It does strike me as a bit ironic that the security situation was stable enough yesterday and last night to allow debate on the Emergencies Act, but once the police get involved the situation has deteriorated so that the emergency debate is canceled.
Yes, that may be an oversimplification, but after all the anxiety we’ve been told to feel about this protest (still no widespread violence in Ottawa or attempts to storm Parliament), I’ve devolved into seeking out any silly angles to this.

I saw some kids shoveling a snow wall into place blocking wellington avenue there.
And grownups are digging out trucks so they can leave.
I don’t like pushing kids to the front either, and haven’t since the Tamil protesters pushed the kids to the front of the group and walked them up a highway on-ramp to block traffic there back in the 90s or early Zeros.
yes, they are. not sure what that has to do with the kids being used to create a barrier.
I wasn’t doubting your account, or anyone else’s. As usual I just want a full, fair and accurate picture painted, and I hadn’t seen anyone reference the efforts to allow vacating of the area.

My guess is one less thing for security to worry about. Focus on clearing out the occupation.

prior to seeing the kids, they did mention on the livestream that adults were shoveling snow, but they didn't know what the intent was (to move it to allow people leaving, or to add it to a barrier-they didn't speculate beyond that)

Makes sense to me.
And continuing my irony(?) I should have made the point that it does make sense to me to suspend the debate, although didn’t we just spend all kinds of time and effort (and money) enabling Parliament to meet virtually?

Our state broadcaster at work for you...1.5 billion.
I fully realize the person made a Floydian (ooops, I meant Freudian, lol) slip, it was a simple mistake that live television is prone to. I’ll admit I’m still laughing at the phrasing though, lol.

From the “what’s good for the goose is good for the gander” files. Good luck doing fundraising for political causes in Canada through Gofundme in the future.

i thought the horse intentionally trampling the disabled indigenous woman as the highlight of my weekend…it was even better when Baghdad Bob tweeted that she threw a bike at the horse, when in fact it was her walker and she did not throw it…who needs the Olympics.
it was such an uprising that they were charging people with mischief…lol. Many protestors were held drove a few blocks away dropped off and were told not to go back, but they just went back…lol. It was such an emergency. Trudeau is such a fraud. Ottawa is such a fraud city.
The ottawa police hired Baghdad Bob to tweet for them…lol
The RCMP shithead that trampled the indigenous lady with his horse later bragged about it on social media…of course this is the same bunch that had know problem kicking the shit out of the indigenous, just because and ripped indigenous children away from their parents to put them in residential schools…just a bunch of stooges.

The Fox News contributor and frequent Sean Hannity enlisted field reporter added that “someone was taken to a hospital with a heart condition - not due to trampling. I want to clarify this again and apologize for any confusion.”
