ExFlyer Posted December 1, 2022 Report Posted December 1, 2022 25 minutes ago, WestCanMan said: Officially, yes, but the Senate was in the process of voting to revoke it themselves. He just stepped in to save face because he didn't want it to go down in the books as "squashed by the Senate". Some things needed to be stalled. It was a joke the way things went down. Our government's complete control over "whether or not we have access to our own money" is way beyond acceptable. Officially is the way it went down. Trudeau revoked it. I disagree. There are things and times when action must be taken. Stalling could make things worse. Far too often consensus is not reached and things do not get done. Like being a parent where one does or says something without consulting the spouse. Our government control is as it has always been. Majority rules. Be it conservative or liberal governments.

Dougie93 Posted December 1, 2022 Report Posted December 1, 2022 (edited) Danielle Kubes: The Liberals, not the Freedom Convoy, are who made this a 'banana republic' So the truth is finally out: the Liberals were pressured by some of the CEOs of Canada’s big five banks to stop the Freedom Convoy. "That the Liberals chose to use an unprecedented state power instead of, let’s say, talking with the protesters, or rolling back vaccine mandates (that have completely disappeared anyway) is a prime example of how they disregard the rights and freedoms of Canadian citizens. What the Liberals failed to realize, and continue to fail to realize, is that they are the ones who created the conditions for the Freedom Convoy to thrive, with their support for draconian COVID measures, which, along with Italy and Australia, were among the strictest or longest in the developed world. A country of loyalists and royalists, we never fought for our freedom from the Crown and it shows. To our credit, we are generally more concerned with order and stability. But even we, or at least some of us, have our breaking point" https://nationalpost.com/opinion/liberals-more-concerned-about-the-whims-of-bank-ceos-than-their-own-people Edited December 1, 2022 by Dougie93 1 Quote

You’re such an uncritical apologist for the government. I stand by my opinion that you’re not who you claim to be. Use of the EA was a failure of leadership. Much could’ve been done to de-escalate the situation and resolve the tensions with a fair and reasonable plan to remove the mandates and other measures which should’ve been communicated as extraordinarily and temporary. Many vaccinated people thought that they were unnecessary. More than half the country didn’t vote Liberal or NDP, yet half the country was essentially ignored and treated as lesser beings.

I cannot believe you think I am apologizing when all I am doing is stating fact. Your post is about way more than what I said or even care about. I only said Trudeau invoked and Trudeau revoked the EMA. No more, no less. All the other stuff you and some others are posting to me is extraneous and only touting your own position. Here it is again, like it or not, Trudeau invoked and Trudeau revoked the EMA. It is what it was, all is history now.
