I see Canada walks the fence and imposes mandates when it suits them, yet backs down on mandates when it suits them. Canada may visit a mandate at a later time, when they figure they have the upper hand.
You cant even make this stuff up anymore. Unvaxxed Canadian truckers are going to be allowed across with no quarantine, but unvaxxed American truckers will be turned away... Makes perfect sense only to an idiot.
Canadian truckers have said they are gong to shut down at noon Jan 23rd in protest...
Anyways, attention fat people, best prepare for a shortage of things like food and stuff,, that is all.
Yea I saw the first report and thought someone had knocked some sense into them, but guess not. I talked to a friend the other day that owns 4 local businesses and he said they are dying from a thousand cuts. The supply chain shortage along with the mandates is becoming harder and harder to overcome. He cant even get parts for his trucks so he's got guys scavenging all over the Territory. The trucker ban will only make it worse. I dont think Trudeau is the sharpest pencil, but he's not so stupid that he cant figure out this will make it worse. I believe they plan to ruin the economy so they can start over. Once things get real bad they are going to offer everyone a yearly salary and then they have people right where they want them.
Meanwhile in the UK communist Boris Johnson is hanging on to power by a thread. Sounds like a good chance he will get the boot. One can hope.
I notice alot of pressure on Corporations and business to impose Vaccine mandates seem to be connected to China in some way. Its probably nothing.
Did you vote for Trudeau?....
Peter Schweizer said the research for his new book "Red Handed," was the scariest investigation he has ever done. Since he is the author of "Clinton Cash" thats saying something. In his new book he documents certain politicians connections with the communist chinese. The ties run deep, and no doubt Trudeau is involved.

Saw a meme that said "Biden's head is so far up the Chinese ass he can see Trudeau's feet."
Everyday I get out of bed, Trudeau takes another leap toward delivering our Country up to the reality of a one World Governance, not just a concept anymore.
About 40 years ago, a brilliant long gone friend said to me that he figured Trudeau could be the antichrist, we laughed because it was funny, but he could be right, he just had the wrong Trudeau because he was referring to his Dad, Pierre.
Either way, it is becoming more clear everyday how our populace can be manipulated by just a few at the top, or in this case, one person if left unchecked can do alot of damage.
An example of this can be found in how our Citizenry has been divided into 3 categories, Native, Country born, and recent immigrants. It was interesting timing on the announcement of 40 billion for Natives, they won't rock the boat and risk losing that gravy train, at the same time they get to hand over scads of cash to a People who are fas, drugged, and zero money handling skills, so its a win win for the man.
The silence from the Native community is alarming, not a peep from those who have stated an age long mistrust of Government, they are also the most anti vax group in the Country, by far, yet total silence on the entire subject. They don't rely on working to put food on the table either, so they have been bought in a number of different ways.
Inflation is going to be a tough one for some families, and Trudeau is 100% responsible for all of it.

I ask myself that same question, that is how can everyone be manipulated by just a few at the top.Then I talk to people and read many comments on the internet and I am no longer sure if it just a few people at the top.I come to believe that many of the population is very liberal and want all this crap.Many don't value family, don't want to work hard and make more money-many hate their jobs etc... The other day there was an article on fox news about the tennis player that got expelled from Australia.I read the comments and there were many calling aussies communists and such.There were many aussies commenting and returning the attacks and saying how much they love their situation and government.Liberals are expanding exponentially that could be why we are in this mess.
Not all Communists are Chinese. The "united front" has an estimated 20,000 members in Canada, there are likely 100,000 of them doing the work of the CCP in Canada. The fruit of their work is right in front of every Canadian for viewing, many of them in influential positions.
You ain't gonna see that on the news. Actually, the moronic Chief Doctor we have here in BC did acknowledge Alphonso Davies (soccer) had a heart issue, supposedly from the Vaccine, then brushed it off like it was FA.
It wasn't the vaccine they said but from the Covid. Once covid gets in the blood stream, that is one of the things that were noted. There goes our hope in the World Cup.

Of course it was. Maybe you should just sit this one out bud LOL
Then why was one this of the long covid issues before there was a vaccine. You have spend too much time in strange holes and not enough time in looking around what's really happening.
I know one trucker from Quebec who is going.He tells me it's going to draw a lot of truckers-many thousands from far and wide.Hopefully this will encourage other people who value freedom to stand up, reject the poisonous "Vaccine" and fight for their rights.

Our county is the third least vaxxed in the state, Pa. Much talk about that, running us down. Hillbillies, uneducated, "God and guns". Never heard about the least vaxxed.
Hmmmm!
We are 98% white. #2, our Eastern neighbor is probably more white.
Wonder what the demographic of Philadelphia county is. (Yes, it includes the city)
By the way, we are 35% vaxxed. So if we are bad, why isn't the huge (pop) county thats only 1/3 as vaxxed?
The natives on the Rez next to me here in ND get 1000 dollars to get the jab. One showed me his van card. My buddy who is native wants the 1000 bucks but not the vax. He’s still trying to figure it out. Edk

Check is in the mail here too, the Natives have clearly shown they need to get paid to take the jab, I don't think its working from what I can tell. They will get a pass instead, we already have a balkanized system.
Butts is a sly one, don't know who Butts is? figure it out.
I wonder what he will tell Trudeau to do it if there is a serious food shortage? I can see him bringing in the "emergencies act" I suspect Trudeau will simply close the curtains, have his assistant roll a couple fatties and ride this one out in the basement. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergencies_Act
Then why was one this of the long covid issues before there was a vaccine. You have spend too much time in strange holes and not enough time in looking around what's really happening.
Trudeau stated many times get the triple vaccine and booster and you will never get covid. Are you that phuggging dumb and cowardly? Just another useful communist idiot lol
"Then why was one this of the long covid issues before there was a vaccine. You have spend too much time in strange holes and not enough time in looking around what's really happening."
The media is entertainment at its finest. The authority the media here in BC is cycling is this one, the Canadian truckers alliance, they don't support the convoy. They clearly state... "This regulation isn't changing so, as an industry, we must adapt and comply with this mandate" says the President Stephen Laskowski. ......Fugging clown.
Then the other hit piece was delivered by some expert from Dalhousie University who says the trucking industry has had months to comply. LOL We have all had months to comply.
I don’t understand the convoy thing. Just park all the trucks at home for a week or so and I guarantee people and newspapers will notice . Both sides of the border need to do this. They couldn’t fire everybody because that would accomplish the same as a shutdown. Edk

Truckers convoy, rolling out of BC today headed for Ottawa.
Good to see strong Canadian men standing up to facist Trudeau. I was listening to the CBC radio for laughs yesterday and they said the protest was due to unsafe road conditions.
Truckers convoy, rolling out of BC today headed for Ottawa.
Will be rolling through here, Dryden Ontario, on Wednesday the 26th !!
Highway 17 (#1), right through town !! I'll get some photos, as the pass my shop !
Hey that would be great!
673; Morning sir, hope all is well with you all.
There's some language in this video as well as some parts that can be gone through on fast forward, but it shows how big the convoy is going through southern Saskatchewan.
The lack of media coverage on this is pretty telling I would opine.
Jim; Good afternoon to you sir, I hope the day's been a good one for you all out east and you're all healthy.
Perhaps you're correct in that the protest won't have any positive movement from the government, but I would suggest that if nothing else it will indicate to the citizens of Ontario how unsatisfied the rest of the country is with the federal government that they've been instrumental in electing.
Please note I'm not in any way indicating you personally did that, but Crown Prince Shiny Pony got re-elected in the populated areas of the east, certainly not anywhere west of the Manitoba border.
The extreme lack of coverage by all mainstream media outlets at this point might indicate to me that it could come as a surprise to some of our fellow Canadians that all is not well out west, you know?
If the protest does nothing else, it may cause folks in the urban centers to learn the hard way the mechanics of the supply distribution system as well.
Ontario does not need to be reminded of anything, Dwayne. Stop the hating. It gets us nowhere. According to the federal results posted by Elections Canada and found here, the Liberals got 32.6 % of the popular vote. The Conservatives, 33.8%
Canada uses a first past the post system. This is where candidates are elected by a majority within the their respective ridings. That does not mean that a party will win based on the total number of votes cast - aka proportional representation. It depends on the population of those ridings, hence the last election result where Trudeau got less votes than O'Toole but still ended up as PM.
Trudeau promised to change the process to proportional representation, which would reflect the popular vote. He reneged. Had proportional representation been in place last October, the Conservatives would have formed a minority government.
The voting system has nothing to do with Ontario or your belief that this is somehow Ontario's fault. Here is something to consider.
In June 2015, Trudeau vowed that the federal election of that year would be the last conducted under the first-past-the-post system. In February 2017, as prime minister, he decided to walk away from that commitment.
What do Canadians want? From the Process article
But then, there's also what happened after Trudeau broke that promise — when actual voters were asked whether they wanted to adopt reform through referendums in British Columbia and Prince Edward Island.
In December 2018, British Columbians voted against moving to proportional representation by a margin of 61 per cent to 39 per cent.
Who gives a fugg how he/they were elected? We just want them to stop with the Vaccine mandates, the so-called jab doesn't work, isn't there enough evidence in your face. Vaccined up the azz and you still get sick, the NHL is full of sick players, ok, so cut the liberal loving bullshit.
I hope the protests around the world intensify and the hoax perpetrators along with those that supported them start running for their lives.It might be a good idea if these protests were held in front of the media buildings and main goverment buildings.

I responded to Dwayne.
You obviously cannot read. And were probably part of the 2/3rds of BCers who voted to keep first past the post. Or worse, did not vote at all.
The term is...."mass formation psychosis" and it sounds like some folks had better get ahold of their psychosis before they are overtaken by their own self righteousness.
You are just trying to derail this thread, we know you have your nose up trudeau's azz, which is the point, but you cant see that because you are the enemy. Go start your own thread.
I just heard that the truckers go-fund me $4KK just got seized !
Can not confirm !
Just got an update from gofundme, its up too 4.7 million. Not sure where you heard that but prepare for hit jobs, they have already started.
I think they are concerned with some "pretending" to be part of the convoy and creating a static and the media being there with camera's. That would take amazing timing, considering they are nowhere to be heard nor seen.
Prepare for hit jobs from people on this site lol.
There’s a ton of misinformation from MSM, probably most of it. For on the fly updates and real news, download the Zello walkie talkie app (convoy to Ottawa) and follow along.
Unbelievable support from Manitoba! Thousands and thousands of people out. Take back Canada.
My news feed outta Thunder Bay is reporting Go Fund Me froze the money until the organization shows a transparent show of how the money is to be spent. So evidently Go Fund Me can just steal your money!!
Organizer behind anti-vaccine mandate convoy says it won't tolerate extremists as online rhetoric heats up Extremist groups and individuals have made efforts to join the protest, raising security concerns Peter Zimonjic, Travis Dhanraj, Stephen Hoff · CBC News
A key player behind a convoy travelling to Ottawa to protest a vaccine mandate for truckers is warning that those planning to use the event for acts of violence or vandalism won't be tolerated.
Addressing her Facebook followers in a video posted on the Freedom Convoy 2022 Facebook page, Tamara Lich said the convoy is expected to arrive at Parliament Hill in Ottawa over the weekend to protest what she calls infringements of personal liberty caused by public health orders.
"If you see participants along the way that are misbehaving, acting aggressively in any way or inciting any type of violence or hatred, please take down the truck number and their licence plate number so that we can forward that to the police," she said.
"The only way that we are going to overcome this is through love and light, not hate and division," she said. "I think as Canadians we've all seen enough of that. It's time to move past that."

I don't have a problem with someone making sure the money doesn't go missing, donations are still rolling in.
Just more BS to smear this peaceful but powerful protest. This is more than just about taking back Canada. The world is watching, non-stop calls from around the world watching and supporting. They are all looking at us hoping for success. This is all about individual choice which means no mandates of any kind, anywhere for anyone.
Exactly, the vast majority of what we will see in mainstream media will be focused on 'redneck' poorly spoken individuals. If the media portrayed this event accurately they would also include interviews of some of the well spoken university degreed Liberal, NDP, Conservative and other party supporting truckers who are partaking in this protest, but that is unlikely.
The Vaccines aren't working, why have any mandates at all?
There are 32,000 people who supposedly have Omicron in BC, probably 100,000....they have no idea most People don't go get checked for a sniffle, I don't think you can get tested now anyways unless you go to the hospital with symptoms.
673; Good evening again my friend, I hope the day was a decent one for you all.
When I was working in the cabinet business we had a bunch of Sikhs working with us and I got to know a few of them well enough that they called me their friend and I said the same.
There's for sure good and bad in their community, but I will say this about that all.
When the flooding hit in Abbotsford, the Sikh community was out in full force helping move the dairy cows, putting folks up, feeding the crews, etc. They stepped up in a HUGE way from what I could see.
The guys at work would talk to me about what life was like back in India sometimes. They had less use for communists than the Vietnamese crew I had, a couple of which were ex South Vietnamese Army so that's saying something.
They were not keen on Muslims either, I'll say that.
Oh, if I was looking to pick a fight with an ethnic group, I'd make a point to look elsewhere, that much I do know.
Anyways we'll see how this all plays out as always. I was underwhelmed with Global News Kelowna's coverage of it for sure, but at least they're consistent, I'll give them that.
The commies are really scrambling. The statement below says alot. The Government has chosen the Canadian trucking alliance as the absolute authority, so there, take that pesky minions....(otherwise known as Canadians)
“Since the outset of the pandemic, the Government of Canada and the Canadian Trucking Alliance have engaged regularly with one another and with other key partners to identify emerging issues and mitigate disruptions. This engagement has been critical to keeping trucks moving, while also keeping Canadians safe from COVID-19.
“The Government of Canada and the Canadian Trucking Alliance both agree that vaccination, used in combination with preventative public health measures, is the most effective tool to reduce the risk of COVID-19 for Canadians, and to protect public health.
I know the Government of Canada will not be held to any account from major side effects from the jab, but will some of the other entities who have been "pushing" the jab through mandates etc...be held liable?
I don't think I would want to be responsible for mandating any so-called Vaccine. From what I have been hearing, law firms have been overwhelmed with potential lawsuits.
When Trudeau paid off the media what 6 years ago, I guess he bought their loyalty till the end of time, unless they are still on the payroll which would not surprise me.
Shut them off and follow along through other avenues.
There are two Facebook pages to join. Zello walkie talkie app Tik tok Youtube I think the Twitter account has been shut down? Probably many more but this forum is as close to social media as I get.
This is hopefully just the start of a global (peaceful) protest.
White dodge longbox hauling a camperized 10’ utility trailer. Hopefully we see you.
Nash, well done mate !!
I'm back a little west of you, near the ford dealership.
Great show, 55 minutes now & still coming !
Lots of horns !
We passed you somewhere along the way. Let me know how long this thing is. More people joining and still lots trying to catch up yet.

Last minute decision. BIL needed a copilot and asked me late the afternoon before they were headed through Medicine Hat . We had just enough time to ready a pick up and trailer and everything we’d need for a few weeks on the road. Caught up to the convoy in Regina.
I hope to see Steve waving a flag beside the highway somewhere. There have been so many military personnel and veterans calling into to say how much they support this. They are not allowed to protest as they signed that right away when they joined up.
Americans are crossing the border to show their support and those that can’t are blocking borders and doing what they can on their side. Reports coming in of Australia starting their own convoy now! Take this global!!

I’m confused as to the actual rally day. I thought it was the 27th, I’m hearing about truckers leaving from Windsor and going by here on the 27th, and we’re only about 6 hours to Ottawa.
When is the plan for the big rally?
(I wouldn’t be surprised that the cowardly C-sucker would flee to warmer climes to avoid paying attention to this.)
I believe convoys arriving earlier are just going to circle and wait for everyone else to catch up before everyone heads in together on the 29. Arrival is scheduled for 12pm.
Hearing talk of 'worry' about violence and that has me scared y'all might run into some staged crap just like we did on Jan 6 here in our capital.
Feels like they are setting the stage. Hard to arrest 1450 k though.
Good luck - God bless.
They are aware of that. "They" have already referred to them as right wing/white nationalists, which is ridiculous. Any media coverage now is a hit piece. One thing I am some concerned about is Trudeau pulling the "emergency act" outa his azz, his advisor (Gerald Butts) has enough connections that he could easily stage something to bring about a "martial law" type scenario.
What folks seem to forget is....Trudeau has zero experience with any form of Governance, he was a part time drama teacher, he rode in on name only, put into a position by Globalists to fulfill the will of the Globalists.
If there is any trouble, it will be because these rules have been breached. Both the civil and military powers were briefed and whatever happens will have been discussed. It is standard procedure.
Ottawa police prepare as convoy protesting vaccine mandate heads to nation's capital Thousands of protesters, counter-protesters could take over downtown core this weekend Kimberley Molina · CBC News
Ottawa police are preparing for the arrival this weekend of a massive convoy of protesters opposed to pandemic public health measures — but they say they don't know how big the event will be or how long the protesters might stay.
The 'Freedom Rally' convoy includes transport truck operators from across the country and members of groups broadly opposed to public health mandates. Its participants are planning to stage a protest on Parliament Hill against the federal government's vaccination mandate for all cross-border drivers, which came into effect earlier this month.
"As with any large demonstration, there will be unique and asymmetric elements that are impossible to predict and challenging to manage," Ottawa Police Acting Deputy Chief Trish Ferguson told a special meeting of the Ottawa Police Services Board Wednesday afternoon.
Police say they don't know exactly when the convoy could arrive in the city, how long the protests could last or what each group participating in the convoy has planned.
"We are planning for a range of potential risks, including but not limited to counter-demonstrations, blocking of intersections, interfering with critical infrastructure and unlawful and violent activity," said Ferguson.
I saw our premiere Legault's Twitter page earlier today and he is practicing on becoming a better marxist.He is reading Angela Merckel's autobiography and being inspired by it.He is also talking to some dickhead in the US government about green energy.Alot of Quebecers I talk to hate him and know 100 percent what is going on.One fellow I know is a fleet mechanic and he was planning on being at the rally but he got into a unfortunate snowmobile accident on the weekend-he hit a tree and broke his ribs.
I can’t say enough about our fellow Canadians, the support has been amazing all the way across. I’m feeling some pride again right now. Police, fire, EMT have all been out showing their support.
Hutterites followed the convoy from Manitoba to Kenora to help feed everyone last night as they couldn’t get food to them earlier in the afternoon.
Not quite as many people out on the stretch through Ontario so far but still lots of cheers and smiling faces. Residents in the Thunder Bay Area have been extremely hospitable, clearing a huge parking lot and setting up fire barrels and a huge dinner. Pizza, perogies, sandwiches, hamburgers, smokies, Persians!?? (Cinnamon bun with strawberry icing, delicious!), coffee, garlic bread and spaghetti, fruit, candy, you name it.
Jim; Good afternoon to you sir, I hope the day's been a good one for you all out east and you're all healthy.

Saw Trudeau on the news tonight, looked desperate, the briefing was dated the 25th, so they waited until the convoy reached Ontario before they aired their Primeminister beak about a problem he created, he looked like a beaten child, then he gave his demented smug look lol.
The problem? he has been acting like a dictator, he has been static and single minded during the entire so called pandemic. His party seems to consist of People put into roles because of a need to show diversity, not the best Man or Woman for the job.
So now with things unraveling on the Vaccine front, simply....it isn't working, Peoples businesses, in some cases families have been destroyed. Personally, I don't think I know a family that hasn't had a divide of some nature within their family caused by the so-called Vaccine mandate.
So now Trudeau (Butts) need to morph from.... you need this Vaccine.... to, ok we can back off on the Vaccine now, we have decided that, not the citizens, not anyone but the Government will decide when it ends. They will never admit they were wrong, sound familiar? The longer they continue with the mandates, the more difficult it is going to be for Trudeau to Govern, and in my view, he is finished, but I doubt he would ever resign.
I won't comment on the politics involved in Canada. I will say I support the fact that many are standing up, putting their mouth and actions where their thoughts are. If the world used this as an example we would be better off.
I would hope other countries wake up and support their honest thoughts on the matter with actions such as I see with the Canadian truckers. No intention to butt in or offend. Just my support of the intention for more freedoms.
Other countries ARE seeing this and joining in and even supporting us.
This is a freedom rally for ALL and we want the world to see this and to stand up with us and against their own oppression. So join the conversation and take it with you and spread the message.
I see a lot of Love and support expressed locally on Facebook—a local OPP I know posted a video on Facebook of a large cloud of supporters waiting on an overpass early on this cold morning. (Hodder Ave Thunder Bay). That particular OPP was totally supportive as we’re all the signs people where waving. Imagine my surprise when I see the headline of the local Thunder Bay newspaper covering this event. I read the accompanying article. Reporters threatened? Right wing separatist truckers threating local reporters—refusing to be interviewed? A reporter threatened with trespassing charges? Only about a hundred trucks?—most of them local loggers and we all know how they drive? Just from my own Facebook feed the Thunder Bay paper is totally clueless😡 They are the ones spreading misinformation!
Good morning, thank you for the updates, this is one of the few avenues that Citizens have for "truth". Many People don't have access to any of this "truth" and only have access to a television/radio, for a variety of reasons and are therefore, subjected to misinformation.
I figured that when the People reached Ontario the media would really dig deep and pull every trick they know, and Trudeau is going to shine putting us against one another.
MSM is doing their best to cause divide but the people know better. Rachel parents article in the National post this morning seemed to get the message across the best though I only skimmed it.
Reports are that trudy is now in isolation instead of on vacation after yesterday’s live report?
What a surprise, Trudeau says he needs to go into isolation because he may have been exposed to the Wuhan. He tested negative, but will isolate anyways LOL. Are you fugging kidding me??.......... you just can't make this stuff up, but......I guess you can.
Some friendly folks from Thunder Bay delivered an entire box of coffee for me to my window this morning as we were lining up in the convoy. BIL doesn’t drink it so I have it all to myself.
I will check out his thoughts as soon as I can. The video does not currently want to load for me. We were talking about where he was the other day as we thought he would be likely to join.
Take care and enjoy the fire.
673, this just means he can’t go on vacation either!
A personal and sincere thank you to you as well for making the trip, I can't say enough about how much I appreciate you doing so.
QDM has some interesting thoughts and as with most things I agree with some and not with others, but that's a big part of what I'd personally like to see come back into acceptable conduct, that is the ability to respectfully disagree and have an adult conversation about it.
You and all the rest of the group headed to Ottawa are in my thoughts and prayers for sure. For safe travel, no breakdowns and then for wisdom to handle the unknowns that are coming your way.
Nash—what’s the crowd like in Nipigon? That bridge is the only hiway link between East and West Canada. I couldn’t make it down this morning it’s 32 miles south of me. I immigrated to Canada 50 years ago this month and I remember the hippies that covered that bridge protesting the war. I was on that bridge when Terry Fox crossed it—I was there when Rick in the wheelchair rolled across some years later and I was there when every Indian in the neighborhood marched across it protesting the harmonization of GST and Prov tax. I have never seen anything like the video’s on my Facebook page and You-Tube concerning the turn-out in Thunder Bay. The major news CTV and the CBC can no longer ignore it—but they are mostly reporting on how busy the Ottawa police agencies are preparing for all the violence that is on its way. In my 50 years in Canada I have never seen anything like this—Iam really really proud of you guys!!
I just heard that some of the trucks are gonna take Hwy 11 North instead of 17 East at Nipigon because of lake effect snow towards Sault Ste Marie. Same distance to Ottawa either way. I’m gonna snowshoe up to the hiway to cheer them on.
I am sure this convoy has woken up people.It is showing the world Canada is about freedom above anything else.It has made many Canadians proud.Who knows, other freedom rallies could be inspired by this.
The organizers will not be able to stop extremists from doing their damage. If these factions have their way and cause trouble, the police will not have any option but to react.
Freedom convoy' needs to lose extreme rhetoric, says association head as truckers reach Toronto Convoy gathered at noon in Vaughan before heading east to Kingston CBC News · Posted: Jan 27, 2022
As a self-declared "Freedom Convoy" of truckers opposed to a federal vaccine mandate makes its way through the Toronto area en route to Parliament, the president of one trucking organization says the convoy's original message has been hijacked by far-right or extreme rhetoric.
"We're seeing signs calling our government communists and Nazis and comparing [the mandate] to the Holocaust. And if you're comparing this to the Holocaust, you need to educate yourself," Mike Millian, president of the Private Motor Truck Council of Canada told CBC Radio's Metro Morning.
What began as a group of truckers against the cross-border trucking mandate has amassed the support of groups broadly opposed to public health measures in general, with some even calling for a Canadian version of the Jan. 6 storming of the U.S. Capitol.
Of course Justin’s favorite lil bish Steve would attack these hard working brave Canadians who have kept Canada running throughout the pandemic while he hid under his bed sucking his thumb in fear. Of course the good little NAZI used CBC as a source

I am sure this convoy has woken up people.It is showing the world Canada is about freedom above anything else.It has made many Canadians proud.Who knows, other freedom rallies could be inspired by this.
And yet many cowardly fascists like Steve want them punished for trying to live like free Canadians
Nashville; Good afternoon or evening to you all now out east, I hope you've had a good day on the road.
I've got to say that I didn't think the citizens of Toronto would show up in the same numbers as Saskatchewan and Manitoba did or even the western part of Ontario.
It would appear that I was wrong about that and I'm very glad to admit that.
This is a clip from Global and I'm taken aback somewhat that the reporter didn't find much negative to say at all.
All the best to you all again tonight and then as you press on toward the goal of Ottawa.

I don't like seeing the flag flown upside down. There is a law against being a dipschitt, I recently put it to work and won lol.
So this dipschitt had a Canadian flag flying on his fence, upside down, at first I was just pizzed, then everytime I drove by, it was worse and I finally had enough. I saw kids walking by it on their way to school, veterans walking past daily. I did some checking and found there is indeed a law against displaying the flag inappropriately, so I called the mounties and filed a complaint.
The mounties called me, I told him my beef, he said........oh well he is native I can't do anything about it, I says....so am I, and I want you to do something about it. He says ohhhh ok, you are right, I will check into it, thanks bye........about 3 weeks later, flag is gone. https://laws.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/N-8.6/FullText.html
The fund is being carefully managed, and was completely frozen earlier. Campaign organizers are now being very careful with fund management and public information releases.
GoFundMe releasing $1 million of fundraising money to trucker convoy CTVNews.ca
GoFundMe is releasing an initial $1 million in fundraising money to the organizers of the trucker convoy protesting vaccine mandates, after the website had temporarily frozen the funds earlier this week.
In a statement to CTV News, a GoFundMe spokesperson said the organizers have provided a plan for the money’s distribution to cover the costs of gas for those planning to protest this weekend at Parliament Hill.
“The trust and safety of our global community is our top priority,” the spokesperson wrote in the statement. “That is why we're following our standard verification process and working directly with the campaign organizer to ensure the funds are distributed as stated by the organizer and in compliance with the law and our Terms of Service.”
We got a late start today, 8:40am before we started moving away from Thunder Bay. Lots of slow downs due to weather so we left the convoy behind at wawa and headed straight to Sault ste Marie. THEY ARE KILLING IT HERE!! Way to go SSM, this has been the best turn out in Ontario by far.
I’m at a loss for words. The joy the cheer the noise, fireworks, it’s unbelievable. Be proud of our country everyone and keep it going!
Mike Millian, president of the Private Motor Truck Council of Canada, is worried about the rhetoric coming out of the convoy. He believes the convoy has morphed beyond the original messaging as extremists seek to join themselves to the movement.
"Our organization's become very concerned about some of the rhetoric we've heard, hearing racist remarks comparing (the mandate) to Nazis and communism -- things that are not comparable to what's going on right now," he told CTV News Channel on Tuesday.

There is 5 min I will never get back. The gentleman talks about getting the right message out is important, then gives the wrong message LOL..his message seemed to be protest peacefully, then go get the shots, you done good kid,, kind of guy. CTV, the most trusted name in news.
I notice the media and their experts never mention the Vaccine mandates that are destroying Peoples lives, and the Vaccine that isn't working and isn't necessary for healthy adults in the first place. Stupidest thing I have ever seen, it defies logic.
He is helping, by reminding the public about the original, peaceful intent of the rally. He is reinforcing the idea that outside influences may try to disrupt things. That is a good message.
Or is the intent to drive through the front doors of Parliament?
I can tell you, if you haven't already been told, that access to Parliament will be restricted. While the intent of most of the drivers is peaceful, there will be a radical element working the area. There is a procedure in place to minimize that.
No worries. Don't read anything into it that isn't there. You are getting anxious because you are a day away. Remain calm. Deliver your message. Stay away from trouble.

Then why was one this of the long covid issues before there was a vaccine. You have spend too much time in strange holes and not enough time in looking around what's really happening.
Very astute observation... why are those being paid to observe missing the obvious?
With all the lies they tell us not just now but over the years I doubt that this virus is real or if it is is anything more than a cold.How can you take anything a liar tells you seriously? It's all about their money and doing anything to keep control and make their agenda work.Hopefully people will stop being intimidated by them and continue fighting back.It's time there is freedom and happiness in this world.

Didn't watch it. But if thats the case then no wonder Steve likes it. Its hard to see life if your head is that far up your arse like Steve.
Twinkle Socks in hiding, more and more people converging on the capital, it’s great . The support of True Patriot’s cannot be ignored . No matter how many pansy liberal supporters wish they could…
Oh me and the wife called our stock broker , we had one fund with some Corus entertainment stock .. we dumped it and are encouraging others to dump any media stock in your portfolios. Hit the commies where it hurts, maybe twinkle socks can make payroll for them.
I don't believe it. He was probably told by the media that 'anonymous sources' said those things second-hand, so he's getting it third-hand. The slimy media are always doing things like that.
Just received an update from global as they piggy backed a ctv "reporter". The right wing extremists are getting closer to Ottawa, the streets and bridges are filled with a fringe group waving Canadian flags.
The global anchor asks......what is driving O'Toole to meet with the right wing extremists? Answer.... Erin O'Toole was forced to meet with the truckers because of the right wing element in the Conservative party, he had no choice lolol...... furthermore the Feds won't budge because the mandate still applies in the USA . The protestors have guns. Want to overthrow the Government. ....I like CTV news LOLOL
673; Top of the morning to you my friend, I see your light is on and imagine that like me you're well into the second cup of coffee and third log on the woodstove.
In a past life when we had horses, they were in a pen that was less than an acre, so I'd pick up the horse poop, pile it up and then give it to a couple guys from our church. We had horses for about 17 years, so out of necessity I became something of an expert moving horse dung - or so I thought..
Anyways when I watch some of the media releases just on this topic alone, I now realize I was a mere amateur when it comes to moving barnyard dung..
The media. Remember the "media" are the ones who did hit jobs on Erin O'Toole and Jason Kenny at the 12th hour prior to the last election, allowing the scumbag Trudeau to become the embarrassment he is.
If anything comes out of this at all it is.....the media has exposed "themselves" for the lying trash that they are, and there is no way the CBC should be a crown corporation, either sink or swim, I don't support it, no way.
Even the proudest Trudeau supporter can see what is going on, or maybe you simply are not honest with yourself and therefore, are not honest with your fellow Canadian.
First update of the day, we’re falling behind a bit.
We had a late night after we spent a bunch of time doing laps through SSM. We didn't want it to end.
The convoy was supposed to get on the road at 6am today which generally means we're starting to line up an hour ahead of the departure times. With everyone completely bagged, many slept in and no one seemed to know what was going on.
Having barely any sleep this whole trip and deciding we didn't want another 14hr day driving, BIL and I left at the scheduled time. We are quite a ways ahead of the convoy heading down hwy 17. The rest of the western convoy heading down hwy 11 should be meeting up with them at North bay sometime though we haven't heard an update of where they're at.
Due to a lack of sleep, BIL took the first shift driving and I tried to catch up on some sleep before taking my shift. We didn't get much filmed this morning because of this.
My BIL does a short video every morning and evening which he posts on his Facebook blog, The Crackpot farmer.
What the news media does not understand is that this convoy is, in a large portion, a protest against the establishment elite; this includes the news media. They have to be aware that their credibility is in the toilet, after the last two years of blatant misreporting and bias. I believe the liberal shills are already in place; trying to portray this as a far-right, radical, protest. GD
Thanks for the link Nash. I saw the vid that Dwayne linked too. It showed long lines of people heading into and out of Bass Pro so they obviously did open their parking lot and restrooms to the convoy. There was also a lot of donations piled up on the perimeter road for the truckers—food, paper towels, windshield washer exctera .
You forget his father said "Just watch me ! " and he invoked the War Measures Act. The Riot Act has new name, now . The Americans have no laws this strict.
We are currently enjoying one of our Chinooks and the warm temps they bring. Very welcome, after the stretch of -30ish temps we had over the Christmas and New Years holidays! Hope and pray you fine folks are well and healthy on your side of the tall hills!
Thank you very much for the video. I watched every minute. Not only did it at least somewhat answer my question, but also warmed my heart. Incredible to see the support from Ontario and the GTA. Brings a level of hope.
Cheers Sir!
David

Wrongside; Top of the morning to you sir, I hope the weather's not too, too bad on your side of the tall hills and you're all well.
This guy released a video from somewhere in Ontario and at the 3:00 minute mark or so you can see the BassPro sign.
If they didn't want them there, it wasn't mentioned and I'm thinking it would have been.
Sounds like the LEO in a lot of Ontario communities are actually being quite helpful with parking, etc. which again is very good to see.
Please don't take this as anything other than an educated guess on my part, but there it is.
Any sign of unity from the disgruntled populace is a nightmare scenario to Trudeau and Butts. I was discussing this with a friend earlier today, he thinks that is what is really at the heart of Trudeau's rant the other night, they worked so hard at dividing us for his global handlers over at the WEF. The globalist scum want a digital currency bad, with a digital currency you will be taking the jab or else.
They need to now.......... show how the truckers are bringing hardship to the majority mainly Vaccinated Citizenry, also, how the truckers have been defying health orders that the health overlords have put in place to "keep us safe".
To my amusement I have learned it is Jagmeet Singh's cousin that held the position of the highest donor for several days for a donation of $13,000 I believe its Dhaliwal, Jag was pizzed when he found out and is now in full damage control LOL
Meanwhile O'Toole was the winner coming out and saying he would meet with the organizers.
I think Butts might have to bring in the pro's for this one.
I could not understand how anyone would not vote for O'Toole after two years of Trudeau going on TV every day and telling us that he is going to keep us in jail.If anyone told me they were going to confine me for two years not voting for them is the least I would do.I guess some people were not bothered by the lockdowns.Their normal lives must be like lockdowns.
I could not understand how anyone would not vote for O'Toole after two years of Trudeau going on TV every day and telling us that he is going to keep us in jail.
Exellent question.^^^^ I think it was the big push on the stance O'Toole and Kenny took on the Vaccines, both Conservatives, they found a weakness and exploited it, the timing was such that we didn't really have a good handle on who was full of shyte at the time and there were only a small % of Canadians had it figured, the rest were terrified of the Wuhan, Trudeau just squeaked in.
The media with the CBC, CTV, so-called journalists like Evan Solomon really pounded that exact point relentlessly, exactly like they are doing now, just think....propaganda.
The western convoy split up and took two routes, hwys 11 and 17. They were supposed to be converging again at North bay today. Last we heard they are still probably three hours out from our overnight at Arnprior and yet people have already been lining up outside on the roadways and standing on overpasses. Fires are going and the flags are waving. It’s -25 out and people are willing to freeze for hours for this. Every day, I get more excited and more inspired. I’m mostly at a loss for words everyday as I drive by seeing all this support and like many, no longer feeling alone in this. To feel pride for your nation again that you thought was gone for good… it’s a beautiful thing.
It is comments like these that suggest some of you jokers don't have any idea of history or what the reference to Nazis implies. I'm no fan of Trudeau or his party but I don't go around making irresponsible statements like this. comments such as made by Raferman are the reason a lot of followers of these threads don't participate in discussions. Every one knows about the need to not argue with idiots since they are liable to drag you down to their level.

