You are not even doing your own homework. Just faithfully regurgitating the CBC line.
Ottawa police make 7 arrests and tow 24 vehicles during Rolling Thunder bike rally weekend

Dave, the spokesperson behind Live from the Shed, said those who committed the vandalism is directly responsible, but he also blamed governments. “Governments have created an environment of hate and division where certain people are being categorized by our government, by our mainstream media, as dangerous,” he said in the video.
“It’s not like it’s directly the government’s fault, but they’ve created this climate where it’s OK to hate certain types of people. It’s OK to discriminate against certain types of people. When our government is saying that these people are chauvinists, that they’re racists, it creates justification for this kind of thing.”
The only hate-motivated crime reported during the “Rolling Thunder” weekend was against the bikers, he said.
I firmly believe that this is exactly what has happened and because we're so busy living and not paying attention, we are where we are. People who trust the government that represents them completely, a government that consistently lies to their constituents will be dismayed when the "crap" finally hits the fan.

Unfortunately most of them will be oblivious to how the government is manipulating them until it is too late. 1984 should be mandatory reading in hi school.
Geographically…relocate the national capital to what’s now Geographically central to all Canadians & not just Central Canada…Well, if you want the true centre of the universe ... it should be Toronto.
I think not being a provincial capital would actually be a good thing as it would remove conflict of interest. I think that was one of the reasons Ottawa was chosen over Toronto….
Geographically relocating the national capital to where its centrally located to all Canadians….geographically….maybe I should have mentioned geographically above as opposed to being vague.
This isn’t 1867 or whatever, & the center of Canada isn’t geographically between Toronto and Montreal, & Ottawa as a capital is only open to some Canadians and not all apparently during this current NDP/Liberal divisive reign….. so if it’s going to be relocated it might as well be relocated geographically to where it is relatively equidistant from all coasts, making it more accessible to ALL Canadians & not just “Central” Canadians…
….& perhaps even welcoming to all Canadians as opposed to just the approved Canadians??
Move it to Grise Ford. And pass a law requiring all MPs to be resident at least 10 months out of the year. Let 'em leave in November and March.
With dictator Trudeau, he wants everything his way. Don't want to go his way? Then you must pay for your cheekiness. He will pull an emergency act on you. He is like a kid in the candy shop that cries like a toddler when his mother tells him that he can't have all the candy in the store. What a dork. LOL.
Good luck if one thinks that Quebec would ever go along with that idea. Then with the capital of Canada being in Winnipeg would mean that Quebec would not be in full control of English Canada anymore. And I do not think or believe that Ontario would go for that idea either. For now, Ottawa will remain the capital of eastern Canada for awhile longer yet or until the west finally separates if it ever succeeds in trying to separate from Eastern Canada at all.
Yep, but if the capital does come up as needing to be transplanted to become actually centrally located geographically and someplace all Canadians can go to without the “You’re banned from Ottawa” type shit….& the current government gets a say, the capital of Canada will be Tofino according to my Girlfriend.
Looks like another victory for fair speech.
Thanks the deities this country was built on fair speech.

What on Earth is your definition of “Fair” speech anyway? New term to me, at least in a political context.
Or Whistler . Smart girl keep her around .
While Canada sends aid to Ukraine to try and help Ukraine fight for their so called freedoms, here in Canada, we are losing our freedoms. Is there something wrong with this phukin picture?
Just say no to digital currency.
Well then take up arms and take your government back.. I’m sure you’ll have a bunch of followers
Fair Speech to him is any speech in praise of TrueDope or approved by TrueDope.
Fair speech is the proper balance that allows free speech without significant harm to others.
It's what we eventually accomplished after the trucker invasion and what perpared us for the biker cult.
That’s your own definition & twist on reality. The notion of fair speech expands the idea of ‘free speech’ to incorporate the concept of justice. Indeed, in a context of media concentration, dominant powers (whether political, economic, religious, ideological, etc.) are the most represented and heard (because they are powerful or loud). Fair speech fosters speech equity for other voices that are often marginalised and/or censored to be heard. Fair speech therefore promotes an equitable access to expression (for example for women, historically marginalised groups, etc.), enabling an authentic diversity of voices.
Fair Speech is exactly the opposite of of who was promoted by the Jagmeet/Justin non-coalition coalition three months ago to that Trucker Convoy thing or three days ago to that Biker Rally. The NDP/Liberals didn’t encourage a voice to a marginalized group, But stepped on it proactively well in advance to Malign and silence it. Wow….
