So we have the names of the people who donated to the Trucker's Convoy, but not the names of Ghislaine Maxwell's customers?

How sad is that.
You’ll get Epstein’d if you speak of “the list”. I can’t believe Prince Andrew is still alive. Oh wait, he kept his yap shut and paid XX million out to the victim.

So will the government freeze bank accounts of any lawyer that defends the protestors against criminal charges?

Would be a good opportunity to use whatever powers from legislation are available for those protesters as well. I would certainly support it......including donors.

https://financialpost.com/news/local-ne ... 1645154688

RCMP Chief Supt. Warren Brown, commander for the north district, called the attack a “calculated and organized violent attack that left its victims shaken and a multi-million dollar path of destruction.”

Coastal GasLink said in a statement the attackers surrounded some of its workers in a “highly planned” and “unprovoked” assault near the Morice River drill pad site off the forest service road.

“In one of the most concerning acts, an attempt was made to set a vehicle on fire while workers were inside,” said the company in a statement. “The attackers also wielded axes, swinging them at vehicles and through a truck’s window. Flare guns were also fired at workers.”


Not a word from the CBC, or Trudeau.

Incredible.

Guess this is “understandable violence”

Natives and refugees are exempt from the emergency measures act. So if it was natives you won’t hear much about it.

https://www.gazette.gc.ca/rp-pr/p2/2022 ... 1-eng.html

Exemption

(2) Subsection (1) does not apply to

(a) a person registered as an Indian under the Indian Act;
(b) a person who has been recognized as a Convention refugee or a person in similar circumstances to those of a Convention refugee within the meaning of subsection 146(1) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations who is issued a permanent resident visa under subsection 139(1) of those regulations;
(c) a person who has been issued a temporary resident permit within the meaning of subsection 24(1) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act and who seeks to enter Canada as a protected temporary resident under subsection 151.1(2) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations;
(d) a person who seeks to enter Canada for the purpose of making a claim for refugee protection;
(e) a protected person;
(f) a person or any person in a class of persons whose presence in Canada, as determined by the Minister of Citizenship and Immigration or the Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness, is in the national interest.

Actually, it would be nice if they went back two years ago and nailed those blockade protesters as well.

Perfectly executed policing in the arrests of 2 of the 3 organizers. 1 on the run. Looks like law and order will prevail and not a trigger pulled (sorry Americans). Cudos to the police and fire departments doing an excellent job. The leadership is now on board now that the inside help has resigned. Unfortunatley the CPC is damaged beyond repair with years of recovery facing the party due to supporting white supremacists and the illegal activities by known criminals.

Maybe give him three weeks. Got to give these protesters the time they want. Freedom of expression and all.

The timing does seem very suspect though. I wouldn’t choose to perform a violent attack while the Emergencies Act is in place.. but that’s just me.

And the methods, too. Very coordinated, effective, less about sending a message than doing massive physical damage.

No video. No suspects. No warning in spite of it being such an sensitive area with millions of dollars of a vital infra project subject to a massive RCMP action just a few months ago.

The RCMP seem to be just as clueless as the general public.

False flag? No… the RCMP would never do that!

Do you know what makes me bolt up at night screaming?

It’s not the liberals activating a 35 year old piece of Progressive Conservative legislation three weeks after a protest that is not guaranteed under the Limitations section of the Charter which specifically prohibits blockades and preventing the free use and enjoyment of public lands… in response to police ineffectiveness but not before the protesters were given every chance to leave.

It’s not the mandates either.. which all but a fringe minority complied with and are being rolled back—probably slower thanks to this convoy.

No.. what really scared me was the last time we had a Conservative Prime Minister. And how he was willing to spend hundred of millions of dollars fighting the Supreme Court because the Canadian Government allowed a child and Canadian Citizen to be held indefinitely without charges or trial and allowed him to be tortured in what is perhaps the most egregious violations of the Charter ever in Canadian history.

And had they somehow been successful.. the absolutely dangerous precedent that would have set for every Canadian citizen.

And yet… none of their supporters seemed concerned in the least. This isn’t frozen bank accounts and arrests and criminal charges. This is V for Vendetta have a black bag put over your head driven out to an abandoned quarry 9mm suppressed and thrown hundreds of feet down no need for a cover story.

So no. Until we can get someone like….. Michael Chong to split and take a bunch of moderates with him.. and let PP.. the Reform Party, and the PPC drift off into history like the embarrassing anachronisms they are… the Liberals are pretty much the only choice.

And this comes from someone who will vote them out the nanosecond there is a decent, responsible, rational choice from the right.

Absurd. The liberals made that child terrorist murderer into a millionaire. Talk about principle…
Yup……10 million taxpayer dollars paid to the guy planting roadside bombs for the group aligned with bin laden.

And good old Bob is such a caring guy about children that it makes him vote liberal yet says nothing about the isis kids not allowed to come back under the libs(maybe because they know enough Canadians were disgusted by what happened with Omar).

Bob, you will vote liberal no matter what, stop making up fake reasons. You had your red Tory in power and no doubt didn’t vote for him.

You ain’t anywhere close to screaming at night or so moral about the children.

RCMP investigates 'acts of violence' on Coastal GasLink site in B.C.

No suspects have been identified, no one in custody, say police

I will bet it is a false flag by freedom convoy and far right sympathizers to implicate far left radicals. We will see.

Thanks for the heads up, TC are you listening? A little late for a pillow fight.

A good example of the freaks on both sides. Reminds me of a bit of history, of course much more extreme. Germany back in the day between wars when it was wracked with violence from far left and far right political groups. Both sides needed to be crushed.

Pay as you go protest. The unfortunate locals are the victims. Should be a slam dunk.

Convoy class action claim increased to $306M as downtown restaurateurs join lawsuit

The lawsuit also names donors who gave money through GiveSendGo, the alternate fundraising platform organizers turned to when GoFundMe shut them down.

That’s nothing. The government with unnecessary lockdowns cost businesses billions over the past 2 years. Maybe you don’t actually work in the airline industry and don’t know anyone affected? Restaurants were forced to close for many months over the past 2 years and they’re complaining about 3 weeks?

GOOD

Though not for the closet dictators on this board.

https://torontosun.com/opinion/columnis ... 1645141839

Here's a sincere question:

If the PM's communication and leadership had been better during this period, would this Ottawa occupation have occurred?

Yes, very professional. Perhaps you and I can both request that they don't clear everything out. They could leave the Fxck Trudeau flags in place, maybe at half mast for three months.

The media on the other hand....just reprehensible.

Reporter on TV covering the police action...just says they have to be careful, as these "massive trucks could be used as terrorist weapons".

Bullshit inflammatory comment. Where are ANY videos remotely like Jan 6th in Washington?? THAT was violent.

The CBC is SO disappointed there isn't massive violence as the police move in. Can hear it in their voices. They are such disgusting scumbags.

I am so sick of this repeated media rhetoric. They have been in Ottawa three weeks. There has not been one iota of terrorist like physical violence in Ottawa. A lot more just happened at the Coast Gas site! Not a word on that from anyone.

I have no problem with the police amount of force and being careful. No problem with aggressively clearing border crossings, or Ottawa as they are doing. Arrest them all.

It's only the media and politician demonizing of the peaceful component of these protests!

Not a good look. Likely going to cause divided families. Sad

The Children's Aid Society of Ottawa said Friday it was working with police to keep children in the downtown core safe and police confirmed protesters were putting their children in harm's way.
