The grave mistake the so-called "freedom" convoy and other protesters make in my view is they do not understand freedom has always had it's limits. For example, I don't have the right to break government health regulations or mandates if they say I must wear a mask in a certain venue or I must be vaccinated to enter a certain location. The reason for the regulations and mandates were and are to protect other people. People who don't accept that are being very self-centred and inconsiderate of other people. That's all there is to it.

Yup. Control the media? Check Segregate a portion of the population with ID cards for goods and services? Check Deny family access to their loved ones? Check Clamp down on gathering so free flow of ideas can't be discussed? Check Fake Emergencies enforced by rogue police with no regard for rule of law? Check Threats and intimidation? Check Scapegoating a portion of the population for sickness and economic decline? Check Surveillance state? Check How can we not see the parallels? Only thing missing is mass murder... judging by history that may be next

Since the West has lost all moral credibility, every moral judgment they want to make leads to hypocrisy.

Merely proof that they only agree with that which validates what they already believe. Bubble-strengthening is all it is.

No. From where I'm sitting what's most fucked up in the world about addiction and marginalization of addicts is the result of having to suffer and accommodate social conservatism. Social conservatives, hands-down bar-none full-stop are the most fucked up people on the planet. The drugs addicts need should have been legal and years and years ago. It isn't progressives who insist on maintaining the status quo, that's strictly on you people. The only time I've ever seen a conservative give an addict a break is when they're associating the plight of an addict with even more deplorable people. I guess that would be people like me. Is it just me or is there something perverse and wrong in how the only time the word social is an acceptable political descriptor for conservatives is when they look down on people they've judged to be intolerable or even sub-human? I guess this is why I'm increasingly prone to associate the word asshole with conservative.

This sounds like real horseshit to me. College teachers and students are having unprotected kinky sex and conservatives are meh about it? What's happened to all the conservatives, what's turned them into such a bunch of pussies more concerned about socks, hair and the odd trailer park dummies frozen bank account?

But what about all you conservatives though? You must number in the millions. Every last one of you are just going to roll over and let Mr Socks murder you? Exactly WTF is the matter with you people. You lack the courage of your convictions? You're afraid, defeated, too depressed...what exactly? I simply cannot believe it. And again I ask, why are we not seeing Jewish Canadians fleeing what's coming and warning us all to get out why we can? When you see the inability of you people to answer questions like this you are faced with only two possibilities; 1. how completely filled with shit all this nonsense about Trudeau and the Nazi Party really is or 2. that conservatives constitute the biggest herd of chickenshit sheep that ever caved to oppression.

You mean it hasn't been frozen already? And how come mine isn't frozen given all the bad-mouthing of Trudeau that I engage in? How do you explain it?

let us not forget that the National Socialist Third Reich was also an illiberal democracy the NSDAP did not seize power by force of arms the NSDAP was elected to a minority government with a 33% plurality and by 1938, Adolf Hitler had an 89% approval rating and just like the Liberal Party of Canada, the Nazis erased history to replace it with a Post National State and just like the Liberals, the Nazis imposed their own flag and national anthem to replace the imperial ones and just as the National Socialists were the opposite of national & socialist the Liberals in Canada are the Orwellian opposite of liberal

not a liberal democracy Majoritarian is an illiberal democracy the Soviet Union was a democracy in theory Soviet means Council, which was the mechanism of their tyrannical democracy the difference was the lack of individual rights against the totalitarian rule of the Bolshevik majority this sort of government is prohibited in Canada by the constitution the first 33 Sections being the Charter of Rights & Freedoms to protect the individual against majority rule for someone who claims to have served 35 years in HM Canadian Forces you are shockingly ignorant as to the terms of Canadian Westminster Parliamentary liberal democracy rather, you in fact invoke the doctrine of the illiberal mob rule of the Soviet Bolsheviks

Otherwise known a democracy.

I look in the mirror and see someone living in Canada with all the freedoms and constitutional rights to keep me happy. I do not compare to any communist country because if I did, I would see that I have all the freedoms that they do not.

I don't think the Republicans can afford to get over confident with the midterms. When things look too rosy is when Conservatives in general tend to screw up. We tend to lay back and let the nasties sneak in under cover. Republicans still have RINO, Neo Con and progressive infiltrator infestations to worry about. I don't know how far they can trust the 'walk away' NeoLibs that are pretending to be "one of us" now either. The Deep State or Swamp is a problem too. I know they and theirs tell us they don't exist, and we should be despised and ignored for noticing the obvious fact they do exist and they're a problem. A big problem. Also you can always tell a Prog by the twisted, or ill defined lie labels they use. When they tell us they're concerned about "election integrity" or the "death of democracy" what they really mean it they plan to cheat. Republicans need to remember when whoever it was said 'It doesn't matter who votes. It's who counts the votes" he knew what he was talking about. Zuckerbucks style election time scams need to be dealt with before the midterms and the Republicans are acting like they don't think they happen. They do and they're a big problem for the integrity of the midterms. Now is the time Republicans need to attack like a Prog would. They need to clear the battle field. They need to get scared like if they don't click it into gear the end of the world is coming. Now when things look rosy more than ever . Because it just might be.

