If you believe they have gone down the right road I am sure you all will be vindicated in the next election. I personally believe the vast majority of Canadians are not happy at what they are seeing and will not allow the government to be hijacked.

Yeah but they get called out called out by the opposition for that.

They need to explain why they attended or supported such a racist event lol.

Now the freedom fighters are throwing rocks at ambulances and throwing around Asian slurs. Nothing says supporting my rights like abusing paramedics.

Do yourself a favour tune that crap out, even in a city of 100 000 people the crime incidences that go on daily supersedes anything that happened in Ottawa exponentially. How do you even know they were protestors for sure, anybody that throws rocks at ambulances ain't right but who in their right mind would drive all the way to Ottawa to risk being locked up in the hoosegow for something so petty never mind leaving their truck unattended while your in there.

The blame lies with all parties but Justin and his school of Klaus Schuab's Davos alumni cabinet are at the forefront as they are the party in power and are responsible for going along with the Agenda set out in Klaus's book Covid 19 and the Great Reset. I don't think anybody should escape accountability for this including the federal opposition they've all ignored their pledges, oaths, fiduciary duties etc. I was just following orders, I was just doing my job, I was just following the the health officer shouldn't cut it. we all have a moral responsibility to do what is right even if it means not complying with tyrannical laws and mandates just as we all agreed to suspend our rights for two weeks to flatten the curve as we sit here damn near going on three years.

Well you probably know by now I am a law and order guy and a snap shot of my family should interest you. My oldest daughter working in Edmonton in health care is not vaccinated, even although she has lost jobs over this and will be losing a good contract in another month.
My second oldest daughter is not vaccinated, her husband is not and neither are my three grandchildren.
My youngest son reluctantly got vaccinated or he would have lost his job with the City of Toronto.
My wife who got covid and nearly died from it and a had a devastating incident because of covid and depression is not vaccinated.

I got vaccinated because I though it was the right thing to do for my fellow countryfolks.

So in my family we do not fight about it, its a individual choice we so far have made and there has been consequences for all involved.

The politicians who have either vocally supported the protesters have made their choices and will reap the reward or punishment in the next election cycle.

To be clear, I don’t think any Canadian likes the mandates. We follow them for the health and safety of our fellow Canadians. I don’t think anyone is pro mandate. It was a measure used by all governments and some private entities, in good will, to help prevent more deaths and suffering. Changes are made as the situation changes.

I agree with you, I don't know how many times I have cursed and sworn about leaving that bloody mask in my vehicle and having to go back for it.

Well that sounds like a great and respectful family, what more could you ask for from your family it's too bad government hasn't viewed it's own governance that way.

The sad thing about that is your probably right about that meanwhile they sat silent for two years and now all of a sudden they're ready to saddle up on the gravy train to victory riding on the coat tails of truckers. Funny how that works.

So we should ignore this crime because other crime happens? Really, that's the big idea you're pushing?

If you're only going to rely on things you witness first hand then you have no more basis to say it was not protesters than I do to say it was protesters.

100% percent agreed on this point.

Despite of all "opinions" how this protest is Nazi's and whoever else. Its very loud, yet peaceful so far. Compared to what it could have turned into.

In general, I think both majority of the protestors and local police is playing it very smart on the de-escalation of potential clashes.

Unfortunately, there will always be bad apples in any large gathering - that's unavoidable, as long as folks understand that single incidents don't represent the majority..

Oh they're out there, especially here in the Kawartha lakes and it's conservative at the provincial and federal level. I just found this poll. https://tnc.news/2022/01/31/poll-sho...ctions-to-end/
