    Trudeau calls trucker protest an 'insult to truth'

    This is all about politics and Trudeau’s desire to pump up his base of supporters against the protesters, attach the protest movement to Conservatives, and reap the rewards with increased voter support if or when violent confrontation with the police takes place. Compare that to his comments on...

    Trucker protest at U.S. border crossing reportedly several kilometres long

    I’m assuming he doesn’t want to be caught up in that goat rodeo. I sure as Hell don’t. I’ve got a load (this is one of 30 trucks) set up already (these all have to be set up in advance electronically for specific borders, or if the driver arrives at the border without it being set up with the...

    Conservatives demanding O'Toole resign again

    Me too! Canada needs something different at this point, & putting out the trifecta of NDP/Liberals/Bloc with a side of Green to something closer to the middle is maybe overdue.

    Let’s see how the weekend pans out, and if this just spreads out to all the smaller border crossings, like Herpes or athletes foot.

    Trudeau calls trucker protest an 'insult to truth'

    Oh great. This’ll be just wonderful for international relations. At least he didn’t try & dress up like his mental image of a typical American like he did with India.

    Trucker protest at U.S. border crossing reportedly several kilometres long

    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...

    Trucker protest at U.S. border crossing reportedly several kilometres long

    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...

    Trucker protest at U.S. border crossing reportedly several kilometres long

    There was more than one, but maybe less than three, just based on a Google image search a few night ago. I was curious…mostly it’s the same guy in the brown coat from different angles.

    Trucker protest at U.S. border crossing reportedly several kilometres long

    My contacts at the borders are only across Western Canada so I really can’t comment on that. More nonsense is coming though.

    Trucker protest at U.S. border crossing reportedly several kilometres long

    I really have no idea how this is going to end but it’s not over. Outside of the yahoos in Ottawa (both elected and protesters), this has spread from Coutts/Sweetgrass to Windsor/Detroit to Emerson yesterday & more are coming. Inside contacts (not to the protests but just from the industry in...

    Alberta, Saskatchewan announce abrupt end to COVID-19 restrictions

    I think the mindset of much of the Population has changed, and a year from now I’m not sure how comfortable I’m gonna be in a crowd. I kind of like having a 6 foot bubble around me. Maybe that’s just me though. If I don’t know your first name you can stay out of my 6 foot range….

    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. http://apple.news/AHyH8JoJvTQuCJDxjsyVihw

    Alberta, Saskatchewan announce abrupt end to COVID-19 restrictions

    I’m not sure how I feel about this after two years of turtling in, but it had to happen eventually & someone had to be first.

    Trudeau calls trucker protest an 'insult to truth'

    The world is watching and will make up its mind whether high-minded Canadian sentiments to engage with those one disagrees with apply only elsewhere but not at home, unless the cause happens to be one you support yourself. Recall that Trudeau made a cameo appearance at the Black Lives Matter...
