Love the sarcasm.

My head hurts! I read the original post and the response to a comment by the original poster. I suspect you are non white, non catholic and non male and maybe non Canadian. I cannot make hide nor hair of your blathering even giving your the benefit of thinking your subject has something to do with Quebec separation. What is your point? What are your objections and to what? Good luck straightening your thoughts out.

OK. Time will tell.

They said it may take a year. And it is not an inquiry into the truckers, it is into the issuance and requirement and usage of the emergency act. Burt hey, you must be right. Maybe you should just write the report for them and save a year Oh and, stop making stuff up again. I know it pains you but give it a try

Yup, pessimism, as expected. You have no idea who is on the investigation team.

Getting back to topic of the trucker convoy and the repercussions to the Emergency Act. It seems the feds have opened a public inquiry as required by the Emergency Act. "The federal government has officially called an independent public inquiry into its use of the Emergencies Act during the blockades at Canadian border crossings and in Ottawa earlier this year." https://ottawa.citynews.ca/local-news/government-calls-inquiry-into-use-of-emergencies-act-5297259

China is also gaining control of the Panama Canal operations.

Yeah OK. Another discussion with no end. Your opinion, my opinion....neither one is worth anything as in the end, the courts will decide. As I said, it may just end up being a slap on the wrist and the fool still sitting jail will be there all for naught. BTW. There are a bunch of bikers planning protests in Ottawa this weekend. When a organizer was asked what they were protesting he had no answer. He did not know LOL Anyway, the Ottawa Police are going to ensure things go peacefully and "One of the organizers of a planned motorcycle convoy is warning of a "free-for-all" on Friday if Ottawa police don't allow hundreds of protesters to bring their bikes onto the streets around Parliament Hill." https://ottawa.citynews.ca/local-news/convoy-organizer-warns-of-free-for-all-if-police-ban-protest-from-downtown-ottawa-5297297 Ottawa Police statement regarding this weekends motorcycle protests https://ottawa.citynews.ca/police-beat/ottawa-police-service-releases-statement-regarding-rolling-thunder-event-this-weekend-5296804 Should make for an interesting weekend here on Ottawa

When you place a RV sideways on a street blocking traffic in both directions. When you put up a car on blocks blocking traffic in both directions. When you plunk big trucks in the middle of the roads and lock and leave them blocking traffic in both directions....that is a blockade. Yeah, the police chief should have resigned for inaction from day 2 of the protest. He really screwed up with his inaction. Barriers were to prevent more vehicles from coming into downtown. They directed all other vehicles away from downtown to a baseball stadium parking lot.. Absolutely they can hold organizers liable for the actions of their followers if they tell the followers to do things that are against the rules and laws. Just by telling them to stay and block roads they told folks to do something illegal. Pat King is a fool and looking stupider every day. He cannot find a lawyer and hen he does, he fires them. He sits in jail because he is a fool. If he had any kind of case, he would be out long before now. He is just liking the free room and board he is getting because he has no other means of support. Who would hire that joker now? LOL That Lich chick eventually had someone bail her out and now she is trying to get the court ordered restrictions lifted until she goes to trial. Why has her case not yet been heard? Probably because her lawyer cannot find any loopholes to squeeze her through. Lastly, and I am not defending Trudeau, but he has nothing to do with the court actions against them. All those ticketed or charged broke existing laws. Personally, I think they will both get off with a hand slap but, the courts point will have been made and they will have a record tagged on them for life. Good luck leaving the country...or more importantly, good luck trying to get into other countries.

They were charged and ticketed for breaking laws. Yes, police directed traffic downtown to allow a peaceful protest not knowing they were going to blockade and set up camps. Anyone that wanted to leave was able to leave unless they were barricaded in by other protesters vehicle that were unwilling to move. Organizers of anything can be held responsible for the issues and actions they create. (protesters and organizers of the Jan 6 in Washington issue as an example). Anyone wanting to go to court to contest the ticket or charge is eligible to do so. do so. Are they? Maybe they have no case? The one guy in jail has to be the biggest fool of the whole thing. He must be an embarrassment to the protesters

There ya go, a very reasonable and thought out comment. Congrats.

