Read with a grain of salt, as it is from The [S]Hill.

[Qui is]

“...serious danger and threat to the safety and security of residents.”

LMFAO!

Do these political hacks honestly think anybody actually believes this BS?

[fwdude]

No one is safer than in the presence of these truckers. Far safer than on the street with a BLM rally.

Sounds like Mayor Watson doesn’t have the Cajones to stand on his own.d

Do these political hacks honestly think anybody actually believes this BS?

Democrat voters believe it, because they need to believe it. They need to believe that the other side is worse than their side.

Local Detroit radio / TV are still reporting this as a COVID lock down protest. Pretty even. So far.
Local Windsor Radio is in in full panic mode.
Ambassador Bridge still closed down, and the Blue Water Bridge waits are getting longer. The affects are being felt in Michigan now. Going to be an interesting week after the Super Bowl is over. This will be the only story.

Number 1 is a lie, didn’t bother with the rest.

[Luke21]

I can’t read anything from the ass*holes.

[pfflier]

Covid restrictions are the catalyst but the origins are much deeper..Incredibly missing, is this is a Joe Six Pack revolution against government elites and is gaining traction worldwide.

I have been watching various live streamers like Ottowalks etc on YouTube and rumble for about a week and the only person I saw who was nearly injured was somebody hugged by one of truckers.

Ottawa is under siege

Pure BS!

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

I’m watching a street party right now and have tears in my eyes.

Would love to be there right now!

Here’s ‘live feed downtown Ottawa tonight’...with band and crowd enjoying their cause for freedom

a Joe Six Pack revolution against government elites
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Good way of putting it.

Some have made a comparison with Lech Walesa/Solidarity versus the commie elites which I think is a good one.

[Reily]

Agree on both!

[lastchance]

As long as the police and politicians can be convinced they don’t care who else really believes it.

[frank ballenger]

Far safer than on the street with a BLM rally.

They may have problems trying to get a BLM rally going. Canada was 3.1% black in 2020 but could have supporters come out to riot, loot and burn if necessary. All for the cause.

So Canada is mostly safe.

[The Great RJ]

Far simpler...the common people are revolting against their liberal elite overlords. COVID fatigue is more like the common people are sick of the petty tyrants often senseless edicts especially when the elites are hypocrites who never follow those edicts themselves. The people are sick of the condescention and contempt heaped on them by haughty elites like Trudeau. The people are mad as hell and aren’t going to take it anymore.

Demonstration is now something that causes “a state of emergency”.

It’s illegal to demonstrate.