Nobody wins a pot meet kettle, but I wouldn't judge any man/woman on how the mandates may have affected their own situation, and maybe to them Trudeau is their form of Nazi-ism, and I'm not joking.
Here's a view of part of the front lawn from a live camera view. It's a CTV live feed. It's -20 with a windchill of -27 in Ottawa tonight. A few brave souls wanted pictures before the morning's festivities.

another Justin black face useful idiot. No wonder the eastern provinces embrace facism with weak frightened beta males like you and Steve inhabiting them.
I remember this racist gem from you. How many thousands of business es in Canada have been bankrupted by anti science pro Trudeau facists like you?
The prime minister is quoted as saying that no unvaccinated visitors will be allowed into Canada "for a long time". This should clear up things for the anti- vaccers who want to go fishing or hunting. Now they will have to live with their decision.
another Justin black face useful idiot. No wonder the eastern provinces embrace facism with weak frightened beta males like you and Steve inhabiting them.
Correct! Having the government mandate a free and safe vaccination if you wish to work in certain fields is TOTALLY comparable to killing millions of people in concentration camps. Exactly the same thing.

I am watching the most trusted name in news (CTV) and they say the angry mob is arriving now and the fun is to begin at 12:00. I haven't heard them say right wing/white nationalists for at least a day now.
They are hammering on about how reporters and politicians have been threatened, I wonder if the threats can be equated to some of the threats Citizens of this Country have had leveled at them.
Calling a reporter a poo face, although hurtful, doesn't equate to ....you are fired.....you will be taxed if you don't......you will be publicly shamed if you don't....you can't do this or that if you don't..
673; Morning sir, I see you either can't or don't sleep in either.
The fire's been lit and the first cup of coffee is pretty much down up here.
Morning video from a trucker/pastor and Tucker.
There are a whole bunch of people that I've talked to in the last couple of days who are now wide awake to the fact the media - CBC - CTV - Global - are full on misrepresenting the truth.
If the convoy did nothing else, that'll leave a mark.
I am seeing a unified response coming from the free thinkers, and the thinking is Trudeau with the help of Butts has made a colossal mistake when he referred to them as a "fringe group" and as having "unacceptable views". He really angered many with his infantile rant. I would like nothing more than to hear Trudeau speak on the issue as much as possible.

Indeed I too would like him to get as much air time as possible on this issue as it'll be recorded for posterity then.
Hopefully our fellow Canadians of all shades and persuasions can see now where some of this division is coming from.
There is, I feel anyways, a bit of a sea change happening and I pray it sticks.
Was talking to someone the other day and they said, "Why are we sending $150 Million to Ukraine when we need to rebuild Lytton and the Coq. How about all the FN people who don't have clean water first?"
Watching the "news" from across the Country and they seem to all be talking about how infections are on a downward trend and it looks like we are on the road to loosening restrictions LOL.
I wonder what it would take to have a real media outlet that wasn't controlled by special interest?
They are still implementing mandates all over this province, I am aware of three that have been levelled this past week alone. If we look at a City who implements a mandate for its employees, it affects way more people than just the employees, it also affects all the private contractors who frequent the premises ie: plumbers, carpenters etc... If that isn't stupid enough, it also applies to individuals who volunteer in an emergency like sandbagging during a flood or putting out a wildfire, which we do annually around here.LOL
All to keep staff, "safe"....total bullshyte, the so-called Vaccine isn't working. At a time when Government should be flexible in an effort to minimize damage to its Citizens, they have become the complete opposite and rigid, adhering to rules that simply aren't necessary.
Dwayne LOL...Ihave noticed that global BC will bring in a ringer when they need the drama, this David Akin is one of them, but if you notice the anchor lady is complete with guffaws, head turns, low brow, smirks, and the ever present... "so-called freedom rally".
I really think that the media and this particular government has dug themselves a hole and it keeps getting deeper. The media was clinging to the little credibility it had, but I think Trudeau is done.
He can FO with the gun control too, all based on another lie perpetuated by government and media.
The media has dug a hole for themselves, the threats to politicians and reporters......lets explore the threats and the actual end results of the threats and intimidation this Government has layed at the feet of the populace.
Are you kidding me??.... jobs lost, homes divided, people Vaccine injured, no data available, data skewed, freedoms taken away, but if you take the jab you get that all back, those aren't threats? wtf??
I was looking at a poll that was taken of 30,000 people....78% were in favor of the rally.
Dwayne, all the best from what is turning into a very sunny day here. Thanks for putting that video up -- great message and "Smile and Push Through”.
Mainstream media in Canada is doing its best to either not talk about the total number of people in and supporting the convoy or put negative spins on every possible outcome. Our local news has almost a blackout on anything related to the convoy or the support it has garnered across the country.
It is also amazing to see the number of supporters lining a bridge or the edge of a road and the lack of a mess left behind as we have seen with other protests that have had media support (extinction rebellion - blocking a bridge and leaving a trash heap).
Hopefully the whole that the media has dug for themselves over this and other issues bites them hard.
So after the kids hockey game today we are loading up and heading to the Alberta Ledgeslature for todays protest. Several of my farmer customers headed out with semis this morning, a convoy went from Loyd and met up at Veg then are off to the city. I expect to be there by 5.. Is there anyone here on GETTR? I’m just joining up , I got off of Twitter when Trudeau was elected the second time around. I am not on Facebook, will try and load a video or two up on GETTR later .
I dont know how to make this link work on here, my skills are not good, but this is the link for rebel news livestream, Ezra is going to be out in the crowd shortly.
wabigoon; Good afternoon to you my friend, I hope the day's been a good one for you so far.
It's hard to say how many people are there and please forgive me for saying it, but I wouldn't believe anything most of the media or especially the government would tell me.
If one digs around the Rumble sight a bit and look into Rebel media, they're showing folks of all colors from all walks of life.
I can't describe how much it moved me to see all the French speaking people there too wabigoon. You could push me over with a feather right now still actually - still processing that bit.
Here's another link from Rumble - I'm not sure how it's work but we'll see.
Thanks Dwayne for the link above, there was a livestream for awhile, but they were having tech trouble. Funny how all the politicians are scared to show full support and as far as I am concerned if you walk the fence then your a turncoat, but that is just me LOL. I wasted my party donations lol. I did see Max Bernier out there, I didn't see any others??
Good afternoon all, I looked up a Canada Day protest in 1935.
Hello again, Richard. People are coming and going. The police will have traffic and walking numbers. They have restricted motor traffic, as well as those on foot. It will be like an exhibition, with total attendance announced at the end. Some people wont get to Parliament, but may stage elsewhere.
There are fixers located strategically in and around the grounds. In addition to uniformed officers walking the area, there are plainclothes in the crowd, as well as other areas adjacent to the protest, and around town generally.
It is expected that as the event goes on, there will be an increased chance of trouble.
Ottawa has had protests before, and we had a death in 2014. Cpl Nathan Cirillo was on duty at the Ottawa Memorial when he was shot. With the Jan 6th event from last year in Washington, and intel from various police agencies across the country, those in charge of keeping the peace are doing the best they can. Tonight will be concerning, as will the days ahead.
As of 1845, it is -14 Celsius or 7 Fahrenheit. The weather folks say the overnight low will be -28 or -18 F. Chilly to be outside tonight.
Ottawa weather: Extremely cold temperatures return for the final weekend of January - CTV News
The final weekend of an extremely cold January will begin with another round of extreme cold temperatures gripping Ottawa.
Environment Canada has issued an extreme cold warning for Ottawa, the sixth cold temperature warning for the capital this month.
The low of -28C will challenge the record for coldest Jan. 29 in Ottawa history, which is -28.9C set back in 1952.
"A period of very cold wind chills is expected," said Environment Canada, adding the wind chill will make it feel like minus 35 degrees.
Ottawa Public Health has also issued a frostbite warning, saying expose skin can freeze in less than 10 minutes.
The forecast calls for a clear night with a low of -28C. With the wind chill, it will feel like -36.
There will be lots of sunshine this weekend, but it will be bitterly cold on Saturday. Expect sunny skies and a high of -14 C tomorrow, but it will feel more like -37 C in the morning with the wind chill and more like -22 C in the afternoon. There will be a risk of frostbite tomorrow.
It will be sunny with a high of -10 C on Sunday.
The normal temperatures for this time of a year are a high of -6C and a low of -15C.
673; Good afternoon sir, I hope the day's been a good one for you.
Here's video from Ottawa this afternoon, there's a bunch of people there.
Get this though, here's Prince George...
While I was out of the loop on local stuff, our daughter said the highway coming into town was plugged by vehicles, many of them flying the Maple Leaf.
Thanks for the video's Dwayne, Prince George? lol....way to go Canada!.
In other news, it looks like the angle the Liberals and media are taking is to attack Erin O'Toole and the Conservatives, not sure if there is the division that they say or if they blew it up, we will see in a few days. I can't wait to hear Trudeau address the issue LOL.
Somehow, we made it all the way to right in front of the National war memorial where I think we will be camping for the night. People are so excited for us to be here and the turn out and support is unreal. I just got back from a walk around and I have now seen fireworks while standing at parliament. This feels like the greatest Canada celebration ever.
I’m excited and proud to be here. Let’s keep it going everyone!

This feels like the greatest Canada celebration ever.
I’m excited and proud to be here. Let’s keep it going everyone!
Nashville,
Thank you for what you’ve done, and thank you for the updates. It’s been encouraging to see the support for the convoy, countrywide.
I spoke with an old childhood friend today, who lives in Ottawa. She was beside herself with happiness. Said today- people coming together, smiling and laughing- was one of the most beautiful things she’s ever seen. Hopefully this is the start of change for the better.
Hey guys, appreciate the replies and continued support.
Went for a long walk to take it all in and meet some new people. Taking a warm up break back in the trailer right now.
We’ve had so many people come up and ask us not to leave. They’ve been desperate for others to come and they are so happy we finally have. A young group of guys drunkly offered to pay all my bills, food, fuel, etc. If I will just stay until it’s over with, completely. It’s touching to say the least.
There’s dancing in the streets, drinks, food, horns and music blaring. It’s the most spectacular celebration I’ve seen in my life time. Everyone is smiles from ear to ear and just loving and engaging with each other. Families have come together and young children are playing in the snow. Strangers hugging, high-fiving and even swapping spit hahaha
Hopefully you guys can all make it out to local protests in your area. I’ve seen a fraction of what’s happening across Canada today and it’s good.
The great part is, almost everyone you see in a video walking around is local, either to Ottawa or Gatineau. Most truckers are still trying to figure out how to get into down town Ottawa yet and are strung out for a very long way and by some reports, outside the city yet. The truckers that did make it in mostly haven’t left their trucks in anticipation of left wing vandals.
People are putting out garbage bags and there is very little litter on the ground anywhere. I haven’t seen any one going to the bathroom in the streets and I haven’t seen anyone acting out of place yet.

Steve is your typical facist NAZI spreading disinformation. . How many undercover Canadian Police were used during the violent BLM protests in 2020? No masking, no social distancing, no vaccine passports required.
Steve you're demonstrating once again what a cowardly pro Trudeau facist you are.
Your wife and family must be proud of you

There are fixers located strategically in and around the grounds. In addition to uniformed officers walking the area, there are plainclothes in the crowd, as well as other areas adjacent to the protest, and around town generally.
It is expected that as the event goes on, there will be an increased chance of trouble.
Ottawa has had protests before, and we had a death in 2014. Cpl Nathan Cirillo was on duty at the Ottawa Memorial when he was shot. With the Jan 6th event from last year in Washington, and intel from various police agencies across the country, those in charge of keeping the peace are doing the best they can. Tonight will be concerning, as will the days ahead.
Steve you moron, how many people did the violent armed Jan 6 demonstrators kill or shoot? One unarmed mother of 2 and military veteran was shot by police in DC. Zero firearms were recovered from those arrested for trespassing
Just more fake news from a coward like you.
You're trying to insinuate that hard working law abiding , hard working truckers are going to murder Canadian Police? What a worthless shcitbird you are
Shame on weak men like you

pretty sure it's gay to meat gaze at a banana hammock.
this whole ordeal is inspiring.
we did a couple local rally's here in wyoming last fall raising awareness to our healthcare worker vax mandates by hospitals and it was awesome to get cheers and people stopping. positivity is contagious.
Back home from the city , probably 12,000-20,000 strong down at the Legde… we hit full middle of the small convoy. It was great the small fringe minority, we met Philpinos from Ft Mac, , East Indians from Hinton, some South Africans from the city , and several rednecks from all over Alberta.. All want no mandates and plain old freedom it was awesome..
I’m amazed at all the violence the CTV and CBC are reporting this morning! I watched several video feeds from downtown yesterday and last evening—diligent as I was I missed several incidents now being reported!! Evidently someone was standing up on the tomb of the unknown soldier and several signs were hung on Terry Fox statue. Most disconcerting of all—a CP-24 reporter was asked to leave from one of the parking lots and some violent red-necked truck drivers were kicking his tires on his way out! The violence must stop!!!
Global news with David Akin, what a waste of oxygen, attacks the Conservatives, PPC, the angry mob threatened restaurant and hotel workers and then stole food from a food bank
Islamophobia is the big story today, that is what our world is supposed to be all about.

How did Steve survive in the military? Maybe never in combat? In the U.S. Army I believe he would have been fragged. Hundreds of chickenshet U.S. officers and non-coms were.
Veeery few trucks from the convoys have made it to parliament. They will try to find a way in today.
Truckers that are here were out in full force this morning picking up garbage and bagging it. The streets are mostly very clean and it’s hard to even find dog crap let alone much else on the ground.
Not as many people walking around right now but still quite a few out. I’ve seen lots of reporters with strategically placed cameras to catch as few trucks and people in the shots as possible. They are being heckled a bit by people telling them to tell the truth but overall pretty mild.
I haven’t seen the war memorial blocked off yet, I took a stroll through about an hour ago as I’m parked right in front of it.
Seems the media is really disappointed that the memorial for Islamophobia isn't a go because of the angry mob. They are struggling to find targets, but they continue to bring up the war memorial and how it was defaced by the angry mob, but I remember Nashville said he was camped out beside the memorial.
Nashville; Morning sir, thanks once again for checking in.
Whilst perusing the inner webs this morning to see if any balanced media other than perhaps cousin Ezra's Rebel News could be found, low and behold from India we get this not totally unbiased video.
A few things struck me about that, the first of which it really didn't paint the Crown Prince in an altogether favorable light.
The second is that indeed it would seem the world is watching, I mean our entire population is a couple smaller cities in India right?
Anyways sir, thanks again for the updates and all the best.
673; Morning to you sir, I hope you're getting a bit of milder temps like we are and you're all well.
If I'm putting up too many videos, I'll ask forgiveness now and you can tell me to stop.
Here's one from the Sun UK that showed some FN folks drumming up front - again they didn't get the memo that it was a white supremacist rally one supposes?
They show how big it was too, unlike Evan Solomon and David Akin who continue to tow the party line I see. No surprise there though really.
Anyways from the Sun UK - the world is watching Shiny Pony and they now see what we've seen all along.
I see the fake news CBC, that Steve loves to use as a credible news source, is now claiming that Russia organized and is being the trucker freedom demonstration
“I do ask that because given Canada’s support of Ukraine, in this current crisis with Russia, I don’t know if it’s far fetched to ask but there is concern that Russian actors could be continuing to fuel things, as this as this protest grows, but perhaps even instigating it from from the outset.” Mendicino seemingly dismissed her baseless allegation but did not confirm or deny – deferring rather to other Canadian officials to eventually answer the question.
Mendicino did admit, however, that the government is “watching” the protesters “very carefully.”
The spin machine is in full gear.
“Again, I’m gonna defer to our partners in the public safety the of trained officials and experts in that area. What I can tell you is that we do have courses on site right now who are watching the conduct of this convoy very carefully and we’re providing direction and guidance to residents to ensure that there is a peaceful protest, but at the same time, providing direction and guidance to residents.
ribka; Top of the morning to you sir, I hope you're seeing more sun than we're getting - nothing new for us in winter but we still miss it - and that all in your world are well.
I tend to forget that some of my fellow Canadians still take some of what is said on our mainstream media - CBC, CTV and Global - at face value.
It is my hope and prayer that part of the positive outcome of this movement will be other folks beginning to question the narrative - script in many instances really - and ask themselves just why that might be happening.
The other positive outcome that I see already is that the rest of the world gets to see Crown Prince and Minions Inc. exposed for what they truly are.
Personally I was very happy to see First Nations, Asian, Caribbean, South Asian - you name it - folks shown supporting it. Anyone looking at that and still believing it's a white supremacist movement are, well wrong!
As I've said to a few other people and on another Canuck forum I'm on, I don't for one moment believe this was a simple vax/no vax issue with the truckers. It's much, much more and goes much deeper than any of the media are covering.
Anyways I'm just one old guy who has studied history and people for my entire life, but have a degree in absolutely nothing, so there is that too.
Regardless, I will continue to pray and hope for a positive outcome for not only Canada, but our planet as it does appear the planet is watching us.
Good point Dwayne........it is encouraging to see the FN out in support, perhaps it will spread to this side of the hump. Its the unity the Governments detest, unified against what can best be described as oppression.
Here's what CTV and CBC are saying. The night was quiet. CBC didn't change their story much from yesterday. CTV is reporting that police are investigating a few incidents. There is no indication when the protest will end.
Protests against COVID-19 mandates could stretch on, officials say Thousands descended on Parliament Hill Saturday to protest COVID-19 mandates CBC News
Police say they'll continue to keep a close eye on Ottawa's downtown following Saturday's large protest against COVID-19 public health mandates, with the city's police chief hinting demonstrations may not wrap up this weekend.
Police estimated as many as 10,000 people could arrive by the end of the day, but did not give an official figure Saturday. (for Wabigoon)
Second day of protests seizes Ottawa, police investigating 'desecration' incidents Christy Somos - CTVNews
Ottawa Police said on Twitter that “several” criminal investigations are underway in relation to acts described by police as “desecration” to several monuments in the capital as well as “threating/illegal/intimidating behaviour to police/city workers and other individuals and damage to a city vehicle.”
Police urged the public to report any incidents directly to the authorities.
According to Steve. Truckers who worked through the deadly pandemic and fed Steve while he hid under his bed sucking his thumb, and his family are now Russian spies and enemies of Canada. Can you believe this communist idiot?
What happened to Canada?

Some people just don’t get it, this is a freedom protest . Not a vax protest. I don’t want to engage in the negativity so I’ll encourage our fellow like thinking patriots to ignore it.

I saw a clip on the local news feed where the press was talking to a woman about the anti-vax protest and she said "This is a pro Freedom demonstration, not an anti-vax protest. Please stop calling it an anti-vax protest."
Punk ass truedeau taking a knee in 2020 in front of Parliament with thousands in a show of solidarity with BLM rioters in the states, while they burn, loot and murder.
Here are some people at Parliament who are texting their observations back to the National Post.
Freedom Convoy 2022 live updates: Donations pour into homeless shelter beset by protesters It's Day 2 on Sunday of the protest against the federal Liberal government, vaccine mandates and COVID-19 restrictions - Christopher Nardi, Sharon Kirkey, Swikar Oli
It’s sunny and extremely cold once again in Ottawa, where big-rigs remain parked near Parliament this morning and the city is bracing for another day of Freedom Convoy protests. Police said “large crowds” roamed the sidewalks and occupied the streets overnight, but there was neither violence nor arrests.
Protestors can expect much heavier security today around national monuments and particularly the National War Memorial after images of protestors dancing, drinking and even urinating on the memorial outraged Canadians.
This Canadian is a true hero. He's down in the US this weekend and teaming with project veritas shining a light on evil facists and exposing corrupt mouthpieces for the evil facist government like the CBC. You cannot unswallow a red pill
Canada June 2020 when BLM terrorists were burning down cities. Trudeau praised the violence and destruction of Canada

ribka; Good morning again, I hope you're having a brighter day than we are and you're still well.
I'm not sure how long I've been subscribed to Viva/David Vrie but it's been awhile.
He came to my attention prior to me putting up this post in 2020 because he took the Canadian Firearms PAL course so he had a better understanding of what legal gun owners had to go through in order to purchase a firearm up here. Honestly for someone to go through that to self educate themselves garnered my respect.
I want to say he's still not a firearm owner or shooter by most definitions, but he does appear to be still trying to learn the truth on subjects as completely as possible before rendering an opinion on them.
For any fellow Canucks reading this, Runkle of the Bailey is part of the CCFR, has his own court challenge against the feds regarding the current attempt to confiscate many of our firearms and overall is the best source of Canadian firearms law I've found. Subscribe and support if you like what you see.
Anyways ribka, thanks for posting up David's video, as I've mentioned before he gave this BC redneck more faith in anything coming out of Quebec than any other single thing in the last few years. Folks that know me will understand that's the highest praise this used to be part time cowboy can give.
CBC...cross country checkup is coming on in a few minutes. TV and radio,, going to be hilarious. It will give you the heads up as to the angle Trudeau and the globalists will adhere too. 1:00 PST.
When the CBC finds fault with the war memorial or the Terry Fox memorial being defaced, how do they conclude it was freedom rally members, they could of been Trudeau supporters or globalist sympathizers? anyone could of done that. The same can be said for flags that they may deem inappropriate, whatever that means.
Cross country checkup is a complete hit job on the freedom rally, and here you have the very scum that got "us" into this mess and have played a leading role, the "media". Who in the fugg are these experts they have taking up all the air time? LOL.......right in front of the entire Country.
Trudeau is going to make it about race, white, radicals, Conservatives, gun owners, anti immigration, meanwhile.......... uplifting another segment of the populace.

Im surprised that Steve hasn't grabbed his trusty 303 and starting shooting dangerous terrrorist truckers and their supporters
You have to appreciate the enemies of freedom laying everything out right in front for the entire Country to see. Anyone that believes this shyte is fool LOL. Of course I am referring to cross country checkup.
I see the Communist Broadcasting Cabal ( CBC) has censored all comments on their social media. The CBC, funded by Canadian taxpayers, censors and shuts down any freedom or basic human expression in Canada.
House to resume sitting Monday despite convoy blocking access to Parliament Protestors say they are willing to stay in Ottawa for months until government health orders are repealed Canadian Press
The House of Commons will resume sitting tomorrow after a six-week holiday break despite convoy protestors and vehicles blocking access to Parliament, according to CBC.
MPs have the option to join the session virtually or in person.
Convoy organizer Patrick King said truckers would not be leaving Ottawa after this weekend and were planning to remain on Parliament Hill until all COVID-19 public health measures were eliminated and the Liberal Party was “resigned, gone and abolished.”
“We’re going to stay as long as it takes,” King told the Post’s Christopher Nardi during an interview in a downtown Ottawa hotel on Sunday.
As of Sunday evening, a GoFundMe account for Freedom Convoy 2022 has raised close to $9 million from 110,000 contributors. The money is intended to cover the cost of fuel and “hopefully” food and lodging for protesters in Ottawa. GoFundMe released $1 million from the fund on Sunday to cover fuel costs.
Protestors say they are willing to stay in the capital for months until their demands to repeal provincial and territorial public health orders are met.
I was standing on parliament this evening just taking everything in. I was approached by two officers. One officer was bilingual and struck up a conversation with me. We started with the general small talk, where I was from, etc. I asked him how this protest was compared to most and he was happy to say it’s been very good. “A few minor things” but that was all. I asked him about the garbage and he said while it’s not the cleanest he’s seen (out of hundreds of protests), it’s by far the biggest protest he’s seen at parliament and for the size of it, has been one of the cleanest. He was smiling throughout our conversation and even described how his wife has been following this protest through global news channels and has been excited in showing him all that’s happening.
There’s this push by MSM that we’re terrible people for being here and we’re being threatening to everyone and everything but I have not found an officer that can corroborate what the news is saying. There will always be something to go wrong when this amount of people get together and especially when you add alcohol but what I have seen has mostly been very respectful… I mean, unless you're trudeau…
Your prayers are greatly appreciated. We need wisdom, strength and peace over every individual here protesting. The more peaceful we are while the more MSM and trudeau bash us, the better for our cause. I smile with every false article knowing that what is really happening here is making it out on social media. I have felt so much joy and peace and a complete lack of anger which has been the complete opposite of how I’ve felt for most of the last 6/7 years.
Please pray for the world as well. They are all looking at us to win this fight. If we win here, we win for every one. I can’t think what would happen if we lost. It really isn’t an option. So keep fighting in every way you can. No act is too small as it takes many pieces to build a puzzle.
Nashville; Thanks for the response and encouragement.
It's my privilege to pray for you all for sure. I know I'm not the only one either by a long, long stretch.
I too feel that there's a lot at stake and a lot of factors play at present.
Regardless of that Nashville, I've come to believe and be at peace with the thought that if we truly are servants, then we're not in control and it will be God's will that happens.
I pray for wisdom for myself and everyone involved in any way in order to know what we're supposed to do with that though, you know?
Oh, I can't make the link work sorry, but I am technically challenged on the best day sir.
It's my privilege to pray for you all for sure. I know I'm not the only one either by a long, long stretch.
No Sir you aren’t…..I’ve been thinking about your fellow countrymen and respect that are trying to make a positive difference through peaceful means.
I pray not only for the safety of those patriots involved but also that their actions aren’t in vain. All peaceful options should be exhausted first because what comes next will be irrevocable.
The Trudeau’s, Bidens, Faucis, etc are in serious need of the same treatment that General Custer’s ears received from the Squaws after the battle of the Greasy Grass….so that they can hear…except I don’t care if it’s done to them alive or after they’ve descended into hell.
We need to boycott anything that pushes this Vaccine and stop supporting any of the liberal cooperations,organizations,etc as much as we can.We are at war!
We need to boycott anything that pushes this Vaccine and stop supporting any of the liberal cooperations,organizations,etc as much as we can.We are at war!
Absolutely. up yours Canadian tire, never going to see me again, I will support a smaller, local merchant instead.
Cool^^^^^^^^^^^^ Just heard....Trudeau tests hot for Covid LOL.....he has had three shots that I am aware of, all on live tv,,,,you can make this stuff up, but I don't think he did lololol.
Everything this Liberal government has done under Trudeau is to deliver us up for the globalist plan for one World government. His plan to remove our guns from the hands of responsible Citizens is pure evil, is there anyone who thinks otherwise??
This Liberal party is nothing like the party of yesterday, not even close, pure evil.
An entire weekend—no arrests? No tear gas? No burning buildings? I saw some large crowds—only in Canada eh? I’ve seen more damage done at a hockey tournament in Geraldton!
Interesting to know, there is an unrelated protest in Vancouver, it is in protest to old growth logging. They have blocked the entire 3 lanes of a major artery out of Vancouver, the iron workers bridge?? Lets see how they are reported on, the media has always wiped their azz LOL
Just as we thought, Trudeau with media will continue his only defense, to divide the people until he gets enough public support to remove them. He is in a corner and has exposed himself and shown his belly for the entire Country.
Fake and phoney, he continues to say the best way to get out of the pandemic is to get Vaccinated LOLOL
We have our foot on their throat, don't let them go.
673; I've been doing some other stuff in the house today and listening to Viva/David with headphones.
We'll call it a weakness on my part today, but I can't even listen to the Crown Prince anymore and as you know I've refused to say or even type his name.
Again to be clear it's not hate, as I'm instructed not to hate the individual but can hate the actions and so help me that's where I am with him.
On a brighter note, I watched Nashville's BIL's video and was very much heartened to hear his positive interactions with Quebecers.
As well on Viva there were piles of Quebecois and it seemed half of Ontario showed up there too - which means I need to reassess my deep rooted bias towards a bunch of things.
Im surprised at the number of Quebecois there too. Good sign

Well, let's see what the media is saying today. You can boil both these reports down to this - You've made your point. It's time to go home. The question is, will they? Some will. Others have to work. But what about the hangers on? Decisions will be made to move people along, should they not go voluntarily. Pretty standard for any protest, anywhere in the world. How will things play out in Ottawa?
Take note of what the Ottawa mayor has instructed his staff to do WRT the GoFundMe money. It's in the second article. ---
Ottawa mayor says ticketing, towing protesters could incite them Hotel association president says protesters rebooked rooms for next weekend CBC News
Road closures and vehicle arrivals started Friday, swelling to an estimated crowd of 8,000 people Saturday, according to police. About 3,000 people rallied around Parliament Hill Sunday, according to the city's emergency and protective services manager.
On CBC Radio's Ottawa Morning, Watson (Ottawa's mayor - Steve) repeated his call Monday for protesters to stop disrupting the city and go home, but said the city is taking direction from police. Leadership has to weigh if stepping in will cause a "flare-up."
"The [police] chief … has to assess almost on an hour-by-hour basis: by intervening in this particular street or this particular area, is it going to cause more harm than good, and is it going to throw gas on a fire?" Watson said.
'You've made your point:' Ottawa mayor urges 'Freedom Convoy' protesters to leave Michael Woods & Josh Pringle - CTV News Ottawa
excerpt
Watson stopped short of saying police should issue tickets or begin towing the trucks.
“I think what we have to do is allow police to do their jobs so it doesn’t turn into a bigger issue with greater violence.”
But he (the Ottawa mayor - Steve) said he has asked city staff to look into whether the city can tap into the protesters' GoFundMe campaign, which has raised more than $8 million, to cover those costs, though he admitted it "may be a longshot."
“It shouldn’t be up to Ottawa taxpayers to pay for the kind of disruptions we’re facing right now,” he said.
I think I just heard Trudeau say he fully supported Black Lives Matter but could not support these truckers. I was under the impression BLM supported rioting and buildings burnt and people actually killed—perhaps I got it wrong? It’s apparent to me the Truckers are wasting their time in Ottawa—they should head to the border crossings like they’ve done at Coutts, Alberta.
still proving that you're a weak khhhunt and useful idiot for Trudeau.
Remember when the CBC praised BLM terrorists when they were burning down Canada? No wonder anyone with an IQ above 67 does not pay attention to Facist news
Take note that the discredited CBC is not even showing a live cast of the peaceful freedom rally. They don't want the truth out to the world

On CBC Radio's Ottawa Morning, Watson (Ottawa's mayor - Steve) repeated his call Monday for protesters to stop disrupting the city and go home, but said the city is taking direction from police. Leadership has to weigh if stepping in will cause a "flare-up."
"The [police] chief … has to assess almost on an hour-by-hour basis: by intervening in this particular street or this particular area, is it going to cause more harm than good, and is it going to throw gas on a fire?" Watson said.

excerpt
Watson stopped short of saying police should issue tickets or begin towing the trucks.
“I think what we have to do is allow police to do their jobs so it doesn’t turn into a bigger issue with greater violence.”
But he (the Ottawa mayor - Steve) said he has asked city staff to look into whether the city can tap into the protesters' GoFundMe campaign, which has raised more than $8 million, to cover those costs, though he admitted it "may be a longshot."
“It shouldn’t be up to Ottawa taxpayers to pay for the kind of disruptions we’re facing right now,” he said.

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he is not “intimidated” by members of the trucker protest who “hurl insults and abuse” workers or “steal food from the homeless” over the weekend and will not meet with organizers.
“Over the past few days, Canadians were shocked, and frankly, disgusted by the behaviour displayed by some people protesting in our nation’s capital,” Trudeau said during a press conference Monday in which he came out swinging against some members of this weekend’s massive trucker protest in Ottawa.
“We are not intimidated by those who hurl insults and abuse small business workers and steal food from the homeless. We won’t give in to those who fly racist flags. We won’t cave to those who engage in vandalism or dishonor the memory of our veterans.”
The prime minister also criticized politicians who are “exploiting people’s fears,” though he stopped short of naming anyone.
This is Trudeau’s first public (virtual) appearance since he began isolating following a COVID-19 exposure last Wednesday. Monday morning, he said on Twitter that he had tested positive for the virus and would remain in isolation.

By ANDY BLATCHFORD 07/24/2020 05:00 AM EDT OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, is embroiled in another controversy of his own making that’s inflicting political damage on him and his administration.
The Canadian leader is struggling to contain the rapid spread of a firestorm sparked by his plan to award a sole-source contract to a powerful charity and fueled by revelations that members of his family have been paid hundreds of thousands of dollars in speaking fees by the organization over the past half decade. The dustup also threatens to cost Trudeau his trusted finance minister.
Trudeau’s trouble began building momentum a few weeks ago after his government announced the deal to pay WE Charity up to C$43 million to administer a C$912-million student grant program as part of Canada’s Covid-19 response. The group works on international development projects and classroom programs, mostly in the U.S. and Canada, that teach youth about civic engagement.
The public and parliamentary reaction in Canada to the news and further revelations of speaking fees and travel expenses paid to family members of Trudeau and Finance Minister Bill Morneau has been swift and harsh.
Polls suggest the still-emerging controversy around WE Charity has already chewed away at Trudeau’s approval ratings, which saw a lift after the start of the pandemic. Rivals have demanded Morneau’s resignation and the fallout risks nudging opponents closer to defeating Trudeau’s minority Liberal government, triggering another election. Canada's ethics commissioner has launched investigations into Trudeau and Morneau.
Trudeau has shown he can survive scandals, including images of him wearing brownface 20 years ago that surfaced during last year's election campaign. The ethics commissioner found last year that Trudeau broke conflict-of-interest law after the prime minister and his staff repeatedly urged his former attorney general to reach a plea-bargain deal with the SNC-Lavalin engineering firm, which faced corruption charges.
Trudeau also weathered blowback from a 2018 trip to India when he had to rescind a dinner invitation he’d issued to a Sikh extremist who had been accused of attempting to murder an Indian politician.
In late 2018, the ethics commissioner also concluded Trudeau violated violated ethics law over two all-expenses-paid family trips at the Aga Khan's residence in the Bahamas.

