Actually, and this is gonna sound weird, I was going to be a horses ass and pop up a picture of this guy in his brown coat with his Nazi flag and say something along the lines of it’s too cold just for a shirt, etc….

Anyway, The guys gone. I can’t find a single image of this guy and it’s all there was for the most part a few nights back when I googled “Nazi Flag Ottawa Protest Convoy”. I’m using the same search engine and the same words and he’s just not there anymore.

this is seriously strange. I tried the same words in a different order which shouldn’t make any difference and it didn’t. The guy who I was seeing repeatedly from different angles were in the brown coat and the Nazi flag is just gone now. not a single image of him.
It was one or two lone assholes. It ain't hard to miss a Nazi or Klan group, cuz they'll make damn sure you know they're there.

Oh Lord…. If ever there was a topic to make your head hurt and in just utter frustration, it’s trying to listen to one of these people that thinks that they’re a “Free Man of the Land” or what have you.

I sat down and tried to understand somebody many years ago on this tangent and to this day I just shake my head. Holy cow….

Only a hopeless optimist. Anybody who had their eyes open in 1970 could see it coming clear as a Canadian truck. That it took until the 21st century was surprising.

I'm really not sure what to think.

a) Army, fines and jail time?

Or/

b) A statesman-like address from our PM attempting to reunite Canadians.

I've got lefty friends and righty friends all giving me their viewpoints. I believe 'A' could get ugly and violent. But 'B' may be construed as a sign of weakness from Trudeau, and these types of protests will become the new norm.

I'm scratching my head over this one, like never before.

IMO, Trudeau should have spoken to people at the start.

He didn't; that's his fuck up.

Anything he does NOW is going to go badly.

Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't.

Honestly he painted himself into this corner and there's nothing for him to do but to wait for the paint to dry.

Meanwhile the province can handle things for the most part.

But I think the longer this goes on, the worse it is on the truckers.

Fair points, Serryah,

The truckers may only be that 10%, but the support and sentiment for them is far more reaching imo. Anyhoo, looks like Doug Ford has mowed Trudeau's lawn and fired the first real shots at these truckers.

My take?

The left manipulates using language.

The right manipulates using machinery.

And these two are about to collide, folks!

If there is any intervention, it'll probably be



And the right is the one that manipulates using language. That's why they care so much about so-called 'free speech'.

Got offered a Brampton load, medication. I refused it.. and every trucker after me.. still sitting on the dock.

I refuse to deliver anymore food, medical or dry goods to Ontario..

A boycott of Colorado worked.. store sheleves went bare.. within 1 month the Govenor caved in.

Okay, absolutely serious here.

Why refuse Boom?

What is it you "want"? And yes I get you've likely said it before, but humour me; condense it down here.
