British Activist Tommy Robinson Arrested in Canada by Undercover Police After Delivering a Powerful Speech on Censorship and Government Overreach
Gateway Pundit ^

British journalist and renowned free speech activist Tommy Robinson was arrested in Calgary, Canada, shortly after delivering a powerful speech that criticized censorship and government overreach.

(snip)

His speech, which received a standing ovation from the audience, was abruptly followed by his arrest. Ten police officers, including both uniformed and undercover personnel, swarmed Robinson after he exited the venue, placed him in an SUV, and drove him away.

(snip)

Levant continued, expressing confusion and concern about the sudden arrest. “We asked what the charge was. We asked where he was being taken to. The police refused to give us answers.”

Levant speculated that the arrest might be related to an immigration warrant.

Well, if not an immigration warrant, jay walking would do.

Soyboy Castro's and Nazi Freeland's (talk about false advertising) Canada.

Fairly certain, given how 'they' operate, the timing of the arrest was done on purpose, assuming there is a warrant as Levant speculated. It underlined the point Robinson's speech.

Free speech is not allowed in Canada. Hurt the government’s feelings and you are in big trouble.

Found out a while back that you need a passport now to visit our neighbors to the north.

This is just one more reason not to bother getting a new one.

Note to Canadians: Want your country back?

SECURE YOUR DAMNED ELECTIONS.

From 2022...

Canada could be a leader in standards for election technologies Online voting is increasingly popular, but regulating it has been controversial. Canada is moving toward standards that could become a model.

From 2023...

Elections Nova Scotia signs contract for electronic voting system Scytl Canada will develop the platform to allow out-of-province military members to vote

Western countries all doing the same thing.

Not a coinkydink.

Eventually to be seen in the United States as well. Your crime? Spreading “disinformation”. I wish I were kidding, but I’m not.

As a first step, back in 2022 Biden formed a “Disinformation Governance Board”. The board was disbanded because of all the criticism against it. But you can bet they’ll try again.

Oh, get a load of this...

Universal Voter Registration: The Canadian Model

Generally speaking, Canada has a system of universal voter registration. The Canadian government has largely taken on the onus of registering its citizens to vote as a means of protecting their constitutional right...

🤣🤣🤣🤣

"back in 2022 Biden formed."

The only thing Biden can form is those little brown logs in the back of his shorts.. It's Obama that's driving this train to hell. :(

So he’s out of custody. He’s not allowed to leave Alberta.

Of course this was all about stopping him from speaking in Edmonton and Toronto, due today and tomorrow.

So they arrest Tommy Robinson for an immigration issue. Meanwhile, millions pour across their border illegally and nothing is done about it.

Canada has devolved into a fascist cesspit so quickly, it's still hard to fathom.