People at the protest are concerned that Trudeau paid anti freedom rioters to come in and start false flag violence to discredit and smear the truckers
This is Ephesians 4:18 - Intellectually they are in the dark, and they are estranged from the life of God, because of the ignorance which is the consequence of closed minds.
Which means - Always listen to every voice, not just the ones you want to hear. --- Here's what they are reporting about Ottawa in the UK.
Freedom Convoy: Trudeau calls trucker protest an 'insult to truth'
Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has slammed protests in the capital city against Covid-19 vaccine mandates as "an insult to memory and truth".
Protestors are demonstrating for a third consecutive day over a cross-border vaccine mandate for truckers imposed by the Liberal government.
Ottawa police asked the public to avoid the downtown area on Monday, citing "traffic, noise and safety issues".
Some downtown stores, including a shopping mall, will also be closed.
Demonstrators at the so-called Freedom Convoy have been mostly peaceful but the behaviour of some members of the crowd has been strongly criticised.
People at the protest are concerned that Trudeau paid anti freedom rioters to come in and start false flag violence to discredit and smear the truckers
Likely the ones who hung a flag on the Terry Fox monument? or pizzed next to the war memorial? This gets cycled every 10 minutes on every media outlet lol.
Take the flag off, then shovel the one scoop of yellow snow from the war memorial (was probably a dog that did it anyways) and everything should be ok.
Trudeau already has paid anti-freedom supporters in every media outlet in this Country.
Trudeau says......the cross border mandate is to keep everyone safe. Which of you actually believe this? .......please come out and stick your head up.
I see Europe is ending Covid restrictions and Trudeau's big pandemic fraud is finally over. His political buddies made hundreds of millions off of his scam.
I foresee Trudeau serving some serious prison time for his criminal actions
It is interesting what the foreign press have to say when looking in at Canadian Media -- imagine if they would have seen the CBC "journalist" saying the convoy was the result of Russian influence.
The media seems to have taken on the role of "influencing the populace" and propagating the Governments narrative via deception, and manipulation of simple facts, and it needs to be exposed.
Remember when Castro's son , the part time art teacher and moron Justin Trudeau, said he admired a Communist dictatorship and a slave labor based country like China over freedom based nations?
Members of the Asian-Canadian community are demanding an apology from Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau, following his comments on Thursday expressing admiration for China's "basic dictatorship."
A round table of people from China, Taiwan, Tibet and Korea — all of whom say they suffered at the hands of China's dictatorship — said they were insulted by Trudeau's remarks, made on Thursday at a women's event.
The Liberal leader was asked which nation he admired most. He responded: "There's a level of admiration I actually have for China. Their basic dictatorship is actually allowing them to turn their economy around on a dime."
That statement was upsetting for people who say they were wrongly imprisoned or tortured by the Chinese government for speaking out for democracy.
"Can I use the word 'foolish'"? said one member of the Federation for a Democratic China, characterizing Trudeau's words. The political group advocates for the democratization of China.
'A bit silly'
"It seems to be that he's not well-informed," another member of the round table said of Trudeau.
Federal NDP Leader Thomas Mulcair also reacted with surprise to the Liberal leader's words, calling it "a bit silly" to laud China rather than to praise democratic values.
At a press conference on Saturday in Quebec, Trudeau said his comment was a reflection on a growing economy.
Canadian members of the Federation for a Democratic China say that along with an apology from the Liberal leader, they also want an opportunity to meet face-to-face so he can listen to some of their personal stories of persecution at the hands of the Chinese government.
Plenty of foolish people out there who are ready to accept anything that the MSM puts in front of them. I have no doubt there are plenty of false flags flying around the reporting on the trucker’s protest.
I don’t have a big circle of friends, but it does include some a lesbian couple who I rented a room from after my 2nd divorce. They’ve had an awakening in the last few years, got their rPAL and hunting licences, and are now acquiring firearms under my guidance (at least, now that they’ve made some totally unsuitable purchases on their own at the poor recommendation of the LGS). One is a trucker and the other is a manager at the trucking company. They’re fully on board with the protest and are becoming more…deplorable every day. And not shy about speaking out about it.
The media seems to have taken on the role of "influencing the populace" and propagating the Governments narrative via deception, and manipulation of simple facts, and it needs to be exposed.
I live in most northern Maine. The local news reports on happenings in Canada. Last night WAGM reported on the desecration of monuments and the hate rhetoric. It's not a surprise given the quality of their usual reporting. The fourth estate is the fifth column.
I look at the Conservative leadership thusly...............I have been an O'Toole supporter from the beginning, casting my vote his way, Mr Poliviere didn't run, otherwise I may have voted for him.
That said, the strategy the Liberals (Butts) are taking it would seem it to attack the Conservatives leadership, it all they have. OK fine, is it going to work?.... maybe. I ponder the thought of the Conservatives infighting and exposing weaknesses that were otherwise manageable within their own caucus, in short....losing the next election, which could come anytime.
The Liberals have 100% support from the NDP and media, and the Conservatives simply do not. I don't understand why O'Toole sits on the fence, I can't stand that and I am not alone.
If Pierre Poliviere were to run I would surely cast my vote his way, but lets see what happens this week.
673; Morning sir, I see your light is on and suspect the fire is lit and the coffee poured up there too. Hope all is well in your world.
As I recall now, Pierre was starting a family and didn't want to have that time away from the new baby.
He's been a lifetime politician after getting out of university - there is that - but I've been following him for maybe 15 years and so far he's not disappointed me as far as I could tell.
I was at one time more hopeful for Michelle Garner-Rempel, but now she's sort of faded out of the limelight and she did a wee bit of virtue signaling one time that made me wince. That said I make mistakes daily - heck I got that first one out of the way today already!
Candice Bergen is a southern Manitoba lady who I've always thought was pretty tough minded. She might tick the right boxes?
Leslyn Lewis ticked a bunch of the boxes but was thought of as too far right, so there you go.
As far as O'Toole goes I felt he did fairly well yesterday as he's not the pit bull Pierre is and neither was Stephen Harper. He used pit pulls and that's not a bad thing for a leader to do in my view.
When I saw Prince Hide n Seek I wasn't surprised by the tone and rhetoric, I just hope our fellow Canadians can hear how much he despises everyone else other than his little circle. Things like Ezra and Viva Frei wandering the streets interviewing Ottawa citizens and police don't help the left narrative, but again we'll see.
Jagmeet did exactly what I thought he'd do in all this as he's a pretty face paid to read a script. Too bad he doesn't come off as believable, but he's no Jack Layton or even a Mulcair for that matter.
Blanchet and the Bloc might be misreading the crowd too, we'll see. I was shocked at the number of Quebecois Viva interviewed - in a fantastic way for sure.
For me after seeing half of Ontario show up there, I don't feel as much like it's only a western issue anymore and that's not nothing either, you know?
Anyways, I keep on saying we'll see, but lots of the media from outside Canada has been pretty unflattering to Hide n Seek, so let's hope this all works for good.
In the meantime I'll continue to pray for the likes of Nashville and those there and truly for us all. We need some divine guidance if not intervention.
I’m all in for Leslyn Lewis. We need a clear choice, no more near-beer, plus she can provide a reprieve from the “old, white guys” club. She takes away Sparkle Sock’s feminist cred, plus the race card. And, she’s smart as hell, something else Turdeau can’t match.
Watching global bc this morning, I have never seen so much lying bs in my life, and I have seen alot of lying bs. They are saying the protestors are anti jewish and equate what is happening in Ottawa with what happened to the jews.
The protestors have brainwashed people into hating the jews LOL. Is there a more pathetic angle??
Butts is going full out and when he figures they have the upperhand they will move in and remove the protestors, then all hell is gonna break loose. They have all their minions under their control with their "mass formation psychosis" we have been warned about. People actually believe what they see on tv, they seriously believe the protestors are pure evil.
Regarding how we're going to get the truth out, I see this morning on YouTube that VivaFrei is live from Ottawa now.
There are a bunch of people watching him over 6000 already so perhaps more than CBC, CTV and Global get?
Best.
Dwayne
I missed David yesterday!!!?? That sucks. He walked right by me here (8:07, white dodge/utility trailer, parked at the war memorial) and I didn’t even know…
I was unable to do any updates yesterday as I ran out of data. 15GBs of data used up in just a week trying to cover what is happening here.
So yesterday I decided I just needed to relax for a bit. A lack of sleep was catching up with me and being a guy that hates being in a crowd I needed some alone time. I brought a few books with me and started into one. Bannock and Beans by Bob White was written by a friends’ great uncle. It follows his account of the Bedaux expedition of the 1930’s in northern BC. I spent a few hours reading and relaxing.
Through my BILs church he was connected to a relative of one of the attendees of his church, who lives in Quebec. He got in contact with said relative and they invited us to their home in Gatineau for dinner and shower. We walked over the bridge on the east side of parliament and had them pick us up. We were able to have showers and do a load of laundry before sitting with the family for a lasagna dinner (which was excellent). We sat and got to know each other for a few hours and we talked about what is happening and how the news is trying to hide what is actually happening here. They drive by here everyday to watch and stay informed. Unfortunately the evening passed too quickly and we had to return to Ottawa. They drove us most of the way back to where we are parked and said they will stop by this evening to say hi once more. We had an offer to join them snow showing in Quebec if we can find the time. I’m really hoping we can.
After returning to the trailer we decided to call it an early evening. I walked a couple blocks to the nearest facilities and on my return, remembered I wanted to talk to Jay. Jay is another young guy here from Edmonton that I met on Saturday evening when we were stuck in traffic just before where we are currently parked. He caught a ride to Ottawa with a pilot truck as he felt he needed to be here though he wasn’t sure why. A bible in one had and a mouth like a sailor, he’s an interesting guy to say the least. When Jay heard about the young girl dancing on the lone soldier, he said he immediately knew why he was here. Jay has been sitting on a hockey bag for two days now lightly playing a drum in front of the memorial to keep an eye on it. All night long he stays awake guarding the memorial and playing the drum! He has a hotel room that he could be staying in, warm and dry and yet he won’t leave his post. If he leaves to go to the bathroom he makes sure someone else will stand guard in his absence. The feelings this man wells up inside all is truly amazing. I’m happy to say that everyone around is taking care of him as much as he will let them.
I also spoke with a Québécois last night, standing at the memorial. His family immigrated to Canada from Venezuela when he was two years old. He is here every day to document what is happening such as truckers picking up all the garbage, shovelling the sidewalks at parliament and cleaning the statues and sharing it with the world. He knows where this country is headed under trudy as he grew up following and learning about the destruction of his birth country. He’s extremely proud of what is happening and said even he is surprised by the turn out from Quebec as they normally won’t even celebrate Canada day. To see 50% of the people here are from Quebec makes him proud, along with the rest of us.
I stated it before but I will again. Very few trucks from the convoys have actually made it in to down town. Most are stuck miles out from here and have not even seen parliament. The turn out of people you see here is almost entirely locals from Ottawa and Gatineau. This is so much bigger than we can show you because of this. We’re spread out all over.
Keep up the support in every way you can. Turn off MSM, remove your masks, wave your flags and spread the truth. This ends when the people ALL stand together and say it does.
673; Indeed it seems to be they're rattled and are proceeding with the full court press of lies - no surprise there.
What did pleasantly surprise me though was a report this morning that member of Ottawa police services were delivering hot food to the truckers last night.
Huh?
Then he went on to thank Toronto, Durham and a couple other police services for their professionalism and courtesy.
Double huh?
Butts is earning the moniker of "Evil Minion" for sure and certain, but we knew that for years so no surprises there.
Again I recall the immortal words of Allan Rock when more than 10,000 firearms owners protested on Parliament Hill - more or less it was "We don't count heads. We know what's best for Canada"
Truly that's it in a nutshell 673.
They believe they know what's best for us and will be tough to convince otherwise. I'd imagine they're pretty fond of the power too, you know?
Nashville; Morning sir, thanks so much for the update!
It's interesting how often I've been stopped in whatever I've been doing or awakened in the night and been prompted to pray for you all - but you and your BIL specifically.
I'm emphatically not "that guy" either Nashville so this is a fairly new thing for me too that I'm not used to - or comfortable with, but there it is anyways you know?
So thanks again and indeed I'm praying for you guys that God's will be done and you/we/us have peace with that outcome.
Nashville and to all. Having been in a "situation" against overwhelming odds, I understand the feeling a long drawn out "situation" can do to a persons thinking process, but know this.........God is on your side, and the team is praying for you all, there should be no doubt.
Now they want to Vaccinate your children, outrageous.
In my view, we have a foot on evils throat, that is why they are coming so hard with outrageous lies. Last evening Tucker Carlson devoted 25 min to the trucker protest, slamming Trudeau and friends. We need to keep up up with our message and let them hear it repeatedly, like they do to us.
If nothing else, a gathering like this should signal to the self-styled "elites" that they are dangerously disconnected from the people. Many jurisdictions around the world have demonstrated that life with freedom of choice is possible so it is becoming increasingly difficult for them to keep their narrative alive. GD
What "they" are most afraid of is the unifying of the citizenry, "they" have spent all of their time dividing us, now we represent everything "they" hate, a unified populace is their worst fear, book it. We will become un-controllable.
The news website True North is offering a $6500 reward for whoever can identify the Nazi flag holder. They are receiving photos of this person from various angles. This guy needs to be identified.
I see pfizer is trying to get approval in the USA for their Vaccine for children under 5. It begs the question...why? If the jab only protects against extreme illness, then why give it to this age group?
The signal that authorities are ready to take action is apparent in the article.
Ontario premier to 'Freedom Convoy' protesters in Ottawa: 'Move on' Michael Woods & Ted Raymond, CTV News Ottawa
excerpts -
Ontario's premier is urging the demonstrators associated with the "Freedom Convoy" to leave downtown Ottawa, saying they need to let residents return to living their lives
Ottawa's former police chief says officers' negotiations with organizers will be key to ending the demonstration.
"In my opinion, this is no longer a protest. This is an occupation of our city," Charles Bordeleau told CTV News at Noon. "I've never seen anything like this in my career."
Bordeleau said he thinks police have done a "tremendous job" managing the situation so far given its volatility, and face a "delicate balance" in dealing with the demonstrators.
“The risk of things going south on you with a large crowd that is very passionate and committed to their cause is very high,” said Bordeleau, who was Ottawa’s police chief from 2012 to 2019. “So they have to be very surgical as to when and where they will escalate their efforts to start removing vehicles and effecting arrests.
Bordeleau said once police reduce the size of the group to a “small core of individuals,” they can then escalate their level of force and “forcibly remove them from the downtown core.”
I find those that talk about elites are living a long ways from the cities. Canada is still small population wise. It's good chance if you grew up in middle class, scrapping by to go to university on student loans , you knew some of these players personally. Elite my.... I could buy hot water for 3 cents and bring a tea bag from home.That was my coffee break at SFU. The middle class was a lot larger in those days and made up of a lot that are now working class. BTW I looked at where that was going and got a trade. And did better than a university prof.
CTV....horrible news coverage ^^^^^^^^^^....so what? I have read and viewed likely 100 news outlets from all over the World on the protest, and the only ones that support Trudeau are the fake news in Canada. The truckers have already won, and the longer it go's on the worse Trudeau looks, that's why he wants it to end. Trudeau is finished as the leader of the Liberal party, his mental disorder is getting the best of him now and is unable to answer questions without being coached.
Strange you say that, my wife on hearing Trudeau's new conference thought he sounded better than he had ever before. If you think everything is fake maybe you need a reality check or my be some new drugs.

Good afternoon, Dwayne! I hope all is well in your neck of the woods. Your comments about the Conservative leadership are interesting, for sure. My take on the issue is that we don't have a conservative party in Canada. We have some left-wing parties, and a centrist party. I really wanted to see Derek Sloan become leader. Then we would have some actual conservative leadership. Leslyn Lewis would have been a better choice, as well, IMO. The notion that Lewis or Sloan are too far right for the Conservative party really illustrates the ideological drift to the left that our nation has been undergoing over the last few years. Someone needs to stand and pull the country back to the center (as a start), by pulling consistently to the right.
Regarding how we're going to get the truth out, I see this morning on YouTube that VivaFrei is live from Ottawa now.
There are a bunch of people watching him over 6000 already so perhaps more than CBC, CTV and Global get?

The turn out of people you see here is almost entirely locals from Ottawa and Gatineau. This is so much bigger than we can show you because of this. We’re spread out all over.
Keep up the support in every way you can. Turn off MSM, remove your masks, wave your flags and spread the truth. This ends when the people ALL stand together and say it does.
Do not comply, cheers guys.
Nash,
God bless you, sir. Hold the course, and stay strong. You and your compatriots in freedom are in my prayers. Know that for every one of you that could make the trip, there are likely 100 of us who support you, but couldn't be there in person ourselves.
Jordan; Good afternoon to you my friend, I trust you're all well.
Please understand that my opinion on how the Conservatives are doing is based upon the situation as I understand it to be at present, not how I would like it to be.
For sure and certain O'Toole and Peter MacKay are centrist leaders and the party is also centrist at this point.
I think that's the draw of Bernier now too - that he's an actual right wing candidate.
Unfortunately at this point in our nation's history I don't think that there's enough support to get a right of center party into power.
Not with the way the electoral districts are set up. As we both know a single vote in PEI is equal to 4 votes here in BC. Those are tough odds.
Depending upon how some of this shakes out, we might be ready for Quebec and Ontario to swing right of center and if that'd happen I'd be overjoyed.
Anyways to be clear again, it isn't what I prefer the situation to be, but how I perceive it based upon the last couple of election results.
Strange you say that, my wife on hearing Trudeau's new conference thought he sounded better than he had ever before. If you think everything is fake maybe you need a reality check or my be some new drugs.
I hope downwindtracker1 wasn't as much a spinless shill as you.
I took your comments to be an assessment of the situation, not your ideal. No worries there.
I agree. I think there is enough support for a conservative party, but the game is rigged and becoming more-so with each electoral tweak made by the Liberals. The trucker convoy is eye-opening concerning all the support conservative and/or libertarian-minded people are providing. Dictatorial people and totalitarian sympathizers want us to feel alone. This convoy has shown the whole world that we are not. I know you know this, Dwayne, just pointing it out.
I like Bernier, too, but the PPC didn't have a candidate in my riding in the last election.
Jordan; Thanks for the reply and confirmation we're on the same page.
I keep on saying, "We'll see" as there's a whole lot of balls in the air now. Most of which I'm not going to speculate on open forum about.
Honestly other than face to face there's too many leaks in the system anymore isn't there?
For the sake of my children and yours too, I hope this is a positive turning point.
The east now sees how deeply troubled the west is and for that matter the west gets to see that some of the east is less than enchanted with the antics too.
As I think you know I was involved a wee bit in the Republic of Western Canada movement back in the day... so that's where my head and heart lie Jordan - BUT - if we can get enough of the remainder of our nation on board I'm open to talk for sure.
The rest of the world is watching and so is the entire country.
When I check into legacy media newsfeeds on YouTube they're getting roasted alive Jordan and they have to have some folks there that understand the ramifications of the situation.
As well, there were 125,000 views on David Frei's video... think about that, you know? One Montreal lawyer wandering around with a camera gets more tuning in than some legacy media news..
I'd opine he's got a higher degree of credibility among viewers too.
The real pickle though is how radical the responses will be from those in power, because only the extremely naive will think they're going to quietly shuffle off and give up power. Truly that's a huge reason I believe the truckers have such traction and support, because people are rightfully concerned that things will not return to normal because those in power are rather pleased with the new normal.
If I am wrong about my assessment Jordan, the happiest person about my being wrong will be me, that's certain.
Again, we'll see.
All the best to you and thanks for your prayer support too.
Strange you say that, my wife on hearing Trudeau's new conference thought he sounded better than he had ever before. If you think everything is fake maybe you need a reality check or my be some new drugs.
Maybe you should of listened to your poor wife and finished grade school.
Folks might argue the same in our senate, but holy smokes, if that body is supposed to mirror population, then Alberta and BC are getting the shaft.
I wondered what our house looks like, and found it less-well-regionally-sorted (Connecticut, Mississippi, Oklahoma having an advantage of sorts, aside from the low-population outliers).

Anyways to be clear again, it isn't what I prefer the situation to be, but how I perceive it based upon the last couple of election results.
In Canada, senators are appointed by the government in power, and not elected. Only MPs are elected to office.
This was posted earlier, but Canada uses a different electoral system, explained briefly below. I believe that we should elect according to proportional representation, but that isn't the case now. . According to the federal results posted by Elections Canada and found here, last election, the Liberals got 32.6 % of the popular vote. The Conservatives, 33.8%
Canada uses a first past the post system. This is where candidates are elected by a majority within their respective ridings. That does not mean that a party will win based on the total number of votes cast - aka proportional representation. It depends on the population of those ridings. Hence, the last election result where Trudeau's Liberals got less votes than the Conservatives but Trudeau still ended up as PM.
Trudeau promised to change the process to proportional representation, which would reflect the popular vote. He reneged. Had proportional representation been in place last October, the Conservatives would have formed a minority government.
A group of acquaintances drove to Ottawa on Saturday and they were turned back.They were told they could not enter the downtown area and join the protest because they were in a car and not a truck.I heard they turned back stopped for a coffee someplace and returned home to Montreal.
That is funny, like I said previously, the only news outlets on the planet that support Trudeau are the fake news from Canada, but they have to make stuff up because it doesn't exist, thanks for the laugh Dwayne.
City of Ottawa is trying to find any way it can to harass the truckers, including going after the GFM money.
Of course, they didn’t have these kind of concerns when people were pulling down statues and burning building in memory of St. George of Floyd.
Tried to go to the city website to give the mayor crap, but the website is acting up. I wonder if it’s because a bunch of other people are trying to do the same as me.
Good time to boycott Tim Hortons and let them know why … how ignorant do you have to be to refuse service to protesters??
Wherever I go I try to not encourage any of these globalist financed cooperations.I look around and see if I can find an independent or family owned store to go instead and sometimes I succeed.As a small business owner I've been battling it out with these F...ers for 30yrs and still survived.
I have never bought a Tim Horton's coffee in my life, and after finding out their response to the Canadians protesting for freedom, I will boycott them like the other Communist supporters.

What's the story with Tim Hortons? I stop there rarely, they aren't very clean.
What Abe says a couple posts up...I checked into it and yes, some Tim Hortons have been refusing service to truckers/protestors. TH are independently owned so they can do as they please. Language https://www.bitchute.com/video/nwLdUpvEMAEi/
I understand "independently owned" to mean someone who owns the land, building and may have an obligation under contract to sell a brand product for a specified period agreed to in the contract until the contract expires.IMO,anything other than this is a lessee.
I don't support any business that does not support me/us. It smacks of elite-ism and if one takes pause, you can get the same product somewhere else, I will not enter another Canadian tire. I will support the little guy who owns his hardware store and lives and spends his money right here in the community, quite simple really.
They can be identified by being....white, right wing, racist, nazi flag flying, confederate flag flying, fringe type's, gun owning, women hating, men hating, anti gay, and rebel rousing, otherwise I don't know how they know.
Any place that has justin Bieber for their ads is woke anyway. Tim Hortons is owned by pepsi/kfc/tocobell/burgerking. I believe. I'm not inclined to buy their shot anyway.

Some of the entities you mention here are affected very little by mandate because for example....you can walk into a Burger King sit down and have a meal without any passport, yet the restaurant across the road is going broke because you do need a passport etc... so it really smacks of elite-ism, and in my view should be illegal.
They are cashing in big time on the Mandates, no wonder why they want them LOL phoney pricks.
Hey Guys, quick update and clarification on the Tim Hortons thing.
It’s mid week now and of course day time is generally fairly quiet in the way of foot traffic. The evenings pick up and turn back in to a block party kind of feel. We still haven’t heard from nor seen most of the convoy. They’re still stuck away from here and most of us don’t really know when or how they’re going to make it in. There are reports that the “second wave” of people will hit this weekend in a big way, we’re really hoping they do.
Over the past couple days we have started to see more “on the fence” locals. They were angry with us but had the sense to shut off the news and came down to see us in person. They are almost always completely blown away at how different things are from what the news is reporting. The sidewalks have all been shovelled. There isn’t any garbage on the street. The lone soldier has been covered in flowers and has a 24hr guard on it. No one is being harassed around here besides us occasionally and we are trying to support every business we can. Every hotel room seems to be completely booked.
Besides noise and disrupting traffic in a few areas (which many work from home anyway and we are in the commercial section of town, not residential) we haven’t done anything else to cause any issues. Many of the things that MSM is reporting are either completely over exaggerated or false altogether.
Terry fox was dressed up but he’s been dressed up by every other protest, it’s just not an issue if it’s a leftist protest. He was holding a flag upside down which is the symbol of a nation in distress. It’s legal and we are a nation in distress which is why we are here.
Any racist flags wavers are quickly spotted and called out before being run off. They never show their face, always hiding their identity and they carry a backpack with a change of clothes.
I have not been able to find any videos on the war memorial so I cannot comment on that though a guy from Edmonton has now spent three days and three nights guarding the memorial. He’s picked up all the garbage, digging out cigarette butts from the cracks in the paving stones. He sweeps away snow and straightens the flowers. The only time he will leave is to use the facilities in which he leaves someone else on guard.
The cops are not being harassed by anyone on our side and in fact feel more like family standing with us. They walk around and shake hands with those in the grounds. They laugh and joke and help bring food to the truckers or take off down streets of truckers pointing them towards the nearest BBQ happening so they don’t miss out.
Every day we have locals showing up to support us and beg us not to leave. How long will we be here!? Just two weeks… to flatten the curve.
As for Tim hortons. On our way here with the convoy there were a couple reports of individual franchises that were refusing to serve truckers. Outraged, several people called head quarters demanding an explanation. Head quarters condemned any franchise refusing service to anyone and asked us for the locations of those refusing to serve truckers. They let us know that they DO support us and will take care of any franchise not cooperating. Personally I think Tim hortons is the worst restaurant?? in the world. The food is disgusting and the coffee is only slightly better. That being said, there are two locations that I know of in the vicinity of where we are camped. Both locations are serving truckers and have not enforced or even commented on the lack of masks. They don’t ask for passports. Because of the support from Tim hortons I have actually purchased coffee there a couple times now this past week. I even had a long conversation with a young woman working the till at one. She couldn’t believe what the MSM was saying about us as she knew it was all false. She also called out the BS of businesses “not being able to open”. They’re open and haven't had an issue. Their supply trucks could get in and deliver without issue.

Thanks for the update Nashville, from what I can tell, the Tin Horton thing is an Alberta thing. Interesting to hear their response, thank you very much!
Nashville The media is reporting there are only 250 people there, there is virtually nothing but the same stories being cycled, 2 people arrested...there is absolutely nothing on the Alberta roadblock, nothing.
They can only recycle the same things because we haven’t given them anything to report. We run off anyone trying to instigate trouble.
During the day, there’s not a ton of people walking around because unlike our fearless leader, others have to work. The evenings pick up quite a bit and locals are out until midnight many nights. Reports are coming in that this weekend will be big though we will see when we get there. We are hoping the reports hold true.
A friend of my BIL is on his way to the Alberta road block now. He drove from Alberta to Ottawa, spent the weekend and then turned around to head to Coutts. We will be reporting back and forth to each other on why is happening at the two locations once he is there.

Hopefully the media reports it. Hard for Turdeau to play the race card then.
Though they had FN there at the speeches on Saturday and the media missed it.
My opinion only..........the Native people won't be represented until their leadership represents them lol. Other Citizens are likewise if their political leadership is a no show, like now.
So the way around that is the people do it on their own. Native people need to show up on their own if their reps are no shows, they always did before, what is different now? $$
Watching the above Viva Frei is great coverage, interviews a CBC news crew LOLOL
I have never seen Viva Frei before but that was really great watching him interview the CBC , but a highlight was also when the dog went over and pee'd in the park, and he made note, that could of been what happened over at the war memorial, a moment of hilarity
The fellow from a middle eastern country that said something like.. I escaped tyranny only to be enslaved here lol. The unity is a beautiful thing to see, never thought I would see it to be honest.
673; Good afternoon to you my friend, I hope the day's been kind to you and you're all well.
If you're not familiar with Dave Rubin, he's a one time left of center journalist that went to the center and since has been vilified and called all sorts of things like anti Semitic, anti gay, etc. .
Now full disclosure here, he's married to a guy and is of Jewish extraction, so that'd be interesting to be what he's been accused of.
I learned of him when he was touring with Jordan Peterson's lectures and while I don't agree with everything either one of them say, they've made some sense and aren't afraid of tackling taboo subjects.
Lastly we had a bit of a discussion somewhere here on the Canada section about what an "elite" is and I think Dave here supplies at least one definition.
For me it isn't one's background or physical location either as I've been able to get to know a few multi-millionaires quite well and like the rest of us there were good ones and less good ones.
I would opine that when Prince Hide 'n Seek, former minister Morneau, Deputy PM Chrystia Freeland and some other folks were invited to the convention in Davos and many of the organizers and speakers called themselves "elite", that's a fairly good indication they believe they are better than me, isn't it?
Anyways sir, Dave Rubin.
Lastly I'll say this about that. The videos show us a few things, one is how we're being at very least misled by our media here or at worst outright lied to.
The other is that the world very literally is watching so that's an interesting place for us to be at in and of itself.
Again if anyone is led to send up prayers, positive energy or good thoughts across the medicine line, we'll take all we can get.
Another news broadcast from India --- the presenter refers to the Wuhan Virus and slams Trudeau pretty hard. Foreign new sources are not protecting Trudeau like the at home media
I have lost count of how many scathing reports from around the World on Trudeau's behavior, two from India I can remember, the very Country he talked down to and scolded. I don't know how he can continue as leader, I just don't, and Butts should go live in Europe somewhere.
Ottawa police might need military aid to end downtown occupation, chief says Police aware of significant funding and participation in protest from U.S. Sara Frizzell · CBC News
Ottawa's police chief says policing alone might not solve the ongoing, volatile occupation of the city's downtown core that has lasted for nearly a week, and military aid might be necessary.
"This is a national issue, not an Ottawa issue," Ottawa police Chief Peter Sloly said in a briefing to city councillors Wednesday afternoon.
"I am increasingly concerned there is no policing solution to this."
Sloly said options being considered include requesting military aid, negotiation, political response, a court injunction or forced removal of protesters. But all approaches come with significant concerns, including rioting, injury and death, he said.
"I don't have a singular mandate in this city, this province or this country, to negotiate the end to any demonstration. There always needs to be an element outside of the police for any truly successful end to any demonstration, particularly one of this size," he said.
People across the country, as well as from other countries, have brought their frustrations with government response to the pandemic — all levels of government — to the nation's capital.
Sounds to me like the police chief just told city council that it’s not his circus and not his monkeys and if shirts hit the fan it’s not his fault! To my way of thinking this can go 1 of 2 ways—Trudeau agrees with the truckers and asks the provinces to drop the mandates OR enact the Emergency Measures Act—in which case Canada as we know it is gone.

We are winning, there are so many wins I am having trouble keeping track. Like Viva Frei said or someone on his livestream said it was a huge victory giving O'Toole the hook, the media being exposed little by little everyday, provincial leaders scared of being held accountable, its wonderful. I and others will continue to Pray.
At least O'toole is gone.Didn't he say that he was for vaccines being mandatory? Anyways he was a globalist.Just look at his weak response and support for the truckers.Hopefully Albertains will throw out Kenney.I wonder if Nova Scotia will do anything but I doubt it they seem too F..up,just like Quebec. maybe worse.
Thank you guys for the prayers and all the support. The media is really trying to spin this and bring everyone here and everywhere down but we know better. I think everyone against us overestimated their support and underestimated the opposition.
Every day we walk around and talk with each other, sharing news, sharing the support we’re receiving from every little nook not just in our country but from around the world. Locals make a point of coming by daily to thank us and beg us not to leave. There are many here that of course won’t agree and would rather complain from their couches and believe what they are told, too stubborn to even turn on social media to see the truth for themselves. They live just a few minutes away and they refuse to come down to experience this for themselves. I saw an article this morning about a women’s shelter that feels threatened by the convoy… a convoy filled with young children and women. This is the happiest, safest gathering I have ever seen let alone one of this magnitude.
Last night we were offered a poutine dinner by some locals from Gatineau. Two middle aged women that try to come down and see us every evening, waving their flags and celebrating. We walked down a stretch of road where lots of homeless stay and seems to be in a bit of a rougher area though not bad. I never thought anything of it until I over heard one off the women mention it to her friend. The other woman laughed and said they don’t have to worry, look. She was referring to all the strangers carrying flags. Everyone of them were on the same side as us and she knew it.
Later in the evening we met and had a quick meeting with an Alberta MP to discuss the convoy. He says he’s on the fence with what’s happening though it’s hard to tell what they really mean when a politician is speaking. I don’t think we agreed on much really, even covering the topic of the tool being ousted. He believes support is waning for the convoy, especially in AB. I disagree. I do believe we all need to start emailing and calling our MPs if we are in support to show them that the people are behind this convoy.
As far as trouble on the ground, it seems all arrests made have been counter protesters, one going so far as to bring firearms down here. There are less cops around, I’ve heard due to the vaccine mandates for LEOs that just came into effect here in ON.
Each day brings a lot of rumours, mostly negative but we don’t worry. I look at the streets, clean from refuse. I see smiling faces all day long. I see people being fed. Strangers hugging, sharing a drink and a story. Every person here is expecting to be financially ruined from this and yet you won’t find a tear shed from despair though you will see many tears of joy.
Your support carries us all through each day. It inspires each other here on this thread or here in Ottawa. Hope is contagious and it’s making us all the better for it.
Nashville; Thanks so much for the report, I look for them every day here.
It's been my and likely our privilege to pray for you all Nashville, I mean that.
As I've mentioned, much of the response from the folks in the Ottawa area and Quebec as well has forced me to examine some of my personal bias towards them - which in itself it a bit of a minor miracle Nashville.
Nashville thanks for all you are doing and stand for , my hat is off to you.. if there is anything you need or anything you need us to do, do not be scared to reach out .. my wife and I are planning on going back up to Edmonton again Saturday. And I ve got an engine to finish putting together this morning, but this afternoon if they block hwy 16 by Lloydminster we may run some equipment over there.
Thanks Nashville, I was wondering if the arrests were counter protestors, crickets here from the media.
On the local support....you are in the most hostile territory imaginable, and it takes real courage to do that. From what I see here the convoy has overwhelming support. The media is chipping away and they are having trouble so they are making stuff up, we are winning. big victories all around, it will just take time to recognize them.
O'Toole gone is one, media being exposed is another, Trudeau exposed for what he is, Jason Kenny may have stepped in shyte, its only been a few days LOL. My family is giddy here and we are going to join a freedom rally this weekend.
Millions of Americans are praying you. Anything more we can do to help. My friends and I donated to the go fund me account. Any separate accounts to provide food or fuel for the freedom rally?

I am going to make up some signs for myself and the angry mob this weekend, I will spend tomorrow out in the shop making them. Canadian flags are nowhere to be found, all sold out, fortunately I have a few spares so we already have those.
Showing our politicians through writing is good to try and get them on our side. More people write in to complain than to show support so we need to turn those numbers around.
If you’re on Facebook, “The crackpot farmer” being run by my BIL has turned into a hub for finding out information and who to contact for various needs here in Ottawa.
There’s a ton of money in the GFM account that will take care of the truckers for a long time now. I’m not currently aware of any other places to donate to but if you want to donate financially, try and donate directly to individuals. That money can’t be held up.
If you’re going to a local rally. Keep it peaceful and do whatever you can to help, especially help EMS/LEOs to get them on our side. Leave a lane open for them to drive through in case of an emergency. Bring lots of garbage bags, garbage tongs, shovels, etc. Clean up garbage, shovel sidewalks, wipe off graffiti. Help each other and the public in any way you can think of. Everyone has a skill or a gift, use it. Take lots of videos and photos and spread that news, get it beyond our borders. Be very aware of news reporters and look up names online to see who they are and what they stand for.
If you’re staying over night, lock up all your stuff and protect your fuel. Set up a security group to patrol all night.
Fuel, and washrooms are the hardest part. Bringing wagons to haul fuel is a good idea. Porta potties fill up quick, keep them on a trailer or pickup to easily move them out when full.
“Be wise as serpants and harmless as doves”. Remember, we are here to UNITE Canada.
Showing our politicians through writing is good to try and get them on our side. More people write in to complain than to show support so we need to turn those numbers around.

