Trucker's Convoy

Ohio legislature seeks to add Canada to a list of outlier countries that squash religious freedoms.  Wow.  Canadian refugees in Montana and now this.   We’re going to have to seriously bolster the power of our Charter and Constitution.  We need protection of property so places of worship aren’t allowed to be burned down and people’s assets can’t be seized for political reasons.  It’s become crystal clear that Canada lapsed into totalitarianism.  The question is, can we get out of it and ensure it never happens again?

New Mexico and I think one other state in the US have also said they are offering asylum to Canadians.

New Mexico rep to introduce bill offering asylum to Canadian truckers protesting vaccine mandates (yahoo.com)

 

Never thought I would see the day that Canadians were fleeing the country in droves, nor that I would even be considering it myself. ?  There are websites now devoted to assisting Canadians get out of the country.  And still we have ding-a-lings here saying "nothing is wrong here. Everything is great!  Canada is healthier than ever, we're the greatest democracy ever and our institutions are 100% trustworthy!" ?

In light of the fact extreme left-wing socialists and commies have taken over America's government without a single shot being fired in defiance by the most heavily armed population of conservative patriots on the planet - I'd say the answer to your question is probably no.

I'm good with living in a country where churches have to obey the same laws as everyone else.

Freedom George finally got out of jail today.

Praise God

His response to the losers at CBC was the best. No regrets because he got the masks off the kids and gave his daughter a normal grad free from leftist mask lunacy

Everybody liked to say that with respect to Putin's Russia two decades back, with all the foundations for totalitarianism including: unrestricted government, controlled media and courts already in place. Never say never, unless absolutely sure; or at least with some real reasons, not just wishful dreaming.

Only because of likely the largest protest in Canadian history. Leftists threw a hissy fit because they didn't do as they wanted them to do

Routinely see young people in the park in masks, some drawn below nose. This is lasting psychological damage, not to mention social. Some of them will be leaders in the future. Will they ask questions or do as told whatever it is makes a tiniest sense or none whatsoever? Just scary.

I was at Costco the other day and all the employees were wearing masks, all pulled below their noses, frequently pulling the mask down further to speak or breathe, putting them on and off.  What's the point?

When I see this, I get the image of adults sucking on pacifiers.

Lasting psychological damage, indeed.

He spent 3 months in jail because he could not find a lawyer to get him bail. Just like the other clown.

Principals don't buy groceries LOL

Don't you think a judge has a responsibility to say "hey this is ridiculous... why is a guy spending three months in jail for blowing a shofar"?

Liberal justice.. only use the system to punish dissenters of their agenda while doing jack all about actual crime.

Maybe but that is not the point. He was arrested for an offence, as small as it may be and he can get out on bail (like any other person arrested) but this joker cant' find anyone to help him or willing to help him.

Don't make him your martyr, you already have on one that King fool. Even that Lich chick got bail.

This is not a liberal or conservative, or NDP thing, this is a local law thing. He was arrested and charged for breaking a law.

Yes it is... the point is a guy spent three months in jail as a political punishment, not because what he did warranted jail time.

No one ever said he warranted jail time. The guy is nothing but a f'N idiot and no one would help him. Period.

Many got charged and they are all walking free except for couple fools.

Nothing political, all idiotic by the ones still sitting in jail.

What We Learned From Hating the Unvaccinated | by Susan Dunham | Apr, 2022 | Medium

 

Quote

 

It was a quick slide from righteousness to cruelty, and however much we might blame our leaders for the push, we’re accountable for stepping into the trap despite better judgement.

We knew that waning immunity put vast numbers of the fully vaccinated on par with the shrinking minority of unvaccinated, yet we marked them for special persecution. We said they hadn’t “done the right thing” by turning their bodies over to state care — even though we knew that principled opposition to such a thing is priceless in any circumstance. And we truly let ourselves believe that going into another ineffectual lockdown would be their fault, not the fault of toxic policy.

