no insurance, no registration of commercials vehicles, no speed limit, etc. What you are saying is similar to saying trumps poll numbers were 38% because he shut down the economy and the schools therefore David Duke should dictate new laws.

If Trump had gone full Trudeau-mode on the BLM protests, the left would be screaming about “right wing fascism”. When a liberal does it though it’s fine. Just further proof that the left isn’t anti fascist, but just prefers fascism that aligns with their beliefs.

Now tell us how the right is a bunch of hypocrites who freak out when black people are in the streets but cheer for white people.

I’m actually black, so needless to say I don’t need to do that, and just to let you know in advance I’d also generally prefer that you not white-splain to me your interpretation of the interplay between political views and racism. Thanks though.

I'm a long time Trump supporter, but he lost me when he lied about his inauguration numbers.

Another blockade of the "Freedom Convoy" by citizens who are fed up with the occupation by the outsiders.

A dog-walking group from the neighbourhood organized the counter-protest on social media and stopped a small convoy of flag-bearing vehicles just after 9 a.m.

Ten women stepped in front of the vehicles.

An at times tense standoff ensued with counter-protesters exchanging unpleasantries with the stranded drivers as hundreds of people swarmed Riverside Drive, east of Bank Street. The counter-protest swelled during the day as news of the entrapment spread.

By 3:40 p.m., the first few ensnared vehicles were allowed to depart — they had to remove their flags first — under a heavy police escort as organizers sought to de-escalate the situation.

The right wing, Trump and the GOP went full on insane about the George Floyd protests.







Any of this ringing any bells at all? No, nothing? We were screaming about fascism, because that’s what the GOP is, does and stands for.

Canada now holds a political prisoner.

Sad to see them descend into fascism.

Kind of like these truck protesters and their supporters, who have been lying and grossly exaggerating their numbers.

If you pee your pants in fear this easily, I recommend an absorbent undergarment.

Terrorists are not political prisoners. Republicans are never sad to see fascism rise anywhere.
