You should be made aware that all the major news outlets, the many on the left and the very few on the right have huge research teams scouring (cherry picking) stuff from other sources so they can spin it for their audience.

CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC , NBC, PBS, CBC, CTV, Global .

It speaks volumes about how bad the mainstream media is when there are more independent media sources that can do a much better job with a fraction of the resources.

I've never heard of this network before and you're right, she is badass! I wish she was on CTV, CBC or Global.

There is a woman in a red coat with a walker on the ground as well as another person. I don't see any bicycle in this particular photo. This is yet another perfect example of why so many people don't trust the media, the same story covered but it's reported in an almost polar opposite way by leftist and conservative news sources.

It's fairly certain that if these axe wielding attackers are found, they won't face serious time in jail for their actions. Think about that..axes! I haven't heard about any truckers using axes but they are being dealt with more harshly.

I think it's fair to say the burka is the most notable example of that and in that case it's not me that decides that they wear it or not . It's the husbands. Just saying. And more to the point, you said anti vax. Most of the truckers and their supporters have been vaxxed, it's the mandates. Being anti vax mandate is different. Some of the provinces might soon be lifting proof of vax requirements. The trucker protest has affected many others in the vicinity negatively with regards to quality of life. But so have the covid restrictions for the past two years or so. Covid is a problem but it's not the bubonic plague either. And covid restrictions were never really meant to apply to politicians, we all know that.

Listening to Michael Knowles yesterday and he raised a very important point. The Dems are very low in the polls at this time largely because they've gone Bernie Sanders crazy with their policies and of course those policies do not work. But for all that, Knowles pointed out that the Dems have one huge ace up their sleeve in that they have control over virtually every single government institution in the country. Education, FBI, CIA , DOJ and the list goes on and on. History has shown that they will not hesitate to weaponize any agency against the Republicans. Hillary truly has nine lives plus. She just will not go away and now the rumours of her running again in 2024. This is the best of the best for the Democrats?

The Occupy movement in Canada lasted about a month or more. They were eventually removed by the police but they did not have bank accounts frozen or their funders doxed and threatened as far as I am aware. Don't get me wrong, I'm not crazy about streets being blocked or loud noise all night. If I lived downtown it would drive me crazy too. These truckers did not have it easy during the pandemic. They kept working through thick and thin, they did not sit on their asses collecting CERB. Trudeau meets with real dictators and even admires them. It wouldn't have been the end of the world if he met with the truckers in the beginning. One of Trudeau's issues is that he does not like to listen, he likes to dictate. If all protests in Canada were treated with an even hand by government it would be a different thing, but they are not.

I'm quite certain that if it were BLM or any other radical environmentalist group doing the same things, namely blocking streets and making noise all night long the Liberal reaction would be very different. Trudeau would meet with them, he would take a knee, he would take selfies. He would NOT take heavy handed actions like confiscation of funds, taking away children. He would NOT go after the people that funded the protests and dox them. Even Antifa does not get treated this way in Canada. Antifa is a terrorist group without question.

You say racism is real and pervasive and systemic. Can you provide specific examples? Your link isn't an example of racism either. If you read it carefully it says the families have the CHOICE to opt out of black history month lessons. What's wrong with having the benefit of choice? I am seeing black history month promoted everywhere and I want to have the choice to watch it or not. I choose not.

Thankfully for Canadians Antifa and BLM haven't been anywhere near as violent here as they have been in the US which is where those radical organizations are based. I don't know about the extent of funding to Antifa but BLM has been given an enormous amount of donations from major corporations to small individual donors. I'm not aware of any government going after all those that have donated to BLM. The trucker protest is not terrorist activity. It's not what they are doing, it's more so who are the one's doing it. Conservative slanted protests are extremely rare compared to what the left does on a regular basis.

I think the difference is that those donating to the trucker protest face a very real danger of being doxxed or even losing their jobs because of it. Anyone that donates to Antifa , BLM or any kind of radical protests typical of leftists face no risk in doing so.

It's becoming very risky to donate to the truckers protest.

It's crazy how this protest get's covered by the different news sources. All the leftist news(majority) covers the truckers in the most negative way possible. FOX and some of the more realistic news sources are showing something totally different, it truly is mostly peaceful.

I don't like the truckers blocking roads or borders or honking horns all day but not every one of them are involved in that. I think governments have much more tolerance for pipeline protests and every kind of environmental protest. If it's a protest by "people of colour" they have a lot of leeway to do what they want.

Perhaps you can answer some of the questions that Ben Shapiro asked, but didn't get an answer to in this debate. The reaction to his questions at the beginning are appalling .

I'm not really into hero worship although there are some public figures I admire. As for Al Sharpton, I first heard about him during the Tawana Brawley hoax in which he played a role. In my opinion the guy is just a race hustler and a very successful one at that. Sharpton is no civil rights activist, but is a race-baiter | Our Opinion | bgdailynews.com Thirty Years Ago Today Al Sharpton Incited Crown Heights Pogrom - The Lid (lidblog.com) At every opportunity he fans the flames of racism where there may be none. This is what he lives for. Why on earth is this man revered so much within the Democratic party? Al Sharpton’s Long Bill of Goods, From Tawana Brawley to Primetime (thedailybeast.com)

It's just like the Democrats in that the Liberals are flooding the country with new voters that are overwhelmingly going to vote Liberal. Good for the Liberals, not good for hard working Canadians.

What the Clinton campaign did stinks to high heaven but I'll bet my last dollar that even if it comes out that Hillary herself instigated and orchestrated the whole thing she will face no legal repercussions whatsoever.

Sorry, everything you just said is utter nonsense. But what really caught my attention was you mentioning Al Sharpton. Can you tell us what you think is great about that man?
