Good morning, Judy!
Did you see my post to you, #3613?
Does this mean anything, can they do anything?
If 5 PM’s don’t go along with Turdeau will this EA be enforced in their provinces?
Prayers up for your friend, Roger.
Praying that the the meds you gave him will bring him through and he will be fine.
Hi Gran....
Sorry, I haven’t been on much and catching up. I did see that the Canadian Civil Liberties group denounced Turdeau’s tyrannical move on Canadians, but I don’t know if this will make any difference. The premiers of the provinces who are also denouncing this will make no difference. They are just going on the record....likely for political gain.
I am wondering if the Civil Liberties group can sue the Turdeau regime and make a difference. Trying to find out this morning.
Thank you and please keep us posted as to what you find out.
Someone has got to stop this mad man!

I like the way you think.
Brian Stelter's head would explode.
Well said.
Lt. Gov. Sears is quite impressive.
Looks like she brought the VA Senate to heel.
Thanks for posting the CCLU’s tweets from last night.
I was looking for them, and saw you had already posted them.
I don’t think this is going to turn out the way Castro Jr. thinks it is going to turn out.
Like I said yesterday, the truckers have the ultimate card to play: park the trucks and go home for awhile.
Good morning, lysie!
I think you hit all the food groups there—especially the BACON!
Many thanks!
Yes, the end of the Book is very comforting.
Brings the hymn “In Times Like These” to mind.
Thx LG.
They sure don’t make it easy for us to watch conservative news. They are all over the place, and not that easy to find.
From this morning’s email from FL lawyer Jeff Childers:

“*COVID NEWS AND COMMENTARY* 🗞
🚛 Apparently everything is an emergency now whenever executives can’t do what they want. Yesterday, in what Politico called the “biggest risk of his political life,” Castro lookalike Justin Trudeau invoked Canada’s Emergencies Act — here we go again! — to deal with the truckers clogging up the capital. Even with Covid, this is the first time in Canada’s history that the Act was used. In other words, the truckers are scarier than the virus, or something.
The Enabling Act, I mean Emergencies Act, gives the Canadian government nearly unlimited powers to quell the protests, shut down crowdfunding and freeze the individual bank accounts of anyone who might be helping the demonstrators. I’m not making that up; it’s for SAFETY. “We cannot and will not allow illegal and dangerous activities to continue,” Trudeau said. Dangerous activities like a parked truck. “The blockades are harming our economy and endangering public safety.” Endangering people by honking.
The Act’s use generated a lot of angry commentary; not everyone is super happy about it. New Democratic Party Leader Jagmeet Singh told reporters “The reason why we got to this point is because the prime minister let the siege in Ottawa go on for weeks and weeks without actually doing anything about it.” The Canadian Civil Liberties Association tweeted “it threatens our democracy and our civil liberties.”
“The prime minister had an opportunity to talk and to listen to people who he disagreed with, and he refused to do so,” Interim Conservative Leader Candice Bergen said. She warned invoking the Emergencies Act was a “ham-fisted approach” that will likely have the opposite effect, and argued Trudeau was escalating and inflaming the situation by using labels to minimize people’s concerns and pandemic anxieties.
Canadian conservatives have called for Trudeau to reconsider the mandates. “The solution is staring him in the face,” Conservative MP Pierre Poilievre said. “All he has to do is listen to the experts, do what other countries are doing — and that is to eliminate these mandates and restrictions — to let the protesters including the truckers go back to their jobs and their lives.”
“I’m proud of the truckers and I stand with them,” Poilievre said in a podcast last week. “If Canadians are being inconvenienced, or in any way suffering from these protests, it is because Justin Trudeau made these protests happen.”
There are some small signs the truckers might be making progress. Trudeau announced the emergency response one hour after Canadian conservatives tried to pass a bill requiring the government to present a plan for ending vaccine mandates by the end of this month; it was narrowly defeated 185-151. The Public Health Agency of Canada issued a statement Monday saying the country is entering a “transition phase” of the pandemic, and saying people should expect new Covid waves and outbreaks as restrictions ease. That seems promising.
The Prime Minister was noncommittal, but left room to make changes to Covid policy. “There will be time later to reflect on all the lessons that can be learned from this situation,” Trudeau told reporters yesterday afternoon.”

I wish Elon Musk would just buy Canada already.
RE: Ltd. Governor. Sears
She brought the VA senate to heel alright. Did you see that shoe? It could be a lethal weapon.

The organizers of the Canadian Freedom Convoy had a message for @JustinTrudeau:
“No matter what you do, we will hold the line. There are no threats that will frighten us—we will hold the line.”

I hope and pray that this doesn’t end well for Turdeau.
From what I can see he isn’t that well liked or respected in Canada with only 16% approval and that was before he pulled this latest stunt.
Does he have the same carven, brain-dead advisors that Bye-done has?
