Have at your vaccine.  I was told if we get vaccinated all mandates are removed.  They lied.  It took these protest to move to bring these mandates to an end..

I will not be taking anymore vaccine…lockdowns never worked.  It put a strain on everyone who was effected in some way..Stop the bullshit. 

yeah, because the pandemic has been static for two years. 

these protests did nothing. these restrictions being lifted were in the works for weeks. but sure, keep on believing in your "victory". hahaha

lockdowns worked to ease the burden on the health care system; fact. but you don't care about doctors and nurses who have been demonized while healing the sick, spat on for doing their jobs, exhausted from treating the unvaccinated; just the "oppressed" truckers. 

way to be on the right side. 

I have to respectfully disagree on your take regarding the convoy.  I feel this was successful on a couple levels.  One, being the publics increased involvement in politics once again- either for or against (I believe Oftenreading mentioned this before).  Secondly, if anything it has shown that the people can have their voices heard regardless of the method or size and make an impact.    Finally, Unity across all cultures.  Yes yes i get you guys are against this.. ive seen it on the last hundred pages. Ha

If talks were taking place in January- why not interact with convoy to inform at that time?  I guess you would still have protests (people camping out and such) but perhaps a smaller contingent not tying up the streets of Ottawa or across Canada. I think it was the pressure applied with the blocking of the ambassador bridge if anything that finally got it to the point we are at today.   Pressure from Biden and the auto industry greased the wheels.  Also, let me put on my tin foil hat for a sec haha, if talks/plans were in place, was this a ploy for JT to invoke the EMA?  tighter Gov't controls?

To refer to this group as the free-dumb convoy as many of you have stated here, is just wrong, they are anything but imo.  

bash away...

From what I've seen...  folks who appear to care about our country have not gotten more involved in politics.  They've been fed a steady diet of propaganda on the internet and are now lost.  

While I jokingly do refer to these as free-dumb convoy members...  this is why I think they're dumb:

Flying a F&^% Trudeau flag does not make you 'involved in politics' .. it means you're an attention seeking moron with zero respect.

'Demanding' a vote of no confidence months after a federal election is... well... stupid. 

Screaming at reporters "Fake News" and harassing them while they are covering the convoy is once again vulgar, attention seeking, disrespectful, moronic behaviour. Not to mention, they are only cementing my personal opinion that these are the same types of people who show up Trump rallies, just the Canadian version. 

There is zero right to grant anyone the ability to honk their horns all day and night. That one would think they can and should do this... makes them... dumb. And disrespectful. 

Comparing Trudeau to anything remotely close to a dictator is just false. I'm sorry it doesn't fit your narrative and I'm sorry it reputes your zinger tweets. It's factually incorrect. I'll be the first to say that he has been corrupt, disrespectful, and an asshole.  Go ahead, be critical of him. But do it correctly. Want to suggest he's corrupt? Point to SNC Lavalin, not the mandates. I would love nothing more than to have this opinion challenged. Those on 'the front' in Ottawa... should put their opinions to the test. Go to Moscow's Red Square, park a truck that says "FUCK PUTIN" on it and then just chill there for a bit. I double dare them. 

There is zero right to grant anyone the ability to block a roadway, except for police. 

To spend the time and money to go to these protests and blockades is... well... dumb. And I'm not saying that about all protests, just this one. Why is it dumb?  The leaders of the Liberal and NDP party made it crystal clear where they stood on the issue of the pandemic, vaccines, and mandates. They won the election. Simple as that. A minority group of people threatening and making demands for federal change after an election is the fundamental opposite of social democracy. 

If you watch that fellow I posted earlier... James Boull (?).  You're going to watch that man and not come to the conclusion that he is... wait for it, dumb as fuck?  And guess what, most of the convoy folk still there are just like him. 

These are selfish, narrow-minded, disrespectful, bored, moronic people who believe anything they're told so long as it fits their narrative. They think they represent Canada, when they do not. They think they are a majority, they are not. They think they're allowed to be doing this, they are not. They buy into fear mongering bullshit on the internet video after video, tweet after tweet, meme after meme, until they are so entrenched in their mindset that they believe they are so righteous and the world is out to get them. This is textbook cult like behaviour. 