Im unvaxed so can't cross into Canada. I'll check out your BIL social for ideas or names who need help
Thanks

It's good to see some more folks of prominence coming out in support.
Was also watching some of the opening exchanges between Candice Bergen and Chrystia Freeland today and the comments there were scorching toward the Liberals.
Anyways as always I'll continue to pray for you and all involved.
Thanks Nash-that was a great video. When I immigrated to Canada in 1972 I was a pretty messed up mentally. The were a bunch of World War II vets at the local legion—most had served in Combat—one hit Juno beach and one had help build the Allan highway. They made me feel welcome and proud to be a Canadian. Watching the videos on You-Tube and knowing many truckers from my time as a logger the last couple of days has again made me proud to be Canadian. No politician has ever made me feel that way.
I see Trudeau stuck his head out and says.........the Citizens of Ottawa want their lives back so its time for the "protestors" to go home, really?? LOLOL,..........You are confused about who wants their lives back you fuggin idiot??
Good work! very well spoken. This is the example you have chosen to leave your children. As parents, we have the choice of the legacy we leave.
Saturday is shaping up to be a great day for Canada and those who love freedom, everyday it gets better. I was out all day yesterday doing some work in the community, I found out there were people in groups standing out in front of their homes with signs and flags on remote rural roads. There are no flags available around here right now, sold out, LOL.
I approve of, and applaud the stand the freedom seeking patriots in Canada are taking. Nowadays it does the heart and soul good to see such brave men at work. It's also worth noting again what a coward and worm Redgewell and guys like him are, truly a disgrace to what real men stand for.
It’s relatively early yet but today’s efforts will be about preparation for this weekends (continued) Freedom celebration!
We’re finding ourselves having less time to walk around filming and more time glued to our phones helping with organization.
It’s fun seeing how upbeat the truckers are and watching locals cave in to the love being shown. The moment you pass through the barriers into the “protest” area is the moment you become free. THIS IS THE FREEST AREA IN CANADA RIGHT NOW. You can find unending hugs, food and celebration. If you want a save judgement free area, please come down here or to any other Celebration event. Bring your kids, bring your pets, bring your grandmothers. You will not be turned away and you will not regret it. You will regret standing by though.
I have no numbers on what is expected. We just see post after post online of people saying they are going to be here for the weekend or they will be going to their local legislative buildings nation wide.
Media and government are trying to dissuade everyone from showing up though there are too many people on the ground here already sending live feeds out for all to see what is truly happening.
We’ve heard reports from a couple thousand to five million expected here in Ottawa… we would love to see five million but we know that’s unrealistic.
If you listen to that broadcast above, they have a part toward the end that talks about numbers. The short of it is, they don't know what the attendance has been so far, but regardless, it is working. Stay warm.
Do you have any idea how many people are expected in Ottawa this weekend? I hear the hotels are booked.
Wannabebwana,
That shows that things can be done peacefully, and without malice. It’s a Canadian thing.
Its always a peaceful Canadian thing right stevey? lol Remember when all of the left wing Canadian politicians and the communist rag CBC praised, looting, arson and murder
That's why myself and friends are going out tomorrow and support our Canadian brethren who are tired of being victims of a globalist, and we are not going to be threatened by a madman.
It was ok for BLM the bullshyte... Canadians have no fugging idea about that shyte, Trudeau took a knee at that protest, wtf?? We need to separate from those biches, the good guys are welcome, the rest can fugg off, line drawn.. Manitoba.
There is no excuse for Go Fund Me to do what they have done. Especially on the basis of erroneous police reports. I will never donate to any GFM page for any reason. The platform is corrupt. GD

How I see it...the globalists are running scared because their agenda got a bump in it, and their bich Trudeau can't speak off the cuff about anything because he is an idiot. Everything they do is a projection, nothing is spontaneous, it takes days for them to respond to the circumstance.
They detest the unity from Canadians, and all they had was racism, pathetic.
If people unite over ideology without regard for race, all people, all cultures, that is what they truly hate, book it.
We were getting pretty exhausted so we took the day off and went hiking out in Quebec. We had dinner with friends and we were able to squeeze in showers and a load of laundry.
Lots of rumours going around. If you’re on Facebook, you can catch up on “The Crackpot Farmer”. I will also try to keep doing updates here though I’m finding myself with less time each day due to needs here.
Gofundme, everyone wants to know. We are not involved with it as we are in a personal vehicle so we are not eligible for those funds anyway. The organizers of the event and GFM will be the only ones that can truthfully report on what is happening with the funds. I agree, GFM should not be involved with funds. We will be helping separately (on our own) with trying to find alternative methods of getting funds directly to everyone here though we don’t have anything yet. If you want to donate financially, try to donate directly to someone here.
To those questioning Doug ford, Kenny, Moe. I dislike all of them greatly, that being said imagine if we didn’t have “conservative” premiers in those provinces. This situation would be so much worse, in fact we would probably all have ended up like Quebec.
People have started to arrive though it’s still easy to work your way through town at the moment. We are hoping tomorrow will be big but we are aware there will be a lot of counter (freedom) protesters there tomorrow. We are doing our best to make sure everyone stays calm, collected and peaceful on our side. Lots of cops will be here tomorrow which is great.
We have started up an informal security group, apart from the main convoy security (lead by the turds ex head sniper, oh the irony) which has done an amazing job not only of setting up on the fly with random volunteers but also keeping everything around here safe over the past few days now. We heard today that crime rates have dropped significantly in this area since arriving. Most if not all incidents of arrests made have been counter protesters harassing and vandalizing the convoy.
We have a main fuel hub set up for fuel distribution to the convoy as well as a location for all other donations.
We have a few other things in the works as well though we are trying to be strategic.
We appreciate your support. If you have any ideas that you think may be helpful, shoot me a PM. Strategy is key. Please also understand that none of us have ever done anything like this in our lives. We are flying by the seat of our pants and learning on the go. Everything we do is from our cell phones as we never expected to be doing anything like this. I would also like to reiterate that the two of us are not involved with the convoy organizers we are just a couple guys helping out as needs have come up. We have met a ton of amazing people that are in the same position as us and we’ve started working together.
GODs peace comes from prayers,good Children know this ! ,Good people everywhere need to pray and Ask for GOD’s Devine help ,but always include Jesus’s name and end with AMEN. I’ve been praying for all the Great truckers of the world and all the great people supporting them , God is watching,Prayers are what evil fears especially said at night !.
The turnout is amazing here in Ottawa. Kids and grandmothers everywhere. It’s a celebration that you do not want to miss! Hopefully you guys have made it out to some local gatherings if possible.
Police presence is high but the mood has not changed. It continues to be a peaceful freedom celebration and everyone is having fun.
The GFM seizure has improved moral and added to our cause like you would not believe.

Excellent --- I was a little worried after watching the Ottawa police chief talk last night (link below). All the best for the good work all of you are doing.
Went to the protest in Toronto today. I have no idea how to count crowd numbers, but my estimate would be 10,000. There were several drones and helicopters flying around so I’m sure there will be an official count (though we’ll never get the real numbers).
A number of speakers, some good, a couple kooks. Aboriginal drummers and singers. People of all colours and creeds. Happy, respectful and supportive. Even scored a nice Nicaraguan cigar from a guy! And people were smoking funny things.
No counter-protesters to speak of. A few wearing masks but not really rabble-rousing. Someone set off a tear-gas bomb but very little wind and it didn’t seem to cause any disturbance. And the best thing of all - you could see people’s faces, you could smile and talk without the mask filter.
At one point, a speaker asked those who had lost their job due to the mandate to put their hand up. I’d say 40% of people there were like that. Talked to some nurses and other medical personnel who were out of work.
We were there about 4 hours, talked to some great people, a number from Eastern Europe who grew up under communism and said Canada is actually worse at this point.
Watched the media coverage of the protest today on Global. They claimed only 1000 people. There were far, far more. And, funny thing, the only interviews they published were those with white people. The camera shots only showed white people. At least 30% of the people there were POC. All races and ethnicities. I laughed with a few POC calling them racists.
So. Much. Fake. News.
We parked and took the subway in because I decided people were more important to see than trucks. We walked into the subway station unmasked. The TTC employee was helpful and supportive. No one challenged us and we knew who was going to the protest because they were all unmasked. A couple of looks but no issues.
We went into a couple of restaurants and people were unmasked and no one challenged. Even security guards at buildings were helpful and supportive.
Thankfully the Ottawa convoy has been barricaded in by police cars and concrete barriers so it’s pretty safe from anything like that.

It's an hour long, but the short version is he supports what's happening and explains why that is.
You and your BIL and the rest as well remain in my prayers.
Dwayne
Hey Dwayne, thanks for the support and info. We’ll try and get some time to watch it. I have seen in several areas now that he is supporting us and he has been very vocal in calling out Justrun. The big names of people supporting us is huge and quite amazing. Once again Dwayne, thank you so much for the prayers.

Hey wannabebwana,
I’m glad you got to experience a Freedom Celebration, it’s a truly beautiful experience that I hope all will get the chance to be a part of. The more eyes that see how absolutely disgusting and deceitful our media is in this country, the better. Everywhere within our boundaries has become a safe place where you have the choice to mask up or not and you get to be happy.
Cheers and hope you’ll get another chance to get back out there.
we went out to what I figured was going to be the most populated freedom rally within an hour of my house, so we went to Vernon and participated with that one. There were rallies all over, everywhere scattered around, I think that is just the nature of the area. There was probably 500 People or more, it was hard to tell because I couldn't see them all at the same time because the People were on all 4 corners of a major intersection leading into town, there was no way for the traffic to not go right by everyone.
I never saw a mask anyone, except a covtard that walked by us twice mumbling about his right to wear a mask, LOL, I said to him yeah, it is your right, that's the point. Everyone I spoke with was well educated on the subject, very polite, and zero garbage. I spoke with a young lady who lost her job of 22 years with Canada post, several others who lost their jobs. Lots of kids, very impressed, nobody was smoking weed or drinking, so that was good too.
Every single truck that went by was pulling on it, they were really appreciative for the support, most car/trucks honking, a few Trudeau salutes, about one salute for every 100 vehicles, this one guy kept driving by repeatedly with a big smile on his face, Trudeau salute displayed, then he got stuck at a crosswalk and about 8 old guys were there yelling stuff, that was the most hilarious thing I saw, and it was funny. The most interesting scene I saw was a pickup stopped in front of us and a kid about 10, hung out the window of his Dads truck with a sign that read..."Trudeau is a Communist"...all I could say was.....that's right little buddy.
Thanks for the report Nash and Wanna. I spent the entire day on you-tube watching the live chats and reading the comments. There had to have been easy 200 live-chats to choose from. I even saw the police board meeting with the chief and 2 of his vice chiefs. Frequently I would go over to google news and read the articles by ‘mainstream media’ CBC—CTV—and Global. The bias of mainstream media is unbelievable—it’s like night and day difference as to what’s reported here. Where’s all the horn honking in the middle of the night? Where’s all the homeless being assaulted? I would have like to see some video evidence of window breaking going on in the residential neighborhoods? On many of the live feeds I saw people dancing and hugging and even singing—I saw people with their pets and their kids. I saw some people protesting the protestors too. None of them would talk to Viva Frie but they did to some guys. I didn’t hear any raised voices or even name calling. The police chief is over the top on some of his speeches also. He’s ranting and raving like a lunatic and it’s because he can’t do a damn thing about those truckers —he knows it and the damn board keeps yelling at him to do something. One of the vice chiefs gave some of the numbers—they’ve only got like 495 officers total and they blew thru the years police budget in 9 days and hopefully the federal govt is going to pony up some money for the city and the RCMP are going to send in another 250 instead of the 50 or 60 they were gonna send. At any given time I guess they got 300 officers on traffic control so nothing else is getting done—plus they need at least another 45 to 60 investigators to handle all the criminal code stuff. I would have been tickled to death if they just renounced the mandates but now I want 2 more things—abolish all govt funding to media—let CBC compete with Rebel news and Vive Frie. And Trudeau should resign.
I’m glad you got out and enjoyed your day. It’s special to see happy people smiling all day long and taking care of each other. It rejuvenates not only your soul but your faith in your community. To see first hand that there are others like you, that are on your side, gives hope.
Will there be another party tomorrow?
Wannabebwana,
That is good to hear. This may be the most important time to be a member. A strong leader is needed right now and with the convoy dividing parties, it will add to the stress. The good news is that everyone is in complete disgust with Justrun right now.
I am seriously considering renewing my membership for the leader vote.

The party I attended is only on Saturday, but they had been going there since September, wtf?? I didn't know that...anyways buddy said they didn't want to stretch People too thin. A strong, steady show weekly is what they wanted. I will go every Saturday until either Trudeau resigns or the mandates are dropped.
Its funny you mention "others like you" because my Wife took her friend who is surrounded by covtards, and that is what she said, "it sure was nice to be with People who think like me" and she was having a real good time.
I'm going to renew my membership too, only because of pete, my MP is a dud.
The Elephant in the room, the Communist pukes, also known as... the media. I feel better everyday, the longer it go's on these People continue to crap in their own nest. They can't just go to the basement and hide out, like Trudeau and Butts, I hope Trudeau doesn't end any mandates because this is fun.
We have been suffering for a long time, these left wing hacks,, have had it too good,, for too long. They have been mugging the Constitution and fugging with our rights, unopposed, the ones mugging our Constitution don't even live here.
The media no longer cares what it's audience thinks or wants, because they're operating under the assumption that they control what the public thinks and wants.
So to you, our Canadian brothers of the best type, may the holy spirit protect you and may you find strength during this time of challenge. God bless you!
Was ready to donate with the go fund me and got lucky and GFM Shiite itself just before I donated. Whew
Looking to give through the givesendgo , any hiccups with this donation site?
I’ve looked and don’t see any funny business with them.
I accessed the site last night and made a donation, site is slow and they are still processing my donation this morning. I thought the middle of the night would be a good time with all the traffic, LOL. I see its in US funds, I think we are in good hands now.
A look at the demonstration in Edmonton yesterday by City News. Huge number of vehicles coming from both North and South. Great attendance, peaceful and happy folks -- lots of horns
I dropped in on the enemy this morning, the CBC is hammering the safety of the residents in Ottawa. People on talking about how scared they are, protestors have gas, propane tanks, campfires burning, have the law throw them out etc..
They blither about how they just want their lives back to normal, they are inconvenienced by the freedom rally supporters, and really, that is what it is all about..........lives back to normal, well no shyte sherlock, drop the mandates and everyone can just go home.
Trying to divide the people further and gain sympathy from the majority of the populace, it isn't working, not that I can tell. Just because someone isn't yelling from the rooftops, doesn't mean much, it just means they would rather not get involved for a variety of reasons, we all have limits for shyte tolerance.
The media is chasing its tail trying to spin how the Conservative party is in shambles lol, false.....this morning it has a new leader (a formality) and is poised to govern this Country.
CBC news is reporting on the misinformation being spread, is about as rich as it gets. Ever notice how all the experts on any given subject are hired bs artists and they always begin their narrative with...I agree with everything you say....but...? This is the first clue to misinformation and the CBC begins every story on this subject in this manner, so fake.
So-called.....Dr Isaac Bogoch LOL is on everyday LOL a real pos, other than a pos, who is he?
We have had 2 years to.....provide Citizens with proper masking choices....it hasn't happened. 2 years to recruit and bring in new healthcare workers, care aids, cleaners, nurses etc...it hasn't happened.
Mr Tam, are you kidding me?
The first clue that we were/are being duped is the fact that the ingredients of this so-called Vaccine are to be kept secret for 75 years LOL, that is reassuring to no one.
This screams....."the rule of law" is a series of moving goalposts to suit their agenda. The rule of law is supposed to apply to all Citizens equally, this is simply another example of how Trudeau has been mugging the very foundation of this Country. Take a knee for BLM is the phoniest thing I have seen from a Government leader in my lifetime.
As of Midnight tonight. It will be a criminal mischief charge to carry or supply fuel to the convoy at parliament. We have the rest of today to get fuel stockpiled and trucks filled before this comes into effect.
We also received news back and we are calling all citizens to call and email the Governor General asking for a vote of non-confidence. This is the legal avenue to get Trudeau out of office and call another election. Please call and email daily.
Our next operation in play is to get anyone in or near the following places to start 24/7 peaceful protests such as we are doing here in Ottawa; Durham, York, Sudbury, London, Toronto and Cornwall. This is to completely tie up municipal forces that are currently supporting and bolstering Ottawa forces. If you are able to help in those locations, please do.

Take care all and remember to keep it peaceful.
I am waiting for "them" to start a fire or some other emergency to bring them public support. This is just getting started, conserve fuel until you run out, you are winning.
Nashville; Good afternoon sir, thanks for the update.
I just watched a couple blurbs from Evan Solomon on CTV YouTube soundbites. No he's not on my Christmas list, I want to know where the media is at.
He had on Jagmeet Singh, who squirmed and didn't answer anything at all in a meaningful way. Mr. Singh was being roasted on a spit in the comments. Some guy with the handle of BC30cal wasn't complimentary either in his comments.
Then Evan had on somebody from Angus Reid, a writer from the Toronto Star and a CTV reporter/talking head.
The Angus Reid lady said that nearly 60% of Canadians - who actually answer their polls and I've stopped answering polls a decade back myself... but - they're done - put a fork in them. They want the economy and inflation dealt with now.
Evan and the talking head made a big deal that it wasn't the protests - they were just serendipitously timed with Saskatchewan and Alberta rolling back the provincial mandates and a looming election in Ontario and Quebec. Nothing to see here, just move along folks, nothing to see here.
That said, the legacy news is now actually saying out loud that the majority are done. In a world run by polling companies that's got to be a hardwood stake to the heart of the Prince Hide 'n Snowboard - metaphorically speaking of course because we all know vampires don't go snowboarding. That's the werewolves....
Anyways sir that's what I saw on the amount of mainstream news I could stomach before needing to shut it off and clean out my ears with non-ethanol gasoline.
I'll end with my commitment to continue praying for you and your BIL - and the rest too of course - but somehow you both have been stuck in my head/heart or whatever it is this old guy has for that apparatus.
This is Ian Runkle's take on it and well worth the read.
I'll add that if any Canadian firearm owners aren't already watching Ian's YouTube channel Runkle of the Bailey, you're missing out and potentially not saving yourself some legal issues as well.
Thanks for the Runkle take. It’s an interesting read.
Also appreciate the continued prayers. We just got news the cops are seizing our main fuel depot right now and trying to put the squeeze on. We’ll see how the lawyers start doing things tomorrow hopefully.
For now we will continue peacefully like always and take it day by day.
Just a Hunter; Good afternoon to you sir, nearly evening I guess, but regardless I hope you're all well.
The link on the previous page did work the other day, but there's been repeated reports it's been either overloaded or being attacked, not sure which or either really.
Nashville and friends have already won. I don't imagine Trudeau sleeps very well. I think he was given the role of dictator so he can take the fall alone, and they could ram their globalist agenda down our throats, he can just be dumped and the party can be rebuilt.
The media is really trying to project all the political parties are on the same page now. The humor here is......who cares? They are also reporting someone tried to start a fire, and then got away, I am astonished....that it took so long.
The support for the freedom fighters around the Country is overwhelming, and still growing, the longer it go's the better it gets.
Been watching this as time permits. So as I understand this to mean that, there was a patent filed on the so-called Vaccine, 3 days before the Virus was created??
Then the media was used to hype all of it, so a bunch of A-holes could make a lot of money. With all the patent # layed out in the video, a person can simply do his own research to explore the truth in timelines and who did what, when.

Yes exactly.Anyone with half a brain would not believe this pandemic is real even without viewing any evidence.When all the players are criminals and liars and they don't allow free speech, that says it all.

My investigation is already complete. If any deserving entity wants me to donate, don't use GFM because you can GFY. Use another method and I am all in.
I was watching CPAC this morning, most Liberals are showing up from a remote location, looks like all the Conservatives show up for work in person. Chrystia Freeland couldn't answer a question directly and was visibly frustrated, she is the #2 in charge, #2 is a good name for her. The Liberals are in big trouble LOLOLOL
Trudeau the infantile pos, couldn't show up, but unbelievably, he couldn't even show up via skype or whatever.
They are screaming for him to show up and make some kind of statement. My guess is that there is something else keeping him away from responding in some way......it is ludicrous.
No worries on our funding, fuel or food. We are in good hands and even better spirits. Watching the city update was hilarious, I believe the only true fact was that the police are getting tired. There may be some officers that would try and arrest individuals for brining in supplies but I’m not sure they’d have much support in making that arrest.
There is a lot less noise due to the 10 day injunction but many of us kind of agree with that anyway. I did get a chance to meet five new residents that live within the “red zone” that told us not to leave. Some of their stories are extremely heart warming.
Weather is getting warmer this week before another cool down but everyone here is doing well and excited to see what the week will bring.
As I mentioned to your BIL on his FaceBook report, he's doing more with his upbeat reports than he may realize - in hopefully changing our fellow Canadian's minds about the narrative being fed via the legacy media and left of center politics.
I'll also note that the new Leader of the Opposition Hon. Candice Bergen came out swinging in parliament today and landed some wonderful hits.
She's not Erin O'Toole by any stretch, lets put it that way.
You and your BIL remain in my daily prayers for sure - as do the rest who are there.
Yes thanks Nashville, I was wondering what was happening, so the update is welcome, and I second everything Dwayne said. Trudeau didn't even show up by skype or anything today,, I'm pretty sure his own party is asking where he is, everyone else in parliament is lol. Prayers on the way!
673; Good afternoon, I hope the day was decent for you all and you're well.
We had enough sun that the snow started to move a wee bit here. Had a small herd of 11 mulies hanging out in the yard for awhile which is always fun to watch too.
Hopefully it's acceptable that I keep on posting videos from here and there as I do believe it's important to get a bit of the world's take on this.
For sure WION is right of center news or at least I'd say center, but as I mentioned to Mike78 they have 4 million subscribers world wide and that's not nothing.
You freedom fighters in Ottawa be alert. That police chief would love to make Ottawa Tainanmen Square West.
Absolutely, the commies are showing themselves thru and thru and it’s quite shocking to realize there are that many useless commie pecker heads here in Canada. I believe they should flood 911 with calls about theft of fuel over 5000$ . I can’t believe the officers and the fire department would starve and steal fuel from people exercising their right to protest
Lorne; Good evening to you sir, I hope the weather has been somewhat tolerable in my home province and you're well.
As I was watching that I thought the very same thing.
While there are rumors that the Ottawa Police are being replaced for various reasons with LEO from other centers it's still someone's father or grandfather they're manhandling there.
The RCMP - in my view - don't really need any further bad press to add to their last few years of major issues, so we'll see how the Ottawa situation shakes out if they're called upon.
All the best to you out in Saskatchewan tonight Lorne.

Good to hear from you.
Weather has been warm here,so no complaints. Very little snow on the ground here in the SW which is a concern as so many waterholes are dry.
Exactly agree with you. That is a person you are dealing with, regardless if you can go home to a different city after you treat him like the stuff that comes out of Sparkle Socks mouth on a regular basis...
I remember a passage from one of the old hunting writers that went something like “ being honest is obeying the game laws when no one is watching “ .
That obviously stuck with me and as I move out of my 50’s and have grandkids that are kind enough to treat me with respect, I find myself being more aware of that attitude than ever. I want to be as good as my dog thinks I am, if that makes sense.
I’ve rattled on but I’m sure we are on the same page.
Hope things are well with you, if you ever get back to this neck of the woods the coffee is always on
Trudeau's plan for the great reset hit a bit of a snag, he looked lost. What seems to be over this demented fools head is that if he removes the People from Ottawa, another protest will take shape elsewhere, or morph into another form. He never addresses a resolve to the issue....... to add insult, he just hid for 10 days.
Secondly....since this static began, he also never addresses the issue directly, such as not even entertaining meeting with the "truckers". He looks to dismiss the cross border mandate entirely lol. He is 100% focused on the streets of Ottawa, nothing else matters, he is a mental case.

I watched Sparkle Socks on TV last night. Sat at the kitchen table this morning and watched the truckers news conference on You-tube.
I figure I can sit in jail just as easy as at the kitchen table—hell I’m retired and ain’t much use to anybody anyway. Ottawa is a straight shot down Highway 11 which runs past my front door. I got the old car gassed up—packed a small duffel bag—prolly put a couple of jerrycans in the trunk. It’s prolly a 12 hour drive.
Soon as the live feeds from Ottawa drop I’ll be on my way.

Morning, Dwayne. A bright and sunny -4C here today. You can feel the sun getting warmer each day.
If you think about it, this is really the first real challenge Sparkle Socks has faced in his tenure. A feckless Conservative Party leadership along with the media and Privy Council running interference on any other scandals have made him feel like a God-Emperor.
One can just imagine him stomping his feet in frustration because those mean truckers just won't listen!!!
Not much happening this morning. Late night for myself. We have a few short meetings to do today but that’s about it.
With the injunction in place it’s pretty quiet around here now. Still people coming out every day to see what’s going on and supporting all of us here. There is a flag raising every afternoon along with everyone joining in for the national anthem (pre-Justrun anthem).
There are rumours flying around online that this area will go dark and we will be swarmed and arrested by Friday. No one has validated these rumours.
I haven’t seen anyone get worked up about it as scare tactics have been what the police and government have been doing even before we arrived.
Weather has warmed up, probably close to 0 right now and a few flakes have started to fall.
First thing I do when I wake up is Pray for my brethren. We are winning, they are flying Canadian flags in foreign Countries as their convoys get under way.

673; That's really something isn't it?
This is yet another area of life where if you'd have asked me even a month ago if I could foresee a situation where that'd happen, I'd have bet money against it.
My goodness it's a good thing I don't gamble, you know?
Everyday we look back here waiting for your words of support as well. I personally have felt at peace this entire time, I haven’t had any bad days yet. It’s almost unfair. There are those around here that ride a rollercoaster of emotions in relation to what is happening around us. They waiver in their surety of the support behind and around them.
I take your words of encouragement and share them with those that need reassuring. It generally doesn’t take long to turn around a few sour thoughts. Your words go further than you may know.
Nashville; Thanks for that, I appreciate you sharing that with us.
For me, as I've aged and our kids grew up and started their own lives, the tough part about being a dad was that I didn't feel as "useful" as when they were younger.
My absolute best days for our kids and their significant others is when I can help them in a meaningful way be it making a shelf, installing some cabinets or countertops or helping with an oil change. We're rural so can do work on cars in our yard and one is in a strata and one rents so even oil changes are not allowed.
Anyway all that to say sir that when I'm able to do something "useful" for you such as petition the Creator on your behalf - well that's a blessing for me too, if that makes sense?
So yah, the dads here will continue to pray for you and your BIL for peace, wisdom and discernment.
If you ever make it out to the Okanagan, there's some coffee with your name on it too.
Dwayne
Edit to add; It goes without saying hopefully that I pray for our daughters, their significant others and my entire family daily as well, since I believe with all my heart its effective and has proven to be useful for sure.
Good morning, Nashville. I posted this in another thread. What are the Ontario truckers saying about the possibility of losing their commercial licenses? The federal transport minister suggested to Doug Ford that he should pull them.

I have been firing off letters to Native groups asking for a clarification of position, sitting on the fence isn't a position. Time to nut up, my people haven't contributed to Canada in 135 years, why lie.
Good morning Steve, I have not heard anyone mention it. We have seen the article but I’m not sure anyone really cares too much? If they do suspend the truckers licenses, they would then have to deal with towing all the trucks that would now have no driver. Towing companies have declined to tow anyone here and there are many more people that would come in and take our places or blockade the blockade such as done in Alberta.

Steve; Top of the morning to you sir, I hope you're getting decent weather in your part of the world and you're all well.
What I don't begin to suggest I speak for any truckers, out here most of the owner operators are making payments on their rigs.
If the feds or province pull their certification, they can walk away and be hired in another industry this afternoon for the most part.
The start of that pile of dominoes then would be the finance company who really own the truck take it in the shorts, then as noted above nobody is going to tow the thing anyways, so it sits in the middle of the city and the finance company/bank takes another blow to the shorts.
Feeling terrible about taking a double blow to the shorts, the finance company and their local MP go to the Ontario Liquor Distribution outlet and low and behold the shelves are bare because - well the booze truck didn't run because reasons.
When they swing into the local grocery after that, they'll see even less on the shelves and when they run out of gas on the way home, they'll walk because the fuel truck needed repairs today for reasons...
If anyone thinks that's a fantasy, they really need to talk to a few truckers and then listen carefully to what they're saying in response.
I have folks in the trucking industry in my immediate family Steve.... talk about the wrong crowd to think you can back them into a corner.
They'll come out on the other side in much, much better shape.
No worries. Even a raid such as being rumoured leaves parliament in the same position. They can arrest everyone but they still have dead trucks there and no one to move them. On top of that, more people are ready to come in.
Holding everyone, transporting everyone, and dealing with a more inflamed nation would become another problem.

I think most of us realize that yanking licenses isn't the way to go, but even during this protest, some MPs are looking to score political points. It is the nature of the beast.
Things must come to a head before progress is made. I saw that one Liberal MP has even "rebuked" his own party over pandemic restrictions. It is one of a number of things to watch. That won't play well with the Liberals, but it's out there now. CTV released Joel Lightbound's statement to the press.

I hate doing that kind of thing but opened my mouth before thinking about the consequences. Serves me right I guess.
I heard a familiar voice behind the trailer and gave a quick shout out to David. I didn’t think about the fact he was live or that he may want to interview us.
It was cool to get the chance to talk with him and The crackpot farmer has blown up already these past few minutes because of him. The BIL is excited, me not quite as much.

You have my & my families full on backing as well as many that I've spoken to in my neck of America. Thanks for the updates and stay strong!
I feel foolish saying thank you so much as it doesn’t feel like that is enough. That said, Thank you all for your support.
I’m hoping we can win our country back in time to throw our full support to America. This can’t just stop with one nation.
There is more news flooding in of an expected raid. A complete blackout of the downtown core and mass arrests. I’m not sure how I feel about this as so far we have not been able to verify this as fact. I feel at peace any way and so I will not worry. The world would find out soon enough if it came to fruition.
Elon Musk owns this now, word is he donated 42,000 and change, think I will start a thread over on the hunters campfire so all may have a https://www.bitchute.com/video/STozggwvZqqw/
Looks like the farmers have joined in at the Alberta border. Is President blackface going to take away their farming licenses? Hopefully the big cities will start experiencing empty food shelves.
I have been musing that if the tow trucks don't want the job lol, then that would be a good excuse for the globalists to bring in the Military do do just that, they have the equipment to do so. Kinda like sneaking in under the guise of towing/removing the vehicles, meanwhile also coming is a large number of personal to remove their brothers and sisters.

President black face has called the freedom rally participants NAZI's and white supremacists ( every though there are many people of color participating) and terrorists every chance he gets and you're surprised he would take away licenses? lol
Military has so far been steadfast in their refusal to put boots on the ground.
Yeah, I'm not sure what the arrangement is between Government and the Military LOL, I am only musing about it, but it wouldn't surprise me. On the other hand, maybe the will of the Military is more inclined to attack parliament while they are in the neighborhood.

Nashville,
You guys (and this cause) continue to be in my prayers. Remember that each one of you there represents probably 100-1000 people who you don't see or hear, but who are proponents of liberty and who hope and pray for your success. You guys are the faces and mouths of millions of Canadians, and untold millions around the world.

Jordan; Good morning to you my friend it's good to hear from you.
As for you joining us in prayer for our fellow 'Fire mates here - as well as the rest - I'm sure you're not surprised that I already knew in my heart you were doing so.
Really I meant to be in the shop since I decided to wait until tomorrow to go ice fishing, but I put the wrong info into my bread machine and had to wait a half hour until it cleared it's memory to continue.
Anyways that meant I was wandering around on the news feed and found this.
For sure he's a Liberal back bencher and we can say so what - but - he's used some firm terms describing the language Prince Hide 'n Ski was using.
The cracks are beginning to show perhaps?
At very least it took fortitude for this Quebec Liberal MP to do this as he's on several naughty lists now for sure and certain.
All the best to you all Jordan and know I'm honored to have you joining me in prayer for these folks and the situation we're in.
Nashville I would like to echo Jordan/s comments --- the effort by you and all the Truckers out there is appreciated. The changes that have happened todate are a direct result of the good work by the demonstration team. Even if everything ended today the memory of what has happened would continue to force change in the Federal actions.
Federal issues are dealt with by Members of Parliament which is in Ottawa.
Provincial issues are dealt with by Members of the Legislative Assembly which is in the provincial capital.
Our senators are lifetime appointees and are more or less glorified rubber stamps, though they can slow down legislation they don't approve of, it's unusual for them to stop it.
There's no reason to apologize either sir - though it does make you an honorary Canuck by starting that way I suppose?
Ask away and I'll do my best to check in and give an answer as best I can.
Thanks for your interest and especially for your prayer support sir.
I left the Quebec Liberal MP a tip of the hat for taking a reasoned approach to this all.
When you get a chance to listen to his statement, he left some marks.
Said that one grandmother he talked to didn't seem like a white supremacist - neither did the black, FN and Sikh folks he talked to a the demonstration in Quebec City.
Was super critical of his governments approach to the whole beer flu mess.
Said he wasn't alone but was the first to speak in public.
Anyways I gave him a cyber nod from the BC redneck contingent paying attention to the details.
Mark Strahl just said....Trudeau was double Vaxxed and even had a booster, and he still got sick LOLOL pure Gold a conservative just called Duclo a Karen lolol

Well stated.
The Canadian Truckers have a ton of support in the USA.
It is shameful how the news media is painting the trucker occupation as an unruly mob that's threatening the good people of Ottawa, whereas last summer the BLM occupations that completely ruined some of the great US cities and resulted in more unsolved rapes and murders than they'll ever let on were spun as peaceful protests.

The honour is mine, Dwayne. You truly are the salt of the Earth.
I hate that everything has come to where it has but we must stand strong together in matters such as this.
Our governments have watched us become a complacent citizenry all the while delegating themselves with more & more power.
The time has come for us to take back what is rightfully ours.
A trucker strike here would most likely be the final nail in my 80+ year old family business's coffin[after the past 2 years] but the ship has to be righted, and if not us and now then who and when?
The Bloc wants money for healthcare, they had to be reminded that was the Provinces job to grovel for money, not his LOL
The NDP proves once again they are a wasted vote, shameful dialogue.
The Conservatives dominated in passion, intellect, fact, and members present in the house, a colossal win for our friends in Ottawa and elsewhere away from their families.
I'm sorry, more than sorry, deeply troubled that your family business of 80+ years is threatened by governmental intervention or meddling. There's no other way to put it really.
As you noted we got here either through complacency or perhaps not being careful enough to examine what we thought at the time might be lies, but we kept on course for reasons that we believed were valid at the time.
Again I'll offer that if you or any of our non Canuck folks sitting at our cyber 'Fire have questions, please do ask - PM or out here is fine by me. I'm not afraid to say I don't know, you know?
Your final thought really strikes a chord with me as I've been blessed with a wonderful run in life, far more than I've ever done to deserve it, but it's my kids and if not my grandkids then other folks' grandkids that deserve as firm a foundation for their lives as was provided for me by my own parents and grandparents.
All the best and thanks so much again for your continued prayer.

There is a procedure in place. The province would have to formally request military assistance. That has not happened.
The military are not trained like the police. There is no sensitivity trng.
Nashville; Good afternoon once more sir, thanks for the links.
The situation certainly isn't contained anymore to only a few malcontent Mennonites gone rogue in southern Alberta and some wild eyed fringe elements in Ottawa it would appear.
Never fear though, I read that the Liberals have the new Safety Minister Marco Mendicino AND no less than Emergency Preparedness Minister Hangover Bill Blair on that border closure issue.
One has to imagine Hangover Bill's garage looks like he's stocking up for an old fashioned Ukrainian wedding dance in the old days if you catch my drift. My guess is he'd not do too well without a solid ration of daily grog.
Perhaps I'm wrong and am being a little harsh on Hangover Bill, but I'm still a tad agitated he spearheaded their unlawful firearm seizure program, so I'll ask forgiveness for my less than charitable outlook on the man.
Watching the CPAC this afternoon it appeared as if the NDP and Liberal MPs were reading from the same bizarre script and the PC and Bloc were full on verbally pummeling the government.
It was interesting to see the Quebec Liberal MP come out - on CTV - who gave him 13 minutes of air time no less - to use some very carefully chosen language to describe his government and Prince Hide 'n Ski in particular.
As Bill and Ted might have said, "Strange things are afoot at the Circle K" when that happens Nashville....
We'll see for sure and as you know sir I and a bunch of us will keep on praying for you and your BIL and the rest.
No joke. this is what global bc said today at noon. The new spin the media is taking is that to question the media is to question democracy itself, and it violates the Charter.
Section 2(b)-freedom of expression .. 2- Everyone has the following fundamental freedoms: b- freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media communication.
They were implying that to question the media violates this Charter right, so you better believe everything they say. They are losing control of how people are receiving their news, people are ignoring them and choosing online news or none at all. It is not so much them losing viewers, its them losing control of how the people are conditioned/programmed.
In my view, this is also a colossal win, to big to really calculate at this time, but it could really grow legs and snowball.
Dwayne, that Quebec Liberal MP has already paid the price by losing his chairmanship of the Quebec caucus. The Liberals are ruthless when it comes to keeping their MP’s in line, as learned by Jody WIlson-Raybould.

I am listening to his words now, it sounds like a resignation letter lol. I wonder how many cracks before this house of cards comes down?
For sure it sounded like a resignation letter, but again it's interesting to the nth degree that CTV gave him 13 minutes of their precious propaganda time to do that is it not?
That said, he must have seen the writing on the wall and decided he wanted to shave again at some point in his life.
I've mentioned this elsewhere, but I caught Premier Scott Moe and their Main Doctor fellow announcing the end of all mandates in Saskatchewan.
One of the reporters tried to pin him with, "Are you just caving in to the convoys by doing this?"
Moe replied something to the effect of, "Are they no longer my constituents if they're in a convoy?" While he then went on to talk about his reasoning, the reported was much less chirpy after that.
Anyways, there's cracks all over now for sure.
Let's continue to pray for bigger ones as the week continues.
I saw his Twitter post. Apparently, he resigned as the president of the Quebec caucus, but is still a Liberal. He posted in French, but this is the post I Am talking about.
I saw his Twitter post. Apparently, he resigned as the president of the Quebec caucus, but is still a Liberal. He posted in French, but this is the post I Am talking about.
So it was a resignation letter. All I can say is that, this Liberal party is not the Liberal party of years past, just a guess, but it seems like Trudeau and Butts have tried to steal the Country for themselves, and if this government had a majority we would have widespread violence at this point on time, or worse, because he is a madman and a dictator.
[quote=Nashville]I have not heard anyone mention it. We have seen the article but I’m not sure anyone really cares too much? If they do suspend the truckers licenses, they would then have to deal with towing all the trucks that would now have no driver. Towing companies have declined to tow anyone here and there are many more people that would come in and take our places or blockade the blockade such as done in Alberta.
I was surprised that the govt would consider doing that. I didn't think it would bother anyone there, but I had to ask. Thanks.
One of the full masked plants that was disrespecting the tomb of unknown solider spit it out that he was paid to be there.. face book and you tube deleted the clip .. Paid by guess who Gerald Butts !!! Such an obvious false flag yet the corrupt media is running with it..
Yeah, Trudeau said today in the house of commons Ottawa citizens "don't deserve to be confronted with the inherent violence of a swastika flying on a street corner" another doozy.

