  1. The vaccinated are now majority in hospitalizations. That's what it says in the news yesterday. Furthermore, boosters are worth squat. Trudeau is the poster boy for that. He had a booster. And if his kids have had it too, well - one of his kids had covid. I think the leaders have used covid as a "trial run" and, for grooming people to be receptive to mandates. CLIMATE CHANGE MANDATES would be the next one. Both are based on.......FEAR.
  2. She's more likely to endorse Poilievre. Probably that's why she opted to be the House leader instead - she'll be the next one in waiting. She'll most likely be the first elected female Prime Minister. For a while there, I thought it would be Freeland - but she's been tarnished by Trudeau. And, she proved to be just another politician good with talking points. I lke Poilievre. Furthermore, known as "Harper's Pitbull," he's been honed to deal with the other parties in talk shows and the press.
  3. Don't forget the coming............................................CLIMATE CHANGE MANDATES! Lest anyone doesn't have a clue what mandates entail all the fear-mongering on this supposed mother of all end times! "TIME IS RUNNING OUT!" they say. Yeah, right. Meanwhile, they've now been sending space flights like there is no tomorrow! They're even talking about SPACE TOURISM! And, who's going to be mandated for the carbons? The common people. This freedom convoy isn't just about covid - in my view. Let this worldwide convoy nip all these deluge of upcoming socialistic mandates in the bud!
  4. Trudeau is the most divisive Prime Minister EVER! Who would've thought to divide the vaccinated from the unvaxxed - demonizing the latter - the way he does? The Liberal MP who spoke out against labelling the protesters, is right.
  5. It's not their fault..................... if you've got a bloated sense of entitlement! Hahahaha I thought I'd seen it all! Hahahaha Better burst your balloon. That's not healthy. ? Lol - why should they be forced to get jabbed just to make it more convenient for you? What makes you think they have to sacrifice themselves for you? Hahahahaha

  7. 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.

      This initially wasn't a protest about COVID restrictions. It was a protest about Cross-Border truckers and vaccine mandates. 

      You can support one thing, and not the other. 

  8. ‘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.

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

  10. There is no common sense to how covid is being handled by our leaders.......if it is dangerous as they say it is! Like, why can't they even tell parents in Ontario if there is an outbreak in their school (unless it reaches 30% absences)! heck, what does that mean? You deprive parents of their choice by witholding information, if they want to take the chance for their kindergarten (who really knows squat about safety protocols) to picking covid in school and bringing it home to them! What the leaders are doing is really also hurting our economy big-time, and it's not preventing covid from spreading!
  11. I keep saying before all these - those vaccine passports are only gonna make it worse! They won't protect you! What it does is, give you false sense of security thinking that you're safe from getting it, just because you're in a place that allows only people with vaccine passport! Vaccine passports make you let down your guard!
  12. Lol - you protect yourself! Duh. Like.......you can order online and use pick-up only, among other things! Why should people who don't believe and don't want vaccines in their bodies be the ones to be deprived of their rights......just to make people who don't have any common sense feel "protected?" Anyway..... Did booster shots protect Trudeau? Did vaccines protect his kid from getting it? He is the best poster boy to justify why some people don't believe in vaccines!
  13. I don't think eliminating the vaccine mandate would mean mandating that people cannot exercise their own freedom to protect themselves. As far as I know, if anyone wants to wear a mask - triple layered, if you want - you can do so. If you want to get vaccinated, and get boosters every day - you can still do so. I don't think we are going to be forced to enter crowded buildings, and that public places can no longer limit the capacity they want, if they want to. Heck, you can do whatever you want.................... WITH YOUR OWN BODY! What we can't do is force somebody do something to....................... HIS OWN BODY! Lol, you lefties pro-choice supporters of all people, should know that! ?

      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.

      betsy

      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!

      BubberMiley

      You were so in favour of the vaccines when your blogs had you convinced Trump created them in warp speed. But you don't have to dislike them now that you found out you were lied to and he didn't make them. That's just irrational.

  15. Ukraine Presidents says, don't create panic!  Invasion is not imminent!

    A lot of saber rattling from Biden for optics!  I bet it's due to the polls!

      Might have something do with Russian troops on the border. Don't be a stooge for Putin. It's disloyal to western democracy. 

  16. 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.

    3. Army Guy

      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. 

    4. DogOnPorch

      DogOnPorch

      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...

  19. 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.

    3. BubberMiley

      That's not true. You antivaxxers are not supported much at all. The polls show it.

      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.

    4. BubberMiley

      BubberMiley

      That was before. It's too late now because antivaxxers thought the elderly and sick are contemptible and should be sacrificed. 

  21. Critics Outraged by FDA Request to Hide Pfizer Vaccine Data for 55 Years

    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/critics-outraged-by-fda-request-to-hide-pfizer-vaccine-data-for-55-years/ar-AAQUufd

     

    What's there to hide?  I had Pfiezer - this is making me nervous.

     

  22. Are we getting CERB again?

    Lockdown come January?  I sound like the Grinch, don't I?

    A Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year to all.

  23. For something they want to call "progressive and MOVING FORWARD - they seem to dwell and get so hung up with the past. You can't move forward without stumbling, if you keep looking back every step of the way. It's one way to learn from it - but it's another to keep wearing it like an albatross on your neck, and forcing others to do the same! It's kinda hard to have a reconciliation if we keep pointing and wagging an accusatory fingers collectively at everyone digging up the past. That doesn't help in working out a marriage - it won't work in any relationship you may want to build. Most, if not all people involved in that past are dead! Focus on the present.
  24. It's not about ancestry or whether their lives is better this way than that! Who can judge and decide for a person what a "better" life is? That 18 year old may have died in the mud somewhere in Vietnam, but we don't know if he had welcomed being a soldier - if that's what he had mapped out to start with, and planned to do in the first place. Furthermore, which is better - dying a hero's death at 18, or dying on the streets of LA - pumped up full of drugs at 18? That's irrelevant to this author's reflection., which is in the OP That is YOUR reflection - that's okay. But it does not make the author's own reflection, inaccurate. His reflection stated, and this is all I read from what he said (unless I'm missing some parts of it); • People who have never owned slaves should pay slavery reparations to people who have never been slaves. He is reflecting on a SIMPLE irony. That is accurate! At least, that's what I understand by this call for reparation. WE - who had never owned any slaves - whether we are white or yellow, red or brown - PAY TO BLACKS LIVING TODAY! Lol - what other crazy ideas would they come up based on that precedent? Descendants of rapists, shooters, etc., will pay reparation to descendants of raped victims, shooters, etc? Ala - ME TOO.....but this time, they'll call it......US TOO? ?
