They’re dug in. The jack-booted thugs have shown up in droves this morning. City employees erected a fence around parliment this morning. Must be conferring with D.C. /s

“”If anyone is going to be breaking the law, it’s them.” “

Also it sounds like TruDope Castreau never met the requirement to invoke the Emergency legislation.

I’d be a little more aggressive at this point. Take my truck and go home, and stay there.
No food, or fuel shipments to Ottawa.

I just saw a new video, where some of the protesters are now blowing the shofar outside of parliament, along with the ongoing truck horns.

Leftists get south North America. Civilized humans get north North America.

At the Pacific Highway crossing in Blaine this morning the RCMP has basically militarized the border. K9 teams in the surrounding fields, CCTV crews on site, all southbound vehicles being screened for paperwork and intentions. Both north and south restricted to one lane. All side entrances are closed and manned.

Very few brave protesters at the edge of this, who I air-horned in support. That small gesture resulted in a close tailing of my rig by a RCMP supervisor’s patrol car in order to get my license information.

F_cking JBTs!!!

Amazing to see how quickly Australia and Canada slip into fascist tyranny, and how much of their population cheers it on.

Remember when we used to say "it can't happen here"? They did too.

Up here in BC I find that most of the workers support the Ottawa truckers. This is NOT true for the East Indians who seem very eager to comply and also enforce the mandates.

Lots of anti- Trudeau stickers, flags, graffiti up here now too.

They have a larger left wing than we do even compared to Washington State - says a lot.

I heard Trudeau was doing the same thing, so they have something in common!

"Somebody can go take my house, I don't care at this point" Vizi said. "Probably, my bank account is froze."

"I'm broke financially anyway so take it, who cares?"

A man who feels he has nothing to lose is not the enemy you want.

I’d rather be dead than jobless and broke anyway, so let’s get it on - I don’t have all day

Heck, I grew up in Vancouver BC. It ALWAYS has been “militarized” esp. AFTER 9/11. I’ve said it multiple times: it’s ALWAYS the idiot gestapo RCMP/ immigration guards on the Canadian side which gives me problems..not the US side. They hate Canadians who get a green card thinking we’re all traitors (SPIT)

Why don’t you change your screen name to “Sir Robin”

A ceremonial Jewish horn, most notably employed on Jericho and by Gabriel to bring this mess to a close.

It is also a pun on “book” or “scroll” once one knocks out the vowels and applies some imagination.

I think that they are also blown to begin the Sabbath year, but I don’t guarantee I have that detail quite right, and I need to get back to class prep.

Correct on Monty Python. I’m impressed. (I would expect 20-40% of the board to get the reference, but a random individual to, on average, miss it).

There is a time to live and fight another day, and then there is St. Crispin’s day. It seems to me that this is a time for the Bard rather than for John Cleese.
