    Trudeau slams 'unacceptable' protests as police warn truckers

    Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has hit out at protests by truckers around the country as "unacceptable".
    Speaking to parliament in Ottawa, he defended the Covid restrictions that have prompted truckers to converge on the nation's capital.
    Ottawa police meanwhile warned protesters could be arrested, and a conviction might cost them their jobs.
    The protests in Ottawa and at two Canada-US border crossings have been going on for two weeks."...

    The truckers are protesting against a rule requiring truckers entering Canada to be fully immunised against coronavirus. The demonstrators have also voiced opposition to Covid passports and mask mandates.
    Mr Trudeau has refused to budge on federal Covid measures, even as provinces begin lifting their restrictions.
    Alberta, Saskatchewan, Quebec and Prince Edward Island have all announced plans to lift most mitigation measures this month. Nova Scotia and New Brunswick are also easing some restrictions.
    On Tuesday, Alberta Premier Jason Kenney said pandemic-related rules had "disrupted and even destroyed livelihoods" in the province.
    In Coutts, Alberta, on the border with the US state of Montana, RCMP officers began issuing tickets on Wednesday to remove dozens of trucks that have been blocking that international crossing for about two weeks. No arrests have been reported, and authorities said that enforcement would take place in "stages" beginning with information gathering.
    "Really it's going to be up to them," said RCMP Superintendent Roberta McKale, calling on them to move on their own.
    "Up until this point it's been us asking them and this afternoon we don't have an option, we're going to have to use our enforcement options to have that happen."
    Mr Trudeau has faced criticism from within his own party over his handling of the protests, which come as infections from the Omicron variant decline significantly.

    Quebec MP Joël Lightbound, a fellow Liberal, criticised the prime minister this week for "demonising" groups that disagree with Covid mandates.
    "It's becoming harder and harder to know when public health stops and where politics begins," Mr Lightbound said. "It's time to stop dividing Canadians and pitting one part of the population against another."
    Interim Conservative leader Candice Bergen accused Mr Trudeau on Wednesday of wanting a "permanent pandemic".
    "The prime minister needs to put his ego aside," she said. "He needs to do what's right for the country. He needs to to end the mandates. He needs to end the restrictions."

    At a news conference on Wednesday, organisers of the Freedom Convoy said protesters were "upbeat". They added that the truckers were resting so as to be "re-energised" for weekend protests, which they likened to a "festival".
    Reacting to the police warning, a lawyer for the protesters maintained in a statement that their actions were lawful.
    "Noisy, inconvenient or unwanted protests are protected and must be facilitated," the lawyer said.
    The protesters have raised $7.8m on website GiveSendGo as of Wednesday after GoFundMe cancelled their fundraiser and began refunding some $10m in donations.

    Republican officials in at least two US states - Texas and Missouri - have opened investigations into GoFundMe over the decision.
    The protests in Canada have inspired similar events around the world from Australia and New Zealand to France. Online chatter is building for a trucker protest in Washington DC."

      So in a city of 1 million people, that means over 100,000 are supporting the truckers. That is undoubtedly a minority, but 100,000 people carrying Jerry cans around the city or showing solidarity in any other way is hard to ignore. That is in one of the most pro-government cities in the country. And pro Liberal. Only twice in all of history did Ottawa Center not vote in a federal Liberal.
      A little recap on your progress towards facism there in Ottawa:

      Freedoms gained: 0
      Governments overthrown: 0
      Mandates removed: 0
      Conversations with governing majority party: 0
      Original motion on purpose of occupation: Removed from fear of jail time

      Freedoms lost of passenger drivers, shoppers, real working truckers, business that just want you pigs to go home, businesses shutting down and of course pissed off residences: Lots and lots and lots.

      Losers.

      Edit: oh and the absolute guarantee the Conservatives will never have a majority government - cemented.

        I recently read Gem streaming required $1.2 billion in government funding to start up.
        Anybody watch Gem or think we needed it?
        CBC television runs at 3% viewership much of the day. Is that not a reflection of the public holding them accountable for providing something people eant to see?
        You would have some influence if you had a party that supported your views. A strong leader with a vision for Canada that aligns with your passions. A leader like Maxime Bernier and the People's Party of Canada.

        Perhaps in question period you could get him to speak a little louder so all can here his brilliant strategies to make everything white. Oh, sorry, I meant everything right.

          They need a new bunch of cops necause the ones that have been down there for 2 weeks hanging around with the people know exactly what is going on. They arn't going to suddenly pull out thier nightsticks and start busting head when they basicly know a lot of the people.
          CX gas and mothers and kids doesn't play very well

              Lets count again tweety.

              4 provinces drop restrictions
              2 ministers turn on Trudeau, probably on his way out
              1 conservative leader punted and a whole lot more fire brought to the party
              1 NDP leader outed as a full on fool
              Numerous other trucker demonstrations around the world, protestors now carry the canadian flag
              6 US states dropped mandates this week
              3 US convoys on the way to DC
              2500 Ottawa police officers stunned
              10 members of Ottawa council full on marxist commies
              Canadian media on its deathbed
              Bigger protests this weekend as other flock to the movement.

              And in several days, one big tidal wave of lifting in both countries.

              Its a huge success. They have already won. Only the size of the victory is in question.

                The left must be so reassured to hear that the government is proposing to take kids away from their families because the government knows best, and has the best interest of those children. Especially since I expect there are some first nation families still there.

                After all, they have certainly been very supportive of the government taking away first nations children by previous generations.

                In fact, I seem to recall Chuck himself starting multiple threads per day about this very issue. He seemed to be in favour of destroying statues and violent protests about this very issue.