it's not that the Communists have aligned themselves with the Crown rather they have taken the Crown as a hostage the Communists have seized control from within, as that is the modus operandi of the Communists they have infiltrated all the institutions in Canada, imposing their Bolshevism by way of those levers they have seized the power of the monarch this way, and are now turning that power against you the American counterrevolution is simply pursuing its Communist enemy into Canada as Canada has become a safe haven for Anti-Western Bolsheviks now under the rule of the madman Trudeau

I know...I scanned that posturing, string of non sequitur illogic and thought to myself, "WTF...is he serious?" Kind of reminded me of people that follow conspiracy theories like oh, for example the Rothchild's run a cabal of Jews that aren't actually Jews that run the world and they somehow got Putin to invade the Ukraine. We know this cause, Protocols of the Elders of Zion. As far as the issue of this thread goes though it's real simple to me. Disney had a sweet deal in Florida. The smart play would have been to shut up and enjoy it. Instead they thought it would be a good idea to interfere with Floridian politics. They messed with the wrong bull. They got the horn. Too bad, so sad, Dummies.

Pandemic planned? Yeah, OK. There is a new one LOL Zero COVID in China? Are you well? Have you not been paying attention to the entire cities shut down. To COVID emergency centres with hundred and hundreds of quarantine beds All masking and vaccination mandates (air and train travel excepted) were all Provincial Immigration is another issue entirely and a topic that should be discussed.

While we’ll probably never know for sure whether the pandemic was planned, the measures to fight it were extreme and we now know and governments know what humans will tolerate and what level of “risk”, perceived or real, is necessary to lock people down, restrict their actions, and mandate medical treatments and face coverings or other uniforms. Humanity will accept a certain amount of enslavement for reasons of health and safety. Health and safety purity become the justification to remove citizens’ constitutional rights. Zero Covid in China is the exemplar. Some American states decided that it was better for the protection of the integrity of the society (freedoms, community, mental health, etc.) to accept a higher Covid death rate but to keep businesses open and let mask wearing and vaccination be individual choices. This is where the great divide is today. I personally don’t believe in mandates. Early in the pandemic I and most people accepted the idea that they were worth having to prevent mass deaths. Where many people checked out was when governments tried to maintain masking even after vaccines became almost universally available and most eligible people became vaccinated. That’s when government overreach in countries like Canada became too obvious to ignore or accept. The fact that our federal government continues to maintain vaccine passports for travel and federal jobs is deeply concerning. Even though Omicron is everywhere and most people have had it, vaccinated and unvaccinated, with a much lower death rate than the initial variants, our government is holding onto certain controls. Does it have anything to do with Klaus Schwab’s fervent opinion that we cannot go back to our pre-pandemic lifestyles? How does the World Economic Forum think we should live? We have big clues. Most people can work from home in isolation from others, including during holidays. Most people can be made to live locally, even with curfews. We may not have provincial mandates on masking and vaccines, but Canada does and fuel and the prices of goods and homes are literally making everyone significantly poorer. If my salary rises 1% the same year that inflation rises 7%, I am 6% poorer. If the interest rates on my mortgage rise 2% in a year, my monthly payments rise significantly. Did our governments cause this? Yes, because they shut down businesses and flooded the markets with borrowed money, causing inflation. They caused lockdowns that created supply chain issues, adding to inflated costs. They reduced available labour through vaccine mandates, driving up costs. Finally, and this is particularly ideological, the Democrat and Liberal governments shut down energy production. Our Liberals continue to add carbon taxes to our outrageously high fuel prices, adding insult to injury. Housing prices are especially bad in Canada because we have used immigration as a way to stoke growth. Most of the 300 to 400 thousand immigrants who come to Canada each year go to the GTA and Greater Vancouver. This is basic demand versus supply. We also don’t talk about the fact that any so called emissions reductions caused by green policies like carbon taxes are totally undone by our real population increases. Almost all of our inflation is due to government policies that can be altered.

Sounds interesting but all information must be qualified. Yes they can work if - properly fitted, shaped mask - virus level protection - no facial hair - training on their use. Not terribly complicated stuff, but without knowing what you’re doing it’s pointless and maybe even more dangerous. .... ”There is no virus protection by half-measures.” - L. Pasteur OftenWrong

That’s exactly why I consider it my civic duty and moral obligation to never wear the mask, so that others will see that I can do so, and not die. Then eventually they will do it as well. The f*cking cowards

We are two years into incessant drumming and lying propaganda - please show any evidence that mask mandates have any noticeable efficiency outside of, attention - peak of infection and compact densely populated areas with prolonged contact and we see people wearing them in parks, open spaces where it makes no reasonable sense just none. This is an illustration and a lesson: ongoing massive propaganda can change minds and will change them. There's no need to ask how it happened in Nazi Germany and Putin's Russia. This is how. Just look.

