    Weird, why do we even need tests at this point?  Covid is rampant on both sides of the border, vaxxed people are surviving the current variant.  US doesn't need one to enter the US (just be vaxxed), so it's annoying about the other direction.. sigh...

    ^Did they get rid of the antigen test required 24 hours prior to entry by air?

    I don't know.  I live close to Seattle, so I'm crossing through the marine border (Victoria to Port Angeles ferry), or alternately if for some reason the land border becomes easier to cross, we'll take the ferry from Victoria to Vancouver and drive south to Seattle.

    It's amazing the mission it can be to get to Seattle considering its only 120km/80miles in a straight line from here.

    Ambassador Bridge still closed. Police came acting all tough then veterans showed up… As long the dolt governor in Michigan squirms a little longer…

    The veteran line is impressive!

    Antigen test one day prior to travel still required for air travel, yes.

    I saw an image online today that a handful of these Free-dumb leaders actually held their own press conference. It's perhaps from earlier this week in the Ottawa area. 

    What freedoms are they lacking in Canada at the moment? I live in Ontario, and short of max capacity in places, what can we not do?

    If you want to go to a restaurant, go to a restaurant, or any other public indoor spaces. 

    If you're not vaccinated, you'll have to stay away from most public places. Or find an establishment that doesn't bother to check. 

    Many of these anti-vaxers got vaccinated throughout their elementary and high school years. All of a sudden they listen to or read some anti-science garbage online from dislusional people, and now a Covid vaccine is an attack on their civil liberties. Selfish and foolish free-dumb followers.

    *Yes, the quality of many politicians in Ontario and Canada is very low right now and has been for years. Exercise your democratic right when it's time to vote. 

    * An inquiry into the trainwreck of the policing situation in Ottawa needs to happen. These men and women are literally earning copious amounts of overtime pay for standing around, and not enforcing by laws and ordinances that would make life safer and less stressful for the residents near the protests. 

    They're going to have a heck of a time shutting it down, as the Free-dumb snowball has been rolling for weeks and is quite large.

    That’s because your a selfish person … you are free to mandate your self.  Be responsible for yourself…wear a n95 mask if you choose.

    Ontario has shuttered schools and small business longer than anywhere else in Canada.  Business owners are struggling, business’s went under, mental health, domestic violence etc…

    The rest of the world are dumping mandates.  

    The vaccine is a joke.  Here, take 1 shot, then 2…oh wait…here have a 3rd…reports indicate the booster fades after 4 months, hers have another jab and maybe mandates will come off…

    next time be more thoughtful of others who have suffered and lost a lot on useless mandates to make YOU feel safe because YOU let mr. Blackface and butterball make you afraid.

    You do know Brian Pickford is filing a charter challenge?  

    And a hard no to QR codes…they are for products not people.

    Try reading the charter and rights and freedoms at once in your life.

    this is warfare..Has been from day a of this nonsense.

    big Pharma can stuff it.  Feel free to continue to be a pin cushion for an emergency vaccine..

    and no to medical segregation…and I have no problem eating lunch, having a beer or smoking a joint with an unvaccinated person…

    Do you inhale? How long do you hold it? Do you have lunch and a beer with an unvaccinated person or just a toke? Do you have beer with lunch or at lunchtime?

    Great post, BF, and I am glad to hear that there are a lot on clear thinking folks like yourself up there in Canada.  It's really a shame that do many, as you say, "Free-dumb" bozos making things look bad.
    Good to hear your views here!

    Maybe you can explain to me where in the charter it says it's okay to occupy a city and block borders.

    Just so we're clear, I won't wait for an answer. Based on you're posts here you struggle with reading and writing so I don't actually believe you've read the charter.

    People will interpret and twist the charter to fit their own narrative and blissfully ignore that which does not fit their narrative…. Kinda like the bible…

    people also mistakenly believe we have the same rules of law as the United States….

    this world is going crazy where the minority feel their feelings trump the majority. The PPC would be in legitimate power if that was the way the people felt 

    continue holding your breath and stomping your feet and trying to get your way… and good luck getting the US to change their rules

    Has it ever occurred to anyone that the cops are tired of enforcing health orders… The only reason they got the ambassador bridge cleared is it was just a bunch of citizens with no connection to Ottawa…and they kept that bridge offline for 6 days costing the economy billions…similarly to the billions mr blackface and butterball has cost us with lockdowns based on fear..

    Why aren’t you down at the Ambassador bridge with your family, lying on the road like it’s Tienneman Square?  Since you support something, shouldn’t you be willing to put your life down for it?  Don’t talk about, be about it.  Arm yourself and get in there. Isn’t that what you said the Ukraine thread?