It seems right now like the mandates will return, but this time there’s hope that more of us will see them for what they are: a rising authoritarianism that has no concern for our wellbeing. If there’s an enemy, it’s the confidence game of state power and the transparent attempt to tear us apart. Heeding that looks like our best shot at redemption.

The "moral high ground" is disappearing fast and being exposed for what it has been all along - cruelty disguised as altruism.

 

The Vaccine Passport is No Longer about Safety, But It Pretends To Be | by Susan Dunham | May, 2022 | Medium

 

Quote

 

the sober truth is that the passports only screen for two doses, which are widely accepted not to provide any meaningful level of safety, three-to-six months post injection.

And with the boosters still targetting the original Alpha strain, even an expanded three-dose definition of fully-vaccinated would not guarantee a level of safety that is competitive with widespread natural Omicron immunity.

If there is any safety benefit left to wring from the passport system, it’s not worth the squeeze.

And so the continued demand for passport protection indicates either an ignorance of the science or something much more troubling.

It could be that the trauma of the pandemic has left some of us not only still clinging to our safety blanket, but using it to suffocate others.

Indeed, COVID has created an appetite for punishing “bad citizens” — and the vax pass is proving already to live up to what it was feared to become: an early social credit system, designed to reward those who “did the right thing,” and hurt the ones who didn’t.

It's nothing to do with your health just like leftists shadow boxing on "conversion therapy" (whatever the hell that is). 

These people are seriously ill and shouldn't be near power.

Wasn't the vote on conversion therapy practicality unanimous?

You appear to enjoy calling things that you don't personally like 'leftist'.

I dont even think it's a thing. What they call "conversion therapy" is kinda broad. Is having a conversation with somebody with unwanted sexual attractions "conversion therapy"? 

Seems like just another way to target folks you dislike which is exactly what it's turning in to. Right now lunatics in Saskatoon are claiming (with very little actual evidence aside from feelings) that Christian schools are doing "conversion therapy" (whatever that is).

Well there’s two ways to manage this.  Either we say that the state must not play such an overbearing role deciding what is moral and appropriate, interfering with parenting, or we say, okay, if the state thinks it has the answer on morality above parents, what is that morality?   We could have an all out culture war of the traditionalists (promoting male and female role models where possible, recognizing the biological reality of two genders as central markers of gender identity, XY and XX, requiring educators to leave talk of sexuality out of primary education, encourage values-based education based on ancient wisdom like the “virtues”, etc.) versus those who want to scrap all canonical western cultural beliefs (ancient wisdom texts, religion, science-based gender, two-parent and two-gender families, parental discretion over child-rearing, etc.).

If we want the state to dictate upbringing, we can have an all out culture war between the woke revolutionaries (all identity is a social construct, the family structure is sexist, country must be scrapped due to patriarchy and colonialism, money must be redistributed from earners based on designated identities, etc.) and those who believe in human agency/free will, that there is value in ancient wisdom, that gender isn’t entirely a social construct but has important roots in biology, that parents matter and individual beliefs matter, there is much to celebrate about history and culture, including the so-called “dominant” culture, etc.   

I think we’re entering a time where the lunatics can no longer be trusted to run the asylum.  Biden and Trudeau are letting the radicals have at it because they’re so scared of asserting anything that might be construed as patriarchal or colonial.  Of course inflation is teaching most people that morality matters and we reap what we sow.  Overspending creates moral hazard.  Erasing people’s individual rights and views is the hallmark of dictatorship and the loss of free speech.  Our mainstream media is clearly too beholden to government through state funding and attempts at censorship.  Canadians have been made to feel through the pandemic that many basic human rights are expendable for dubious reasons of so-called safety.  Drug use, addiction, depression, anxiety, and suicide have increased.  People are paying punishing prices for basic necessities and carbon taxes on fuel that has doubled in price in a year.

The woke-green ideological experiments of an overbearing government aren’t working.
