No, it's not just provincial and municipal jurisdiction. Stop using that as an excuse.
Parliament Hill is the SEAT of FEDERAL government.
As an Ottawa council woman had said last night - when this is over, there'll be a reckoning.

Lol - the pundits are all talking about reckoning for governments!

All the pundits, eh?

yep.

What you see on tv are not all there is that support the convoy. Like, there are supporters from Ottawa who supports them and feed them apparently! Some take home protesters for supper and laundry! ?There are also the very quiet supporters - silently cheering at home.

Anyway you cut the turd, now though...it's sounding like a good idea for the Liberals. Take a page out of The Prince and replace the current...rotten dictator...with a far more benevolent one that can appear as the people's savior.
Wow...sorry about that folks. Justin is going to take a rest. We'll be picking a new leader.

I'm beginning to wonder why there aren't really any policing in Ottawa. Could the cops be supporters too?
-
Duh.

Are they raising the "kid" card? Is that a veiled threat?
I hope that's not what it sounds like. This could get really ugly. You don't threaten people with their family - especially their kids!
The Feds should come up with something constructive to DE-ESCALATE what's beginning to look like a dangerously volatile situation. Don't throw gas into the fire!
If what the feds say about mental health impacted by the restrictions is true - then, they should know better!

The children who have already died from the vaccine or been disabled and the children with myocarditis of whom 50% will die in the next 5 years.....whose fault is it?
-
Lol - they even got saunas. It was meant like a camping trips! Hahahaha
I bet that is the most memorable "adventure" the kids will always remember. Something to tell their own children about.

"When the police move in to finally bust it up, whose fault will it be that they’re there? "
TRUDEAU!
There's no need to bust it up. Look at Quebec City! Something was done diplomatically.
That's why Trudeau is stupid for throwing gasoline into the fire!

54% Canadians support lifting restrictions!
No, Justin. This is not a fringe group.
The Facts:
-
A new poll conducted by the Angus Reid Institute shows that the majority (54%) of Canadians now say they want all COVID restrictions to end.
-
This is an increase of 15-points since early January.
-
Multiple countries are now lifting COVID restrictions.
-
Many vaccinated and unvaccinated people are standing together on this.

‘Freedom Convoys’ gaining steam across Europe – reports
Inspired by the Canadian movement, truckers in Europe are planning to import the protest by driving to national capitals before “converging” on Brussels"
Truckers in France are reportedly planning to emulate the Canadian ‘Freedom Convoy’ by mobilizing groups of big rigs to protest vaccine mandates and other Covid-19 restrictions set by Paris. According to a BFM TV report, demonstrators plan to “paralyze” the French capital next week before joining a wider “European convergence” in Brussels.
The outlet reported that a leaflet announcing the ‘Freedom Convoy France’ has been circulated on social media networks, calling on “citizens” to “recover their freedom, their fundamental rights, unconditional access to care, education, and culture, respect for the essential values of our Constitution.” It also noted that the truckers in “Canada [had] paved the way for us.”
After final preparations on Monday and Tuesday, the convoy will set off in three waves from across France – with those furthest from Paris setting off on Wednesday, according to an itinerary on the leaflet. All three waves are expected to reach the national capital Friday evening. On Sunday, the convoy is slated to leave and “join our European friends” in Brussels.
The BFM TV report noted that a Facebook group, called ‘Le convoi de la liberte’, had been created on January 26 and reached nearly 197,000 members. The outlet said the convoy may reinvigorate protests against vaccination passes, which have apparently been flagging in recent weeks.
In addition, the report pointed to a ‘World Freedom Convoy’ group that has been set up on Telegram. This is thought to include demonstrators from Germany, Italy, and Croatia, among others. The Bruzz news outlet in Belgium reported on Thursday that some 40,000 people had joined the group within the past week – with the focus on free speech and the right to make one’s own health choices.

Lol! Why shouldn't they be inspired - it works!

You know, the convoy has given people hope all over the world. They kind of wiped Covid updates off the front page altogether.

I have great deal of sympathy for them and am surprised by how generally they are hated and despised by everyone I talk to. They really seem to be losing the public relations war to JT in a big way.

