I know many of you on DCUM are in disagreement for how your leadership is handling domestic and international politics.

I know many of you care about this possible demotion, and maybe this will help mobilize your Democrat and Independent voters. I would love your feedback.

Possibly? Dude where have you been?
What next, folks, courts can "save" you?

You do know that it was a civil lawsuit by the citizens of the City of Ottawa (not the federal government) that initiated that law suit. The truckers harassed local Ottawa citizens who live in the neighbourhood in which they occupied.

Just to note that those truckers were flying Nazi, Proud Boys, and other white supremacy flags, and were supported by right-wing supremacy groups in the US. They were even flying the Confederacy flag around. How does that flag speak to Canadian history?

Wow, this is such BS! It certainly was a federal lawsuit. And those truckers were flying Canadian flags - lots and lots of them - none of the other flags you list were there. What a ridiculous claim. -DP

A weeks-long blockade in the Canadian capital has led to almost 200 arrests and prolonged suffering for businesses caught in the middle of protests against Covid-19 mandates.

Canadian authorities on Sunday froze the finances associated with certain individuals and companies believed to be involved in the ongoing protests in Ottawa, according to Mike Duheme, Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) deputy commissioner of federal policing.

The RCMP froze 206 financial products, including bank and corporate accounts; disclosed the information of 56 entities associated with vehicles, individuals and companies; shared 253 bitcoin addresses with virtual currency exchangers; and froze a payment processing account valued at $3.8 million, Duheme said at a news conference.

More than 200 bank accounts worth nearly $8 million were frozen when the federal government used emergency powers to end a massive protest occupation of downtown Ottawa.

Of course there were some bad actors - just as there are at ANY protest. That has nothing to do with the mission and message of the truck convoy. But I'm sure you'll continue to look idiotic and insist all those truckers and people supporting them, waving Canadian flags, were just "white supremacists."

It’s true. If this is what ends us all, at least I know that DCUM provided me with comfort in times of needing to be connected, such as the pandemic; as well as now, and drawing from the laughs from the other forums, and some hints of those forums on this forum (ie. the burgundy washcloth).

Trump and MAGA are the worst. Can’t wait until the cult of personality is over. The US is dismantling its democracy. It fired all the cybersecurity folks overseeing elections. Musk is buying Congress now. It’s a clown show.

Well guess what, elect somebody who tried to thwart an election and this is what happens. I'm beyond angry when I see the taxes I have to pay while billionaires often pay nothing. FU to all of them. And please, spare me the line about how much in taxes the employees work in their companies pay.

No WE did not support the truckers. How can you call someone “innocent” who was blaring their air horn all day just to psychologically destroy their fellow citizens?

I mean our own current president used tear gas against peaceful protestors (no not the non peaceful ones) to stage a photo op with a Bible at a Church.

The majority of Americans did not support those truckers descending on Parliament Hill or n Ottawa (the capital of Canada) just like the majority of Americans did not support the loser J6 attack of the Hill.
