ExFlyer Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 (edited) 9 hours ago, Goddess said: The following correspondence between the Trucker convoy and Mayor Watson shows the level of cooperation that was happening between the convoy and authorities. The agreement was reached and made public February 13 to deescalate pressure on Ottawa residents. Trucks were moving pursuant to the agreement with Mayor Watson. Yeah but....they did not comply with the mayors requests and hence, faced the wrath of authority. While Lich's response was also a letter of intent, it was as much political pandering as the Mayors letter. In the end, nothing happened from the protesters side. Very few, if any, vehicles moved, certainly not to the limits the Mayor asked for. Only when the EMA was enacted and police presence increased and the protesters understood they were serious and what was going to happen did they move, and many at that time did. In Ottawa, both tv networks were walking around filming live as the events unfolded. The abuse that the reporters and cameramen were taking was an embarrassment for the protesters. Live filming as opposed to random facebook snippets. But hey, this is all old stale news and mostly forgotten except for the few that cannot get past their excitement of the 15 minutes of fame (and their groupies). "On the night before Justin Trudeau took the historic step of invoking the Emergencies Act during last February's Freedom Convoy occupation of Ottawa, the prime minister's national security and intelligence adviser told cabinet there was "potential for a breakthrough," court documents reveal." "...referring to negotiations led "principally" by the City of Ottawa that were "ultimately unsuccessful" after being "disavowed" by many associated with the convoy." https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/canada/cabinet-told-of-possible-breakthrough-with-protesters-night-before-emergencies-act-was-invoked/ar-AA10zHwE?ocid=EMMX&cvid=c14be5b3a85c4bd198fa1ea8c400faa9 Gotta bring this up again because you are being forgotten?

Zeitgeist Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 (edited) Why do you defend and justify clear totalitarian government behaviour? The protest was being de-escalated without the EA. The Act was a proud assertion of power that trounced constitutional rights. It was part of a continuing pattern of arbitrary draconian behaviour from the government. We watched closely. The overreach continues with the maintenance of ArriveCAN, a slap in the face to Canadian border town businesses. The Americans know our government is up to no good. The signs are everywhere in Buffalo: “Entering Canada Requires ArriveCan.” Don’t own a cell phone? Too elderly or unable to operate technology?, Don’t try to enter Canada. That includes Canadians. Our government is ridiculous. It oppresses people unnecessarily through over the top mandates and made protesting them illegal, including the freezing of bank accounts, doxxing of people, Trudeau’s public humiliation of protesters as “racist”, “misogynist” with “unacceptable views”. Trudeau asked the Hitlerian question, “Do we make a space for these people?” We saw the beatings behind the scenes and the intimidation of businesses that tried to stay open by police who were ordered to shut them down and remove people. Ottawa looked like Warsaw after a crackdown against lhe protesters of communist dictatorship. We saw what happened and the continued attempts to whitewash government actions.

I dispel the falsehoods, innuendo and partisanship perpetuated by some folks here. The mayor attempted to de-escalate but, as the article I linked and as I witnessed, that did not happen, regardless of the letter from Lich. A person posted letters and I dispelled the assumptions they made as I was here, in Ottawa, when this all occurred.. Our government is ridiculous, according to you and a few other dissidents here on this forum but, believe it or not, you are not the majority in Canada. Every government in every country in the world has dissenters and people that disagree with the ruling party. That is democracy. The way to change it is to vote them out by the majority of the population. 3 times Trudeau has won, like it or not. (personally I believe he won because of the failure of Scheer and O'Foole and who knows who is next) Comparing any government to Hitler is a last resort of losers. Cannot provide evidence of actual law breaking and wrong doing so therefor resorting calling out for Hitler (as oppose to Pol Pot, Idi Amin, Saddam Hussein, Qaddafi r even Mussolini). I also linked an article written today. Like it or not, they do not see it your (and a few others here) way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What American pundits think of Canadian politics (or politics anywhere else in the world) is not only immaterial, it has no validity and is worthless. Quoting them is, once again. reaching far out. Point here is that so many here are living and believing innuendo, rumours, hearsay, feelings, emotion and when pressed for actual facts, chapter and verse, all the responses come back crickets. I think Trudeau is an ass. I think he believes he has power when in fact it is the NDP that give it to him (this time). First tome the conservatives gave it to him, second time the conservative failures gave him the PMship too and same with this time but, NDP hold the cards. I think conservatives are losers because they keep electing fools and idiots as leaders. Regardless what many may think, personality plays a big part in being a leader and hate to say this but, Trudeau and his personality win over the past 3 conservative leaders.

I can't imagine they're enjoying having their pastors arrested and churches burned down. In my BC city, the churches had to have 24/7 security for months. The burning seems to died down for the moment. But the persecution still remains. If it was ANY other faith, there'd be media outrage. But it's Christianity...so...the media supports the persecution.