Short memory. Apparently the big one on the back of Pierre’s leather jacket, when he was riding his motorcycle around Montreal in WWII wasn’t confrontational . You know, when kids like my uncle was shipping out to fight AGAINST the Nazis, and Pierre’s dad had bought him a cushy do nothing position so he didn’t have to serve this country

Good stuff Lorne, I checked into what you say here, and quickly found a large amount of evidence to support the claim. I had no knowledge of that, too bad there isn't a photo to be found..,,I bet there is somewhere.
A word of encouragement from south of the border to all the truckers, farmers, trades, and concerned citizens that are participating, in whatever way they can, in this historic effort to restore freedom and individual responsibility.
I am in awe at the steadfastness, the integrity, the ingenuity and the politically savvy with which this protest has developed. It seems that, especially here, South of the Medicine Line, we have forgotten that protests and political movements can be MORE effective when they aren’t ugly, obscene and / or violent. We have forgotten that sincerity, creativity, kindness, humor and civility are such incredibly powerful ways to get your point across.
I most fervently hope and pray that this convoy movement is the beginning of the sea change we, the small fringe minority with unacceptable views, have been working for. When times get difficult, please remember, the whole world is indeed watching, hoping, wishing, and praying that some sanity will return to this world through your efforts, commitment and sacrifice. Thank you for standing tall for all of us.
Dutch; Evening again sir, thanks from the bottom of my heart for that.
I know that Nashville who is at ground zero camped out in front of the Canadian War Memorial in front of the Parliament buildings does check in here.
As I laid out in my post in the general forum, we're seeing some cracks in the system as well as Canadians coming together in a way I would have bet money would not/could not happen.
But it did and it continues to do that Dutch, so much so that a lifetime western separatist - me - has to reexamine my beliefs. That's truly something Dutch as my heritage is mostly Teutonic with possibly some Ashkenazi thrown in, so like they always said, "You can always tell a German, but you can't tell me much"
I keep saying this and sorry for repeating myself, but for sure to me the prayers are a huge component in all this. There was a palpable darkness in so much of what Prince Hide 'n Ski was doing to undermine the church, faith and the Canadian spirit.
Thanks sincerely again for your interest and your prayers.
The rumours seem to multiply every minute now. Raids to be expected within the hour, planned power outages and radio blackouts, police clearing out camps and fencing people out, convoy leaders arrested and charged, Justrun plans on meeting with vaccinated truckers only tomorrow. The list goes on and on but no one seems to be able to substantiate their claims. It leads to a lot of chasing ghosts and wasted time. Scare tactics have been used even before we arrived here in Ottawa. It’s not that these things can’t or won’t happen just that no one can verify the claimed statements so we can make a rational decision to counter or prepare.
Other than that it was a good day. Somehow I ended up doing two live interviews which I hope to never repeat. The second interview led to meeting another local in the affected residential zone. Once again he pleaded with us not to leave and thanked us for coming out. He walks to parliament every day now to thank everyone here and offer them a place to shower or do a load of laundry. Once again, it’s heart warming to see these people that come out to show their love and support for us. Offering whatever they can to help and to keep us here to fight. Many wish they could be apart of the convoy which we laugh at. By showing up, they have joined it. That usually puts a big grin on their face, they don’t realize it’s a mutual need for each others support.
There were a lot of reporters out today many with strategically placed cameras faced in the wrong direction. They would like you all to believe that we are losing support. That there’s less people around this week than last. While it is true there’s a few less trucks, we have not lost any ground. It seems the media believes the people are too dumb to think for themselves, that they will overlook the fact that people need to sleep or work during the week. That our protest is not a 24/7 festival, it means it has failed. Their arrogance, they actually believe the people NEED them, that they’re important.
Leaving the reporters behind we had a joyous evening hanging out in our trailer, friends we have made over the last couple weeks seemed to descend upon us one after the other. Some we had only met online or had heard about them and we could now put faces to the names. We could hear their stories in person and hear how they have been impacted by the past couple of weeks. An infectious joy has been spreading and people can hardly contain their smiles and excitement. Two years of depression and loneliness wiped out in a week by a group of strangers that gathered together to fight for each other. The “hill” has become a symbol of hope for many and failure on our part would be catastrophic to those that have seen a glimmer of light.
Once again I urge you all to civil disobedience. To peacefully stand up and declare your freedom.

If we have a look at Trudeau's cabinet, we will see that Canada's minister of health Mr Duclo, doesn't know anything about healthcare issue's, he is an economics guy. Why he is giving Canadians healthcare advice is beyond ludicrous. It begs the question.....how is he able to answer questions regarding the subject of healthcare is beyond logic.

We woke up to a flood of messages asking about wether or not we were leaving Ottawa and heading to Toronto. This is not happening, the players are just throwing out distractions that police forces and mayors have to react to. It’s easing some of our pressure here and keeping them on their toes.
It was another restful evening and spirits are still high. Trucks are still here and we haven’t given up any ground. Today has so far been like any other day which is good. We met some more friends today that are helping out, mechanics that brought their service truck here. We’ve also run into more people just walking around that recognize the BIL or our trailer and want to say hi.
BIL did an interview with Davespaper this afternoon and we’ve had more requests coming from all over the world to do more interviews. The people want to know what’s happening, what the truth is here in Canada.
There isn’t much else to say really. It’s been a calm day which is nice and people are still walking food and fuel up to the trucks.

Keep going guys, we’re winning.
Good to hear the freedom, workers' rights rally is still doing well
How does one send $100 U.S. dollars to fund the fuel the courageous truckers are burning and know it will get to them? Most of us are not broke and could afford $100. Think what a statement that could make if the 24HCF gathered $100K for fuel. Most any time we have 1000 logged in, all it would take is $100 apiece. It is time to put up or shut up. As soon s I can be assured they'll get it I'm sending it.
I second this motion.
TTT for the attention this deserves.
I'm bringing this post over from the Campfire forum, Looking for answers from you Canadians.

Outta the Toronto Star. This actually tells me they’re flailing. Doug Ford is being a dick by not supporting the truckers, but they’re also saying they can’t pull commercial licenses without due process.
‘Immediately’ end protest or face arrest, Ottawa police warn truckers Wed Feb 09 19:35:00 EST 2022 OTTAWA—Casting the spreading “Freedom Convoy” protests as a grave threat to Canada, the federal government is settling into a back-seat role in the crisis, offering to send police reinforcements to the local officials leading the responses. Federal ministers outlined the seriousness of the blockades that have now spread across the country, with blockades against COVID-19 health measures choking off key border crossings and threatening jobs, public safety and millions of dollars in trade. At the same time, police in Ottawa sent their toughest warning yet to protesters occupying the streets of the capital: clear out or face the prospect of arrest. “They’re essentially putting their foot on the throat of all Canadians,” said Bill Blair, the former Toronto police chief and federal minister for emergency preparedness, referring to the protests that have spread across the country. Yet despite that graphic assessment, the federal government made clear Wednesday that it is not prepared to invoke emergency powers to take the reins of the crisis, which in Ottawa has dragged on for 13 days as truckers and their supporters occupy the streets around Parliament Hill. “All three orders of government have a responsibility, and that’s why we’re all working together,” Blair said, when asked if the federal government would shift to playing a leading role. “We know that the law is being broken, and the police have a responsibility here to restore order and uphold the law,” he said. Premier Doug Ford also expressed confidence that police and federal border agents will be able to resolve the Ontario protests, which in addition to Ottawa also includes a blockade of the Ambassador Bridge, a vital trade corridor between Windsor and Detroit through which hundreds of millions of dollars in trade occurs every day. “The ongoing illegal occupation and blockade happening in Ontario must stop,” Ford said in a statement Wednesday. “The damage this is causing to our economy, to people’s jobs and their livelihoods is totally unacceptable. We cannot let this continue.” To that end, Ottawa police issued their sternest warning yet to protesters on Wednesday — broadcasting that they could be arrested without warning if they persist with the occupation of the city’s downtown core. Referencing the crime called “mischief to property,” the message said if the demonstrators don’t stop blocking city streets they could be arrested, charged, and have their vehicles seized and possibly forfeited. It also said those charged or convicted for participating in the demonstration may be blocked from crossing the Canada-U.S. border. “You must immediately cease further unlawful activity or you may face charges,” the message said. Responding to the Star via text message Wednesday evening, Convoy organizer Chris Barber was defiant. “We replace every driver arrested with three new drivers,” he wrote. “Call just went out.” Meanwhile, two days after the city asked Ontario and the federal government to send an additional 1,800 police officers and other personnel to aid in the crisis, officials were not clear when any additional help would arrive. Marco Mendicino, the federal public safety minister, said Wednesday that discussions continue about how many more RCMP officers will be deployed to Ottawa, but that he wouldn’t disclose the exact number of officers to protect “the sensitivity of operations on the ground.” “We’re working out the timing and the numbers because obviously we’re not going to have everyone that we’ve asked for arrive immediately, but it will be spread out over a number of days,” Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson told reporters Wednesday, two days after he appealed to the federal government for more help to “quell the insurrection.” Mendicino also said the RCMP will send more officers to Coutts, Alta., where protesters demanding the end of pandemic health measures have blocked a highway into the U.S. state of Montana. At the same time, Ottawa city councillors expressed concern over a new protest encampment that had sprung up in the parking lot of a federal building complex. City manager Steve Kanellakos told council that the parking lot was housing overflow from another encampment elsewhere in Ottawa, and said the decision to green light the new site came from the federal government following a request from Ottawa police. Councillor Theresa Kavanagh said the city’s decision to further accommodate protesters was simply enabling the demonstrations to continue. “I feel like we’re aiding and abetting. We have to come up with a way to stop this,” Kavanagh said, adding that it should fall to the federal government to monitor the encampment instead of drawing upon strained local resources. The capital is also looking at the possibility of filing a city-led injunction, days after a judge granted an injunction sought by an Ottawa woman to temporarily silence the horns wracking the downtown core. City solicitor David White said his team was prepared to proceed with such a step, but was still working with police to determine whether any potential injunctions could actually be enforced. The Chief Justice of Ontario on Wednesday approved Ottawa’s request to impose stronger penalties on downtown protesters violating the city’s noise, idling, open air fire and use and care of roads bylaws. Protesters breaking those bylaws will now be on the hook for the maximum penalty of $1,000. Kanellakos said the city was asking provinces to pursue whatever steps possible to “put pressure” on the licensing, insurance and commercial vehicle registration of trucks unlawfully parked on Ottawa streets to introduce another layer of consequences to protesters. But behind the scenes, Queen’s Park is taking a hands-off approach in dealing with the truckers, according to an internal letter obtained by the Star. In a missive to the federal deputy minister of Transport Canada from the provincial transportation deputy, the Ontario government noted local police are “the lead jurisdiction for enforcing the law and ensuring public safety at these protests.” “I want to clarify some potential misunderstanding on the applicability of driver’s licences and commercial vehicle operator permissions in a protest situation,” wrote provincial deputy Laurie LeBlanc to federal counterpart Michael Keenan. LeBlanc wrote that all sanctions the province can use, such as cancelling or suspending the registration certificates of commercial vehicles, require authorities to provide “proper notice” and give the vehicle operators a chance to respond or appeal to a tribunal. LeBlanc indicated those rules won’t change for the current protests. “This regulatory oversight will fully respect the current parameters of the programs and full legal due process,” LeBlanc wrote.

FOX Business Trudeau ripped for labeling protesters as 'Nazis' and 'fringe minority'
"'Freedom Convoy's' lead attorney Keith Wilson and former Newfoundland Premier Brian Peckford call out the Canadian prime minister for characterizing the protesters as 'Nazis' and a 'fringe minority.' "
Update . The rest of the day went by without much to talk about. We went back out to our friends in Quebec for dinner, laundry and showers. As it turns out, our friend is an amazing guitar player. It was very relaxing to listen as he played whatever he felt in the moment, making it all up as he went along.
The evening took a turn when rumours flooded in of imminent raids everywhere. We turned on to the live feeds that are constantly streaming around the convoys. All was calm as expected, at least on my end. Sometimes I wonder how some of the people around here haven’t died from stress. It’s been over two years of psychological warfare, I’m not sure why they think things would suddenly get better after we poked the hornets nest?
As our vehicle is stuck in ground zero we asked if we could get a ride around the city to double check all the “target” areas. Everywhere came up empty and off Tyler went to put out the fires and reassure everyone. I’m not sure I’m built to be around people with such emotional extremes?
We arrived back at the trailer to find we’d finally run out of propane. Thankfully our neighbour had an extra tank to lend us though it’s really not very cold here right now.
Hopefully everyone around here will have a peaceful night. It will be interesting to see what tomorrow brings.
An interesting note is that the judge made it clear that we are a peaceful protest. This puts us under our charter rights umbrella of peaceful protest.
Would this override all other laws/bylaws/etc.???

Nashville, remember, you lose around 80% of your body heat through your noggin, so wear a knit hats rather than baseball hat to conserve fuel burn rate.

All of you are 100% within your legal rights.
If they move on you, it will be against your God given right to free speech established in your charter. And even if it wasn't in your charter, all people have a right to their God given born inalienable human rights to life, liberty, pursuit of happiness.
These communists will most likely make a stupid violent move, because like all past history, tyrants/Communists never give back freedoms they take.
And when they attack, it'll be at night like they do in all raids to give the advantage to them with their night vision equipment. They moved at night to take the large fuel tank, not in the day, when more people would've been around and where thousands would've most likely surrounded them, and told them "you're not taking OUR fuel", but everyone was asleep and not walking around, again, always to their advantage, just like in a War.
Nashville, remember, you lose around 80% of your body heat through your noggin, so wear a knit hats rather than baseball hat to conserve fuel burn rate.
If that were true you could walk around butt ass naked with only a knit hat on and be toasty.
Nashville; Good morning to you sir, thanks kindly for the update once more, I hope you both slept well.
As often as possible I leave a comment on the Crackpot Farmer blog on Facebook as well so some of this is repeated here for which I apologize.
Somewhere in a comment on here I mentioned the the Viva livestream where he interviewed you both had 414,000 views... well it's 419,000 this morning and climbing.
Now for sure they're not all Canadian voters watching Nashville, that said only a true believer would think that's nothing, you know?
The message is getting out and whatever the outcome from this or whatever comes next, there's absolutely been an awakening, both with folks who call themselves God's people and those who are but don't know it yet, you know?
Have had a few people talking about some pretty rough crew taking part in prayer circles Nashville - again that's not nothing.
I'll end with my commitment to continue praying for you both and will say a sincere thanks to any and all who've joined me in doing so. It appears there's a bunch of us now who are remembering specifically you and your BIL - and all the rest of course.
Somehow to me, when I'm praying for something it's more meaningful to put a face or two into it. Likely Dr. Jordan Peterson could explain that, but I can't Nashville. Doesn't make it any less true for me though.
Thanks again for the updates, there's a bunch of us tuning in for them too.
More mandates for healthcare workers in BC, Bonnie Henry is unhinged and a liar.
She continues to give numbers, not sure how she is to be trusted as she already admitted to misrepresenting the numbers. If everyone would quit going to the hospital for a test these people wouldn't have any numbers to use against us for their ludicrous mandates.
ribka; Morning my friend, I hope the coffee's on and the fire's lit at your house and all is as well as it can be - all things considered.
Thanks for the link, it's interesting to follow some of the tentacles of the money trail isn't it?
Perhaps I'm seeing things, but to me - and once again I'm not trying to convert anyone to the way I believe here and now or then and later sir - but to me it seems more and more like Paul's thoughts in his letter to Ephesus is where we're at.
Eph. 6:12
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Funny thing is sir, when this all kicked off a couple years back I kept on quoting Matthew 11:15 to people and many thought I'd gone off my rocker.
15 He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
My response was that the two things might well be true - just because I've gone off my rocker didn't make the other part necessarily wrong now did it?
It's interesting times we're in now, that's likely an agreed upon point?
Thanks for the link and even more for the prayers.
The more folks we can get both awakened and praying, the more prepared we'll all be for whatever we're going to face next, or that's my current theory anyways sir.
Watching global BC this morning.......total bullshyte. They are still talking about getting the jab to keep everyone safe by not spreading/contracting the Wuhan. I only watch it to see what they are going to do next lol, and if I don't see it with my own eyes I would not believe it.
Henry says Physicians are spreading misinformation, but never does tell us what is the misinformation Physicians are spreading. I would suggest she is the one spreading misinformation.
673; Morning sir, I see your light is on and hope you had a good rest.
When I was watching a bunch of her presentation, I was watching the comments on the side which was interesting on a couple levels.
One thing I missed was that she stated that some of the mandates - believe this was the vax pass for restaurants, bars, hockey games and movies - was an incentive for people to get vaxed. Upon further reflection I thought that was an odd choice of words when they're usually careful about such things.
It would have made me feel better about it all if they'd have said they had some scientific backing for that mandate, but they didn't.
To me at this juncture, we're apt to start losing some of the essential services people to neighboring provinces. Maybe the BC folks think they'll be a lineup of people coming here to replace them, which historically is/was the case, but so help me how they're going to buy or even rent a house in most of BC escapes me.
I'd be lying to you if I said I wasn't disappointed, but I'd be lying again if I said I was surprised.
They - whomever the "they" are out there, have either decided they know what's best for "the rest of us" or they like the control. More than likely it's both now that I think about it.
We'll see how John, Adrian and Dr. Bonnie fare in the next bit as I suspect there'll be push back from all sides. There was a lady reporter that shoved back pretty hard already yesterday, so when that happens... well we'll see.
Still peaceful on the hill. As to why live streams are going down, FB and everything they own, plus a few others are doing whatever they can to suppress the truth of what’s happening here. Key words like “convoy” will get you shut down pretty quick. Many people here have had their accounts shut down temporarily, all groups have been removed, etc.
We’re still holding the line and remaining peaceful.
Proceedings in the house are beginning on CPAC. I suspect its going to be a good time.
673; Morning again my friend.
Just seeing now on CPAC that Jagmeet is calling on Hide 'n Ski to articulate an exit strategy for the mandates... somebody is squeezing him from the grassroots for him to do that.....
Uh oh...
Bet he gets some interesting calls and texts from both sides.
I have no idea why someone hasn't called for resignations starting at the top. Health Minister Duclo can't answer any questions regarding healthcare because he is not qualified in any way. Every Canadian should be outraged the health minister is not qualified.
I really don't think your average North American understands farmers, loggers, truckers.
Haveing been involved in all, there is a strength and independence hat comes from doing a solitary, difficult, and dangerous job.
You aren't dealing with pussified, decisions by committee types. These are people that have situations put in front of them, personally, That need delt with. Sometimes you are thinking 3 days ahead, fixing a tomorrow problem, and suddenly face a right dam now issue. No help, no one to call. Fix it!
It's not hard to piss a farmer off. Even the most laid back.
They work hard, handle huge amounts of money. Sometimes, they get to hold onto a little of it.
The mandates are going to hurt their ability to ship and receive. The convoy is increasing their problem, but they realize that the solution is to fight.
Remember Trumps trade fight with China?
Our farmers were one their targets. They thought pressuring them would cause them (our biggest lobby) to pressure Trump.
Didn't happen. Trump helped them, help him. And all of U.S.
They stood firm with him, and WE all won.
You don't see farmers personally making a scene. It's not who they are. They are busy, busting it. Solving problems. Feeding us.
Ever see the French protests. There are two groups that get it done there. Farmers, and Truckers.
Lotta differences across that pond, but the jobs and the men that are formed by them aren't so different.
On this side, we just haven't reached the point of being mad enough. Until now.
Got bless the ex-police and military who are helping the protestors, and God bless the protestors!
These three have targets on them, but I’m sure they are no stranger to adversity.
“Furthermore, the leadership team for the protesters calling themselves the Freedom Convoy includes:
Daniel Bulford, a former RCMP officer who was on the prime minister's security detail. He quit last year after refusing to get the vaccine and is the convoy's head of security.
Tom Quiggin, a former military intelligence officer who also worked with the RCMP and was considered one of the country's top counter-terrorism experts.
Tom Marazzo, an ex-military officer who, according to his LinkedIn profile, served in the Canadian Forces for 25 years and now works as a freelance software developer. “
I really don't think your average North American understands farmers, loggers, truckers.
Haveing been involved in all, there is a strength and independence hat comes from doing a solitary, difficult, and dangerous job.
You aren't dealing with pussified, decisions by committee types. These are people that have situations put in front of them, personally, That need delt with. Sometimes you are thinking 3 days ahead, fixing a tomorrow problem, and suddenly face a right dam now issue. No help, no one to call. Fix it!
It's not hard to piss a farmer off. Even the most laid back.
They work hard, handle huge amounts of money. Sometimes, they get to hold onto a little of it.
The mandates are going to hurt their ability to ship and receive. The convoy is increasing their problem, but they realize that the solution is to fight.
Remember Trumps trade fight with China?
Our farmers were one their targets. They thought pressuring them would cause them (our biggest lobby) to pressure Trump.
Didn't happen. Trump helped them, help him. And all of U.S.
They stood firm with him, and WE all won.

You are right about that, that is what the Sikh's did with their farmers strike, here in BC they showed up on the streets to support their brethren in India, they won.
Wannabebwana; Good afternoon to you sir, I trust the day's shaping up for better than for worse for you all and you're well.
Thanks so much for that article sir!
Wow that was actually real journalism!
It's good to read that our fellow Canadians - regardless of ethnic background or sometimes political affiliation too - are seeing some of this for what it is or if it's not now, what it could be.
Just now I was watching CPAC and Hon. Candice Bergen has introduced a bill to have everyone come together and lay out a plan to end mandates on a Federal level.
The Libs/Hide 'n Ski said no - the answer is to have Canadians get vaxed.
Then Hon. Candice Bergen said that 90% of Canadians are vaxed, that other countries are stopping mandates with far less percentage of vax rate, so what was his target number? Was it 100% vax before lifting measures?
He - Hide 'n Ski - didn't answer and walked out again. Please note if that's not what happened, that's what it looked like to me. The camera never follows him leaving, only goes to the speakers who have the floor or the Speaker of the House.
While I'm not surprised in any way by that, I'll admit nonetheless I find it profoundly troubling on a bunch of levels.
It leads to wild speculation that he's bought and paid for, a petulant child, has assumed the role of dictator or a number of other scenarios - or all of them frankly.
Anyways Wannabe, I can honestly say with all my heart I wanted to be so wrong about thinking that would be the case.....
Despite the interesting times we find ourselves in sir, I do hope that we can all stay the course and I do hope the rest of your day is a good one.
Everyday it gets better, with a few bumps. Trudeau stomped out of question period today, I think it was twice this week?? I couldn't find the first time, but saw it today, they try to hide it. Is he allowed to do that? wtf?

He's allowed to do whatever he wants to do, like all tyrants in past history, until the people decide it's time to find their backbone to remove them, so they can live with their God given freedom.

No, he is not allowed to do whatever he wants lol. I was wondering what the rules are for behavior in the house, do you know?
Trudeau is a narcissist, he is unable to have others criticize his behaviour. The last few days the opposition parties have continually chipped away at Trudeau and the Liberals. His reaction is to leave the House of Commons. Out of sight out of mind. Even his close ally NDP leader Jagmeet has turned on him. Trudeau’s days as Liberal party leader and Prime Minister are coming to an abrupt end.
Like they say, there is always an empty seat on the karma bus. His legacy as PM will be a dismal one, over politically correctness, several scandals, mismanagement of the economy, blackface and the accumulation of massive debt. Good riddance.
This Country seems like it is ready to go, all I see is really angry people with nothing to lose around my circle. I see a seething pot and nobody to put a lid on it, the bear continues to be poked and I wouldn't want to be law enforcement anywhere in this Country.

No, I don't know the rules of your House, but everyone knows tyrants in all of past history do not follow the laws of their country, and do what they want while removing people's freedom.
That is what this whole Covid-19 fraud is all about, control and murdering innocent civilians with the shots, and the removal of whatever freedom exists in all countries around the world.
673; Evening again my friend, I almost called you today but got sidetracked repairing a vacuum hose thing and the day got away on me.
I think that's actually one of the more brilliant aspects of the trucker's rally in that they're over the top peaceful, passive and cheerful.
It would appear that Prince Black Face and his Evil Overlords were likely expecting that and frankly have no clue how to deal with this.
As noted too in a post above regarding the chopped up statement that Hon. Candice Bergen made today, it came from CTV who went from full on falsehoods - nothing to see here reporting to full on falsehoods about it being a massive Klann meeting, so why anyone takes anything they say at face value I'm not sure, you know?
Again if the Cons. said that with no conditions then they misread the mood of the country big time, but I suspect it's a chop job - how much though we'll see.
I watched Evan Solomon get clearly annoyed with Randy Boisanault - the lone Lib from Edmonton - who would not answer any question with anything that remotely resembled an answer.
Solomon was pounding them on an exit strategy as was Jagmeet today too, so it sounds like that's the new flavor of the day.
Meanwhile the auto plants are shutting down and the value of Hangover Bill Blairs garage full of high test liquor has tripled one suspects.
Fascinating day overall for a Thursday though for sure.
Let's all remember to pray for Nashville and his BIL as usual.
Even Fox and Tucker Carlson was giving the turdo system hell tonite. Alberta dumped their mandates he is on his way out... once that's done the Canadians need to look real hard at their LEO s that need the boot also. Here in the states the Canadians are showing us what we need to do. Mb
Obama's, ( Trudeau's lighter skinned brother) former Assistant Secretary of Home Land Security tweeting out today. Calling for the vandalization truckers' vehicles
fibka; Good evening again my friend, I trust the day behaved itself for you and you're all well.
It's interesting to see the divide sometimes between those who've been in power and want to flex their wisdom and then those who've really and truly been there and done that.
As someone who's both been there for towing rigs with airbrakes - the new ones don't turn off as easily as the old ones by the way - and had bad things happen on big bridges - blew my shifts in a 10 ton and stalled traffic on the Port Mann Bridge in Vancouver - I can only imagine the logistics of all that.
First slash the tires, then empty the tanks??
Arresting the drivers would be first on my list, but what do I know?
Why are we slashing the tires when we want to move the trucks after?
Do we have a deal with a tire wholesaler?
So very many questions with all that...
All the best this evening regardless of my questions ribka.
Juliette Kayyem......that's Barry Soetoro speaking through her with Rice sitting at his side strategizing how to bring the USA into this "Don't let a good crisis go to waste".
I'd sure hate to have a truck parked on that bridge. Bridges aren't designed for sitting loads they are designed to support short term load weights of moving traffic, hmm? Mb
ElkSlayer91; Good evening to you sir, I hope the day was tolerable for you and you're well.
If as you say there's 3 of them conspiring to send out a tweet of such incredible ineptitude, I'd opine that neither of the three as we used to say, should try out for Mensa any time soon.
I'd sure hate to have a truck parked on that bridge. Bridges aren't designed for sitting loads they are designed to support short term load weights of moving traffic, hmm? Mb
Yeah, there's just a little [cough] more separation between trucks (reducing the total weight on the bridge at any one given time) when traffic is flowing.
The engineers have to model a traffic jam or wreck when they design the structure that would create this same situation, so they're good.

It's more than 3. Half the politicians (NAZIs) in every government around the world, and most likely half of the fake conservatives, making it 75%+ total of all politicians, are on the same page with those presently attempting to destroy freedom around the world.
This is a world wide effort push of the oligarchs spanning across all governments. We are witnessing, and living through what will be the largest GENOCIDE to have ever happened on this planet, since the flood.
Somehow, these so-called healthcare professionals have been given the authority to control us, and Politicians the keys to give us freedom or lock us down. I think we can all see how it could be used as a ruse as required to control us through fear and mandates, our economy, to sow social discord among us, for their gain, not ours etc.
Is there anyone that thinks these mandates are for our protection? Anyone who hasn't gotten the jab by now isn't going to, in a similar way those who think this is about our safety wont be swayed to think otherwise.
Trudeau is pure evil and nothing more than a puppet for the globalist elite at the highest level.
Commie light comes out, grovels about everything but lifting the mandates, a pos globalist, hope he gets a jammer on live TV. Trudeau is going to come out of this still in charge, the Conservatives rolled over on its supporters. In the end there wont be anyone accountable, that took them a few days to figure out how to make that happen. Trudeau and Ford are in the same Camp, they all are fugging trash.
I'd sure hate to have a truck parked on that bridge. Bridges aren't designed for sitting loads they are designed to support short term load weights of moving traffic, hmm? Mb
I have been "a truck parked on that bridge". Backups on the bridge were common back in the day. It took a long time to clear customs, and traffic would get backed way up the bridge.
Story,
Sitting there, way up, way out. Traffic going by would shake the crap out of you. And im not fond of heights.
CB on, guys bullschidting, some brilliant jackwagon comes on,
"Just think, this bridge was built by the lowest bidder, using materials they sourced from the cheapest supplier, put together buy the cheapest labor they could get, and pushing them the whole time to get it finished."
I just wrote my MP and informed him he can shove my support for him up his azz, pos no show. I send letters and get no response, I write an MP on the other side of the Country and they get back to me within 30 minutes.
I know it’s been a bit since my last update. Things are getting crazy busy on our end. A lot of people are knocking at our door now when they recognize the trailer. Yesterday we had five or six interviews and this morning the BIL was followed around for a few hours by a news crew from NY.
It was another quiet night amid all the rumours of a guaranteed raid. It was nice to sleep in a bit this morning after a late night again. We had breakfast on the street in front of parliament. Eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns and toast, it was quite the spread.
A lot of people have already started arriving in preparation for tomorrow’s party. Sounds like it will be even bigger again this weekend over last. We’re all getting pretty excited.
Everyone has heard that Ford has called a state of emergency and that the GSG has been frozen. So far GSG has been adamant that nothing has been seized and not to worry. There are also reports of OPP showing up at the doors of those giving us support through social media. They are literally the conscience police, just another show of how far this country has deteriorated.
We’ve seen more military and police stepping out and supporting us country wide. I think more will follow suit.
Bylaw has started issuing parking tickets now and threatening a new one every three hours, everyone’s getting a good laugh out of it. I think everyone has come to the conclusion that this is absolutely the “hill to die on”. We don’t care what they do to us at this point.
On that point we are calling every Canadian to stand up. I don’t think this is a fight that will pass anyone by now, we need everyone.
Have a good day all, I’ll try and get back on top of up updates.

I posted the premier's live feed. That's all. The words underneath were what he said. The whole announcement will probably be made available online.
Edited to add:
I posted the premier's live feed because of what Dwayne posted to me regarding the state of emergency. I know there is a lot of anger.

One imagines that there is tremendous pressure behind the scenes by those truly at the levers of power to have this all go away.
Interesting times for sure, but I'd have to think that this would end Ford's political career or at least scar it deeply?
For the people in BC.......I just received word from a friend who said he heard on CBC....Stewart Phillip, Chief of BC union of indian Chiefs says that Trudeau move in and bust up the convoy. This is the guy who blocks roads, bridges, all over the Province, and has promoted hate unfettered, and is a perfect example of how the rule of law has been azz raped in this Country, it doesn't get more ironic than that, unbelievable.

Who gave a damn about millions wanting to work when the whole country was quarantined. Businesses went down the tubes. All because the government was either scared or complacent in a scam.
Yeah right. As usually they don't care about anything but power.

The police now have the power to act. It will be interesting to see if they exercise that power. They have been sitting on their hands for too long already. I am wondering how many truckers will hold out if their trucking licenses are put on the line or they face fines that could cripple them.
Trudeau speaking now......All this pos represents are those that took the jab, and that is it. He threw all other Canadians under the bus and he openly states he does not tolerate them, then he smiles. Thanks whoever voted for this antichrist sob, hope your happy, there is your fruit.
"Trade across the borders, and the jobs that the trade provides, are in danger. Trucker's jobs and lives don't matter, take the shot.

I'm using the above posting to demonstrate the outright hypocrisy for everyone to see.
Read the bold I printed above.
See the hypocrisy with these NAZIs? You, the peasants, don't matter is what they are stating as clear as day.
To those who claim to love the lord, does this mean anything to you?
Rev: 13;16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads. 17; And that no man may buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
I'm not saying this is the mark of the beast, nor am I saying that it isn't, see any similarities, in any way??
Just pointing to your willingness to drop your critical thinking skills and throw your fellow man under the bus. For stupid people only..... I'm not referring to the Vaccine.

Police came to make arrests and this happened❤️....who would have ever thought Canada would be leading the world, but they are...Holding The Line...this is tyranny and enslavement vs God and liberty! This is not a fight against mandates; this is a fight to liberate humanity...
Freedom convoy voted to stay on bridge. State of Emergency kicks in at midnight.
Several videos, and links to follow.
Police already attempted to make arrests, and were surrounded by people.
My apologies for calling you a retard. Good finds.
673, you're good. I know the true Christians here know who I am, and I don't need them to stand up for me and get attacked for it. I'm a big boy, and can handle myself quite well when the need arises.
Windsor ON students walking out, and A LOT of them. This government has created multi-generational mistrust, it won’t take years to build back any trust in politicians, it will take decades.

You’re forgetting, they don’t care if we trust them. At this point, it looks like they want to solidify power such that they can rule unopposed. Then, who needs elections?
Slavyanka and I were just talking about that. The fact that there are few to no politicians we actually want to represent our interests.
It’s been 25 years since I actually voted FOR a politician I actually wanted, rather than simply voting to get rid of the one that was already in power.

Covid-19, confirmed “orders” of vaccine doses per person, 2020
Canada – 9.5 Austrailia – 5.5 Britain – 5.5 USA – 3 EU – 2.75 Japan – 2.25
Source: Duke Global Health Innovation Centre; GAVI; World Bank
Now, do you think these NAZIs might have been planning on killing a few of the citizens? 9.5 doses they are planning to give to “each” person in Canada.
That ought to be enough to create some “adverse” reactions…….like death, aye?
You don’t think ole Turdeau might be dumping in his pants with this info getting into the public domain, do you?
Oops……it is in the public domain now, isn’t it?
9.5 doses ordered for per Canadian…….step right up and get your………..
This one is a nuclear bombshell. It is fresh off the press. Today.
Canada (Justin Trudeau) gets a check every time Moderna and Pfizer sells a product.
IE….Trudeau profits directly from every jab you take…it’s the royalty that keeps on giving and it’s the reason that Trudeau has bought 10 vaccines for every man woman and child in Canada…which is far more than any country in the world.
These vaccines are now completely ineffective if they ever were as they were created to make antibodies towards a now long extinct version of the spike protein by the way.
So with all the must watches we present here at the tent….this one is an uber must watch!
Good morning brothers and sisters to the north. Just checking in this morning to see what if anything happened overnight with the threatened actions by trublow. Hope all is well and I firmly believe you all are setting a large precedent for the US and the world. A lot of eyes are upon you.
I am almost of the mindset that your (Freedom Convoy) actions are a modern day “ Shot heard round’ the world”
Stand fast and Godspeed.
Listened to the Dr. just a minute ago. Ironic that he said “Shot heard round’ the world at the end” .
I probably should have viewed the video before I posted.Don’t need any plagiarism charges leveled at me

I wish I was wrong in my above statement from yesterday, but news just came out I am right, unfortunately.
1:2,300 - One(1) Death per 2,300 doses given from the shots.
We are looking at matching the total death level across the world of Chairman Mao.
This does not even include long-term death rates which takes time for those numbers to develop, 4-5+ years, from autoimmune diseases that create cancers and other diseases.
This will be economically devastating as businesses will be difficult to stay open due to no available employees.

