Coutts Blockade

[jazz]

Keep that white rage in check.

Please keep us abreast of the vaccine science. Its so informative. I dont want any misinformation now.

I would love to see our impotent military try to remove these guys (and their new US reinforcements) in front of cameras.

How about this for an idea for de-escalation.
Agree to dismantle the blockades in exchange for releasing of the GoFundMe money and no criminal charges.
And take the GoFundMe money and offer $100 a day to every truck driver who is willing to go on strike. By my account you could pay 10,000 truck drivers $100 a day for 10 days. They can all go and sit at home peacefully not bothering anyone. I somehow think the inconvenienced folks in Ottawa may be begging a trucker to come back and fill their fuel pumps and grocery store shelves.
No one would be breaking any laws. I expect uptake would be much higher.

Looks like UCP members have broken ranks and made a deal with the truckers to open a lane and drop some mandates. Kenney probably shting bricks about now.

US truckers flocking to Ottawa to remove the LPC and they wont give a fck what CBC calls them.

Have seen confirmation of this from a couple different sources. Wonder what the game plan is. MLA's agree to eliminate mandates and restrictions and if Kenney doesn't get on board he get o'tooled on Apr 9. Will have to scrounge up some bucks to get this done. Would like to see Apr 9 moved sooner.

How is a provincial gov going to remove Federal restrictions?

Back benchers making deals - ya right.

Well by that time omicron is supposed to be
Over the hump to the point a lot will be opened
In fact I’m the next 2 to 3 weeks. So why all
This garbage when it’s coming anyway.

So why did politicians pick the trucker vaccine mandate as the hill to die on if what you say is true?

The truckers is a false flag let’s be real
The Americans have a mandate so
Doesn’t matter what we would have done.
On that front. This is a political movement.
I think everyone understands that don’t they?
The trucking industry was dealing with this fine.
Ironically this will cause more disruptions and
Shortages than what we had before.

Omicron has been rising here and predicted
To peak soon so if that happens
Things should go the other way.

A lot of people were fined big dollars I think
Thsts a lot of motive also.

The fact Kenney and Moe weren’t gone after
As aggressively speaks volumes that this is
A political stunt more than anything

[riders2010]

What’s to stop any other group from
Going to Ottawa or Saskatchewan leg and demand a
Change back? Or what if the natives went and
Demanded all the land back or a trillion dollars
and wouldn’t leave
Until government resigned??? This would set a
Precedent that would lead us to constant chaos
That’s why people fought for right to vote to change
Laws. You can’t just appoint yourself the law changer
And certainly not by some that don’t represent
The majority by a wide margin.

Did u mean Trudeau. He did exactly that.

He is the one doubling down. Interprovincial passes next. No it stops here and now.
