    On tonight's news it will no doubt be explained to us how these people have now co-opted the song into a racist chant.

    You will never see that on msm.   1.5 billion to the cbc and 650 million to the other rags buy silence … imo.  Pretty sad what Trudeau has done to do Canada, he makes Trump look GOOD.  Of course did Trump ever call the working class racist?  I still can’t believe that divisive prick called the working class racist…and the cowherd is in hiding.  It’s supposed to snow in Ottawa…

    Seeing how you Canucks helped storm our capitol, I guess the least we could do is return the favor?

    ‘Significant element’ from U.S. involved in self-described ‘Freedom Convoy’ in Canada, official says


    TORONTO — Ottawa police said Wednesday that a “significant element” from the United States has been involved in the participation, funding and organization of a self-described “Freedom Convoy” that has for several days jammed streets in the capital to protest public health measures and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

    “They have converged in our city, and there are plans for more to come,” said Ottawa Police Chief Peter Sloly. He said that the participants, who also include locals and other Canadians, are “putting our city and our residents, our partners and our officers at great risk.”

    The number of protesters has declined substantially from the thousands on Parliament Hill over the weekend. But a determined core group remains, officials say. With trucks noisily blocking streets, businesses shut down and residents frustrated for the sixth day, pressure has mounted on police to bring a resolution to the disruption.

    This thing's basically turning into another chapter of the Occupy movement,  which my city left in place for a couple months despite complaints from neighbourhood residents at the time. So why the rush to move this particular group?

    I guess we'll see how good it is when we find out their next leader. Hopefully it's a centrist I can get behind. But I have my doubts. 
    The caucus gave him the boot for not being right enough. They didn't like how he pulled them to the left.

    You are right to be doubtful.

    Which seems crazy to me, because in Canada we seem to have a much smaller part of our population being on the far right.  So by going further to the right you alienate the centre.  You end up attracting a bunch of northern bc and prairie votes and not much else.

    I wish we can a centre party... lol.   It feels like we have two lefts and a right.   Spend it all an go broke, or cut all the taxes and go broke :)

    A Reform Conservative split has to come or they will never get away from their troubles and poor showings. You cannot hide the hardcore’s in that party, they are too extreme for people in Canada that want a centrist party 

    And a split will never get them enough votes for a national victory 

    a total catch 22

    Erin got voted out because he tried to out liberal the liberals…pretty easy to understand.  His downfall began when he flipped flopped on the carbon tax fraud…he’s a liberal masquerading as a conservative, same as Kenney and Ford … only a fool of a conservative leader would accept pay raises and allow his caucus to accept pay raises and want to raise taxes during a pandemic when inflation is soaring…

    i do not know if this is true…rumour has semis rolling into queens park this weekend…but at this point if you don’t think these these truckers and this grass roots movement is serious then your not paying attention…other than maybe the RCMP the police in Ottawa support the protestors.  The police are not your personal security to enforce public health guidelines…
