Two words...General Strike!

And a long, dark night falls north of the border.

General strike, lawsuits, let's hope everything they come up with works.

Cool it with that stuff

Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson on Saturday proposed selling trucks and other vehicles seized during the police’s violent dismantling of the Freedom Convoy, stating that it was the Canadian capital’s legal right due to the Trudeau’s government shocking invocation of the Emergencies Act.

“We actually have the ability to confiscate those vehicles and sell them,” Watson said, according to Canadian public broadcaster CBC. “And I want to see them sold. I don’t want the return to these people who’ve been causing such frustration and angst in our community.”

Over the weekend, law enforcement in Ottawa arrested 191 individuals during its violent crackdown on the city’s Freedom Convoy protest. It issued 391 charges, including mischief and obstructing police. Chris Harkins, who serves as deputy commissioner with the Ontario Provincial Police, confirmed that police seized 76 vehicles.

Rearding your first point - I strongly disagree. The American Civil War was one of the bloodiest/most destructive conflicts in all of human history and (alongside the American Revolution) it defined this nation, its military and its people.

As devastating as our Civil War was, and it most certainly was, I'm still not convinced it rises to the level of devastation that resulted from the world wars, or that either side suffered to the point of being tempted to trade away freedom for a large centralized goverment's promise of stability, if the option had been offered.

But the Civil War most certainly was an American tragedy that echoed through generations of our nation's history and it wasn't my intention to minimize it, so I thank you for making that point.

Probably over 30 years ago, one of my first flight instructors, a WW II veteran who had been flying for @ 45 years at that point, complained about the WX reports we received for flight planning, as they routinely exaggerated forecasted dangers, obviously to avoid criticism or blame should an accident occur.

Even without the benefit of your direct experience working within a government agency, my instincts as a private sector tax payer looking at the government machine from the outside, it seems obvious that the bureaucracy is far more concerned with avoiding any shred of risk rather than accurate risk assessment or other important concerns.

Thanks for sharing your NASA experience!

I remember those days of 'VFR not recommended' when it was CAVU

Trudeau: They're closing down the roads and dancing in the streets, it's a National emergency. We must act! Let's block the roads to show them that no one blocks our roads.

That’s exactly what I thought of when the govt backlash started. Thousands of cornered animals, wounded ones, with nothing to lose are being created. Not good.

Canadian Pastor Arrested And Thrown in Solitary Confinement After Preaching to Blockade Truckers

https://amgreatness.com/2022/0...o-blockade-truckers/

An anti-lockdown Canadian pastor who was arrested earlier this month for preaching to Canadian truckers in Coutts, Alberta, has reportedly been thrown in solitary confinement where he has been on a hunger strike for two weeks.

Pastor Artur Pawlowski was arrested on February 8, before he left his house to perform a church service for the truckers who had set up a blockade on the Alberta-Montana border to protest vaccine passports. He has been charged with mischief over $5,000, aiding and abetting the blocking of critical infrastructure, and for breaching the bail condition for “not keeping the peace,” stemming from a previous arrest.

The pastor, who has been arrested multiple times throughout the pandemic for opposing restrictions, remained quiet for most of the arrest while his brother Dawid hurled blistering invectives at the arresting officers.

“I do not cooperate with Nazis,” Pawlowski said after the cops complained that he wouldn’t stand up.

Pastor Pawlowski called Calgary Chief of Police Mark Neufeld a “disgrace to the uniform” and blasted Alberta Premier Jason Kenney in a phone call with the the Christian Post from prison.

“Pawlowski accused Kenney of hypocrisy for not abiding by the coronavirus restrictions he imposed on the people of Alberta,” the outlet reported.

Dawid read a statement from his brother on Feb. 10 describing the abusive conditions of the jail.

“He was strip searched twice and checked for contraband,” Dawid began.

He was forced to go to the bathroom with an officer present and watching. They locked him twice in a small cage resembling a dog kennel with no air circulation, suffocating him for many hours, all without water to drink. After that, he was subjugated to a hard bench three times for hours on end all without any water to drink. When they took him back to his cell, his room was all upside down, flipped and searched for contraband. His bible was confiscated, and his narrated letter that was written to his lawyer was also confiscated.

“The totalitarian regime here in Canada is cracking down on any and all political opposition,” said Pawlowski’s son Nathan said on Steve Bannon’s War Room podcast on Monday. The younger Pawlowski said his father has been fasting since he was put in jail two weeks ago.

During a 20 minute speech to the truckers on February 3, Pastor Pawlowski urged them to hold the line and stand their ground without resorting to violence.

