MPs to vote tonight on Liberals’ decision to invoke Emergencies Act for blockades

Designating no go zones within Canada’s capital, ensuring tow trucks were available to remove vehicles from city streets and stopping the flow of money and goods keeping anti-government demonstrators fed and fuelled are all clear ways the Emergencies Act helped end the Ottawa blockades, Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino said on Sunday ahead of a House of Commons vote on the controversial measure.

Conservatives, however, are highly critical of the government move and some are pushing the Liberals to revoke the act now that blockades that effectively shut the city down for more than three weeks appear to be over.

Papers please…

Evidently the Fiends did business with Truckers.

“… Another local business that is open in downtown Ottawa is Iconic Cafè on Slater Street. While the owner declined an interview request because of how busy it was on Saturday afternoon, Nic Langman, an Orillia resident who has attended the protest for two of the three weekends, says the cafè has been more than accommodating to protesters.

On Saturday, the business well exceeded the six-person capacity limit posted outside its entrance. Customers could also be seen inside not following the mask mandate.

“The owner and his staff have been wonderful,” Langman said. “They are saying if someone needs to use a bathroom, they are more than welcome to come here.”

Conservative senator MacDonald derides Ottawa residents in video

A Conservative senator from Nova Scotia was seen on a video deriding the response of people who live in Ottawa to recent protests, saying he’s sick of their entitlement and “six-figure salaries and 20-hour work weeks.”

In the video recorded near Parliament Hill, Sen. Michael MacDonald expressed support for the protesters who occupied Ottawa for more than three weeks.

And Now, It’s Economic Warfare

With the world reopening, and even US blue states and cities repealing mandates, how optimistic should we be? A little bit is warranted but not that much. What we are seeing right now in Ottawa reveals the hegemonic depth of the system that gave us lockdowns, then mandates: it is now capable of freezing your accounts and essentially starving you and your family.

After a big show of force against truckers, Trudeau’s regime bruits making its new powers permanent

It’s just this one little sliver of Sudetenland.

It’s just ten days to stop the spread.

It’s just some street clearing in Canada.

And now we have this from the Trudeau regime, seeking to make its highly questionable power grab against the truckers protesting Canada’s vaccine mandates a part of its permanent powers.

The Decline of Free Societies is Rooted in These Two Words from Justin Trudeau

When he responded to truckers protesting vaccine mandates by saying they had “unacceptable views,” he was undermining the fundamental right to dissent.

On February 24, 2020, a former judge of the Supreme Court of India, Justice Deepak Gupta, delivered a lecture to the Bar arguing that “the right to dissent is the most important right granted by the Constitution.”

Gupta took the ancient idea of challenging authority and gave it dignity: “To question, to challenge, to verify, to ask for accountability from the government is the right of every citizen under the constitution,” he said. “These rights should never be taken away otherwise we will become an unquestioning moribund society, which will not be able to develop any further.”

A Social Credit System Arrives in Canada

Justin Trudeau just created a caste of economic untouchables. Can we stop this dystopian policy from taking hold in America?

Last summer, I warned readers of Common Sense that financial deplatforming would be the next wave of online censorship. Big Tech companies like PayPal were already working with left-wing groups like the ADL and SPLC to define lists of individuals and groups who should be denied service. As more and more similarly minded tech companies followed suit (as happened with social media censorship), these deplorables would be deplatformed, debanked, and eventually denied access to the modern economy altogether, as punishment for their unacceptable views.

That prediction has become reality.

Requiem for a Nation

It may seem hard to believe that America’s neighbor to the north is now a full-fledged, up-and-running police state. Heavily-armed police are arresting and, in some cases, roughing up, severely beating, and trampling with horses members of the truckers’ Freedom Convoy in Ottawa as well as bystanders. The country has gone off the rails.

Trudeau’s Police Are Going After The Iconic Cafe, A Small Business That Served Truckers


This is a clear example of the federal and Ottawa municipal governments being vindictive of anyone even supportive of the truckers.

Businesses that remained open like the Iconic Cafe made the government and legacy media look unhinged by proving the truckers and convoy supporters were peaceful and good for small businesses in Ottawa.

The truckers were not only not a nuisance to the Iconic Cafe, but according to the owners, the wives of truckers were even helping clean their bathrooms and mopping floors to provide services to them for remaining open for the convoy.

Justin Trudeau and the Alchemy of Irony

Canada’s prime minister won a skirmish but lost his credibility, which means that he has also lost legitimacy and will lose the war.

As the philosopher Bertie Wooster was wont to observe, “it’s always just when a fellow is feeling particularly braced with things in general that Fate sneaks up behind him with a bit of lead piping.” Authorities are divided on whether Bertie was correct in attributing the observation to Shakespeare. Perhaps it has its origin in the reflections of some other sage. But regarding the pertinence of the phenomenon to the conduct of human affairs there seems to be general agreement. The Greek tragedians analyzed it as a cosmic interplay of ὕβρις and ἄτη, arrogance followed by infatuation and ruin. I am not sure whether little Justin Trudeau, prime minister pro tem of Canada, has given much thought to the operation of this awful (in the old sense) dialectic, but I suspect that he is about to make its close and palpable acquaintance.

Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau has been denounced by a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) over the “tyrannical actions” he has taken against peaceful protestors taking part in the ongoing ‘Freedom Convoy’ demonstrations.

Trampling The Truckers – The Great Reset Becomes The Great Awakening

There are few words to describe the depth of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s depravity. I’m not going to even try.

This is a person, because no real man would ever govern like him, so thoroughly ill-prepared for its job it doesn’t even know how to properly read from the prepared script.

It was all fun and games making Trudeau/Hitler memes until this week when Trudeau’s enforcers on horseback trampled an old woman.

Nice Turnouts!

‘The job’s not yet done’: Blair says risk that prompted Emergencies Act still exists

Even after nearly 200 arrests made in Ottawa over the past couple of days in an effort to crack down on “Freedom Convoy” protesters, Emergency Preparedness Minister Bill Blair says the job is “not yet done.”

Following a briefing with law enforcement officials on Sunday morning, the minister said threats that prompted the federal government to invoke the Emergencies Act are ongoing.

“It’s still clear that although they’ve made very significant progress, and we’re pleased with the progress that they’ve made, the job’s not yet done,” he said in an interview on CTV’s Question Period. “The reasons why we had to bring forward these measures, unfortunately, still exist.”