Rumble — In an emergency broadcast, Dr. David Martin joined the Stew Peters Show on Friday to expose the real reason why Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is refusing to negotiate with his constituents on the Canadian bioweapon mandates. Stew Peters stated that in April of 2020, Martin highlighted a quote from Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, where he stated “Normality as it was before will not come back full-on until we get a vaccine for this." With no evidence that a vaccine has ever been successful since Pfizer’s first Coronavirus spike protein vaccine patented in 1990, this statement was unfounded. What Trudeau didn't tell his Canadian constituents or the world was that Canada controlled the mRNA vaccine platform and was destined to become enriched by both Moderna and Pfizer’s partnership with BioNTech. Trudeau knew that the gene therapy being promoted as a "vaccine" was an economic win for Canada and therefore Trudeau’s Canada had the monopoly on the world’s adoption of mRNA gene therapy shots. He wasn’t promoting science, he was promoting the Canadian economic interest in the gene therapy illegally promoted as a vaccine. "Canada has a bad history of this," Dr. David Martin told Stew Peters. "We've had our Kent States, and we've had our situations when the legal and then military actions taken against citizens end very badly." "These people wrote this because they knew tyrants would be here one day, and look, here they are," Stew Peters told Dr. Martin, regarding the clear instruction given by the U.S. Constitution as to how Americans are to deal with a runaway tyrannical government.
I dropped by our local farmers market today. 2 weeks ago when I was there I noticed one of the vendors had a sign on his booth “Closed - gone to Ottawa”. I stopped and talked to him today.
He went with his daughter, who asked him to take her. He said the convoy was amazing, people cheering on overpasses - thousands of them. When they got to Ottawa they got one phone number that connected them to everything they needed. Local citizens were providing rooms to sleep, free food and other supplies.
The atmosphere at the protest was just as amazing, people cheering and dancing.
A good friend of his is still there and was at the seizure of the fuel. The CBC showed up first (what a coincidence) and got set up. Then the cops moved in, in full riot gear and grabbed about 5 jerry cans. It was a total photo op.
There’s a local protest happening today starting at 1 pm. I’m going to go to it. Unlike in Toronto, I think it’s important to drive my car in the convoy to add to the numbers.
One thing that strikes me about this is - why aren’t we hearing about a Covid spike in Ottawa with hospitals being overwhelmed? That many unmasked people, with others moving in and out on the weekend is the definition of a “super-spreader”. Yet all we’re hearing about is how the gov’t needs to be obeyed! Hmmm?

I am also going to join a freedom rally today, I made up more signs over the last few days. I know people who have lost their jobs or had their income curtailed greatly, no need to go into the lives that have been destroyed by these tyrants.
I look at it like this......all of the freedom loving Canadians enemies have been exposed,,,,, and here it is......they were unaware of who their enemies were, not anymore.
If there’s lots of spelling mistakes, my hands are still half frozen.
Great turnout last night. It was raining all night but spirits remained high and everyone had a really good time. It was bigger last night than any other Friday so far. Saturdays are always the big days as people are travelling on the Friday and Sunday. It was a mix of live performers, short speeches and music for hours on end. Many families joined in with young children knowing that this is a safe area.
Rained turned to snow and the wind picked up this morning. While not overly cold the snow is coming in sideways right now. The morning stared with the second day of the Jericho march around the parliament buildings and the Supreme Court. The ground more than doubled from yesterday with several hundred people marching.
After the march the group gathered on parliament hill to spell out “FREEDOM”. Afterwards we enjoyed a nice breakfast of orange slices, pop tarts, granola bars, coffee, juice, chocolate milk, hash browns, eggs, bacon, beans and toast.
It’s shaping up to be another great day here on the hill. If you’re the praying type, the Windsor protest needs all the help they can get right now! If you can make it down there to film or stand up with them that would be great.
Take care all and if you are attending a protest anywhere, keep it calm and peaceful. There’s nothing that pisses off the government more.
The article below is a perfect example of irony. An entire group of people is controlled by a few at the top, sound familiar? Native people need to break out from under what is a dictatorship, and they don't even realize it.
Step out of the control people, what has happened to your individuality? otherwise known as freedom.
It's -5° here this morning but got up to 8° yesterday so "the snow was walking" as my late father used to say.
It currently isn't windy which is a nice change.
When I woke up in the night I remembered to pray for you both and did this morning too.
Think that's about it for here, though I see that buddy is now at the neighbor's place and he might need a recoil pad installed on his new .350 Rem Mag build that I helped facilitate. We've not shot it yet but from the look of the work Greg up a Corlane's did a fantastic job.
I just hope buddy will be okay with a Decelerator and not want a Kick-Eeze like I did for the neighbor... swore that'd be the very last Kick-Eeze I'd ever try to install - and swore a fair bit whilst attempting to grind it too Nashville!
Have a good one sir, I'm still praying for you both.
673; Good morning my friend, I hope you had a good night and you're all well up north.
As you and I have discussed, I've had some interactions with one of the people mentioned in that piece you've linked. Through business mostly, some were in the same family.
Anyways, I'll refrain from repeating my comments from our phone conversation on open forum, but no, all isn't as it seems always.
I'm hoping that some of the FN folks are beginning to awaken with all this too for sure.
That's because the Kick-eez is the epitome of a piece of crap! Supposed to be a rally at the Roosville crossing today. We wanted to go but have already committed to another meeting today. Wish I could be there. GD
I love this happening for you in Canada. Above was a statement on the natives up there. Here in the states they get free everything so they just about all vote liberal. They won’t bite the hand that feeds them. They also get 1000 dollars to get the fax and get a van card as proof. Don’t count on them for help. Edk

The article I posted, is simply a hit piece on the freedom convoy, by the media using a highly visible group of people as fodder. Native people in this Country have been silenced by their so-called leadership, they have been carved out of the mainstream society at large by the promise of money and control. Like other Canadians, many of the Native people are waking up to how they have been manipulated by a dictatorship. I have no problem telling my kids to wake up, I see no difference here.
Tribal leaders will always sell out their tribe for the highest bidder. I ve worked don reservations over 20 years and the fraud and corruption and hidden child sexual abuse was mind boggling

CBC is putting all their eggs in one basket today. They look like they are about to go down big time, this is a pivotal day in the relationship between Canadian Citizens and the false media in this Country, its quite unbelievable unless you view it in real time for yourself...total and complete lies.

Tucker reported yesterday that Gretchen Whitmer has offered heavy equipment to help clear the bridge. With the RCMP outnumbered, the military unwilling to get involved, and Turdeau being pushed by Biden to end the protest, I hope and pray I never see foreign police on Canadian soil.
Everything the media is saying about the protestors, is exactly what the government is doing to the populace...terrorists, holding people hostage, fear tactics, misinformation, taking away freedoms..everyone can see its all lies.
The NCC fenced off the war memorial last week. They said that we would desecrate the memorial. They never stepped in beforehand and they only stepped in after to make it look like we were the bad guys. This was all after there had already been a 24hr in person guard installed (volunteered) for three days/nights to protect the memorial. The friends of the guy on guard swapped him out with 24hr direct video surveillance since. People have swept and shoveled the snow off the memorial up until the fence went up.
Today a group of veterans came to the memorial, disassembled the fence, shoveled snow and then led a large group of people in prayer and the national anthem.

just got back from our local protest. Met in a small city 40km away. I’d say 4-500 vehicles, trucks, cars, tractors. Lots of people had their kids.
The convoy pulled out about 12:45. We were maybe in the first 100 vehicles. We drove through 3 cities at about 35-40km an hour (tractor speed). Lots of people on the roadside waving flags and smiling.
I had strapped a 5 gal jerry can to the roof of my Prius. Lost count of how many people saw it, smiled, pointed, then gave me a thumbs up!
Saw two drivers going the other way give us the finger. One old guy shovelling snow gave us a thumbs down. Saw a few drivers with their mask on. Whether abject stupidity or their own small counter-protest, I don’t know.
Stopped at a railway crossing for a Via Rail train (our national passenger rail). The Engineer gave us a good long blast on the horn!
After 2.5 hours we peeled off as the convoy went by about 2 blocks from our home. An hour later we can still hear the honking as they continue rumbling by.
Talked to a native guy at the startup. He said “Now you know how we feel. He’s been screwing us for years!” There were a lot of other natives there, too (we’re 1/2 hour from 6 Nations, one of the largest reserves, population-wise).
From all of the videos of the freedom rally looks to be a large contingent of women and POC and FN at all of the rallies. Hard to paint it as white supremacy by Justin. That's why the CBC. refuses to cover it in a unbiased manner

I saw the war memorial on viva Frei today. Looks like the freedom rally participants desecrated it again with flowers
A transport truck travelling east or west across Canada has to cross the Nipigon River Bridge—top of Lake Superior an hour east of Thunder Bay—a there is no other traffic link. There are 3 large truck fuel stations on Hwy 11-17 which bypasses the downtown area of Nipigon (population less than 2000). Not unusual to have 40 or 50 tractor-trailer units parked near the fuel stations—Petro-Can, Husky and Tim Hortons. In severely bad Winter road conditions could see a couple of hundred trucks parked locally. Railway street is the name of the old hwy which until 1967 ran thru the centre of town. I get a text this morning from a friend that the Nipigon River Bridge was shut down by truckers? It’s -32 below zero this morning and I thought WTF. I check Facebook 1st thing and there is an announcement from the OPP to avoid Railway street in Nipigon. I live 40 miles outta town so I’m not driving anywhere in this weather even if the SUV will even start. I call my fishing buddy in town—he hadn’t heard anything but said he would go and check it out. Calls me back and says there is one truck—exactly one —parked on side of railway street. A Sikh standing outside his truck with a sign—‘Freedom Canada’. Nobody else around-the Sikh fella with a bright yellow wrap on his head said to my friend even the OPP wouldn’t stick around just told me not to park on bridge. LOL
My wife and I have been watching some of the live stream. For an "insurrection", this sure doesn't look like what I would envision as an insurrection. Lol. The good folks up there are super polite, articulate and seem to be keeping everything clean and orderly.
Quite unlike the BLM and antifa scum that burn, loot, destroy, trash, assault or murder everywhere they go.
Our thoughts and prayers are with our Canadian friends trying to make peaceful changes!

Just curious. How much fuel do those big rigs burn while idling for heat?
As said, about a gallon per hour if idling, but almost all of them have either Espar or Webasto diesel fired cab heaters, at least Northern spec trucks. Those use as little as a gallon per day. Some trucks use APU’s for heat and AC, which are small rail mounted Diesel engines, that can operate the HVAC loads of the cab for a small fraction of the fuel of idling a 15 Liter engine.
I am really proud of the response from the Citizens of Canada, from what I view online or in person. Its an interesting look into "what makes Canada tick". I believe the racism card the left has been leveraging here in Canada, and elsewhere has been crushed, their narrative never existed as fact, its all fake. I think the entire World could use themselves a dose of freedom.

blanket; Good evening to you sir, I trust the day was decent to you and all who matter to you are well.
This is a video from one of the legacy media up here - Global - and true to form part of their header is "purported veterans".
That said, they did air it and it isn't totally negative - and - at about 2:00 there's a Quebecois vet who refuses to talk to them because, "you guys don't do a good job".
We can hope that with every report such as this, there's some folks who are waking up and beginning to question what they're being told. It's going to be a tough pill for many to swallow for sure though, so it might take time.

Ive been in the bush trapping throughout most of these convoys, all I can say is thank god for truckers! Its even hit Whitehorse now. Every Saturday they have a convoy through town. At this point, if your not supporting these people, then your part of the problem.
ribka; Good morning my friend, thanks so much for that.
The fellow who reads from the Bible at 14:00 mark I know or better said used to know quite well. Anything I've ever known of him or about him was good. He's salt of the earth.
The protest I attended yesterday was about the same amount of people as last weekend, so 500+. From what I can tell, there is a growing support among Citizens to drop the mandates and that we have been led down the garden path, basically, the party is over for the left wing Commie's.
There were three counter protestors who had the courage to wander the crowd, the one guy was taking pleasure in telling people to just F*** off, lol.
I overheard a gentleman explain to his kids why they were there, it made me think of my now grown Son who was with me attending the rally for the same reason, it causes me to reflect. Then I hear my Son saying thank you to the Sikh truck drivers who stop in front of us, he says thank you in Punjabi, which also causes me to reflect on the fine people our Country has attracted. I am going to attend a community meeting in a few minutes, the community is a rural one so I cant wait to hear what the skinny is there. Hardly anyone around here is Vaccinated, so many lives have been detoured or ruined altogether, it has shaped my view considerably because of that.
Cops moved them off the Windsor/Detroit bridge, they took over the Sarnia/Port Huron bridge.
There aren’t enough cops to address the protests in Ottawa and Toronto plus the 14 land border crossings in Ontario. If the FN get involved, they can handle 3 or 4 on their own and the feds will keep their distance.
Have you seen the videos ? The cops and government are so FN’dumb. They are now the blockade. Lol.. cement barrier’s and swat vehicles and a line of 200 cops … yep no protesters left but the crossing is still shut down.. haha only a idiot in civic politics can think they won .. the minute it opens up for traffic the convoy will roll back in ..

100% agreed. I said that to Slavyanka. How are the cops going to ensure that every truck they let through is going across and not going to just stop and block it again? Just doing the checks will slow things up.

It would be so easy to gum up a crossing. Just have trucks show up with either wrong, incomplete or rejected paperwork. Anything that requires them to be pulled aside. The space to pull trucks aside is VERY limited, and they can’t let them through. It would take less than an hour and 20 trucks. They can reject the truck and send it back to the US, but that takes an escort vehicle.
Pretty easy to get them running again, then guard them. I wouldn't be surprised if they show up at individuals homes with warrants obtained by fraudulent information.
Makes the blood boil. Any cop who would do this is nothing but a paid thug and should be treated that way. People used to wonder how Hitler got so many soldiers to enforce his orders.....now we know.
Awesome bunch of doctors. I have been following them for months now, and they have been a great source of information that has been proven right over and over again. Dr Pierre Kory and the FLCCC along with Dr Zelenko have also been great sources of information.
I went to a meeting yesterday that was hosted in a rural community. I was quite interested in the topic and I see I wasn't the only one, the place was packed with over 300 people, I never saw a mask. The speakers were Constitutional experts, to organic farmers and everything in between.....there is a massive groundswell of people becoming "woke" to the tyranny trying to pry into every aspect of our lives, pay attention.
I am still processing what I took in. The query was posed to all, why are our children not taught the "Charter of rights" in school? If you give a shyte, provide your child with a copy of our Charter and read it yourself, you will see how we are being attacked through a loss of freedoms. This Government have no intentions of restoring our freedoms to pre fake pandemic times, nope, and the truckers did something about it and messed the globalists plans for us, that is why they are fighting so hard.
The truckers have educated the populace of Canada more than any University in the Country.
Doug Ford is on the tele right now showing his true colors, defending only the Vaccinated, pure and simple, he just said...whatever the PM wants....is there anyone still confused??
Trudeau is about to call the "emergencies act", so there you have it, this Trudeau is pure evil, does not believe in the same creator who's principle this Country was founded upon. "Just watch me" his Father was famous for saying, just watch him, is what I say........this is more important than dropping mandates. Know who your neighbor is, know your friends and keep close track of your enemies.

I figured he would do just that. He's taking orders from the WEF and they wont give in easily. I've thought for some time now that the USA is the real fly in the ointment. They havent been subjected to the mandates the way we have in most parts of the country anyway. How the WEF plans to deal with them I dont know, but it would escalate into a shooting war there before they could take over. Since the liberals only hold a minority government, isnt there some way an election can be forced??
Saturday night was huge. A lot of people coming out despite it being a cold and windy day. Once again the hill was filled with families and grandparents taking part in another weekend of celebration. There is still no shortage of anything up here. Good food, hot drinks and endless smiles litter the streets. Music and passionate speeches filled the air well into the night. Some more small convoys arrived from all over Canada. While they won’t be able to make it up onto the hill to park they have found other places throughout the area and have come in to help bolster numbers and swap out with others that need to return home for a bit.
Yesterday morning I joined in with a group of about 150-200 people for day three of the Jericho march. The loop encompasses the three parliament buildings along with the Supreme Court. That seems fitting. After the march we stood in line for an hour waiting for a small pancake and two little sausages which was donated by the PPC. I think they well underestimated the amount of people that were going to show up. While Sunday’s are usually fairly quite as most people are travelling back home, yesterday was an exception. Several hundred people stayed for the day to listen to more speeches and continue the celebration. I didn’t stay too long on the hill. I took the rest of the afternoon off to relax. I ended up meeting some new friends who invited me for a coffee on them. We spent a few hours talking before they took off for home in Toronto. I went back to the trailer to lay down, I was soon informed that I wouldn’t have time. The BIL had made plans for us through our friends in Gatineau. Some of their friends had invited us over to watch the super bowl. It was a bit strange considering neither of us follows sports of any kind. Off we went and soon we found ourselves making friends once again. Quick showers before the game started helped us relax. The amount of food they had, I assumed that it was going to be a big party. It turned out the the two of us were the only guests. Ribs, chicken, potatoes, veggies, apple pie, tea and an endless supply of snacks filled us to the brim. We finished up the game and decided we would do out update from their place. BIL’s phone started acting up and wouldn’t let him film his update, saying there wasn’t enough storage left. We opened up some space on his phone, more than enough to record the video but his wouldn’t have it. We filmed on my phone but couldn’t figure out how to open the file on his phone. Apple and Android really do not like each other. It doesn’t help that neither of us are very tech savvy so we after an hour of trying we gave up. It turned out to be a good thing as new updates came in right away which would have countered some of the news we would have put out. Our hosts gave us a ride back to our trailer around midnight. As tired as I was it still took a while to fall asleep.
This morning I decided to sleep in. I ended up missing the Jericho march but the BIL made it out. I can hear music outside from here in the trailer so there must be some people arriving on the hill. It’s another cold day here but it’s blue skies on sun. I’ll probably relax here in the trailer for a while longer. There has been more social interaction in the past three weeks than I usually get in a year I think, it’s surprisingly exhausting.

Both sides of government are playing good cop, bad cop, evil is present on both sides. I would encourage all to watch CPAC today and see how the house of commons vote go's to end mandates. That is about to begin shortly.
All levels of government are thick with the evil that got us here in the first place. Busy beavers trying to hide their trail of deception, and it looks like the brown shirts are beginning to take shape outside of our parliamentary elected.
Pierre Trudeau was seen by many eyewitnesses to have adorned a Nazi swastika either on his arm or on his back. I recently learned of this, but couldn't find a pic, I am still looking and it would be great to find something.
What is Trudeau jr trying to hide?? ............what is the end game for his gun laws? did you vote for him?

Hi friend. I hope you're doing well. It's gone steady down hill, hasn't it?

Keep the faith.
We have survived yes, but its gone downhill faster than I would have ever believed possible. When they started closing churches and so few had any problem with that I knew we were in trouble.
It's obvious the tyrant, or any part of the government, is not about to "give" any sovereign body right" back to the truckers. NAZI/Communist never give back the freedoms they steal, and no time in history has freedom been won by asking, 99% of the time.
With that being said, to win the war, sometimes you have to regroup from a battle. I'm wondering if sitting there with your assets available to be taken right out from under you, If it'd be better for everyone to just go home, and let the NATL sit in begin from the truckers, farmers, ALL trades and whoever else could just bring the whole economy to an absolute shutdown. They can't force you to work, and the government would collapse at that point.
Like stated in above posts, the people have a good grasp on the fraud now all over the world, and that was the most difficult part, actually, getting people educated with the truth. The leaders could still control the movement, and call the shots, just from the homes.
I know the leadership has military and ex police running the war/game plan, but I really don't think you have anything to gain any longer by staying. Talk of war powers just risks you getting hurt where you won't be able to stay in the fight for the long haul. You're sitting ducks with no fire power.
A national sit in will kill it, and break their backs. The entire nation would rise up when shelves are empty. With JIT inventory, it goes parabolic in 3 days
There are enough truckers, farmers, and all trades alone could accomplish this.
Hell, just the trades staying home would shut it all down.
That really is the next logical step, before taking it hot, which everyone wants to avoid.
I wish I could talk to the leaders, and float a few suggestions.
One of my best friends in from Toronto, been here about 20 years and a top level marketing guy, from running fortune 500 INC marketing campaigns, and it "is" about marketing the right message until they won't listen to anything. When all options have been depleted, that's when the time comes all men have to face, if not now, when?
Where is the military on this as far as where you think they would stand?

Yes, society is so morally broke now. The founding principles......what's that to today's society? What is integrity, and on and on.....and that is the reason the world is where it is.......the media has won the brainwashing campaign.
Some youth will wake up, because their parents are being forced to wake up, but that takes time, and there really isn't any time for education in this scenario, not even a Cliff Notes version. It takes time to convert those you can save from the endless brainwashing.
But empty shelves with no food in 3 days has a way of forcing your opponents hand, and putting them on defense.
Remember, you can only win your freedom from an offense stance. Defense never wins.
Also, the tyrants keeping the bridge closed after it was cleared proves they were lying about protestors damaging the economy. Government showing everyone they are doing the damaging.
I'm sure that's the leading story in the media, govt keeping the bridge closed for no reason. /sarcasm.
Well, well, I was just informed that some pos has gained access to Gofundme and sent warnings of dire consequences to 22 individuals, some from a prominent University and a group from a legacy news network. I guess that means someone from GFM has leaked personal info LOL, good luck with any future endeavors lol.
Could you give us an update about what, if anything, that you are being told by the police? With the EA about to be invoked, have you been instructed to pack up and go home?

I expect better of most people here. Insults don't help things.
You've spent the past two years insulting those who questioned the facist Trudeau government , shutting down businesses, churches, travel and now you're playing the poor little victim? This is typical of cowardly passive aggressive types. Poor baby.
I expect better of most people here. Insults don't help things.
No insult intended, I'm serious.
Do you think that I have a hotline to Ottawa? The protesters behave better than most of the posters here.
I would like to hear if they have been told anything by the authorities.
Fair enough, its just you remind me of the kid who used to make the school buzzer noise with his voice, sending us all in early from recess. It took quite some doing, but we finally figured out who it was, carry on.

Trudeau has scheduled a 4:30 p.m. EST announcement and media availability on Monday, alongside several key ministers including Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, Justice Minister and Attorney General David Lametti, Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino, and Emergency Preparedness Minister Bill Blair.
Just watched a CTV interview where they were asking what they termed was an expert - a Doctor from Etobicoke - about Skidoo Doug's announcement to lift pretty much everything by March 01st.
She did her best to monger all the fear she could, but he said that actually the vax passport could be gone already!!!
Funny how the message/science can change so much overnight isn't it?
If one would believe in such things, it'd be a miracle, but since we just believe in the science we can take heart knowing it's now changed albeit rapidly.
Was interesting anyways I thought - will link it for anyone wanting to watch, but that's the short version.
A cynical person might think this should give Prince Hide 'n Ski a reason to do likewise without declaring anything, you know?
Dwayne you probably saw that the super bowl was yesterday. Very few masked among the tens of thousands of people in attendance . None of the privileged rich politicians or celebrities in attendance were masked despite the California mask mandate, Goes to show what a joke this has been.
ribka; Good afternoon again my friend, thanks for the comment.
While I did know that the super bowl was yesterday, I am somewhat odd as a Canadian in that I don't follow any sports on any level, though I did learn enough about volleyball, basket ball and competition jump rope when our girls were involved in it. Hey, I learned to appreciate jazz too for our eldest and her boyfriend at the time, now her husband of 6 years... but I digress.
The point I have been attempting to gently make to as many as want to listen is that if we are going to suggest something as simple as "follow the science" then we have to question whose science we're following first and then what causes the differences in interpretations of how to deal with that science.
While it's unpopular or perhaps fatal to suggest, I'm not anti-vax in all circumstances as everyone should make as informed a decision about whatever medical issue might or might not be coming their way and then act accordingly. I respect both sides of that position and understand it in more depth than I'm willing to discuss on open forum, you know?
Where I take issue - as Ben Dichter said this morning - is mandatory vax rules which limit, suspend or have any effect on a Canadian's rights and freedoms in any way, shape or form.
Even though I profess to be a Christian who is right of center for sure politically, I'm awake or astute enough to grasp that we need to cling to some of those basic principals or it's going to be used against either me and my kids or my kids and their kids when I'm gone. Again I'll say that I'm not attempting to convert anyone to the way I believe, merely attempting to articulate where I'm coming from and nothing more.
Peripheral issues that I have with the legacy media and most politicians from both sides of the aisle reading from the same script provided them is another windmill for another day, attached at the hip to the current situation as it obviously might be in my opinion.
On this and a lot of things, including my faith for sure sir, it's been a process, a journey of learning where all I was wrong and what I need to change. I do not believe for a second that I personally "have arrived" or have "the answer" or maybe any answer anymore. I do have a bunch of questions, boy do I ever.
They are voting on whether they literally go to war against their own people, a people who are supposed to be free from a tyranny government as guaranteed in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
The fact they are even having this vote in this situation makes the government void on its face.
For many, freedom is a malleable term — one that's open to interpretation. That flexibility, in part, has fuelled its growth among certain groups, said Barbara Perry, director of the Centre on Hate, Bias and Extremism at the Oshawa-based Ontario Tech University. "It is a term that has resonated…. You can define it and understand it and sort of manipulate it in a way that makes sense to you and is useful to you, depending on your perspective," she told Cross Country Checkup. It's also a term that has thrived among far-right groups, said Perry, one of a number of experts who say the presence of far-right groups in Canada is growing. […] Evan Balgord, executive director of the Canadian Anti-Hate Network, says the way many protesters frame their calls for freedom renders the word meaningless — and what they're really asking for is a shift in government policy that could potentially have a negative impact on others. "When they're yelling they care so much about their freedom, they're taking freedoms away from other people who don't have the same kind of agency and choice that they do," he said. […] To see the word freedom bandied about as part of these protests points to a broader circulation of what Elisabeth Anker calls "violent" forms of freedom. "Freedom is a slippery concept," said Anker, an associate professor of political science at George Washington University and author of Ugly Freedoms, which examines the history of how freedom, as a concept, has been used in American society. "On the far right, [individual freedom] is often translated into somebody who refuses to be bound by norms of equality, treating all people equally or norms to remedy inequality, whether that's trying to remedy racial discrimination or gender discrimination."
What in the fresh hell is this? Again, it’s not shocking that they perverted the word. Everything the Left touches dies, but all this ‘woke’ nonsense obviously is aimed at curbing freedom and being all-around normal in society. What’s best is that it’s again the college-educate whites peddling the most insane concepts that no one will accept. To drown out all this crap, just keep honking fellas. Also, no one thinks like this. That’s the beauty of freedom. You can outright ignore these mentally ill degenerates.
CBC, global, CTV, etc are pure slop and will do anything to spin, lie etc to make it so their spin gets put out there. Everyone I meet is now getting their news off the internet. These media are ok for the weather and sports reporting at best. You can't even watch a hockey game without racism getting shoved in our face, the only racism I see is against white people, why lie.
I think as we move through this thing people are going discover the real target here is the "Charter of rights and freedoms". The human rights aspect in any Countries constitution is a pesky stumbling block for globalists with the goal of a one World government. That would be why Canada and the USA are having their constitutions relentlessly attacked, if that isn't obvious to you, then you are a problem.
I think we will find that resistance is futile when you have a dictatorship, it looks like we have that here. Trudeau has a dictatorship within his own party and it is beginning to manifest outward in the house of commons and I would expect into our Justice system as well, I wonder where that will end. In the words similar to our enemies, resistance needs to be re-imagined.
It would be great if other Countries could impose sanctions upon Canada for their potential human rights abuses, we are hedging the human rights abuses now, going over the line even if only a little bit will become gross human rights abuses in the coming weeks with the emergency act thrust upon the entire Country. Sanctions from who? a Country that hasn't a constitution or provisions for human rights? If this act is passed, it will have been passed without the head of state having any dialogue with the parties involved.
Lets remember, this started as a protest against mandates, those same mandates are suddenly dropping all over, but yet, here we are, and despite what looks like opposition to this tyranny, there isn't any.
I believe it is our constitution that is the target, our charter is special, the globalists, evil, Trudeau, Klaus Schwab, big money, the NDP, the Liberals, the schills in the conservative's, all hate it.
The only terrorists in Ottawa are the Liberal party of Canada members and supporters.. The only money laundering has been Gerald Butts, Bill Blair , Bill Morneau & dipshit Trudeau.. hiding the payouts from Moderna and Phizer. Some say up 20%cost of the first shot. The only one planting fire arms , and false flag protesters is Gerald Butts hidden Antifa criminal buddies. Make no mistake Trudeau has started a civil war .
My Canadian civics knowledge is pathetic, granted, but if I understand it correctly...The Charter of Rights and Freedoms of 1982 as wonderful as it is, was in fact, a list of rights and freedoms, granted by the GOVERNMENT to the people(how generous of them). As opposed to the US Constitution, which affirms the rights of the people are a God given birthright which no government can take away. The US Constitution limits the power of the government...more precisely, the 10th Amendment, which more or less says, "if it ain't a power laid out in the Constitution then that power shall reside with the people". The whole point being, it seems to me, a power granted by the govt...can be taken away by the govt, at the stroke of a pen. This is not a criticism in any way, but is an unfortunate fact. And admittedly, through apathy and the ceaseless drip of socialism, cowardice of the court system, US citizens find themselves in the same boat as the cousins.
My buddies Dad is fairly well off and has a fair bit of savings and investments , he says he is transferring it all today into Canada savings bonds .. if they sieze it they flit their own throat. They won’t really give him a return bit for the 30 days the act is in effect his money should be safe .. I’m not big on the banking aspect or tax implications but maybe pass the word around .

I fail to see the strategy here. He is giving Canada his money in case they seize it?

Many in Parliament are ignorant of the Charter too, here is the first line.
"Whereas Canada is founded upon principles that recognize the supremacy of God and the rule of law"

Its mandates. Why CAN"T you stop everything today. This instant. Why not???
rost495; Morning again my friend, I remain hopeful that you're well.
Since you've quoted my post I'll attempt an answer, though as always you're acutely aware I have no inside scoop or special knowledge.
When Prince Hide 'n Ski first refused to meet with the convoy and when he spoke of them framed them as racist, misogynists white supremacists he planted himself in a corner from which no compromise or mediation could take place.
Why he did that is the question without a clear answer.
Some have said that behind the scenes he's an extremely controlling and manipulative personality, with a huge ego which does not allow him to view any of his own actions as wrong - ever.
Other have said that he's not bright enough to have arrived there on his own - a classic post turtle if you will - and that he's following orders - for .... reasons...
Both stances make a lot of sense when viewed as objectively as is possible, in my opinion.
In summary then IF you were coming from a position of strength that allowed you to be wrong and learn from it, then there would be no logical reason you could not stop everything as of now. For that matter, even if you weren't that, you would still be able to find enough "experts" who had "settled science" that would allow you to stop it right now. That's pretty clear too at this juncture.
And yet, here we are.
Again we appreciate all the prayers you or anyone care to send our way.

You can stop a mandate like this instantly. Speak the words. Its over. But odds are its the word may coming into play as you have noted from arrogance etc... A verbal mandate is so simple. No need to phase out. Just never mind. No masks. No shot requirements. We won't enforce a single thing like that from the moment it leaves my lips.
These developments have accelerated the clarification of my worst fears about the designed future of both countries. There now exists zero doubt, zero reason for minutest optimism.
Sunny blue skies and warming up throughout the day. We started at about -12C this morning.
9am a crowd of 150-200 people or so gathered at the, shut off, eternal flame on parliament hill for the fifth day of the Jericho March. The March ended with some prayers on the hill. Thursday will be the last day of the March with everyone walking around parliament and the Supreme Court seven times, starting at 7am, before lighting up the air with the sounds of every horn and shofar we can muster (world wide) which is scheduled for around 1:05-1:15 eastern time.
We returned to the trailer to catch up on some news. Interestingly the Ottawa police captain resigned, perhaps he didn’t want to enforce a political directive? We also received some more news about the 2000+ firearms stolen from a yard just a couple hours away. Many are convinced Gerald Butts and his antifa goons are behind the thefts and are expecting a “miraculous” find within the blockade of these stolen (planted) firearms. This would give justification of force should the area be raided.
We will remain on alert for suspicious activity and we will stay calm and peaceful as we have done the entire time.
Not much else going on today. Some more rigs made it up in front of parliament yesterday.
There are still people coming in from the west to join our peaceful fight. Spirits remain high and everyone is giving their all to this cause. This is “the hill to die on” in everyone’s hearts and minds. Hopefully every Canadian will feel this call to (metaphorical) arms.

I have to disagree, at least somewhat. Sometimes the bad guys have to be so overconfident that they play out enough rope to hang themselves (in the eyes of the people). These crooked elites are showing a bit too much of what's behind the mask, and who is actually wearing one. People are paying attention......
Thanks for update. Tens of millions of Americans appreciate your perseverance and strength. Any update where now can donate? Give send go still good?
Weird that a large number of firearms were stolen near the rally
God speed

Donations are going to be tough to get now, especially from the US. GSG is frozen on our side through the banks. Cheque would probably be the best way and don’t tie it in to what’s happening. Accounts in Canada are being frozen for donating.
The stolen firearms are a little too convenient right now, especially the quantity.
While GSG is open for donations, we have problems. As soon as that money crosses into a Canadian bank/account it’s immediately frozen. I do not recommend donating to it, especially after being hacked and having donors’ info made public.
Anyone donating within Canada can now have their accounts frozen as well.
I’m not entirely sure where to send cheques to at the moment as nothing central had been set up. Because this all happened yesterday, we’re trying to figure out the whole funds situation. Many of us are halfway across the country from our mailboxes right now so even cheques sent to us personally is a bit of a problem. I think there is a way to take a photo of your cheque though and cash it digitally?? I’ll have to do some more digging.
Consulting has become a booming occupation in the past couple weeks. ;D
Nashville, media reports are that the empty trailer that was transporting the guns was found in Brampton. That's going the opposite direction from you, so might help you breathe a bit easier.
Gonna be a bunch of sawed-off shotguns on the streets of Toronto this summer though.

In that video I just posted, "We will hold the line", did you guys notice that reporter at the very end asking, loudly, do the protestors have guns? They ended the news conference right there.
After reading what Nashville wrote above, I wonder if that question he put out was to plant the seed for what is to come, raids under the guise to stop an armed insurrection by the protestors and them finding 1,000s of guns, and that lead to confiscating guns across the country eventually, as they will go after that pesky charter in their way, as 673 stated.

You can do a mobile deposit of the cheque, but it needs your account number and signature written on the back, which would not be very secure.
I did see that the trailer was moving away from us though it’s still only a few hours away. It’s something everyone here on the hill is wary for anyway.
The interview ended after the firearms question as no one in the room would entertain CTV(??) with an answer. Apparently they did not like that snuff.
Cash is good of course and at the very least, cheques could be cashed at a later date as they have a few months before expiring. It may not be a bad thing for people to cash them later anyway, one at a time. Of course it’s also best to write cheques out for random amounts with cents added.
I’m not sure what the legalities are around gifted money and tax claims?
I happened to catch Question period today, Quebec, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba don't consent for the EA to be implemented. The turd didn't hang around long, he never does, he leaves the house when they are still asking him questions lol, he never answers any of them. He looked to me like he was having trouble and was looked unsure of himself regarding the act being passed, I have my doubts too.
The interview ended after the firearms question as no one in the room would entertain CTV(??) with an answer. Apparently they did not like that snuff.
He was a commie reporter, instructed by his commie superiors, to ask the question in the hope of getting an answer they could spin into labeling the protest as an armed Coup to overthrow the government just like 06JAN21 in the USA was branded.
I don't know your specific laws on whether you can legally have guns in your protest situaton, but if you can, The elder leader could have used the opportunity to expose the reporter as a commie by simply stating, "These truckers have traveled thousands of miles from all points in the country, and have the legal right to carry while traveling. Everyone who respects our laws, and these trucker's rights, should not be questioning their rights, but I see you in the media and this tyranny government, both of you, oppose the citizen's rights outlined in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. You in the media, and now this tyranny government, want no rights for the citizens, while the citizens just want to be left alone to live free as all humans have a right to on this planet."
There is a specific section of our criminal code that makes it an offence to take a firearm to a protest.
The first day or two of the protest an Army vet with PTSD was jacked up because he brought a handgun to Ottawa and was waving it around. He'd have been jacked up even if there wasn't a protest, but that's beside the point.