“Because of that speech, the government is claiming that he is responsible for the continuation of the trucker blockade down on the border,” Nathan said, going on to explain that his father was arrested at home before he could address the protesters again.

“An undercover minivan staked out our house, and they got him—they arrested him,” Nathan told Bannon. “He has been behind bars, in solitary confinement 23 hours a day with only one hour to contact family and friends and lawyers—for doing his job and practicing his constitutional rights.”

Nathan said his father has been denied bail twice.

Lethbridge Judge Erin Olsen on Feb. 17 agreed with the government’s concerns that the pastor “will re-offend and undermine the public’s confidence in the administration of justice, if he is released,” the Lethbridge Herald reported.

“There is a substantial likelihood that the accused will, if released from custody, commit a criminal offence or interfere with the administration of justice,” Olsen said. “The accused’s pattern of behaviour speaks volumes about his willful commission of offences and/or violations of court and public health orders.”

Indeed, Pawlowski has butted heads with Canadian authorities repeatedly throughout the pandemic. He has been arrested for holding a church services in violation of worship restrictions and for protesting outside the home of Alberta Health Minister Jason Copping.

A video of Pawlowski calling local police Nazis and Gestapo for entering his church on Easter Sunday to enforce coronavirus restrictions went viral last year.

Pawlowski and Dawid were arrested on New Year’s Day 2022 for allegedly breaking a court order.

The brothers were arrested on their way home from a protest against COVID rules and jab mandates that was held outside of the house of Alberta Health Minister Jason Copping.

“I guess in a kind of new Iron Curtain of Chinada you’re not allowed to voice your dissatisfaction with the wicked, evil, lying, deceiving, corrupted government official,” Pawlowski told Rebel News from jail after the Jan. 1 arrest. “I was handcuffed, arrested for breach, for mischief, and for obstruction, for whatever reason, I don’t really know, but those are the charges that I am facing.”

Artur and his brother Dawid emigrated to Canada from Poland, and the pastor become known for comparing the actions of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government to what he saw growing up behind the Iron Curtain.

Rebel News publisher Ezra Levant said on his talk show that the latest arrest of the Christian pastor was an example of how “authoritarian Canada” has become a virtual police state. “This was clearly an attempt to stop him from expressing himself politically to these truckers,” Levant said.

Nathan Pawlowski told Bannon that Trudeau’s government now has a “vendetta” against his father and he’s become a “political prisoner.”

“They keep denying him bail because I believe the charges are trumped up—they’re made up charges, and they know they’re not going to stick,” Nathan said. “So the only way they can get revenge on him—because he embarrassed them and exposed them on a global level—is by keeping him behind bars and denying him bail.”

Cindy Chafian, the executive director of Moms For America Action, said told Bannon that Pastor Pawlowski has been an inspiration to Canadians throughout the pandemic, encouraging them to stand up for their rights, and because of this, Trudeau’s government has “imprisoned him to keep him silent.”

Looks like that piece of paper they have for rights is useless with no guns to back them up.

Canuckistan is the laughing stock of third world tin pot dictators everywhere.

I keep seeing "no guns" made in arguments on this forum and elsewhere. What is this crap? Canadians have guns people.

As long as people have hope in the Democratic process of governance, guns will not be used. The hope right now is all of the MF'rs will be removed in the next election cycle.

But Trudeau is already trying to do the silky tongue wagging, lets just love one another . . .

He sounds like a brave man. Bravery and defiance are demanded in this obscenity. A bright spotlight has been shone on the totalitarians in Canada because of the actions of the truckers and men like this pastor; jailed without cause, property confiscated, bank accounts frozen, threats to seize their children and euthanize their pets; suspension of the Canadian Constitution for no valid reason. All of this can be seen clearly by anyone in the world who cares to open their eyes. The situation is untenable. Americans owe much to these Canadians who have brought all of this to light.

Just remember- we outnumber them. No violence is needed. If we stop producing and participating, the engine of the economy ceases to run, and if that happens, they'll suddenly find reason to give a decent imitation of a government which listens to its people.

For any Canadians looking in on this thread, just know that we here in the United States see what you see, and we're not going to forget or forgive one speck of it.

For all the preppers here- you were right- though, I suspect, not for the reasons you imagined.

A man with nothing to lose.

If there is a general strike, the leftists only have a few plays in their playbook before they commit acts of violence. They are adept at propaganda and using friendly media to create a narrative, but beyond that, it's physical violence to get their way. Trudeau has also not shown the worst he is capable of.

Of major concern to me is how quickly and completely the police/LEO became Jackbooted thugs.

Could it happen here?
