They won't move their trucks, time for some force...I am very disappointed in Justin not sending in the military!!!!!
Ford Invokes State of Emergency
- Thread starter unassuming
- Start date
They should setup a race, the fastest truck gets to get away without charges, the rest get impounded. The unvaxxed and the furious.
Blocking
The
Subversive hate groups emanating from Alberta are one of the most serious threats working against national unity and the pandemic threat in Canada presently. Jason Kenney is being puppeted by many a bitter malcontent.
The supply chain is already being harmed even with those ones still open. Michigan auto workers are losing $51M/day because of layoffs caused by the protests.
Phil the issue here is the difference between protest and occupation. If the Protesters had gone to Ottawa, done one day or even two, then packed up that would have been acceptable. As well having a clearly defined and reasonable set of demands.
However they went to occupation, which coupled with the continuing harassment of locals placed them into unacceptable. Add on their demands include not just JT step down but the suspension outright of Democracy in Canada.
As well the bridges. I have no issues with blocking a business by a union(long term) and protesters(short term) so long as they obey the laws on legal access by people. But they are not following this. Its a basic law and right in Canada they can't stop anyone from going about their lawful business. But they are.
Its not where can they, its how are they thats the problem.
the better question is what does occupation achieve. that is not democracy. if you do not like the government, vote them out.
They mostly seemed to ignore the flyers being handed out by police headlined "Did You Know" explaining the ramifications of the province's state of emergency declaration that day.
That declaration, repeated on the flyer, stated that it was illegal to block the movement of goods, people and services along critical infrastructure, and that non-compliance could result in a maximum fine of up to $100,000 and up to a year in prison for non-compliance.
Auto sector affected
The injunction was sought by several auto groups including the Automotive Parts Manufacturers' Association, which has argued the protest blocking traffic along the major U.S.-Canada trade route is costing the sector tens of millions of dollars each day.
Right on queue… don’t read the thread and show up with hypocrisy. You never cease to disappoint.
At least Uncharted is on record of supporting this protest, and supporting the the natives “right” to protest in the old threads. I acknowledged him for that.

Nothing they do was ever going to achieve anything. It's a small, fringe minority of idiots with no coherent policy except petulance and self-importance who are trying to overturn the results of an election.
It's ludicrous. It lasted as long as it did because no one in Canada had ever seen something as stupid before and it took people a while to get really pissed off.
Sending a letter to the Governor General demanding he dismiss the Prime Minister is about as boneheaded as can be.
Not sure what is amusing. You do not seem to understand the concept of law. I understand completely what the consequences of my actions are. I may wish to protest the laws which will be my right. i may chooses to disobey the law and suffer the consequences. I can demonstrate if I like. But what I cannot do is shut down bridges and roads, shut down cross-border traffic which is costing workers on both sides of the border millions of dollars every day and what i cannot do is attempt to extort the people and government of Canada to change laws passed by the democratically elected government to comply with my view of what the law ought to be. Not difficult concepts.What amuses me how a bunch of criminals on this board argue that people should follow all government laws because these laws were set by the government voted in by the majority of the people and the government must insure that all people abide by the law. The same people are happy the to violate a criminal law by paying for sex, yet, when truckers violate municipal by-laws and highway act, they want to involve the army
Shutting down the economy is an act of terrorism by a foreign country nonetheless
The malcontent movements south of the border, MAGA etc have seeded insurrection in Canada attacking the elected Government in Canada towards collapsing the Trudeau government and indirectly attack Biden. There is a big connection between the January 6, 2021 coup attempt in Washington and the coup attempt in Ottawa. The malcontent movements in Canada, many originating from Alberta will continue to network with American renegades to enable domestic destruction terrorist tactics. Some in Alberta wish to inflict their oil patch downturn frustration, grievances and political grudges on the rest of Canada and MAGA has found some useful idiot puppets in that province in particular.
What will these individuals who hide behind vaccine mandates do next ? I predict that the subversive tactics will eventually result in violence and death compounding the grim reality of the pandemic. If an other variant of significant virulence hits which is likely then much sadness will result . And when these ignorant “rig pigs” get sick with Covid-19, and they will , they are the worst type of “me first “, entitled, obnoxious ingrates for the non discriminatory healthcare staff to deal with.