Thanks for the specifics. That needs to be changed. It doesn't matter where you are, a human has a right to have the means to defend themselves.
Getting a chuckle watching this house of commons stuff lol, the speaker just read everyone the rules on masks in the house. They are all masked, he said the rules are you can take them off inside the house, and put them on when you go out to the hallway. It took about 2 seconds for most of the Conservatives to take theirs off, the Liberals kept theirs on and were incensed, it was hilarious
Hmmm, if I read that right.......If the EA fails in the house then that may trigger a non confidence motion, leading to an election?
I think a non-confidence motion only relates to proposed legislation, not a motion with respect to legislation already in effect.
But it is an interesting question. The ideal way for this to play out is for his own caucus to vote it down, and then he’d be forced to call a vote on his continued leadership of the party. Unfortunately, MP’s are greedy sonsabitches and they aren’t about to vote themselves out of a job because the next election would not go well for the Liberals.
Nashville; Good afternoon my friend, thanks for the update once more, I appreciate it.
It's good to get some unfiltered info from you.
As you can imagine the rumor mill has had a blower put onto it as well as twin turbos.
On the CCFR forum this morning it seems like the consensus is the truckload of guns from Peterborough was from the Savage factory, so they'd be rimfires if I'm not wrong.
I want to say it was stolen out of a locked compound where it was parked overnight.
Anyways sir, as always I'm continuing to pray for you and your BIL.
673; Afternoon sir, I hope you all are getting some sun up north.
Good to read about the new masking rules in the HOC and funny to read of the false indignation from the Libs. As if they're masked when there's no camera on them....
From yesterday it seemed like the BQ and 4 provincial premiers are a hard no on the EMA and then it gets bumped to the House and Senate, but somehow does go into effect in the meantime???
Not sure.
Do you think it's okay if we try not to off ourselves until after we have a coffee sometime? Hope so anyways.
Death will come to us all, that's sure. I figure I'm going to have to answer for myself on the other side, so I'm trying to take that into account too, you know?
From a reasonably reliable source on that BC forum you and I were texting about.
Regarding the arms seized at Coutts.
"The RCMP have now admitted that 8 of those arrested, and all but two of the firearms seized were taken from 2 private residences in Coutts. As in not actually at the blockage as they originally insinuated. The two others were hunting rifles (coyote season is in full swing there) taken from a local they deemed was headed towards the protest area".
Man I wish I wasn't right to think something was fishy about the entire story, you know?
Oh well, we'll see a huge correction on all the legacy media news tonight on the evening news.

Yes his caucus is , for the most part, as greasy as he is . No way they will vote against. Would be sweet though....
Good day to you sir , hopefully things are well with the exclusion of this feces show.
It really is hard to imagine the whole "Omigod guns, protest, Couts, insurrection" wasn't manufactured isn't it ? Timing seems a little coincidental.........but that is likely just me
Having said that I fear we will see worse
My understanding is the EA goes into affect immediately. A vote must occur within 7 days per our Charter of Rights (you know the thing that the Sock prince has been wiping his butt with).
My understanding is that the PM issues it although in 'consultation' with the premiers. Of course it is consult only , I really don't believe the premiers have any real say.
That is my understanding ....but then I'm a knuckle dragger from Saskatchewan with 'unacceptable views'
One bright event in my/our life yesterday was a grandson became engaged to a really great gal. have to focus on the positive or would likely go crazy(er)
Congrats to the young couple from a former Saskatchewan resident and current BC backwoods redneck.
Indeed it's my grown kids and the next shift like you've shared with us that we need to be thinking of.
While I'm still firm in my faith that God is in control here, there's every reason to expect extremely poor behavior from folks who've enjoyed getting their way for most of their lives. In fact they may view it as their birthright in some instances, so no, I don't expect this will be smooth or easy.
Still that's pretty cool news about your grandson and I'll take good news where I can get it.
The cracks are getting big enough to shove a cat through today.
Looks like "somebody" has convinced Skidoo Doug that he's stepped in it big time.
Is this the same guy we listened to 2 days ago? Yesterday?
Listen to his voice - it's not measured and even - he's spooked or something...
Couldn't happen to a nicer batch of folks truly.
Until next time.
Dwayne
Dwayne
Good day to you again
I fear someone has kidnapped Doug Ford because THAT is a long ways from what he was saying.
Distracted for sure , possibly struggling with that chemical dependency thing again....
Or maybe the prince offered him something for his support then pulled it and he's afraid that he doesn't have a chair when the music stops.
Its impossible to make this up
Take care Lorne
Lorne; Thanks for the reply and the chuckle.
"He's afraid he doesn't have a chair when the music stops"
As mentioned I suffer no allusion that this is over by any stretch.
That said, in a time where the politicos seem to govern via the phone poll, it might be that Skidoo Doug was outside and smelled a roofing tar pot boiling and thought, "Hey it's too cold for roofing, now why would the gentle villagers be heating up tar?" and at the same time seen them all holding pillows... and it's not yet time for a nap.
Once again to be clear, I don't wish ill on anyone in power currently, but there's a few that need to be gone from their positions and the sooner the better so as to limit the damage they're doing.
Oh, lastly I see that Prince Hide 'n Scoot has left the Parliament again in a huff - think that's every day this week.
For him my verse of the day is Psalm 109: 9-11
"May his days be few; may another take his place of leadership. 9 May his children be fatherless and his wife a widow. 10 May his children be wandering beggars; may they be driven [4] from their ruined homes. 11 May a creditor seize all he has; may strangers plunder the fruits of his labor."
Getting a chuckle watching this house of commons stuff lol, the speaker just read everyone the rules on masks in the house. They are all masked, he said the rules are you can take them off inside the house, and put them on when you go out to the hallway. It took about 2 seconds for most of the Conservatives to take theirs off, the Liberals kept theirs on and were incensed, it was hilarious
You know of a link where I can watch that? Love to see it.

Hi Steve, I'm watching it on Sat TV here, the channel is CPAC, and its entertaining for sure. I think highlight video's are put up on youtube sometimes, I am unaware of livestreaming or other, but I'm not usually watching these guys do their thing. If I find the video I will let you know.
Hmmm, if I read that right.......If the EA fails in the house then that may trigger a non confidence motion, leading to an election?
I think a non-confidence motion only relates to proposed legislation, not a motion with respect to legislation already in effect.
But it is an interesting question. The ideal way for this to play out is for his own caucus to vote it down, and then he’d be forced to call a vote on his continued leadership of the party. Unfortunately, MP’s are greedy sonsabitches and they aren’t about to vote themselves out of a job because the next election would not go well for the Liberals.
I have only seen a non confidence vote one time previous that I can recall. I was just focusing on the last two paragraphs in the link, but yeah thanks for that bit of insight.

If you snoop around here you will find what you are looking for I think, the good stuff is from 8am-1pm pst, question period is popcorn time and usually when the turd gets pummeled. When the mask thing comes up the Liberals are talking, it may show up elsewhere on youtube. https://www.ourcommons.ca/en/home

Great young couple in my prejudice view 😉😉. He works off the ranch at what ever he can - was out in your neck of the woods fighting fire last summer and down in Oregon the fall before. Gathering up some cattle and land at the same time, while she works off the ranch plus logs hours doing all the things like checking fence , running equipment, etc. that need done.
What do I know but I think we need more of people like that in our country to keep it great, in spite of the politicians.
Your quoted passages are bang on , like always I cannot say it better
Many of these people in ‘public service ‘ need to move on to
All the best my friend from a member of a fringe minority with unacceptable views
Hats off to the Canadians with all the resolve they have shown. But I gotta say you guys are chitty singers. Every video I see where they are singing the beautiful national anthem of Canada my ears HURT.

Your voice might be off too if you have been yelling for over two weeks straight.
Every article I read had a picture of the guns seized—mostly long guns and a couple of tek vests which are all called body armour. Anyone with any experience looks at that picture and thinks—coyote callers.

How about we get Neil Young to sing our national anthem for you, these aren’t lefty artists but the hard working Canadians on a mission to free us from a tyrant. Their rendition of our anthem never fails to move me when I hear it. They are all true patriotic heroes.
It is comments like these that suggest some of you jokers don't have any idea of history or what the reference to Nazis implies. I'm no fan of Trudeau or his party but I don't go around making irresponsible statements like this. comments such as made by Raferman are the reason a lot of followers of these threads don't participate in discussions. Every one knows about the need to not argue with idiots since they are liable to drag you down to their level.
Jim
Well your post sure didn’t age well. Did you see what Justin Black face did 2 days ago??! Lol
Are you playing the I’m a poor victim card now too?

I haven't researched what prompted you to make this comment but it might be good to remember that murderous governments do not start out by telling the people they wish to eliminate "we are going to kill you, or we are going to starve you". Germany was a civilized Western European nation.
Downwinddummy thinks that the Canadian govt using terrorism laws to destroy hard working middle class workers , and their families and those who support them, protesting for basic rights is perfect normal and democratic
Trudeau accuses a Conservative member of standing with the Nazi flag, she is Jewish. He was asked 3 times to apologize later by MP Dane Lloyd, he never did. His true colors. This short clip is him speaking very poorly of a Woman in the house and those who have been rallying for freedom.
673; Good afternoon my friend, I trust you're getting some of the sun up there too?
Good grief and great snakes....
I mean really how dense can one be not to pay attention to someone's last name before calling names?
Oh, wait, never mind - same fellow called Tamara Lich - Metis Female - a misogynist, white supremacist didn't he?
Never mind, nothing to see here, move along.
Dwayne
PS; Anyone still thinking that the legacy media is fair minded and unbiased - take that exchange and have any member on the blue side make a mistake like that and ask if the media would let it slide?

This was not a good display of Statesmanship. This is Tyranny(Hitler) rising, ending in Dictatorship.
This is why you have guns. It is the only key back to freedom when tyranny has been allowed to establish a beachhead within the borders of a nation.
For those who just can't get enough of the turd getting pounded for his racist remarks, shameful.
The winner in the end will be on offense, not defense.
He's showed the citizens where he stands, as if they did not already know. For decades these communist drilled into everyone's heads, in all nations, "we need to meet at the table to discuss", "Our democracy....." it's all been a lie.
They've wanted this all along, and too many Useful Idiots didn't have the backbone to stand on the side of freedom.
It is hard to fathom this is happening right before our eyes, when society has had "their" messaging drilled into everyone's heads, co-exist, together, etc......when it has been only "their" way all along to be accepted / workable. The level of ignorance of the people to sit back, and allow it to happen across the world is mind boggling, yet here we are and it is live, not Memorex.
Pat king is a wild card. He’s emotionally volatile and quite egotistical. Due to his unpredictable nature, most of us want nothing to do with him including the “Freedom convoy” organizers. He would be my top pick for first person to cause trouble if provoked by police.
I believe the flag should be flown right side up now. We were a nation divided and in distress when we first left our homes. As we drove across the nation from all directions and met in Ottawa we started to see a unification of the people. We have now seen the world starting to heal and unify in a common cause. I have seen videos of our flag been flown around the world and because of this we have reason to fly our flag right side up now. We still have a long way to go in our healing process not only as Canadians but of all citizens of this world. I believe this is now a Freedom celebration along with a peaceful protest. The convoy ended when we parked.
Ultimately you as an individual need to make the decision of which way you believe the flag should be flown. Are we still in distress or do we turn it right side up as we celebrate taking back our freedom?
For me, the flag is being flown upside down now to draw attention to Castreau’s declaration of war on freedom of speech, freedom of association and freedom of assembly. Until the Emergency Measures Act is revoked, I’ll continue this. But as you say, it’s an individual decision.
Nashville, Thank you for the insight on PK. I've watched many different people's videos ,but always noticed PK standing out. I didn't know if he was someone or just a drama queen.
Hoping to procure a flag this weekend ,if there are any locally available. I will fly it right side up and proudly do so.
Sick of our own government here in the US, especially Biden and his cronies.
I believe parliament will be voting on the emergencies act tomorrow afternoon?? If you haven’t already, an email or phone call into your MP would be great.
Some points of fact in relation to the EA. -The Coutts firearms related arrests were not members of the convoy but were in a nearby residence, this was confirmed by the RCMP, the mayor of Coutts and many first hand witnesses. The Coutts protestors disbanded to distance themselves from those criminals. RCMP had nothing to do with the convoy dispersing there. -Parliamentary police along with all other forces in the area have allowed, without question, MPs to continue meeting at parliament in the west block. There is obviously no question of the safety of those on the grounds of parliament nor their travel in, out and through/past the protestors right outside the doors of the west block. -I have personally met with one of our MPs in the midst of the protest and had a long conversation with him. He walks through the protest regularly without fear.
Tomorrow will be our last day of the Jericho march. The gathering will start at 6:50am at the, snuffed out, “eternal” flame for communion. The march will commence at 7am and we are hoping to have all seven laps completed for 1pm. From 1pm(EST)to 1:07pm(EST) we are asking every person throughout the world to honk their horns and make as much noise as possible for those seven minutes. You don’t have to believe in God we’re just hoping for your support if you’re able and to pass this on to everyone you can.

Hold the line and be safe everyone!

Yes. Fly your banner upright and proud. It is not your country at fault nor is it the fault of those who have fought, bled, and died under your colors; those who made the ultimate sacrifice that you might enjoy the freedoms you now seek to recover. Your true country is honorable, made up of those who, like you, value freedom over peaceful existence. For we do not fight for peace, we fight for that freedom the flag represents. So fly it high and with respect for that flag does not represent dishonor. It represents a nation of free people. My prayers for you all will continue. May God bless your efforts.

I think it is the Senate that votes tomorrow, but I don't know it is so confusing. They still need to debate the act and from what I saw today.......the Conservatives never got the skinny on the Liberals plan to prepare for a debate. It looks to me the only one that wants this act is Trudeau and a handful of misfits,,,,,even the Bloc embarrasses everyone but the cons....impressed with the Blocs response thus far,,,

You might need a PK at some stage. be careful of any organisers too. The whole reason the world is in this mess is people blindly following leaders. Put faith in leaders sure, just not blind faith. The powers that be will be working all the standard angles they learned from interfering in 3rd world dictatorships the last 50 years. Bully, cajole, force, blackmail, befriend, infiltrate, pay-offs, any angle to get their own guys in your team or someone on their payroll. When dictators cant muzzle a rebel leader , they try and arrange a better rebel leader
Today they would like you to believe we are a threat. They have decided to double up on the fencing around parliament. 😂
All the MPs will be travelling to and from work through the protest today as they have done all week…. Sounds like PPS have decided we’re definitely a threat😁

Good morning Nashville, Laura Ingraham had Melissa Lantsman on last night discussing his racist comment in the house of commons yesterday. Trudeau and his globalist masters are on display for the entire World to see........... you guys did that
The media can't even report without telling complete lies now, there is zero truth in anything, you have exposed them for the entire World to see..........you guys did that too.
There will be massive Prayers for you People today.
Today we are going to see just how much the globalists have infiltrated every level of our governments, on both sides. An evil entity has moved to steal our Country, and it go's right over their head. They are pure evil.
Is this a bigger deal than the Louis Riel Rebellion?
wabigoon; Morning my friend, I hope you're all well down in Iowa this morning.
The question, as you've asked it and please understand I'm not picking nits here, merely making some observations, is too broad to give a definitive answer in my view.
Neither Riel Rebellion brought unity between east and west in Canada, though it did solidify westerners distrust for the government in Ottawa to some degree. For sure the FN and Metis couldn't have thought it was a fair way to address their very real grievances, correct?
In this age of interconnectedness, it allows folks in places like Holland, France and New Zealand to start their own movements to address issues in their lives and if we see Canadian flags there, we can infer there was "some" influence from here, but determining how much would be impossible. Just as impossible as the Riel Rebellion having an effect on France, Holland or New Zealand at that time in history, given the speed news and information traveled then, no?
All I can say wabigoon, as I've said previously, is that if you'd have offered me a bet that Quebecois would be meeting in Ottawa to openly hug and pray with people from BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan, I'd have firmly replied that would not be possible, much less feasible... and yet we witnessed it repeatedly didn't we?
We can say the people had had enough wabigoon, we can say God is awakening folks or we can say that the devil himself knows the time is short and he's got his crew in a tizzy. There may well be truth in all or none of it, I'm not able to say.
What's happening is absolutely unique in my lifetime however and as I keep saying, that's not nothing.
We'll see.
As I know you're a man of faith, we very much appreciate your prayers. We as a nation and as individuals need wisdom, discernment and then peace to accept what God has for us.
It's a big - HUGE - deal and most MP's will want to either be shown to be on the side of their constituents or on the side of the party line.
Just watched Elizabeth May - former Green leader and while I wasn't surprised I was surely disappointed in her.
The Libs might force debate to be closed early or try to?
Seems like they've lost the Bloc now and perhaps even some of the Liberal MP's from Quebec too. Quebec doesn't appear to be having any of this nonsense.
I suppose it's rather logical that the Quebec representatives are especially sensitive to any move that singles out a part of the nation and exempts everyone one else, isn't it? If this coup is allowed, what is there to prevent the next hammer to come down on Quebec?
Any constituency should be acutely aware of this ability of a (pretend) majority to squash any minority, including FN and those fools in the Maritimes that think their day isn't coming.
But let's hope and pray that sanity and freedom will prevail. My admiration and support remains with the protestors.
Dutch; Good morning back at you sir, I trust the day's behaving down in Pocatello?
We're overcast and windy here, but such is an Okanagan winter after all.
Yes absolutely any of the groups or provinces, Quebec, Maritimes, FN, Sikhs or Christians and especially firearms owners should really be tuned in to what the ramifications of these measures mean.
As Ian Runkle said on one of his legal videos about this topic, we truly never want to give any government reason, much less practice at this sort of thing.
I remain amazed that so many folks are seemingly asleep to this.
Thanks once again for your interest and prayer support, we very much can use all of that we can get.
Dwayne I have been following this with interest as what the truckers would finally do. I have followed this closely as I was born grew up, spent 9 years on interceptors in RCAF during the 50;s & 60;s before moving south of the 49th.What I find interesting is the support that is coming from Quebec, as well as Canada and the rest of the world. I hope you are having a good day and all is well with you. Cheers NC
Trudeau has no intention of lifting mandates, that is why he is so vague, won't answer any questions directly or indirectly, and just blithers about things that have nothing to do with mandates.
After listening to the Liberals and their commie friends, the NDP and the Greens (shudder) they haven't once made mention of the unvaccinated. I suspect they were only somewhat lifting mandates for the Vaccinated, whether it be Federal or Provincial, the language is he same.
I have also noted, there seems to be some kind of insinuation that the vaccinated have suffered greatly, and more so than the unvaccinated. The ones who took the jab are the one's who have had limited access to things that the unvaccinated haven't. It sounds like they want to punish the unvaccinated as routine in their future plans, as if the vaccine worked LOL.
Apparently organizer Tamara Lich has just been arrested. Organizer Chris Barber was arrested earlier today.
Heard from a friend that 3 people he knows have had their accounts frozen for donations they made weeks ago! Waiting to see about my own accounts. We’ve apparently reached the point that government can now make things illegal post facto.

I called my bank today and asked them how long to get my money if I withdrew it all. The lady was angry when I told her why, she read a statement from the bank regarding the EA and told me it was no big deal.
This about 5 minutes after I listened to Christia Freeland tell us we were fugged.
I told the bank lady what I heard Christa say, she said something and hung up on me lol.
I also know someone who was sent an email with their name along with 22 names with email addys, telling them that they were contributing to an insurrection group or whatever. I just figured it was either the government or globalist scum, or both lol, cowards.

Go get it all tomorrow. You are following this, and know what the truth is. This is spirralling down fast.
All of you go clear your bank accounts out before you get it taken from you. They have the means to see your postings here and anywhere online, and label you as terrorists.
Do not talk to them for any reason other than give me my money, in cash.

Its not a Vaccine, we all know that.
The purebloods are the "control" group. They are attempting to destroy the control group by forcing everyone to have the shot, so there can not be any evidence(PUREBLOODS) for the damage the shots create.
Exclusive: whistleblower has just sent in a leaked document from the Canadian Immunization Registry.
Look at how much and what data they collect on people: crime, finances, civil litigation, DUIs, active owing, credit score, credit accounts, bankruptcies
Banks have started to freeze accounts linked to the protests, Freeland says
Quote
The law also allows banks to target for account closure donors to the GoFundMe and the GiveSendGo fundraising campaigns that fueled this protest. Freeland said she wouldn't get into the "specifics of whose accounts are being frozen."
Citing terrorist financing laws, the government has forced crowdfunding websites and payment providers to register with the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC), the government's financial intelligence unit.
In a final warning to the assembled protesters, Freeland said those who have their big rigs on Ottawa's streets will see their insurance cancelled and their corporate accounts suspended a move that could make it difficult for these drivers to ever work again.[/b]
"I've received confirmation that approximately 200 tractors will be arriving in Ottawa shortly. The emergency act is not deterring the thirst for freedom."
Chris Barber, a key organizer of the Canadian trucker “freedom convoy,” has been arrested and is in custody. He is expected to face charges as the convoy protest continues its third week.

The gatewaypundit:

The Trudeau regime is being led by Trudeau and by the granddaughter of a high level Nazi under Hitler. Chrystia Freelands family has Nazi connections. Her grandfather was a high level Nazi who was being sought after the war by Polish authorities.
Why was the gatewaypundit link removed from the internet, and nowhere to be found through search efforts? Yeah, I think they are getting too close to the truth........
Hey Elk, Dr. Malone is open about his past with the CIA, you think he's still on the payroll?
All I know is he, as the inventor of mRNA technology, is helping to expose the truth, the deaths, permanent injuries, and potential long-term death/injury that won't be known for years.
The truckers that stand up for freedom and subsequently lose their license and jobs are exactly the type of people I would want to hire as a business owner. They will not have any trouble finding employment unless all businesses become government owned and operated.

It's worse than that. Under the Emergencies Act, the government can force you to work if your job is classified as critical to keep the economy going. If you wanted to sit at home and continue this protest and not work, you'd have some serious decision making to carry out at that point.
It definitely happened. I expect new software app (tracking ) was introduced as well a related search/searches....... of course we would need someone with the wisdom of Steve would have to explain how it was just a coincidence

We are still here. New developments have happens on our end. We pulled the truck out last night for multiple reasons. One being, we have press passes and we can no longer “support” in a protest. We must remain neutral as news. The great part is that we should now be able to cover this as legal media.
Busy day, so I’ll see how often I can report to you guys right now.
There are still freedom protestors holding the line.

You guys on the ground are the only neutral media there. The legacy media sure as hell isn't.
Doesn 't have to, most of the Truckers involved are probably independents? Can't imagine any trucker driving a company owned rig participating. So maybe they should just leave with their trucks and not haul any loads to Ottawa at all again or Quebec and BC if that 's what it takes, no hauling to any "mandating province" just shut them off. Just an idea...mb
I just seen saw a report the Emergencies Act did not pass, so tyranny it is with the police.
The WEF will not let the elite lose this. This will get ugly.

So cyber stalking me with your mentally deranged pathological lying, in the hunters campfire forum, isn't good enough for your mentally deranged azz I see.

Thanks for showing your commie azz, where you think I don't have a right to be here in this forum. I've contributed more useful information here than your mentally deranged pathological lying cyber stalking loser azz has.

We don't need your kind, to fix this complex problem.
Thanks for nothing deuce shute !
You're trashing this thread, not me, which proves how mentally deranged you are with your continual cyber stalking of me with your pathological lying......keep that whiskey glass full, and pickle that liver.
Keep sucking those smokes and chugging your whiskey boy....the Devil has his arms out waiting for you in hell.
That'd be between me & the good Lord, wouldn't it ?
I'm entirely comfortable with that !
I'm not trashing this thread you Idiot !
I've been actively involved since the get go.
I'm actually, up here, trying to help save our great Country, not sitting in your Moms basement, trying to make out that "I'm so smart" & "I can help".
Take your lunacy somewhere else.
We don't need or want crackpots like you, involved !

Yeah, sure, you're not trashing the thread when you walk into this forum, and start your mentally deranged cyber stalking towards me with your direct attacks and steady pathological lying, as you've steadily been doing in the CF forum.
We are still here. New developments have happens on our end. We pulled the truck out last night for multiple reasons. One being, we have press passes and we can no longer “support” in a protest. We must remain neutral as news. The great part is that we should now be able to cover this as legal media.
Busy day, so I’ll see how often I can report to you guys right now.
There are still freedom protestors holding the line.
Nashville; Thanks for the updates again.
I was up the mountain staring down a hole in the ice all morning and turned on radio on the way down. The propaganda arm of the government had a phone in radio program, which actually had more people against the Emergencies Act, etc that I thought they'd allow. Of course there were some interesting views from "the other side" too, but it wouldn't be CBC if there weren't now would it?
Funny I was really struck to pray for you both this morning and now I see why that was.
I'll keep on doing just that too for sure. For wisdom, discernment and peace with your decisions.
I was struck with the thought to tell you to follow your gut - whatever that's worth?
The good natured, busy people involved in this worthy cause, need to know you are a lying sack of $hit & not to be trusted, under any circumstances.
Your delusional thought processes are neither wanted, nor needed, due to your inherent toxicity !
But, you have a nice day now !

People can read, and see you're lying.
I've had very pleasant conversations in PM with professional people from Canada who could prove you're a pathological liar in your above statement.

Is that like selling out? Or sucking a Willie for a dollar? I figured you two would of been jailed or killed fighting for everyone's rights.
TrueGrit; Good evening, I trust life in Middle Georgia is more settled than up here across the medicine line.
To be clear, I don't know Nashville or his BIL other than my interactions here, so can only judge them on their communication to us - in the same manner anyone else can judge me or for that matter you, correct?
I'd suggest that we who are not there cannot begin to know what the best course of action might be in a very fluid situation.
Try as I might to get more clarity, even Canadian politicians past and present, as well as some decent legal minds commenting on what's going on especially with the Emergencies Act happening don't really know the full extent of the situation on several levels.
Taking all that into account then, I'll personally trust the folks who are there to do what they think is the prudent course of action.
Thanks for your continued interest in the situation and again if you're so inclined, I'd ask for prayer or positive thoughts for all involved.

We had no choice as we do not own the truck we came in, the owners of the vehicle had everything they own threatened and asked us to pull out. Should we have risked someone else’s future to make a grand stand for ourselves!?? The press passes now get us right to the front of everything and we can participate in press releases. Passes mean nothing to the riot police and they are threatening everyone in the “red zone”. Those being arrested are held for a few hours and then told to get out of town. Us getting arrested doesn’t serve much purpose when we could stay and document what’s happening. Killed? No one here is being killed, this is not an armed revolution. No matter how abusive police forces are, the people stay peaceful.

If you boys need anything we can help with... please ask.
We teamed up with an independent journalist and through our connections we got us all press passes and have now become official citizen reporters. I’m not getting much filmed on my phone anymore so the best way to continue following is follow “The crackpot farmer” check out Davespaper.com or follow “TAKM CINEMA” on Facebook or YouTube.
Cash; Good evening my friend, I hope the week behaved for you folks and you're all well.
Thanks again for the continued interest, I can say I appreciate it and doubt I'm alone in that.
To me, the greatest thing the Ottawa occupation did was to shed light on a number of really vital issues here in Canada.
In no particular order, it showed the true colors of the Green and NDP parties, so I'm hoping that folks who might have cast votes for them in the past will consider not doing so anymore.
It showed that the legacy media is all too often in lock step with the left/Liberal political machine which again a lot of folks didn't see prior but now seem to be awake or awakening to.
We got a new leader in the party of the center or slightly right of center - not a moment too soon by the look of it either.
Try as they might spin it otherwise, the mandates fell provincially like 500lb boulders after the trucks rolled west. Again "they" can spin however they want, but even the legacy news has now miraculously found "experts" who support dropping the mandates. Amazing is it not?
As an aside, the province a few of us reside in BC seems to be all over the place, but they're feeling pressure now as well.
Maybe most important Cash, it brought Canadians from across the country together in a way I personally did not believe possible. The money raised alone has to have the major political parties doing some major soul searching as it far outstripped the fundraising for all the parties last election - in a week.....
They have to know there's tremendous potential there that's just below the surface.
On a spiritual level Cash, things have happened which if one is a Believer make sense and if one isn't are so coincidental as to defy mathematics, but suffice to say on that front alone it's been a sea change - I believe.
Anyways sir, having the Dark Face Prince attempt to invoke the Emergency Measures Act wasn't actually a surprise to me sad to say. as I knew they - those who've held power for so long - are not going to go gently into that good night on any level.
I and again likely we very much appreciate the prayers and frankly you all wanting to know the truth of the situation.
We'll pray for us and for you all too for sure Cash, as honestly we're very much intertwined, perhaps more than we previously knew.
Nashville; Thanks for the evening update, I appreciate it.
Again, when I was ice fishing this morning and praying for you both - the fish were not biting so I had time....
Anyways I was struck with the thought to pray for an extra helping of wisdom for you all and as I said, the thought that you all should "go with your gut" was prevalent.
TrueGrit; Good evening, I trust life in Middle Georgia is more settled than up here across the medicine line.

Maybe this is an eye opener for the conservative Canadians. I feel there's only one way out of this mess for US. And come November 8th 2022, I'll know for sure. Best of luck to y'all up there and God bless.

Nah. Selling out is liking Jimmy Carter and letting the same stain in your brain axe out forty years later.....
Slavyanka insisted I take a sip of holy water before I left.
Left home, serious blowing snow. Drove 3 km to the 401 and got on, 2 lanes clear. Went 2 km and hit the worst whiteout I’ve ever seen. 20km/hr and could barely see the centre divider and the flashing lights of the truck ahead. Friggin’ whiteout was 4 km till it cleared, then road was a mess.
Hit a chunk of snow and it tore the lower cowling on the car loose and jammed in front wheel. Managed to find a place to pull off and tore off the chunk that was rubbing but no way to check for further damage to be able to drive 550 km.
I’m not superstitious but someone or something is trying to send me a message, so I turned back. Good luck guys.

The Ottawa protesters have been hit with a $300 million class action lawsuit . It seems blowing horns all night pissed off the locals.
It seems destroying businesses and ruining families, spreading lies about white supremists, racists, insurrectionists, giving people choices that aren't choices, withholding data etc....really pizzes off Canadians.
Watching the CBC livestream their lies can be amusing. The very notion that a CBC reporter can question the actions of veterans regarding the war memorial is disgusting.
Never ever underestimate the ability of lawyers to sniff out untapped sources of revenue...it has not gone unnoticed in legal circles that there a couple of donation websites with some serious cash on hand awaiting final distribution. But, perhaps I'm being overly pessimistic, you know, all hung up on 'follow the money' thing.

Just curious. How do you personally feel about the protesters?
Good luck getting an answer from this despicable pos. He is constantly making provocative statements here over on the BC hunting forum, a pizz poor Canadian and a waste of skin.
As I gear up to join in a protest today, I peruse CPAC and the debate in the house of commons. The NDP and Liberals just can't refrain from the racist dialogue.
It is so over the top it leaves me wondering why the false narrative?.........answer...........it is all they have.
They continue to repeat the White nationalist, racist narrative and everyone can see they are doing exactly what has happened to our American friends. Here, they don't recognize the indigenous participation, the folks from all over Canada with diverse cultures coming together over ideology. You would think they would be happy about that.
The globalists don't have a wide range of options, its pretty narrow, its the same old, pathetic really for potential leaders to be so shallow.

This crackdown on the workers rights rally is really getting downwind facist , Trudeau’s lil Bosh, all excited. If you’re lucky Justin’s gestapo are going to trample more handicapped elderly women in wheel chairs
Watching a livestream right now, it shows a line of Sikh's right up front to the police.
A great group of Sikh gentlemen have come out to Ottawa to support the protestors. They have been coming up on the weekends. We met them last night and did an interview with them. I ran into them again against the front line and did another quick interview. They are quite disappointed with Jagmeet. You may be able to see last lights interview on YouTube, TAKM CINEMA.

Good to see repressed minorities fighting for their basic human rights against racist facists.
As I keep saying that's not nothing, that is having members of the Sikh community front and center. It had to hurt Jagmeet having that chap call him a "complete scumbag" too...
You both remain in my prayers for sure, as do the rest of us as individuals and as a nation.
I haven’t done anything with any of my videos yet. I’m technologically inept and I don’t own a computer or anything. It will probably take me a bit to get my stuff off my phone and to someone that can do something with it all.
TAKM CINEMA (YouTube) is the videographer we’re working with.
Davespapers.com is who we’re working for.
The Crackpot farmer of course is doing the updates.
There is a dump truck that was driving around repeatedly with flags and honking, he is there every protest. He had the most inconvenient stroke of bad luck, his brakes locked up right in the middle of the intersection, imagine that. He has his hood up there, the mounties showed up lol, traffic is jammed up big time, issue him a ticket for $190 which was paid by the crowd. Then about 30 people pushed the truck out of the way.
The crowd, probably 600-800 people, alot of support, the usual Trudeau salute from some folks.
On the WEF question in the house. Funny you mention that because someone shoved a camera in my face and asked me who was pulling Trudeau's strings? One of my signs says Trudeau is a puppet, I said the WEF is pulling many strings.... and the question was asked in the house etc.....that is exactly what I said on camera.
Interim Chief Bell is a nut-job. He’s angling for the position permanently and planning to hunt down and prosecute anyone who attended the protests. Apparently simply attending a protest is now a criminal offence. The only thing you are allowed to do is attend “mostly peaceful” protests, you know, with arson, assaults, attempted murder.
It'll take a couple of years for it to work it's way through the courts . Assets are being frozen .
You are just pleased as punch about this aren’t you?
See that awesome video of the horsecop running over that crippled woman yesterday? It was awesome beyond words especially that poor dumb son of a gun trying to protect her on the ground and the house stepped on him. You must be in 7th heaven
The RCMP’s motto is “Maintien les droits”. Perhaps we should now use officer Andrew Nixon’s quote of “let them hear our jackboots on the ground”.
All kidding aside the RCMP has a strong track record of abuses. The 1970 War Measures Act allowed the force to abuse innocent Quebecers and hold that province under brutal martial law. The force took the opportunity to investigate every organization and individual that they labelled as undesirable even it those individuals weren’t even linked in any way to the FLQ. Emergency Measures bring out the worst in the police. With a stroke of the pen the government makes them unaccountable to the public.
This summer boycott the musical ride if it comes to your town, the RCMP ‘s PR campaign shouldn’t mend these fences. Thank you for your service Andrew Nixon.
I am disgusted with the police and RCMP who took part in this.Try and not to leave the cooperations your money.Boycott their businesses as much as you can and keep protesting.
Nick1899; Good morning to you sir, I hope that the day's looking decent in your part of the world.
We're fairly clear this morning here and just above freezing here.
One of the things many or maybe even most Canadians seem to have done is to ignore our history either in part or whole.
In a few phone conversations with 673, I've learned he's a keen student of history as am I, so please understand that's the viewpoint I perceive the world from.
Right from the get go truly, the NWMP made up the rules as they went along, whether it was Sam Benfield Steele heroically getting up from his sick bed to take up his issue 1876 .45-75 and beat a strike leader on a Canadian Pacific Railway work crew - the strike seemed legal there actually Nick - to the infamous acts they were involved in during the Winnipeg General Strike of 1919.
While we could go on, suffice to say that unfiltered history has many instances where our national police force acted on behalf of the folks paying them and not in the best interests of the citizenry.
This is not to suggest in any way that they - the RCMP Members - as individuals are all evil. Far from it as that's an unsupportable position on several levels.
What I do suggest is that as an organization they do not always reflect the virtuous image portrayed from Hollywood's Sgt. Preston, Due South, etc. & etc. and that they have often been used as a bludgeon against the Canadian people.
It's interesting to me that we're in a unique place in history with e-books, audio books and online information that if we chose to be educated, there's more than a history degree out there on pretty much any subject if we as individuals want to put in a modicum of effort, you know?
The goal then once again is to get our fellow citizens - of Canada and truly the world - switched on or engaged enough in life to just question a couple things and then do some research on their own.
Again that's just one old BC redneck's thoughts on the matter sir, not much more.
downwindtracker2; Good morning to you sir, I hope the day's looking to be a good one out at the coast for you.
The sticky wicket or problem I see with the position of calling any gathering an "illegal gathering" is who gets to determine it and by what process, correct?
For instance when the Penticton Riot or the Vancouver Riot took place, as far as I've been able to ascertain there were steps taken where the mayor or representative of the mayor need to read our version of the riot act, which then suspends the right to assembly for a specified length of time.
The Emergency Measures Act seems to do that too alright, but it wasn't designed to be used for "illegal gatherings" as per Hon. Brian Peckford's many and several interviews on the subject.
Where we - you and I - stand to run into grief then is that our service club, fish and game club, church, temple or synagogue could be arbitrarily added to the list of illegal gatherings without any recourse until the Act is lifted. That's as I read and understand it anyways.
Again I'll say, this is all fine and good as long as "they" are doing what "we" like, but if by some chance a charismatic far, far, FAR right leader comes into power for instance, can we not imagine the possibilities?
When I read up on the Winnipeg Strike - I absolutely can.
Thanks for your time and all the best to you this Family Day weekend.
673; Good afternoon my friend, I hope you're getting some sun and despite where we're at you and yours are well.
For those who don't follow Crackpot Farmer behind enemy lines on Facebook, it looks like he and many from out west will be headed home sooner than later as the downtown area of Ottawa is all sealed up by LEO now.
It'll likely all move into another phase now, likely more local pressure and less online discussion other than in very broad terms or after the fact.
That's what I know now, but if Nashville says otherwise or I hear anything different I'll let you and everyone else know too.
I'm still going to ask folks to continue praying, both for safe travels home for many, but as well for the country as it continues to deal with the situation that is anything but decided or over.
Then why was one this of the long covid issues before there was a vaccine. You have spend too much time in strange holes and not enough time in looking around what's really happening.
Downwind NAZI. Did Trudeau seize the bank accounts of the tens of thousands of facist Canadians who donated to the terrorist organization BLM? Why did your hero praise the BLM when they burned and looted Canadian businesses?
Aren’t you the same facist moron who posted on here that you wanted all invaxxed rounded up by Trudeau’s gestapo forces?
I can’t believe Rick would allow dumb facists like you on a hunting forum
I hope you are doing well. I’m doing fine despite the circumstances. I cannot believe that in this country we are meeting legal dissent with such violence. I knew from the time Trudeau announced the Emergency Measures Act that it wouldn’t take long for this to happen. In every instance where our government has invoked the earlier War Measures Act, law enforcement agencies have overreacted. It is sickening to watch what is unfolding on the streets of Ottawa these last few days.
I like most other Canadians born in the 1960s were conditioned to think of Canada as being a kindler gentler version of the US. Similar in values but more socially responsible. Trudeau has shown this to be a complete lie. Trudeau once said that he was most inspired by China, well he has emulated China’s behaviour well and has created his version of Tianmen Square. These last few days will forever change our nation. I pray now that our legal system can address this in an unbiased fashion and prosecute those that have corrupted our Charter rights.
Take care Dwayne and fellow Canadians, there are hard times ahead, Nick

Rick allows all manner of dumb fascists on this hunting forum.
"In May 2020, the Canadian government banned 1,500+ models and variants of firearms. Buy back/confiscation is supposed to happen by May 2022. Junior is given himself powers that only a communist lite, like himself would appreciate".
"In May 2020, the Canadian government banned 1,500+ models and variants of firearms. Buy back/confiscation is supposed to happen by May 2022. Junior is given himself powers that only a communist lite, like himself would appreciate".
Yes its in theory true, its just more division by Trudeau, except the part that refers to the turd as commie lite, he is commie heavy, so there is that.
Not sure where the bans are in coming to fruition, but nobodys going to follow anything he says.

