So, ask the dicktatorof Canada if he really cares? The dick will just go away, and sulk away and sit in some corner, and then try and figure out as to how or what he will try to do next time to make something stick. The dick is truly Canada's new Teflon Don.

Just like the "homeless" situation in our cities. We talk and talk and talk yet nothing changes. So WTH? Sounds like an "industry" regarding that as well.
In my neighbourhood there are 2-5 abandoned/ burned out house per block (approximately 200.according to city hall). There were rental homes galore in Regina but not anymore.
If you have a fire you get all new clothes, furniture, "crisis cash", put up in a hotel (waterslide of course) and take out meals for a month by Social Services.
Blow your welfare on dope, have a fire the day before eviction and go on a holiday.
It's fucked.

On one level, federal Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino’s continuing failure to produce an actual police force that actually asked the Trudeau government to invoke the Emergencies Act during the Freedom Convoy protest in Ottawa, is hilarious.
As Lorrie Goldstein wrote in a recent column, Mendicino’s lack of candour on the issue now reads like the script of an episode of the famous British political satire sitcom, “Yes Minister”.
That level of farce was achieved when Mendicino’s own deputy minister appeared before the joint parliamentary committee examining why the Trudeau government made its unprecedented decision to invoke the Emergencies Act — thus suspending civil liberties across the country — to break up a three-week long street demonstration in Ottawa.
Rob Stewart, Mendicino’s deputy, offered up the novel explanation that when Mendicino said a dozen times going back to the protest in February that the police had asked for and recommended the federal government invoke the Emergencies Act, what he meant was that the police hadn’t directly given the government that advice or made that recommendation.
Rather, Stewart said, what Mendicino meant — and what everyone has apparently “misunderstood” — was that “law enforcement asked for the tools that were contained in the Emergencies Act.” (?)

On one level, federal Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino’s continuing failure to produce an actual police force that actually asked the Trudeau government to invoke the Emergencies Act during the Freedom Convoy protest in Ottawa, is hilarious. As Lorrie Goldstein wrote in a recent column...
The bottom line remains the same.
Mendicino has repeatedly said over a period of months that the police (the RCMP and the Ottawa police) requested and advised the Trudeau government to invoke the Emergencies Act, while the two police forces in question have testified that did not make such a request.
That is a very serious matter.
Not just that Mendicino appears to have misled Parliament, but that the Trudeau government has yet to offer a convincing explanation for why it took the unprecedented step of invoking the Emergencies Act.
By comparison, then prime minister Jean Chretien didn’t invoke the Emergencies Act during 9/11 and Justin Trudeau himself didn’t think it was necessary for the pandemic, both far more serious potential threats to public safety than a noisy street demonstration in Ottawa.
That’s what I though was happening the last two elections where the Conservatives got more votes than any other party, but “seat distribution” and here we are.
So vote him out. 50% won't do it? Get 53. Or 55. Or whatever it takes. That's what we had to do.
You definitely are Trumpian. Quick with accusations of nefarious dealings, real slow with the evidence.
It's cool. MAGAhats don't need facts. They got DA TROOF!
Yup even a dead man walking can get 81,000,000 votes in America , the most ever .
67% of Canadians voted against him and he's still PM. Only now, despite stating that "Canadians had spoken" after the last election, he told Canadians to go fuck themselves as he finagled himself an ersatz majority govt. I understand two opposition parties forming a coalition to try and rein in a runaway govt, but to subvert the democratic process by forming a coalition that effectively gives you a majority govt is an extreme abuse of one of the institutions that Groper keeps whining on about that Canadians are losing faith in. Gee, can't imagine why we are.
And if they hadn't split their votes among the PCs, the NPDs, the M-O-U-S-Es, the Bloc Quebecois, the Bloc Myblockandthenextblock, the Greens, the Blues, the Reds, the Redblacks, and the Oilers, he wouldn't be in.
Guess what? Y'all have a multi-party system. I know this comes as a great shock to you.
