You can also put them on ignore, if you know how to do that.

Float the mouse over their picture, so that the pop-up window appears. Click IGnore, etc.

Nice...   ;)

Thanks! I did just that.  I am sure this guy needs to go to a mental institution. No doubt he's had a very rough childhood.

No problem, glad it helps.

That’s why,

We right wingers like to take charge, figure how to solve our problems by ourselves. ;) 

Not the nanny-state.

I used to get all my news from CBC & CTV

there was always some bias, CBC to the left, CTV to the right

but I wouldn't have called it propaganda

at this point however, I wouldn't watch these ridiculous shills if you paid me to

the only MSM I watch is Fox News

which is funny, because I never watched them before

back in the day, I was rather biased against Fox News

but if I want to see what Glenn Greenwald has to say, I have to go to Tucker Carlson

if I wanted a media report on the truckers which was accurate, I had to go Sean Hannity

I was weaned on the CBC like mother's milk

the National was the gold stantard

now the CBC is bizarro world, surreal

it reminds me of rhe Soviet news agency TASS

It apparently is one reporters take on things. Cannot say any more about it.

Fox News is what I consider fringe now. As long as they still keep preaching Trumps virtues, they are too much fringe for me.

74 million people voted for Trump

so if that is the fringe, then all of Canada is way on the fringe

Yeah but, he lost, almost 2 years ago and his containing antics, supported by Fox has turned my stomach. I call Fox the Trump network.

I find that Fox is the most Trump biased and Trump singular news ever.

In Canada, Trudeau won and O'Foole accepted the loss, not inciting riot and continually whining.

In the US they call district manipulation to give certain parties more votes "gerrymandering". We do the same thing. Almost every winning party manipulates the ridings to their benefit for future elections.

There is more discussion about Trump on CNN than Fox it seems. The web site for sure. They cannot let it go because Trump is not out of the picture yet. 

He “threatens” to return, which has liberals completely mortified.

Like when the bogey man came out of closet last night. :o

Will he come out again, tonight?

;)

I just look at the constitutional particulars

Section 1 of the Charter being invoked to negate all your other rights after

the Emergencies Act being invoked to crush protests with martial law and seize property without court order

there's really nothing the media can say to alter my view of those facts

bear in mind

I took the vaccine in good faith

I was not opposed to vaccine mandates per se

can a private business demand that you be vaccinated for a job ?

I would say yes

can the school system demand that your children be vaccinated to attend school ?

I would say yes

I was not that interested in the Freedom Convoy at first, as a vaccine mandate protest

I would not actually protest the vaccine mandates

it was only when the protests themselves were declared to be "illegal" that I started to protest

there is no such thing as an "illegal protest" in a free & democratic society

What constitutional particulars? I keep asking and no one can provide any constitutional breaches. A lot of opinion but no actual evidence.

The people arrested and fined were done so under existing laws.

Property seizure? What and when? If you are talking about towing vehicles, there were towed for breaking existing laws and by laws. I will admit, the issuance of the Emergency Measures Act did empower authorities but in the end, none of those powers were needed.

Oh, and you may wish to call it martial law but, t was not. martial law is something completely different.

it's not about breaches, I simply find the Charter to be so weak that it doesn't actually protect our rights in the end

I believe that protesters have the right to impede the government, to bring it to a stand still

if not, there would be no Civil Rights Act

if not, South Africa would still be ruled by Apartheid

the whole point of protests is to bring things to a halt

otherwise, they have no effect

the idea that the only thing you're allowed to do is wave a placard

where and when the government allows you to ?

that is not a free country, that is an authoritarian state like Russia or China

Just informing that there will be a TV report. Don't like it? Don't believe it? Don't care? Then don't watch. Certainly would not want anyone to watch or hear something that goes against their own narrative or beliefs.

There is little or no discussion about Trump on CNN unless he makes public statements. Admittedly which is quite often as he just cannot stop speaking about himself LOL

I think the Republicans are becoming more and more concerned about his potential return. More and more of congress and the senate is worried as he has been attacking and demeaning anyone not agreeing with him. even his rallys are gathering few people.

I am not sure how the US system works but I think Trump is still the Republican leader and I do not know how they will either keep him or dump him. I think they will wait till mid term elections are over.

it's clear that Trump is at least the kingmaker in the GOP

it's very plausible that a Ron DeSantis could outflank him in a primary

but in the meantime, no GOP candidate is able to win without Trump's endorsement

more importantly for Canada tho

I would assert that it is a very desperate & reckless strategy

for the Government of Canada to choose sides in the American conflict

making themselves proxies for the Democrats

declaring the Republicans to be enemies of Canada

that is a very dangerous place for Canada to be

the Republicans can do massive damage to Canada, with a flick of their wrists

like Meng Wanzhou, the Republicans did that

or the 300% duty on Bombardier

that's just a little taste of how this could go

the GOP views Canada as a competitor dumping in the US market

the GOP views Canada as being a fifth column for China

Canada cannot afford to make an enemy of the GOP

and I don't think DeSantis is a soft touch

DeSantis will probably be much more ruthless & effective than Trump

because is DeSantis is going to replace Trump

he would have to be, to prove his bona fides to the base

the Liberals are setting Canada up to be a whipping boy the GOP would make an example of

they can also easily create a situation which would incite the Chinese to start whipping too

Canada could end up caught in no man's land between both America & China

No no, perhaps you dont read too goodly. Im interested in the legal arguments. What you are peddling is one man’s opinion. You said so, yourself.

So that is your narrative and belief.

I’m sorry if I don’t want to absorb your brainwashing...