Here in my part of ON it is the other way around. You can almost take a “stupidity poll” going to the market. Especially... the outdoor mask wearer.

My rule of thumb is generally to reserve judgment on any "breaking news" stories that sounds like a hit piece because often it is a hit piece

No. Can't you read? I said there is medical vulnerability in my household and so doctors have advised we avoid catching COVID. The fact there are so many stupid people in society who don't give a shit about others is also a factor.

Yup, world wide inflation is the blame of the Canadian government mask mandate??? Not the US. Not Germany. Not the UK. Not Australia. Just Canada. You certainly have a narrow view. My paranoia?? I have non. I am OK and not the one whining and complaining and protesting and demonstrating. I got on with my life. Yup, unions are demanding safe work environments so blame the Canadian government for allowing unions?

You are either under the influence of your substance of choice, deluded or just plain ignorant of reality. Perhaps a combo of all three. it doesn’t matter, your horizons will expand greatly once Trudeau and Biden, and the power base they control are uprooted like the weeds they are. What you do with this great opportunity is on you. For one, I will offer help to any that will accept it.

You like to toss about insults and try to anger people with your blatant seething lies. But one of these days...Tweenkie boy...you'll run face to face with someone whose not so even tempered. When you do...run! You don't really want a real man to get his mud hooks on you.

The Russian aggression against Ukraine will end but in Russian defeat. Ukraine armed with heavy Western weaponry will push back the cowardly Russian army to its borders and out of Ukrainian soil in about 6 months to a year (depending on the speed of delivery by the West) with heavy casualties on Russian army. Putin will be regarded responsible for the defeat and will die in a violent manner.

That would make them Libs, so it would be counterproductive. I just gotta see what gave you this impression.... Yeah, we're well aware of your lack of principles. It's your superpower. LOL, that's what you've been doing this whole time - voting for leftists who use taxpayer money to buy media coverage and votes. That was my whole point about Libs. You've had your nose up to their duodenum this whole time, I'm pretty sure you knew that. That was probably your cousin/siblings.

LITTLE CONFUSED BUDDY WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION WAS ALL RIGHT WING BULLSHIT> There is no arguments, that's a hoot, I'm right and you are wrong. You are a traitor to my country as is all Diaper Dons MAGA MAGGOTS <I'm a patriot , something the right has no clue what they are anymore. You think this is a debate ,IT isn't I"m telling you and you are either listening or not, Don't care either way. You people are a joke.

The Green-Woke Totalitarians are still trying to consolidate power, but inflation and restrictions have upset citizens across the West. Marxist-nihilist beliefs like the idea that gender and biology are social constructs and institutions like family and national traditions are patriarchal and oppressive have confused and destabilized Gen Z. I’ve never seen Canadians in my lifetime so resigned and disempowered as they are today.

Biden hasn't acted as a moderate and has only made the country even more divisive. It's unlikely he will finish his first term. Trump should should sit out 2024 and give some other republican a shot. They have a number of good candidates. The nuttiness has to end.

I don't think that 'understanding' is gonna be your thing, and you definitely aren't looking at opinions from all sides. It's not an opinion that Israel normalized relations with the UAE, it's just a fact that you don't have to acknowledge if you don't want to. Your choice of words didn't mask the stench. I know how you feel about Trump's support for the Israelis. The first part of that is probably too true, luckily Trump loves America almost as much as he loves himself. As for the second part, regardless of his reasons for choosing Kushner, it worked out and that's really all that matters. The first statement is just basic. Everyone on earth knows that the Israelis are in a tough spot, you're just unwilling/unable to accept that fact because of your bias. Your unwillingness to answer the second question was expected, it was mostly a rhetorical question. That's just abject stupidity right there. FYI: 1) The only people who are neutral don't have a clue what's going on. 2) There sure as hell isn't a neutral coming to the table for Iran, Yemen, SA, etc, so who the hell would represent them? Can you explain to me how Pakistan exists? Is it a "rogue state"? Do you care to talk about how many people were killed in the TWO genocides that the new Pakistani regime committed, and how many people they killed? How many people did Israel kill in all that time, including the wars that were started by their enemies? I know that you won't touch those two questions with a ten foot pole because either you have no effing clue what you're talking about, it's against your religion, or both. You just keep making yourself look dumber every time you post. I'd laugh but your bigotry and the hateful propaganda that you spread is no joke.