Absolutely they should sue on those grounds. Go for it.

Exactly the same reasons you cannot do anything or change anything about how Canada is governed. So, your diatribes and opinions are irrelevant too.

Demonstrate and show where the banks discriminated against anyone based on political beliefs? If accounts were frozen, then is was as a result breaking some law. "only asked banks to freeze the accounts of people and organizations who were actually at the so-called “Freedom Convoy” protests in Ottawa, and only after officers called most of the targeted protesters to warn them." "banks received the power to monitor and even freeze accounts of individuals tied to the protests." https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/banks-were-only-asked-to-freeze-accounts-of-freedom-convoy-protestors-in-ottawa-and-after-most-were-warned-rcmp Getting arrested should result in charges. Now, having said that, maybe if they did not break the existing laws, they would not have been arrested. If you decide to willingly break a law, then you accept the consequences of your actions. If you go 80 in a 50 zone, you will get a ticket. If you drive drunk, you will be arrested. Break a law, you get nailed.

OK. Your opinion. I support a bank being able to do what it needs to to stay within the law. ' As for you complaint about sidewalks, is is all in your imagination as I have demonstrated to you in another thread. No one is charged and no one is being charged and no one is being threatened as long as they stay within existing laws, old existing laws. But hey, its OK. As I said "I stand for doing what is needed to get it right. I stand for law and order. I stand for peaceful protests and not disrupting the lives of citizens. I stand for freedom of expression within the boundaries of civility. I stand for being able to civilly discussing disputes over any topic. I stand for anyone to have an opinion on anything without retribution by those that do not agree with the opinion. I stand for the ability to leave if things are no of your liking. I stand for being able to make choices. I stand for those living with the consequences of those decisions. I stand by and applaud the ones that actually do something about their convictions as opposed to blowing smoke and vitriol on forums. "

Way to assume. 1. I believe in free enterprise business. 2. I have never seen any politician personally harass protesters. I see law enforcement officials enforcing existing laws if forced into it. I stand for doing what is needed to get it right. I stand for law and order. I stand for peaceful protests and not disrupting the lives of citizens. I stand for freedom of expression within the boundaries of civility. I stand for being able to civilly discussing disputes over any topic.

There may be more but that should give you enough ammunition to mount an attack

From your link. The reason they were arrested "Police arrested six people the following week – five for breaching the injunction, one for assaulting an officer." Nothing selective. They were arrested under existing laws, as it also states in your link.

They can still do as they wish and yes, they are the same as a hardware store. They do not want their business so, that is that. Regardless, going off your own topic again I see

OK, mine are all factual as well as far as I am concerned

Seriously? If Chris Barbers tictok is a reliable sources, then why is my opinion not considered to be reliable source?

Ha Ha Ha. Tiktok....there is a reliable news source Ha Ha Ha.

Ouch...what a retort! LOL An "eloquent FY" when you have no answers.

The only one going in circles is you. Your topic heading is fear mongering. When pointed out that no one has been charged you began dancing. Then your tried the Calgary fan thing and was shown to you that they only made an injunction to show they will enforce existing laws. And you are still dancing. Nothing in the article except backing up what I said to you. No blow to anything, let alone free speech and no abuse of anything and no charges have been laid, none, zip, nada. Lots of dormant laws out there going unused and these are a few more. Oh and in the parks of Calgary, where it’s against the law to “do anything which is likely to attract a crowd” outside of areas where sports, performances and so forth are specifically allowed. Another very old unused law

Point was he made his $9 Million while being an lowly MP. He never had a job elsewhere. He came in non millionaire, now lives in a luxurious house just outside of Ottawa and is a multi millionaire. On your taxpayer dollar. Just bringing it up to show he is no better than any other "corrupt" politician.

Absolutely nothing. It just puts into question how one can accumulate so much when only being a MP. If a liberal MP became multi millionaire while in office, there would be a shit storm here but, it is OK for a conservative?
