Coutts Blockade

[dmlfarmer]

If a ther-aputic can be called a vaccine, then a blockade can be called an intervention.

BLM set the precedent for legality in protests. These guys are nowhere near what those radicals got away with.

BLM were primarily US protests. If truckers protest in Canada sets the precedent here, will that justify vegans to blockade meat packers and not be held accountable? How long before farmers lose all chemicals if those opposed to roundup and herbicides are given free reign to blockade governments and cities and borders until government passes a law that all farming must be organic? Lots of complaints by ev and small drivers about super bs clogging roads and causing too much blowing snow and farm tractors are too slow on highways. Maybe they can set up blockades until a government passes laws that truckers and farmers cannot use numbered highways. If enough protesters decide they want to enter your barns, will they have the right to do so because there is enough of them that want it and they claim most people are against animal cruelty? If you endorse anarchy, where does it end? BLM protests are wrong just as the trucker protest is wrong. two wrongs do not make a right.

two wrongs do not make a right.

Tell that to the govt after the 15th lockdown and 4th non working jab.

The govt overreached broke laws and the charter and coerced people to submit now I think the citizens deserve some leeway.

Just make some popcorn dml, nothing for you to do but watch your country get taken back. You are welcome.

Looks like things really escalated at Coutts this morning. RCMP negotiating In bad faith now stuck between a rock and a hard place. Kenny's political career is over.

Cell towers at Coutts shut down now.

Sure would be unfortunate if truckers were to use CB radios in a daisy chain to communicate in and out

If this such a dire situation, then Kenney and Trudeau can call in the army at any time. Police had no problem tackling that kid that jumped the meridian with the tractor up by Lacombe or those kids playing hockey in Calgary.

Please do, lets see how that one plays out.

These people initated the blockade but the RCMP will end it with all tools necessary. The Border access is a Federal responsibility all options are open.

There will be hundred of trucks to move and hundreds of people to arrest and everyone has a cell phone. By Sat there will be hundreds more. You think farmers or tuckers are going to let our effeminate military impound millions in equipment without a fight. Good luck.

You are right on the money and have thought the same thing. I guess what differentiates the Ottawa protest from the coutts blm etc is it is peaceful and it isn’t blocking business from happening. Put it in another perspective that the ruling members of the federal liberal party are made up of activists and how scary that is.

If your scenario plays out. How do you expect the average hard working moderate center silent majority Canadian to respond?
The people who have been indifferent to vaccine mandates and lockdowns. Don't have any blind political ideologies.
When they watch military take down of some unarmed fellow Blue collar Canadians, and destruction of their livelihoods, do you think they will truck and go back to watching their hockey game, or will this galvanize them against such heavy handed dictatorial type actions. It may just unleash something much much bigger than what they are trying to quell right now.
And remember, those unfortunate folks in the Ottawa apartments downtown are 100% reliant on all of the hard-working Blue collar Canadians to keep them alive, the opposite is most certainly not true. These people hold all the cards. The threat of unifying the silent majority (which the political class has worked so hard to divide) has to be the biggest possible concern of any government actions.

And do you think our economy can function in its already crippled state when you imprison the most productive members and impound the equipment that makes the world go round?
