The surrounding country side is definitely nice, the city on the other hand.....

The brother-in-law was forced to withdraw his donation and claim he didn't know what the cause was for, so the get together should be OKthat would certainly make the next family get together interesting.
Whose brother-in-law ISN'T stupid?
Mine. I can honestly say that my brother-in-law is in the top five smartest people I have ever met…. But I’m only in my 50s so that may change over time.
If I were Trudeau's speechwriter, it would go something like this-
Hard-working truckers of Canada and their equally salt-of-the-earth supporters...we're all in this together. This pandemic has tested our resolve, tried our collective patience and forced adversity upon all of us.
But now is the time for thoughtful reflection. With that sentiment in mind, if the protest is willing to peacefully disperse the Government of Canada will scale back the vaccine mandates over the upcoming weeks and months. We will continue to work with and seek advice from our Healthcare Professionals, while addressing the needs and concerns of Canadians from all walks of life.
Let us be that example to the rest of the world...the right to peacefully protest...to agree to disagree when needed...to voice concerns without fear of violence or retaliation...to pull together as a Nation during trying times.
This is and has always been the Canadian way.
(I think something along those lines would go a long way to mending fences. I really believe this thing is about to get out of control.)

Well said.
It also avoids a significant problem. . . how to keep the Wildrose Wankers from getting in their twucks and blockading Ottawa whenever a PM they don't like is elected.
Ancient wisdom. . . "If you pay the Danegeld, you'll never be rid of the Dane."
Yes, & if this would have been done on or before January 31st, 2022 it would have been very effective & an impressive show of statesmanship, but here we are.
‘Immediately’ end protest or face arrest, Ottawa police warn truckers — Toronto Star
Protestors block the roadway at the Ambassador Bridge border crossing in Windsor, Ont. on Feb. 9, 2022.
There’s a discrepancy regarding this, but…
Truckers were and still are essential workers.Justin Trudeau; "Truckers were essential workers for 2 years when needed, now they are terrorists." Said Trudeau Probably
Canadians held hostage by Trudeau's (AKA The Elite Cupcake) Ego.
NOTE: I don't agree with blockades.. legal protests yes..
The real truckers are still working and trying to deliver essentials to Canadians but being prevented from doing so at some border crossings by blockades.
BTW, exactly what are the Federal mandates that are preventing truckers form working? I am serious and curious. I can ony think of one and that is the vaccination requirement to cross the border.
So now the auto sector is affected. Piss off the UAW and see how long this will last and where support lies.
The 90% of truckers that are working are paying the price.

I see most of the trouble with this is that Trudeau has absolutely no tact, no sense of any diplomacy whatsoever. It's his way or the highway. If his members disagree with him they get axed.
If he would have met with them the first day of this, it would all be over by now. He met with other protesters in the last couple of years, even took a knee for them, although some of their groups actions were illegal.......He chose this route

Meh, Brandon's more tactful. And has a better grasp of how government functions.
Certainly not the one I woulda chosen though. I didn't vote for, I voted against.