Hint.
Jeff I bet you really got excited watching that young women being struck repeatedly with the butt of an rcmp’s rifle while she was hopelessly lying on the ground
Jeff did you recover yet from your ammo container injury? Lol. you should stick to bongs and fake disability claims and your fake Trump Russian collusion claims. The people who hate facism, which you enthusiastically embrace in Kate Brown’s Oregon, are having a grown up discussion now.
I find it puzzling that Canada's Native people choose not to opine about the government overreach that has been historically a cornerstone of relations between government and natives in this Country.
There seems to be a willingness to trust the government, even though the trust issue between government and Natives has always been historically low ie: residential schools, biological warfare, missing Women, etc...why the trust on the Covid narrative?
If anyone should step out of the box its Canada's Native people. A dictatorship is right under our noses, perpetuated by government. A once free people are herded like cattle, for a reasoning that escapes me. If the issue is one of trust, why is everyone so willing to trust?

I really don’t know how to put this in a charitable way. Some of us in the socially irresponsible land south of you have been expecting this for a while. You are an arrogant dumba$$ for mistaking a century of creeping Bolshevism for social responsibility.
God bless your truckers and farmers for waking you the hell up.
What separates the US and Canada is that in the US we can address our grievances because we have two cultures in the US; namely a constitutional republic and a multi cultural democracy. A. Constitutional republic has always allowed political protests to allow the citizens to address our grievances. Of course the govt was often heavy handed but our judicial branch and our laws eventually addressed that. Im hoping that will happen with the Jan 6 protests but maybe I’ll be wrong.
We have a time honored system of culturally accepted political protests which obviously were sometimes violent but essential in a constitutional republic to ensure the importance of individual rights. We’ve always had both sides of the political spectrum being able to address an overly heavy handed government. Unfortunately Canada has only a multi cultural democracy ( Canada nice) which is obviously similar to a European political and cultural system. In this type of political culture there is no redress to a heavy handed fascistic government and the destruction of individual rights whether it be from First Nations, Christian churches or Blm . It’s interesting to note how the parliamentary system works in Canada and how in this type of political system there is no way to aggressively address a change and morphology into facism. Just my opinion that were witnessing that now. Seizing bank account now of supporters of the freedom protest is very disconcerting I think.
Appears that are zero checks in the Canadian political system that would prevent a full blown transition into facism where individuals have no civil rights. Something else missing in Canada is the strong presence of of non legacy media that can criticize the fascistic government. I see now that impartail journalists in Canada are being threatened with incarceration.
I’m not gloating as I have strong ties to Canada but I always thought it was a bit unusual traveling to Canada the past 50 years and wondering how long such a political system would last and I have the first hand experience working and living in Europe and communist countries.
I wish all the best for Canadians in these troubling times. Upsetting to witness what is happening
I never said that the US was socially irresponsible, that is your interpretation. I am stating facts. In Canada we are taxed at much higher levels federally, provincially and municipally. These resources fund more generous social programs and universal health care. I never meant to denigrate your country or to imply that you have no social conscience. I respect the fierce independence of Americans as I have always looked after myself and my family. No governments handouts for me please.
I’ve never voted for the socialist parties in Canada but alas this is where we find ourselves now. By the way, I am also concerned for your country and the path that the current administration has put you on. We should fight the enemy not ourselves.
If the protests were to become much larger-say in the hundreds of thousands those same "police officers" will be the ones dropping bombs on the protesters.
The first clue I had we were in trouble as a Country is when I saw how the FN were being put in a position socially and politically that is unsustainable. Now this morning I wake up to find that all the money (which may be worthless) and promises amount to nothing, how much is half of FA worth?
I hope you are doing well. I’m doing fine despite the circumstances. I cannot believe that in this country we are meeting legal dissent with such violence. I knew from the time Trudeau announced the Emergency Measures Act that it wouldn’t take long for this to happen. In every instance where our government has invoked the earlier War Measures Act, law enforcement agencies have overreacted. It is sickening to watch what is unfolding on the streets of Ottawa these last few days.
I like most other Canadians born in the 1960s were conditioned to think of Canada as being a kindler gentler version of the US. Similar in values but more socially responsible. Trudeau has shown this to be a complete lie. Trudeau once said that he was most inspired by China, well he has emulated China’s behaviour well and has created his version of Tianmen Square. These last few days will forever change our nation. I pray now that our legal system can address this in an unbiased fashion and prosecute those that have corrupted our Charter rights.
Take care Dwayne and fellow Canadians, there are hard times ahead, Nick
I really don’t know how to put this in a charitable way. Some of us in the socially irresponsible land south of you have been expecting this for a while. You are an arrogant dumba$$ for mistaking a century of creeping Bolshevism for social responsibility.
God bless your truckers and farmers for waking you the hell up.
Not trying to be a dick, but post up when you have done something to curb the commie's in your Country.
How many bank tellers have been killed since accounts were frozen in Canada? Screwing with my money is just behind screwing with my family. The government is trying to turn a lot of citizens into criminals. When guns are outlawed only outlaws will have guns.

You mean the bank teller who donated 50 bucks to the convoy? or the bank teller who go's to work everyday to support her family?
673; Good morning my friend to the north, I hope you're not getting the winds we are, though it does mean it's sunny so that's nice.
If you see some of our yard stuff passing your way in an hour or two, perhaps you could grab it?
I am reminded of the time I rolled up to the local grocery checkout for the tail end of some elderly lady's diatribe to the clerk that there weren't enough of them on shift and she - the retired older lady - had been greatly put out having to wait that long.
The old lady left before I could say anything to her, and honestly I might not have anyways 673, but I did apologize to the young clerk and then made her laugh when I said, "Yah, when you were hiring all the staff and setting up the schedules for this week, you really should have taken that wonderful retired lady's time into better account!"
As you've suggested, I suspect there's many of our fellow Canadians who are either waking up to what is happening or in some cases are ahead of me - I can't say without getting to know them can I?
That said, it's been months and months since I was in a Credit Union and that was because I did a job, was paid with a cheque and forgot I could take a photo of it for deposit!
Got paid for another side job and the brains of the outfit reminded me I used to do that all the time.... man I think I used to be sharper than I am now... maybe I never was???

You have to start somewhere or draw the line somewhere.... don't you? I don't want any trouble, but no one is coming to take my guns without a fight. A corrupt government turning law abiding citizens into criminals is BS.
Its real windy here as it often is when a system is moving in. I am always looking for another rifle to add to my collection.
People I never thought would donate to the freedom convoy, donated, others that I thought would donate, didn't. I know that the 250 People I spent saturday night with all donated.

I am right with you there brother, nobody is going to take my guns either, I don't know anyone here that is going to lay down and take it, book it.

Bank Teller? come on they aren't the ones making these policies. If you were trying to kill a rattlesnake would you shoot it on the tip of its tail.
The passing of the EA (Emergencies Act), was not at all about breaking up the protest. It was all about being able to go after your political opposition, and steal their money.
My guess is that at the end of the day, nothing changes, other than some people being without money and a job. A NICE protest is not the answer any longer.
Anyways heyyyyyy, lots of trucks sitting idle until mandates are lifted. I don't hear anything from MSM, they don't want to talk about that I guess. Wonder how long until they come out with a story there?...kinda hard to spin doctor that one.
It’s been a few days since I have given an update.
Things changed quite a bit in a very short amount of time and updates didn’t seem very important at the time. People were still showing up from around the country on Friday to protest. Many were still on their way to town when police started their crackdown on Rideau. Due to the low numbers of people in the area, it didn’t take forces long to push through Rideau to the start of Wellington. The line was held for as long as possible but everyone knew that the area couldn’t be held. With horses trampling people and protestors being maced and hit with batons the numbers steadily decreased. The weekend crowd hadn’t arrived in time and many were nervous with the threats against their assets.
Friday was the worst day for police brutality. Trudeau needed justification for his invocation of the emergencies act and it seemed many police were trying to incite violence to do so. I was very proud to watch how people from across the nation held their heads high and remained peaceful over the weeks proceeding but this was something else. Protestors were now being beaten, assaulted and threatened and yet no one gave in to their anger in a negative way. As numbers were slowly dwindling on the front line, someone was ready to step in. They refused to act out in violence and instead acted out of love. Those protesting begged for officers to stand down, to go home. They let them know they didn’t need to be there, that it was a choice. They offered hugs and prayers for those in front of them. I noticed right away that all the officers on the front line were from out of town. Forces that had not seen what had truly been happening over the prior weeks, it would be easier for them to hold their line. Local officers were spread out behind the protestors, many not wearing masks and most were engaged with people. These officers seemed to not want to be there. Most of them had been there and had seen how peaceful and joyful the freedom protest had been.
Had police forces wanted they could have easily taken all of Wellington on Friday alone. They dragged it out and seemed to enjoy it. With the elderly Mohawk woman trampled, many in the crowd quickly seized the moment to put out that she had been killed. Those that put that information out new that the report was false but it gave an opportunity for those in their seats to question police action. By Saturday, the SIU had opened an investigation and the mounted police were held back behind the line. Saturday seemed to fly by as forces quickly pushed down Wellington all the way to Bank st. Forces also pushed south down the side streets which also saw confrontations and police brutality. Reporters and protestors on these streets both saw beatings from mainly Vancouver police forces as I have been told. On the main front on Wellington, you could start to see police questioning their positions as people continued to beg, pray and encourage officers to leave or stand down. No officer could hold eye contact for more than a few seconds, though some seemed to try in defiance. They all quickly turned away, some with tears in their eyes and shifted uneasily in their boots. There was the odd officer that seemed to brandish their baton, looking as of they were eager to use it if given the chance.
The tactics of the day had mostly changed to pepper spray. With the eyes of the world watching and the protestors remaining peaceful, though defiant, it was hard to justify using the horses or batons now. More people had shown up on Saturday despite the threats against them though it was nothing like the crowds on the weekends before. Those that did show up were more prepared with masks and goggles. Medics volunteering their time brought water, milk and eye wash for those being sprayed and helped in any capacity they could. The line held at Bank for the day but eventually the cold set in and the people couldn’t take shifts to warm up like the forces could.
By Sunday it was pretty well over. A few people were out on the street but most knew that there was nothing more to do. Everyone was tired from weeks of being in Ottawa and now they were trying to help each other out. Most arrested were released and back to their trucks on the hill or hotel rooms within four hours. Some were threatened to sign conditional release forms before being released while others were simply just let go. Some I talked to were driven out of the city and dropped off and told to figure it out while others were brought to their truck on Wellington or Rideau and told to drive it out of there and asked not to return.
There are many stories of people being beaten and having their bank accounts locked out. Several stories have come in of Veterans that refused to leave the war memorial; which they had been guarding 24/7 since removing the fence that had been around it; were badly beaten. I hope these stories will get out to the world.
I am still in Ottawa. I decided that there are still some stories that need to be told though many are reluctant to talk now. The feelings of joy that filled this area have now been replaced by fear and mistrust. Not only mistrust in the government and police but also by those local to the area that seem to be filled with rage against any that supported the protests. It’s been hard to try and engage with anyone now because of this and all are afraid. Two locals I have met, both immigrants, are now looking to return to their native countries. They have lived through tyranny and revolutions in their own countries already and they do not wish to be apart of another. Their views on this country have been shattered and everything is now questioned in their minds. Canada was supposed to be a safe and respectable country that was tolerant of all…
So many people here in Ottawa opened their arms and welcomed the convoy when it showed up. For three weeks they laughed and smiled, danced and sang. There was food for all and a joyous community was created. Within a couple days that beautiful world was crushed and I can see the depression settling back in already.
The protest zone became a safe place for all proven by the posted stats from the Ottawa police that admitted crime had fallen over 90%. Global, CBC and CTV constantly reported on the few crimes in the area that did happen but they never came out directly against the protestors in their articles as they couldn’t. While they implied it was protestors causing disturbances and indulging in criminal behaviour, it was quite the opposite and the articles remained vague on WHO was to blame for this reason.
As I walk through the streets now, even with a remaining heavy force of officers, you can see a return of vagrants to the area. I feel bad for those that have to remain here and watch a return of what has become the Trudeau normal. I know this fight is not over though and I still hear reports that many from the convoy have stuck around and regrouped around the city with a plan to return. They are still calling on all Canadians to remain protesting every weekend, to take back this country peacefully.
There is much to say and reflect upon. There are many questions to be answered and I feel the coming months could prove difficult for most. I hope the people have not lost faith and have instead been emboldened by one another to push forward even harder.
Yes, thanks Nashville. Protests are still ongoing around here as this globalist government here in BC is possessed by a madman, and its looks like they will be the last ones on this Continent to drop mandates of any kind, I just ignore them.
I am not the only either as last weekend I went to a pub with my son, no mask in sight, no passports, standing room only, 250 people, best time ever, the pub owner was beside himself as he has been beaten down for two years and destitute. I don't go to pubs normally, but was invited by others that are a free people.
People are challenging the mandates now, after this government has destroyed lives, business, families, its time for government to back off.
Nashville thanks for the update. Personally I believe what has happened with the protests was of great value to the country and what happened at the end created an awakening that will not go away. The stain on the legacy media, the governing party and select individuals in addition to Trudeau ( Freeland and Jagmeet ) is significant. The international support with simialr actions as an outcome is noticeable as well. I am thankful for for the small outlets and people like you that took the time and risks to put out the on the ground messages. I think there will be change coming. It may take up to an election cycle but change is coming.
Thanks Nash. Like Hugh, I think changes are coming. Thanks to the truckers and folks like you who have shined a bright light on the depth of corruption in a large percentage of our politicians and of course MSM. I think its safe to say that Trudeau's actions shook some to the core. One of the most surprising things to me is the number of police they were able to get that didnt seem to have a problem using force to oust peaceful law abiding protestors. History really does repeat itself. Hitlers era proved to the world that it doesnt take much to turn some people evil.
Wow That is so sad to hear. Thanks for the update. If you see your BIL tell him he has many supporters down herein N Idaho

ribka; Top of the morning to you sir, I hope you're all keeping warm enough in north Idaho this morning, you can't be any warmer than we are and we're chilly for our part of the world.
For sure I'll agree that it was sad to read and very tough to watch, but I'm going to suggest that it was expected and perhaps even necessary.
Many of my fellow Canadians did not believe the extent the current government regime would go to in order to quell/smash/suppress this movement. Some still don't for sure, but the evidence is out there now for those who might be interested in learning the truth.
I'd further suggest that like AA, we Canadians are not going to get better until we admit we've got a problem.
That said, I'm cognizant too that just because we admit we've got a problem does not guarantee success as each and every one of us knows an addict who did not survive.
I'm praying and hoping that it's not too late for us as individuals and collectively as a nation, as well as working towards that.
Only God knows what the final outcome looks like though I believe, but I'm still very human and would prefer to live in peace rather than strife of course.
Thanks for the clarification Dwayne I keep gettin them confused and have all week. I’m glad they at least had each other during these trying times. Iam feeling a little lonely because for me Canada has been changed forever while most of my friends and acquaintances locally don’t seem to realize that.
The comments by Nashville seem very biased to me. Being retired I was able to watch hours of the activity in Ottawa over several days, as did members of my family. As an example he says he spoke to people who are thinking of returning to their home countries due to what they saw. He then blames this on the government and the police. He fails to acknowledge that had the protestors not been there none of the conflicts would have occurred.
In my opinion if the protestors had spent two or three days and then left their message would have been heard and police activity would have been unnecessary.
No acknowledgment is made of the grief created for the residents living in the downtown area whose sleep was disturbed for weeks. Also the loss of business created by the truckers presence.
I won't try to use any other examples since this crowd will try to disavow my comments any way. You would not admit to the number of people out there who do not support what the protestors were doing and felt the local police chief was, at least, partly to blame for being so slow to take action to bring things under control.
There, now every one is free to continue with their distortions.
Jim; Good afternoon to you sir, I hope you're either getting better weather than we are or if not that the woodpile is amply stocked at your house.
With the understanding that I'm not trying to engage in a bladder pressure contest with you or anyone - here or ever - I'll offer the following.
When you were watching hours of activity on the streets, were you doing it on independent channels such as VivaFrei on YouTube or via some legacy media?
Like you, I watched and also listened on headphones while I was doing other tasks, then would watch some of the reporting from the legacy media to compare what I had seen to what they were saying.
The loss of business created by the truckers presence was the result of the Ottawa mayor giving an order to businesses in the area to shut down wasn't it? There were a couple coffee shop owners interviewed who defied the order and one interview I watched the owner said he'd had better sales in that time than he had in the past couple of years. It looked like he was being honest, but who can say for sure?
The noise would indeed have been a problem and that's likely why the judge ordered it to stop at night quite early on.
Please understand I'm not attempting to disavow your statements, merely answering and/or asking questions based upon what I saw - albeit on the other side of the country.
If I've intentionally written or suggested anything on this topic or any that I intentionally distorted my statements to put my opinion in a better light, I'm sorry. I do not recall doing that and do my best not to make a practice of it either.
My intention is to have people question what they see and are told, to dig beyond the usual sources, to ask hard questions and attempt to get answers that make sense.
In my opinion then, if the protest had only lasted a couple days, it would not have shown me personally the degree to which both the legacy media as well as some members of the government will misrepresent what I saw. Again what "saw" was for sure videoed by a number of different independent folks as well as the legacy media cameras as well.
Finally I'd suggest that we're all going to view life through the lens of our own personal experiences. I'm not certain how we could do otherwise?
I will personally stop at calling them distortions however, but respect your opinion and right to do so.
watching the state run low IQ CBC I see. So you think Sikh truckers are white supremacists too? lol Im betting you're a union cowardly govt worker like Steve and stayed home during the pandemic hiding under your bed while truckers busted their butts to keep stores stocked and the country running. . right?
Its too bad the western provinces can't cut off Ontario. lmao

Jim, like Steve would first to call the police on you and your family for not following some ridiculous mandate

Yep, I always accept the comments of the state-run media and armchair warriors over those of people who are right in the fuqqing thick of it. :rolleyes:
Hard not to be when I lived in the middle of this for a month and saw most of it first hand. Hard to watch CBC/Global/CBC mainly only come out on monday or tuesday morning every week, point their cameras down an empty street and then report that “supporters are losing interest and leaving”. Why don’t they show up on the weekends and actually report unbiasedly?
Being retired I was able to watch hours of the activity in Ottawa over several days, as did members of my family.
I watched and listened to it 24/7.

We very well could have all gone home and in doing so all of the corruption that is occurring nation wide would have been left covered up and no one would be the wiser. It is the corruption of the country coming to light that has made these immigrant friends want to leave, police breaking up a lawful (see judges remarks from both injunctions), peaceful protest is just an example. Maybe you’re right though, perhaps we should have left the country to believing that everything is going great here in Canada!
In my opinion if the protestors had spent two or three days and then left their message would have been heard and police activity would have been unnecessary.
The protestors stayed as clearly, the message was not heard.
No acknowledgment is made of the grief created for the residents living in the downtown area whose sleep was disturbed for weeks. Also the loss of business created by the truckers presence.
Their sleep was not disturbed for weeks, honking from protestors was normally finished by 11pm every night with the exception of friday and saturday nights. The noise injunction was put in place 10 days in to the protest and remained throughout. Many horns heard past midnight were counter protestors honking as they drove by and gave everyone the finger. There is an affidavit with 120+ signatures of residents in the directly (very small portion of the city) affected area that have said the noise was not bad and that they supported the protest. Every day I had locals coming to the trailer to thank us and beg us not to leave, many were government workers that would lose their jobs had they been caught there. As far as businesses being affected, only the ones that listened to city officials and closed up shop lost out on business. The protestors asked all businesses to open and those that did have had the best sales by far in over two years. One of those businesses has offered me free food for life because of their profits (over 100% profit over regular winter months) and to thank me for coming out from AB to help fight for all Canadians rights of choice.
Another interesting fact is the majorly reduced crime rates during the protest. Those stats are published for you to look up.
I won't try to use any other examples since this crowd will try to disavow my comments any way. You would not admit to the number of people out there who do not support what the protestors were doing and felt the local police chief was, at least, partly to blame for being so slow to take action to bring things under control.
There are many that don’t support, though I would also argue that many don’t understand as they have only listened to MSM reports on the matter. We have an ongoing problem in Canada that our majority is usually silent as opposed to a very loud minority.
There, now every one is free to continue with their distortions.
There is a lot more coverage by those that actually participated on the hill than those that falsely reported on it. There are many MPs and Senators that have reported on their experiences walking through and observing the protest. The only ones that kick and scream are those that never went down to look for themselves to make an informed opinion. Do remember that every person that worked in parliament over the past month had to pass through the protest every day to get to work. Clearly there was no threat to anyone as they were allowed to continue working in the building. Jim

I don't usually involve myself in a pile on, but you invite it. While I do have some sympathy for the people who lost sleep, and if they had legitimate loss of business??? then for that I am sympathetic. But.......What about the many thousands of people across this Country who lost jobs, homes, businesses, etc as a result of the mandates? don't they count? that is why they were there in the first place.
The truth came out in the Senate, watch some video's of the Senate debate for yourself to see Nashville's account is factual or not.
Businesses could not do indoor business with customers lacking vaccine passports a law passed by Trudeau. So obviously once again Trudeau is guilty of destroying business owners. But idiots keep believing the CBC lies
Nashville trying to man who brags about wallowing in ignorance is not worth your time. Don’t let this cowardly lazy fool drag you down

The self importance of some is truly astounding to me, the very reason the protest took place, and forgotten means they never understood the issue in the first place.
Not to pile on, but a couple of thoughts for you to consider:

Conflict is not the problem. In fact, many conflicts are necessary and have very desirable outcomes. The problem here is corruption and oppression; the very things that the convoy sought to oppose.

Many residents supported the convoy because of the grief and lost business caused by poor government policy and decisions. The convoy's purpose was to put an end to the continuation of more grief and suffering at the hands of the government, and they promised that as soon as the government put an end to it, they would leave and put an end to their efforts, as well. Sometimes corrective action is painful but necessary. A broken bone that heals incorrectly has to first be re-broken before it can be set correctly and heal properly.
It was not made clear at any time through that conversation the woman had been singled out. It could just as easily have been a case of a neighbourhood being covered. It seems to be another case of paranoia which seems to be so prevalent around here.
The above is in response to a cop showing up at a Canadian woman's house, based on a Facebook post. I guarantee you that Jim knows if Steve is cut or uncut.
I well remember the feeling of helplessness and impotence when the planes crashed into and brought down the towers in NYC. I wondered how could we not see something so simple coming. It was a stroke of evil genius I and many others could not see coming.
I live 16 hours west of Ottawa and when the trucker convoy went by I thought to myself ‘I wonder how far they will get?’ 2 days later when they parked downtown I wondered how the Ottawa police the OPP or the Mayor did not see it coming that they would just park their rigs. Listening to the Mayor and the Police Chief in those days was kinda ‘duh!’ The panic in their voices —their impotence was kinda funny. I think they were really pissed when someone explained to them the problem’s associated with removing them. The prime minister had to visit violence upon the truckers to get them to move. Even then most of the big rigs moved voluntarily—the only rigs I saw towed where bob-tails. I think if the truckers just walked away from their trucks they would still be towing them. Truckers really are responsible people—they could have made it much harder and much more uncomfortable for everyone involved.
I wonder what the banks have to say about the city of Ottawa seizing those rigs. Most truckers I know are making pretty hefty payments on their rigs.
I deal with people hereabouts everyday expressing the same sentiments as Jim. I get so angry I can barely contain myself-and then I realize they have a right to their opinion and a right to express it. Some are truly misguided and some just believe differently than I do.
The ‘Legacy’ media are however a different matter\—they truly are the Ministry of Propaganda and evil.

Great job, thanks. I was in the process of doing the same thing but you beat me to it.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, I guess you would like to live in a country where the government sanctions what protests are acceptable. It will promote and donate to BLM, environmental causes including violent ones and LGBTQ2+ groups. All peaceful protests by the working classes demanding freedom will be met by the governments goons and beaten down with a ferocity favoured by despot tyrants.
If we he have learned anything in the last week it is that perhaps the Trudeau government is the most inept governing body on the planet. With this knowledge you would still support this government in order to get 8 hours of sleep. I thank people like Nashville for their courage to stand up to our current oppressive regime. You may not agree 1OntarioJim but if you let Trudeau continue he will eventually come for something that you cherish and there will be no one like Nashville to stand up for your rights.
Here is an excellent analysis of a family court decision on Feb 22 where the father was suing to force the mother to vaccinate their kids. The judge upheld the rights of the mother to decide based on the evidence (or lack of it) not based on the demonization of the mother by the father (and the gov’t) for her “unacceptable views”.
I hope this is used as a precedent going forward and particularly in cases where someone is suing for wrongful dismissal for not complying with vaccination mandate.

Its not about "sleep" for people like Jim. They firmly believe government has the right to dictate all aspects of life to the people. They welcome it actually. Its been my experience that most of the people that feel this way have had some form of government milk running down their chin most of their lives. Very few of them have actually built or done anything on their own.
There are alot of "jims". What we have here is a classic case of drunk on propaganda, that is a problem we as Canadians have to address in some way, or multiple ways. The government wants to limit how you get your info, BillC10 failed, there will be another avenue they will try, in the meantime, they will continue to divide us with these mandates. Why do we have mandates?
673; Top of the morning to you my friend, I see your light is on and hope the coffee is too and the fire is roaring as well.
I'll begin slightly in the ditch by thanking a bunch of our members from east of Manitoba for contributing here.
As you know from our phone conversations I've personally got a long history in the western Canada separatist movement stretching back to the early days of the "Republic of Western Canada" and then Preston Manning's Reform Party after that. That's my personal heritage.
But as Nick1899 said the other day in a post, somehow PM Sparkles has managed to unite Ontario, New Brunswick and even Quebec folks with BC mountain rednecks - which I'll admit I would have bet a fair bit of cash against being remotely possible. Yet here I am, sober as a judge typing what I feel, you know?
It's about mandates, it's about overreach, it's about control, it's about freedom. For us who want to hunt and shoot, it's about access to public lands, freedom to travel to and from them and freedom to own any firearm.
Honestly if any Canadian owns a firearm and still believes it's a grand idea to vote Liberal or NDP, they've not been paying attention. I care not one bit what their local MP told them either 673, they need to go back and read which MPs voted for the Emergency Measures Act and then ask themselves if they believe in their heart of hearts if that same MP would not vote to take all of your firearms.
It would be "for the greater good" of course and "only a temporary measure" that'd be lifted as soon as "things were stabilized and all Canadians could be assured of safety".
Well sir, I see what even one bowl of oatmeal and one cup of coffee does to me, but there's not a lot of body mass for it to work on, there is that...
Here is an excellent analysis of a family court decision on Feb 22 where the father was suing to force the mother to vaccinate their kids. The judge upheld the rights of the mother to decide based on the evidence (or lack of it) not based on the demonization of the mother by the father (and the gov’t) for her “unacceptable views”.
I hope this is used as a precedent going forward and particularly in cases where someone is suing for wrongful dismissal for not complying with vaccination mandate.
Excellent ...... JT should heed the judge's statements in this case as well. Had he done so, the protest would very probably been a lot shorter and had a very different conclusion.
We are still protesting, no mandates have been lifted here in bc. Country wide cross border mandate for truckers still on, and there is a truckers strike that the MSM is pretending not to notice.
Thanks ElkSlayer, I’ve been doing everything from my phone as I never imagined I would be doing anything like this and so never thought to prepare.

The lying scum media is doing its best to ignore protests around the Country regarding mandates, focusing on Ukraine. Truth is, we have more than one problem.
We need another round of debates in the house of commons regarding these mandates, to see what the rats are hiding now, and expose more of the agenda of those behind the mandates.
Interesting opinion piece on problems in the Ottawa Police --- personally I think with the new chief, on the way he came across on going after people for months the problems have gotten worse.
Criminologist says convoy cleaned up Ottawa police
Saskatchewan-born Carleton criminology professor Darryl Davies says his decade of complaints fell on deaf ears until the trucker convoy revealed Ottawa police dysfunction.
mmPublished 19 hours ago on February 27, 2022By Lee Harding
Carleton University Criminology Professor Darryl Davies says that he has spent ten years trying to expose corruption at the Ottawa police but only since the trucker convoy has anything changed.
In an interview with Western Standard, Davies described a dysfunctional police force that numbers 1,500 officers.
“We’ve had so many officers facing charges under the Police Services Act of Ontario, for everything from rape to excessive use of force to fraud,” said Davies.
“We have 20 police officers right now in Ottawa that are at home watching Netflix courtesy of the taxpayers because they get paid while they’re suspended and they’re facing criminal charges.”
Until recently, Deputy Police Chief Uday Jaswal was among those on paid leave, suspended in March 2020 after allegations of sexually harassing three employees. After 23 years on the force, he resigned February 24, days before the Ontario Civilian Police Commission (OCPC) was to hear evidence and testimony from his accusers.
“The last six years we’ve had over 60 Ottawa police officers charged. We’ve had morale issues. We’ve had horrific examples of bad decision-making towards women who have come forward with allegations of sexual assault. It was so bad the Fifth Estate actually did a program on it, and (former chief Peter) Sloly wouldn’t be interviewed for that,” said Davies.
Sloly himself had a disciplinary hearing against him while still with the Toronto Metropolitan Police. Davies wonders why Sloly was hired, given his controversial reputation and the fact the hearing was leaked and posted to YouTube. He was not a good choice to clean up the force, according to Davies.
“At one point, there were 14 women who indicated that they had been sexually harassed or whatever at work. And instead of having an outside police agency come in and investigate, he said he was going to deal with it as an internal matter,” Davies said of Sloly.
“There was chaos at the Ottawa police service. We’ve learned that when Sloly was calling for resources from the federal and provincial governments that he needed assistance, the reality is that many of the officers were calling in sick because they wouldn’t work for him.”
Sloly resigned during the weeks of the trucker convoy, and Ottawa police services board chief Diane Deans hired an interim chief without a competition. She was removed by the mayor from the board and three other members of the board also resigned.
“The only good thing that’s come out of the truckers protest is in a week, we got rid of the chief and four members of the Ottawa Police Services Board. But isn’t it sad that it took this kind of event to precipitate that,” Davies said.
The 74-year-old professor, who received a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Saskatchewan, said he and the editor of Ottawa Life magazine have tried to bring attention to police problems for ears. He says their complaint to the OCPC two years ago was not dealt with. In 2020, Ontario Attorney General Doug Downey replied to a letter from Davies to say he would pass it on to the Solicitor General of Ontario, Sylvia Jones. Jones directed Davies to the OCPC, whom he had already complained to.
“I’ve been here for many years. And for the last 12, have been writing about policing issues in this city. And we’ve had major problems with policing in Ottawa. And I’m not the only one to say that,” said Davies.
“The mainstream media have presented a rosy picture of the Ottawa police and even its chief, and no one has gone behind the scenes and asked the tough questions. And I think that’s why the public probably in Ottawa, are really shocked by what they’re hearing.”
Davies says a public inquiry on the police response to the convoy is likely and also necessary. He believes most of the charges protesters received in Ottawa won’t stick.
“This is not a good time for Canada. And I also predict that if you do a follow-up of the people that are charged that 85% of charges will be dismissed in court because they will be a violation of the individual’s charter rights and freedoms. The cops can go and do whatever they want. At the end of the day the courts will decide, not the police, and thank God, not the politicians.”

Just received notice that the Canadian government has been attempting to seize the givesendgo funds, similar to the gofundme injustice. They will be refunding the money automatically, no action needed by freedom lovers. The cash we donated found its mark, which is one of the reasons for Trudeau and the other globalists to go with a digital currency.
It’s been a while since I’ve given an update. I’m finally home again and yesterday was my first day to just do nothing by myself.
After leaving Ottawa I went and met back up with a few friends along the way that I had made during the protests. A few were feeling lost and uneasy after returning home and trying to figure out how to go back to a normal life again. I wanted to hopefully give them a little encouragement before returning home myself as the list of things I needed to do was piling up. I pushed home fairly quick though I ended up stuck in Winnipeg for an evening due to a blizzard that shut down the highways. I spent a couple hours stuck in the middle of a road at one point as it was a complete whiteout.
Once the highways were open I drove the rest of the way home. Just before hitting the AB border I got a call from my grandfather letting me know he sold his home and needed help moving. I arrived home, unpacked the car, did a load of laundry and went to bed. After waking up in the morning I loaded up another duffle bag and hit the road again to go help my grandfather. We spent a few days together cleaning out his shop and loading all his tooling into a couple trailers. Once we were finished I hit the road again. My other grandfather had passed while I was in Ottawa and now his house would have to be cleaned out as well. I spent the past week or more at his place cleaning out the house.
I’m happy to be home though there is a lot to get caught up on again in my own life. As far as protests go, I haven’t kept up much with what’s happening across the country. I talked with a couple of guys about a week ago that had stayed in Ottawa to continue organizing. They were still going but things were pretty slow. I’m not sure how involved I can be right now until I get my own life back on track a bit.
Thank you to all those that supported us through our journey in Ottawa. I really can’t say enough to show my gratitude towards you guys. Take care.
Thanks for the update. Amazing Trudeau is still enforcing mandates when he doesn't even follow his basic protocols.

we would have widespread violence at this point on time, or worse, because he is a madman and a dictator.