Yup. And alot of those quotes turned out to be bang on as the media DID lie about a variety of things including the economic impact, the convoy trying to burn down an apartment building, the convoy leaders being tied to Russia, the Russians funding the convoy, and many other now debunked claims. As I already stated, as was the case with the fake collusion stories for the past four years, the pattern of behavior is 1. Smear with a fake claim. 2. Run it on a 24 hour news cycle. 3. Turns out story was fake. 4. Issue minor retraction to avoid lawsuits. 5. Move on to the next fake hoax. Media is at stage 4 now with the countless convoy stories now having to be retracted despite running fake hit pieces on the convoy to protect lunatics like Trudeau. Most never pay attention to the retraction and continue to push fake news despite it being fake.. and then when you point it out it's a fake story, they refuse to acknowledge it, call you a conspiracy theorist etc... classic examples of gaslighting Yet you still don't acknowledge it. Why?

So, this is what you consider 'science' huh? This is you 'examining and verifying?' An opinion piece about 60 meteorologists signing a letter? There's like 5,000 meteorologists in the US alone. And there is no evidence or science here at all. By contrast: https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/8/2/024024?fbclid=IwAR0EMFqnsAm706dVB4QAu1f9mZBSXj7N5BqpSNxbp0jItvh3jg3ITfpXJb8 And yes, we should be VERY worried about how many people were willing to violently end democracy with zero evidence. That shows unambiguously what a big problem the right wing disinformation campaign against America is. And, I honestly don't believe America will survive it.

Biden is loved by the left because he lies so well. Trump was hated by them because his truth telling exposed their various hidden agendas. Which is why the right got sweet on him while smiling up their sleeves(put that in the google translator!)

Massive propaganda is affecting people's minds and judgement for a long time after the events. This should not have been allowed in a democracy. Propaganda, with any intentions is a danger to democracy and has no place in it.

Masks in stores aren't mandatory for some time now. You don't see them a lot in those countries I visited, OK occasionally. Here, looks like 98%. What is democracy why do we still bother about it, when someone can just push a button thick white over red "here, this is bouga baaaad scary run! now vote for me and you'll be safe again"? Back to square zero.

Russia using gas for blackmail! - EU Gee....how on earth did you get yourselves in that pathetic situation? Duh? That just shows how Russia had managed to have outwitted you guys - and, how stupid you are!

1) Disney had absolutely no business whatsoever opining about Florida legislation. 2) Chiming in with the common lie about "Don't say gay" was just bizarre and disgusting. 3) They never should have had "self-governing, tax-free status" to begin with 4) DeSantis runs Florida democratically, that doesn't mean that he shouldn't stand up to Disney's BS. Disney stepped up publicly, Disney got gob-smacked publicly. Easy peasy.

I'm not the one peeing my pants and signaling the impending death of freedom and democracy. Stop projecting. ?

Woke Communist lunatics desecrate a church in Ottawa sectarian civil disorder being whipped up by the Government of Canada to divide & conquer their own citizens

the insane totalitarian Communist in Ottawa, next plan to impose their secular religion unto the military Padre's have been deemed to be inherently "racist" now the Liberal - NDP attack on Western civilization in Canada is accelerating the next thing to go will be the regiments themselves the Royal Canadian Regiment will be declared to be "racist" the 48th Highlanders of Canada will be declared to be "white supremacists" there are no limits to the destruction that the Liberals will heap upon their own history & traditions, obviously Raymond J. de Souza: New report recommends turning the Armed Forces into a secular theocracy The panel’s chaplaincy recommendations are a total assault not only on religious liberty, but the very idea of religion itself 'The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) may go to war — not in Ukraine, but against its own members who don’t conform to a new standard of theological intolerance. This week, the minister of national defence released the report of the Minister’s Advisory Panel on Systemic Racism and Discrimination. The panel, set up in December 2020 by the government of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, was given the “clear mandate to seek out the policies, processes and practices that enable systemic racism and discrimination in the Department of National Defence (DND) and CAF.” The terms of reference made it clear what the panel was to find: “All forms of systemic racism and discrimination, including anti-Indigenous and anti-Black racism, LGBTQ2+ prejudice, gender bias, right-wing extremism and white supremacy are exhibited within the CAF.” (It’s noteworthy that “right-wing extremism” was slipped in there. This government has a rather expansive view of what constitutes right-wing extremism; some days it is anyone who disagrees with the prime minister.)' The report is admirably brief for government work, a brisk 100 pages, but no less ambitious on that account. Unusually for a government body, the advisory panel began its weekly meetings with a prayer. Members turned toward “our Grandfathers the thunder beings, our Grandmother Moon and our Creator, however imagined.” https://nationalpost.com/opinion/raymond-j-de-souza-new-report-recommends-turning-the-armed-forces-into-a-secular-theocracy