Of course, who are the likely people you talk to? People like you! ?
They may be loosing the pr to JT - thanks to smearing and demonization we see on media- but apparently, they've become an inspiration to other nations who are now planning their own convoys!

Why aren't we sending weapons to Ukraine?
The significance of Russia's aggression can be likened to the sweep of Hitler's Germany over Europe.

Some Russian TOE is pretty darn impressive. Their rocket artillery for example. They really like rockets. Where they lack is the usual...traditional...Russian area of command control. That is, NCOs don't call artillery for the most part. It's a top down affair. Command has decided that the attack will follow a massive barrage...etc.
-
yes Russia does have an impressive TOE . It is and it keeps getting better, light years ahead of our stocks, but then again a lot of 3 rd world nations have better equipment than we do...They are very ridged with their plans, same as their use of aircraft no room for imagination or taking advantage of an enemies misfortune , if it is not in the plan it does not happen.

There are complex reasons for it involving the sheer number of troops that can be fielded as well as things like language difficulties. Less that Russia doesn't trust NCOs. It's just easier.
I recall in the last blast 'em up, these two were using mass batteries of Grads to play shoot and scoot. Fire a huge volley then run...try to catch the other guy off guard. These would be what activists call 'toy rockets' over Israel way...

Supreme Court blocks Biden Covid vaccine mandate for businesses, allows health-care worker rule

What do we have here? Second-class citizenship? Trudeau blasts the unvaccinated, and there's suggestions that vaccines might be mandated..............and yet, if you are an essential worker - especially a part of the supply chain - you're not required to have a vaccine!
Lol - see the farce in all of this!

@BubberMiley Many vaccinated folks support the right of the unvaccinated! I'm one of them.
-
That's not true. You antivaxxers are not supported much at all. The polls show it.
-
The best poll was the election, when Trudeau lost the popular vote.
-
Why blame the unvaccinated alone, if vaccinated peope still end up in the hospital?

Everybody eventually dies. You unvaxxed are dying at 6x the rate of vaxxed people. That's a fact.

@BubberMileyof course it matters. You may not be suffering but you're still...............SPREADING!
Duh.
To stop the spread - isn't that supposed to be the alleged reason why everyone must be vaccinated? Duh.
-
That was before. It's too late now because antivaxxers thought the elderly and sick are contemptible and should be sacrificed.

Bloomberg article mocked for suggesting Americans spend their paycheck immediately to cope with inflation
"In a high-inflation economy, money that sits in the bank is losing value. Each day, those $100 on deposit buy a little bit less. As a result, many Argentines spend their paychecks as soon as they receive them, carting away weeks’ worth of groceries in a single shopping trip, even if some of it -- excess meat, chicken, fish -- will sit in the freezer for months," Gillespie and Doll wrote.
They added "And don’t hesitate to borrow money to finance some of those big purchases. If you can get a loan at a rate below inflation -- something that’s possible for many Americans today -- go for it. Inflation will make it easier to repay the loan in coming months and years."

$10. a day daycare will put thousands of private home daycares out of business. I suppose the Feds are banking that these home daycares would be forced to sign up and become the working cows of licensed agencies if they still want an income.
I'm saying.........THEY SHOULD ALSO BE UNIONIZED! Get the same pay/benefits regular daycare workers get.

The hostility you lib supporters have for the middle class is abhorrent. It’s $10 dollars more per fill up. Hundreds of dollars more per year. Not to mention the increases in costs of food, and people kind of need food every day. And wages might grow faster if you didn’t keep increasing the supply of labour, but massive immigration is a religion to you lib supporters. You create these problems with your shitty policies, and then blame everyone and everything else, while offering bandaid solutions. It’s pathetic.
-
Home daycares have been following laws. Like all other things, there are some bad apples - like as if there hadn't been anything bad happening in public daycares!
Imagine how many self-employed people will be out of business! When you add the math, these folks aren't getting anywhere as much as what we taxpayers pay for public daycares!
Lol - and look what's looming in Quebec! Another strike from daycare workers!
-
Quebec has Home Daycares. So I'm not sure why you're fearmongering on this.
It would be awful if the deal means that Home Daycares can't apply for the subsidy. But there's no evidence that will be the case.
