Canada is the only country in the world where it is deemed appropriate to invoke the War Measures Act so that police can charge protesters with... "incitement to mischief." (Not actual "mischief," mind you; just "incitement.")
The NDP used to be principled defenders of civil liberties.
Sad to see that today’s NDP are apologists for the disproportionate & unnecessary use of emergency powers.
So people in Canada are losing their jobs because they donated to a political cause retroactively declared illegal by the federal government, on the basis of being publicly identified by the media, using stolen data from a fundraising website. Totally normally, right? #cdnpoli
#RCMP call latest attack on #CoastalGasLink people and property ‘a calculated and organized violent attack that left its victims shaken and a multimillion dollar path of destruction.” https://t.co/7IZ54hS8M0 #LNGinBC#bcpoli#cdnpoli
For the record, I have had covid and am not a danger to myself, anyone else or the health care system, yet, I am treated this way. NOBODY cared. Then truckers cared. If this is hard to understand, well, you just might be a monster.
Some people didn't even have the support of their own family. We were shamed and hated by some of the government and the rest of the government didn't defend us or help. When we spoke up, we were told 'you get what you deserve' or 'just die already'.
In case anyone has trouble understanding why the truckers have such a large support, our government collectively ignored the voices of Canadians that were hopeless, demeaned, fired, held prisoner in the country & banned from society. No one stood up for us. Then the truckers did.
In the Banana Republic of Canada, the banks have been told to rat out customers who donated to the #FreedomConvoy to the RCMP and CSIS (the 🇨🇦 spies) and disclose the "existence of property in their possession or control".
This is financial terrorism against Canadian citizens.
Justin Trudeau: "We're not suspending fundamental rights."
Ottawa police: "You can expect to see police checkpoints where you will be asked your reason for travelling within the Secured Area. You will be required to show proof of exemption for your travel to the Secured Area."
The World Economic Forum is a deadly toxin to freedom and democracy that has poisoned many Canadian politicians.
The WEF must be expelled from Canada and all their political puppets must be fired ASAP.
This is very important for our freedom and our future.
I live in downtown Ottawa. I’ve walked around almost every day since the trucks arrived. I have not been terrorized, held hostage or harassed.
I’ve witnessed Canadians with smiles on their faces being filled with hope and joy as they stand together for their rights and freedoms.
Prime Minister Trudeau just accused my good friend @MelissaLantsman, a Jewish MP, of “standing with people who wave swastikas.”
The Prime Minister should lead by reducing tensions at this time. Instead he has decided to divide, defame and inflame.
