True. We used to cross over into Windsor for entertainment when I was in college. You barely needed to slow down for the Canadian side at the time. They just waved you in.

The way back was much tougher, with the US side asking questions and looking in your car.

NACI now suggests Canadians consider a COVID-19 booster every 90 days

RWSGFY says

Are you saying that the truckers movement is the same as pro-Russian party, created to circumvent the ban on the Communist party (yes, it's banned in Ukraine, boo-hoo) and whose members are openly collaborating with the Russian military on the occupied territories? Interesting angle on the truckers, for sure.

If Ukraine's traitorous government was consistent on their treatment of all foreign threats(assuming your assertions are correct), you would have a point. But they don't. Targeting just one group and not others is fascism and an affront to 1st Amendment rights.

If I look through your comments, what percentage will denounce Trudeau? Biden? Trump? Saudi Arabia? US bombings in Africa, and the Middle East? Out of all that's wrong with the world, why is this one your hill when you aren't Russian or Ukrainian? Is it because you fell for the propaganda? You do know that doesn't make you unique. It's happened to millions of people around the world recently. Now admitting you were duped, THAT would make you stand out.

I have mixed feelings on this. Conflict of interest, being paid by the same government and donating to a protest of that government?

Interesting case...

Canadians' cost of living is at a "crisis point" as the federal government announces new measures aimed at easing the burden. Likely recipients say the assistance, which includes a one-time increased Canada Housing Benefit, a temporary increase in the GST tax credit and better access to dental care, is a good first step, but more needs to be done. Critics fear it could make inflation worse. Most analysts tell Reuters they expect inflationary pressures to peak in the fourth quarter, but a recession might ultimately be necessary to get a handle on inflation.

I have no mixed feelings here. It was morally right for the policeman to donate. He is employed by the Canadian government, but they were doing immense evil in requiring the dangerous and ineffective toxxine for all truckers. He was trying to do something about that evil.

In Trudeau’s Canada, male teachers can walk around with massive fake boobs and nipples showing to their students, but kids who aren’t vaccinated can’t go to college.

How embarrassing

The ‘freedom convoy’ will keep driving our politics

The so-called “freedom convoy” that blocked Parliament Hill and several Canada-U.S. border crossings may have dispersed earlier this year, but it won’t be leaving our political conversation anytime soon.

https://www.blacklocks.ca/repeal-followed-bad-polling/

Repeal Followed Bad Polling
Cabinet began repealing Covid mandates within weeks of being warned in a pollsters’ report the measures were unpopular and divisive, records show. “Some felt they had lost their sense of trust in the federal government,” said an internal report: “Participants were of the view vaccine requirements had been largely harmful.”

Patrick says

freedom convoy wasnt armed and threatening to murder them. i noticed elites don’t respect peaceful anything, they just disregard it as unimportant.

Trudeau's public safety minister, Marco Mendicino, says invoking the Emergencies Act was justified to squash the Freedom Convoy protest because truckers were potential rapists.

https://www.rebelnews.com/tags/public_order_emergency_commission

Public Order Emergency Commission
An independent commission of inquiry is investigating Trudeau's use of the Emergencies Act, a form of martial law he deployed to counter the peaceful truckers' protests in Ottawa and across the country.

Right, the criminal Canadian government officials are going to investigate themselves? We all know how that's going to turn out.

As it turns out, the only real violence that happened, according to the testimony of Zexi Li, the woman who was behind the injunction to end the honking of air horns was egg-throwing from people she knew at the truckers. Tho, they didn't get mischief charges and accounts seized.

Justin Trudeau's case against the Freedom Convoy falls on its face
How are our elected officials who purvey what can only be called misinformation be held to account? ...

One has to ask, how are our elected officials who purvey what can only be called misinformation or even disinformation be held to account? Recall, that the commission has no power to sanction the Trudeau government, even if the report finds that invoking an emergency was unjustified and did not meet the necessary legal threshold. With his effective majority in Parliament, thanks to Jagmeet Singh and the NDP, Trudeau could simply put the report on a shelf to gather dust. Yet, the public has been witness to nothing less than a debunking of the official narrative. Will they be satisfied with inaction after the commission files its report?

However things play out, public trust in our officials and our media establishment has been damaged, and that’s not good for Canadian democracy.

Alas, "things are not getting done" is not a sufficient legal requirement to invoke martial law.

The Emergencies Act requires a grave danger to Canadians or the country itself, that no other law can handle.

The Liberals know they illegally invoked martial law.

Canada's largest newspaper (and largest recipient of Trudeau's journalism bail-out) says about a peaceful protest: we must "make sure it doesn't return".

Are there other political groups that the Star says shouldn't have freedom of speech or assembly?

Or just Trudeau's enemies?

"Becoming clear"?

WTF? It was clear from the moment police were beating the peaceful protestors and the government was locking their bank accounts.

The only ‘extreme’ and ‘racist’ behaviour at the convoy was from the govt/police themselves, who ganged up on me, beat me, ripped off my turban etc.

The freedom convoy was nothing but love and Oneness. Mainstream media will never show this.

PM @JustinTrudeau doesn't want you to know how he is viewed abroad.

British Tory MP @danny__kruger told the UK parliament last week that the Liberal government was among the "worst offenders" alongside China when it came to depriving civil liberties during Covid-19.

Trudeau was hoping to get Canada’s own January 6 event during the Convoy. He did everything he could to provoke it, including the Emergencies Act. His lapdog media pretended it was a violent insurrection.

It was just a festive and peaceful protest.

How did someone who has ethics end up working for a Canadian government intelligence agency? You'd think such people would be screened out immediately, as they are in the US.
