You do not like some regulations.
Well I do not like conservatives BS either. Give away a farmers right to own a seed, give away Canadian sovereignty in trade deals in favor of multi national corporations. Cut off the balls of the Canadian government and its people to do much of anything. Allow monopolies to flourish.
Thanks a holes ( liberal and conservative), but I do not have a my cultivator stretched across the highway.
Now do I?
Because that would be being a dick.
I believe in democracy and have to put up with it.
This protest is a tantrum by such hard done by folks, that want the right to kill off people from covid at a rate 2.4 times Canadas rate , like the US.or even higher.
Well who wouldn't want that. Freedom my ass
They also won't stop you from choosing to wear your face diaper... hell wear 5 of them at the same time if you're scared to breathe air.
They also won't prevent you from locking yourself in your home never to come up for daylight.
Because the choice is yours to live in perptual fear...
But a lot of people in Canada are done with others dictating how they are to live their own lives!

The other also in his 40s , was a Trump was the greatest even before the election ,so of course anti vaxer, 5 months after covid still suffering, working 1/2 days I feel feel for him , but is it ever right to say I told you so.or am I being a dick.

Perhaps the loyalties of law enforcement, and the military, and and contractor they might try to hire to physically remove the equipment are all in question.
This could escalate massively if the military is called in, and they refuse to side with the government who has ridiculed and belittled them. And the RCMP are being used as a pawn in equalization negotiations between Alberta and Ottawa, they may decide it is time to take a stand. The tow truck drivers already made their stand. What contractor with a wheel loader is going to ruin the future of their business by getting involved.
I suspect that if the government was certain of the loyalties of all these groups, they would have moved in already. Keeping in mind that this is against a group of unarmed private citizens, they certainly aren't worried about violence if they act.
Are we on the same page here? Is this what you were thinking? If the tow truck drivers are taking a cue from Trudeau and refusing to help since they all have Covid, why would the military or law enforcement not do the same thing too? Follow in the foot steps of the example set by their spineless leader?
I honestly hope it doesn't get a chance to escalate to that. If law enforcement lays down their arms in solidarity with the peaceful truckers, there exists a fringe minority of anarchists and thugs elsewhere in society who will take full advantage of that. I expect our politicians know this full well, and won't let it escalate to that point.
Are you here to have a meaningful two sided conversation, or just to sling mud?

Thanks for the link. That is a lot of boots on the ground detail.
Has anyone questioned why social media has not been shut down, if it is being used to organize? Does our country have the capability, or legal right to do so, or is that just a China etc thing?

Lets see what this weekend brings. My bet is there are hundreds more people going to join in coutts to make a stand. The Ottawa protest will get big again and more diverse and new protests in Toronto and Quebec City ought to get attention. If Quebecers are protesting, Trudeau and the media get muzzled.
The truckers have the perfect protest. Truck sits, they walk a bit, blow the horns, go back and have a wait in the sleeper, rinse and repeat. They dont have to do anything more.Last edited by jazz; Feb 3, 2022, 07:45.

I notice that as well. You ask the left a question, or show them numbers and facts. And they refuse to respond. So I have come to realize there are a few options as to who or what they are:
1. Really dumb, they cannot think on their own, or look things up on their own, so they simply can’t answer.
2. Here for the sole purpose to try and make us crazy.
3. Intentionally withholding what they know, which is more than they let on. Ie. they know the truth, but pretend they don’t
4. Hired by the ndp. They actually think they will change our minds.
5. fourteen year old city kids from Vancouver’s downtown east side
6. on drugs, and post on here between highs. Sometimes they forget to completely sober up when positing.

Breakthrough in Alberta border blockade, lanes open in both directions
Wed, February 2, 2022, 4:41 PM
There has been a breakthrough aimed at resolving the impasse in a protest blockade that has snarled cross-border traffic at the main United States border crossing in southern Alberta. Chad Williamson, a lawyer representing truckers blocking access to the crossing at Coutts, Alta., says they have spoken with RCMP and agreed to open a lane of the highway in each direction."

So you "freedom" loving guys seem to think any small group of people who have a grievance or disagree with anything should be able to mount a blockade and change government laws and mandates without following the democratic process and constitution? LOL
If you really think this is a viable way to run a county, town, city, province country then you are ignorant fools!Last edited by chuckChuck; Feb 3, 2022, 08:36.
