Woke mobs have ripped down statues of the Queen, her ancestor Queen Victoria, and explorer Captain James Cook in Canada.
“Winnipeg: Queen Elizabeth down, Canadian flag down, Warrior flag up,” crowed the Communist Party of Canada on its verified Twitter account, alongside the hashtag #CancelCanadaDay and a picture of an activist trampling the vandalised face of Queen Victoria’s toppled statue.

“This is the state legislature building and not a policeman in sight,” lamented Robert Poll of the Save Our Statues campaign, sharing one of the videos of the large statue of Victoria sitting on a throne being dragged from its plinth. Mob members subsequently took off her head and threw it in a river.
The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) — roughly equivalent to Britain’s BBC — reports that one man was “shocked… with a stun gun and arrested” during the disorder at the Manitoba Legislature in Winnipeg — but added that he may not have been a statue-toppler.
“It’s possible the arrested man was angry at those who had pulled the statue down at around 4 p.m. CT,” the broadcaster noted, adding that a police spokesman had indicated that “there may be information forthcoming on Friday.”

They've had a tough time with the pandemic and ever since have been in a virtue signalling melt-down over a host of issues.
Yeah baby…woke…demise of civilization…
You want to see representatives of Canadian government, try misgendering somebody.
There is no sense of self preservation left. Culture and history is whatever the Leftist mob decrees it is. How quickly Canada has fallen.
Sad to see, but I can’t care about Canada more than the Canadians. Defend your country, or don’t.
Actually pretty much the whole world has gone over the edge.
We’re in Romans Chapter 1 territory. Read it. Read it slow. Let it sink in.
Canadians have gone absolutely over the edge. They’ve had a tough time with the pandemic
*************
Which pandemic — the virological or idiological one?
We have multiple “diseases” eating away at civilization these days.
Actually pretty much the whole world has gone over the edge.
************
True that. Countries around the world seem to be self-destructing. Its as if mayhem is preferred over an orderly civilization.
Where the hell are the police hiding?
If we follow Canada’s lead, communists will soon come after all statues of Washington, Jefferson and Lincoln. Then they will destroy all statues of Jefferson Davis and Robert E. Lee!
Insane
Oh Canada and 11 Roman Catholic churches vandalized with red paint in Calgary.
Why don’t THEY ever set an example and give THEIR home and possessions to whoever think it was stolen from. And enslave THEMSELVES for its new owner.
Bkmk
“Where the hell are the police hiding?”
The police are in alliance with the new Maoist Red Guard terrorists. Don’t look for assistance from them.
My late father was the Police Chief of our small town and he would be appalled.
Some...I assure you, not All.
Nice that this is not a US city for a change. Today’s feel good news?
