RCMP: ‘No officers have been assaulted by blockaders’
The Western Standard (westerstandardonline.com) ^ | February 2, 2022 | Melanie Risdon

Kenney made the accusation of the assaults and “swarming” incidents during a press conference Tuesday afternoon.

RCMP is disputing claims made by Premier Jason Kenney that their officers have been assaulted by truckers blockading the Coutts border crossing in southern Alberta.

“I am not aware of any assault on any of our officers,” RCMP Cpl. Curtis Peters told the Western Standard.

Kenney made the accusation of the assaults and “swarming” incidents during a press conference Tuesday afternoon.

The Western Standard has reached out to Kenney’s office for an explanation of the discrepancy between the two stories but hasn’t heard anything back.

“This is a serious situation,” Kenney said at a press conference, describing incidents of RCMP being “swarmed” by protesters.

He said one RCMP vehicle was rammed which caused another accident.

Kenney said he was “disappointed that a small number had broken the law.

“This is totally unacceptable. I am calling for calm.”

Alberta Premier Oberführer 'Justin' Kenney 'calling for calm', and the reaction from the Justin True-dolt funded Canadian MSM and pols who were onside with this massive CCP-Coronavirus fraud. </sarc>

Reality is, Kenney lied (about the CCP-Coronavirus and the CONdemic) and people died.

According to the article, 10,000 trucks joined the convoy to Coutts but less than 100 remain. Other articles from the Western Standard suggest that the Mounties were trying to impound, and get tow trucks to tow away the trucks. No operators in Southern Alberta are prepared to assist Oberführer Kenney in his quest.

What the leftists have done in response to covid is normal for them and no surprise. What some “conservatives” have done is a surprise however.

Way to go propagandizing with words right out of the communists' mouths.

Shame.

I’m sure he was. He was probably hoping for a large number so he could justify using force and clamping down on it turthlessly.

The truckers were torturing the cops with slightly stale sandwiches and not very hot coffee.

They are taking their inspiration from dems claiming “insurrection”.
The discrepancy comes from the press and politicians telling lies.

Maybe, if little Justin T. ever comes home, he can get in touch with “Karen” Pelosi and have her whip him up a 1 February “commission” to double check that no Mounties were actually injured or killed during the Rubber Duck Convoy.