I know the person who is front and centre in front of parliament.... she's part of the 'live from the shed' people.  They are attention seeking social media darlings.  They want attention, they want followers, they want to be seen and heard. They want to be different... they like being different. She has children which she has left with her two baby daddies to go join this convoy. She is an absolute attention seeking train wreck of a human. She is the type of person that this 'movement' is attracting. Brainless half-wits who are avoiding actual real life responsibilities. Has she been using her child tax benefit? Yes. Did she claim CERB? Yes. 

Speaking of her... she has not suffered from a single federal mandate. Not one. Not one single federal mandate has affected her life. LOTS of Provincial and Municipal mandates have. Yet there she is... at our nation's capital protesting against the federal government. That is dumb. Rant over. 

The patience of some people sometimes astounds me.

Anti-mandate protest outside B.C. high school leads to confrontation, protester hurling insults at student

After about 15 minutes, Allen says things turned "hostile" as one adult singled out a student of South Asian descent.

In a video filmed by another student, a woman identified by RCMP as Silke Schulze of Oliver, B.C., can be seen leaning toward the student and yelling, "I have a f--ing right to be in this country, do you?

They're a small group of (for lack of a better word) whackos who constructed a shed-like platform in front of the parliament buildings. If you've never heard of it, it's because it was never a thing before this.  They are using this convoy as a means of catapulting themselves into relevance amongst the other wackos and freedom convoy folk. They're branding themselves as a broadcasting and media production company. 

I may not agree with this in principal... but it actually has some nefarious credibility. It worked for Chris Sky, it worked for that Adamson BBQ fellow.  If I saw even 100,000 people dive so far into a movement.. .a movement that raised almost 10 million dollars, got international attention, got praise from Russell Brand, Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson, the Trumps, DeSantis, Fox News.......  why not jump on the bandwagon and exploit it?  The answer is because you're a decent person....  but we're not talking about decent people here.

peaceful demonstrations are a cornerstone of democracy.....problem is....this ain't peaceful. 

And legal. 

People can do a lot of things that are non-violent but still quite disruptive. I think it was Darth that mentioned equality amongst demonstrators. I think of folks who blocked railways and folks who tie themselves to trees in BC to protect old growth forests. 

Plenty of smart folks on here.. so perhaps someone either already knows or don't mind doing the leg work... but has any protest brought any change to society in Canada? 

Two years almost to the day was the pipeline protests. Like a mirror image, different causes.

Copied from Wikipedia: 

"On February 18, the House of Commons of Canada resumed after the winter break. Trudeau addressed the Commons asking Canadians for patience as the government sought a negotiated end. "On all sides, people are upset and frustrated. I get it. It's understandable because this is about things that matter—rights and livelihoods, the rule of law and our democracy." Opposition leader Andrew Scheer condemned the government's refusal to use the police to stop the illegal blockades, calling it "the weakest response to a national crisis in Canadian history. Will our country be one of the rule of the law, or will our country be one of the rule of the mob?" Trudeau held a private meeting with the other opposition parties' leaders, barring Scheer after his comments"

If the Liberals had a half a brain.. they would be taking that Andrew Scheer quote and making Bergen choke on it. (metaphorically speaking)

What do you think the illegal freezing of bank accounts were about… Remember Christa Freeland said they need to figure away to unlock Canadians savings… They found an illegal way to do that.   We have courts whose job is to determine guilt or innocence…not politicians with liberal arts degrees…who can barely tie their shoes…

PJPOWER

I find it interesting that the same people around here (American and Canadian) that were supportive of people disrupting roadways and violent protests, mentioning “remember the Boston Tea Party (illegal protest, btw)” are the same ones speaking out against disruptive, illegal protests now.  I remember mentioning how allowing illegal, violent protests is setting precedent for future protests, but was still told “the only way for change is disrupting society”, but here we are.  Either you allow it for all or you don’t.  You cannot support “certain” protests to block roadways and disrupt society and not others.  Where is the Boston Tea Party remembrance now? 

I, for one, do not support ANY political protests that involve blocking roadways and disrupting people’s lives as far as safety or getting to work, hospitals, etc, but I’m not at all surprised we’re seeing this shit now, after the way protests over the last few years were supported.  If you don’t support violent, illegal protests, then don’t support violent, illegal protests, whether you support the root cause or not. 

Just my 2 cents…
