Your link doesn't go to the article, but I have read that there are US radicals in Ottawa trying to disrupt and create chaos. My original question was about your statement " Now the Americans get into the act by blocking the highway between Montana and Alberta. And they probably have guns. Happy everyone? "
It's still only Canadian truckers on the Canadian side, and another blockade has been set up now near Milk River AB. Canada is being held hostage by radical groups who realize the Federal government will allow them to get away with anything with no consequences. Prepare for even more chaos and criminal activity that goes unchecked, the inmates are now running the asylum and our ball-less PM is squirreled away at some undisclosed location hoping it all goes away.

Radicals have not taken over, there are some but by and large it's not the radicals, although there is one element I wasn't aware of, read this for a very insightful fair commentary, it's worth the time and effort. I'm not going to post excerpts as it's worth the read. theline.substack.com/p/dispatch-from-the-ottawa-front-sloly?fbclid=IwAR2RBHCFRh5-yO3lkcL2r4cO6bJZTm_h5QiTr3C7BvBtIUMnjVwq1qOrNLkand this is what we need. www.ctvnews.ca/politics/conservatives-to-force-vote-calling-for-feds-to-present-plan-to-end-covid-19-mandates-1.5776015The Conservatives have taken the cause of trucker convoy protesters to the floor of the House of Commons, advancing a push for the federal government to present a plan to lift all federal COVID-19 mandates, while calling for the blockades to come to an end.
“I believe the time has come for you to take down the barricades, stop the disruptive action, and come together. The economy that you want to see reopened, is hurting,” said Interim Conservative Leader Candice Bergen in the House of Commons on Thursday morning.
“I believe this is not what you want to do… You're protesting because you love your country, you want your freedom back. To the protesters here in Ottawa, you came bringing a message, that message has been heard.” |

That's not going to happen.
There are reinforcements coming that will enable the police to make arrests.
There's no way the truckers should block an international border. That has nothing to do with the mandates.
The conservatives are skating on thin ice, supporting the truckers.
The majority of Canadians support the mandates.

Freedom??? They should all get sent to N. Korea, Russia and China for them to appreciate what they have.

Same thing is going on in Australia and our PM is not much better,I do know that last year a bad outbreak of covid was started by some removalists coming from interstate being vaccinated doesn't stop you from getting covid or giving it to someone it just stops the burden on the health system,you still need to wear a mask and practise good covid health measures,my grandson and and my grandaughter just recovered from covid he was double vaxxed and she has had one shot he was fine after a week and she was good after a couple of days the rest of the family tested negative they're the most careful family I know but my grandson is 20 he went out for the first time since last year he's a good lad works fulltime hardly goes out.

You see what it takes once you allow bullies to break the law?
So now the Emergencies Act goes into operation.
Imagine allowing truckers to block an international border.

I have no sympathy for the truckers. When they came through my city, they acted like thugs. They are also getting funding from the U.S. Our city donated $17,000. 8.3 million received. |

Boy that's quite an arsenal for a peaceful protest.  |

The weapons were unknown to the original organizers, once found out they disbanded the protest. The criminal gang involved, who were not part of the original peaceful protest, have been changed. Kudos to the RCMP for bringing a successful end to the protest without having to resort to violence.

Kudos to the RCMP for bringing a successful end to the protest without having to resort to violence. Yes, the police were clear on that. Now Trudeau has enacted the Emergency Act, a severe overreach IMO, it could've been done without it. The part that really bothers me is the ability to seize bank accounts only on 'suspicion' of activity. Not only is this a slippery slope, it's downright dangerous. |

The government should seize all funds in the accounts of the people involved in the protests. Use it to pay for the costs incurred by the government and if there is any left over, give it to the businesses affected by the stupidity of protestors.

How do they know who's involved with the protests ? There's thousands of people, young and old alike, having some junior bank clerk deciding what is used for protests, will cause untold mayhem. The criminal element is rubbing it's hands in anticipation, Canada has enough white collar crime without enabling more with access to funds with little to no guidelines. It's a dangerous precedent, what's next ? government control over everything and anything that even looks a bit suspicious ? |
