Canadian Truckers Convoy 2022 - The Leaf calls you a Nazi as he gasses you

[Stoneheart]

Gotta wonder what the manpower situation of the RCMP is right now. How many reserves do they have available?

that looks like a tiny amount of riot cops.

Eh. No shields. No special equippment. That is certainly the riot squad, but without the extra gear they're just using their presence to deter any escalation from anyone not the government.

they arent enough for their normal tactics.

 

[Lord Xenu]

Did anyone post this yet? As heard on /pol/

I honked my horn today
To see if I still hear
I focus on the sounds
That perforate my ears

The trucker's blare their horns
My kitty shits the bed
The cops won't do a thing
I wish that I was dead

Everybody here
Is nazi scum
I'll stand in front of them
and i'll turn down my thumb

And you can have them all
Every street in Ottawa
I will leave you deaf
I will make you honk

I wear my 3-ply mask
Locked inside my room
These infernal horns
Are the soundtrack to my doom

All across the globe
The mandates dissapear
But not where i live yet
the science is different here

I just fucking heard
the loudest honk
No way this can't go on
2 weeks is too long

And you can have it all
My empire of clowns
They will leave you deaf
In honks you all will drown

If I was Justin T
I'd run a million miles away
So i could hide in fear
Of what the people say.

Most of the time, their normal tactics consist of standing around looking scary.

So, I am trying to wrap my head around the historical consequences of this, and I think Trudeau and the Liberals are seriously underestimating the live wire this moment in Canadian history represents. Mild Powerlevel, History was my primary field of collegiate study, and part of that was studying World War 1 and the break up of the British Empire. As part of that I had the distinct pleasure of attending a lecture by a visiting Professor of Canadian history.

One of the major points he kept going back too was that despite having a history as long as the United States, the Canadian nation never really got "That defining moment" that really crystallized its identity as a nation. For the USA it was the Signing of the Declaration of Independence. For Canada it was...a long series of economic and diplomatic disputes with England that ultimately ended in a gradual separation de facto, but not du jure. After all, the Queen of England is still Queen of Canada and "technically" Trudeau still works for her in a subordinate position.

This in my mind was the Genesis of Trudeau's braindead comment that there is no "Core Canadian Identity". its also been the source of frequent cultural angst between Canadians and Americans, where the running joke is Canada is "America Lite". Correct me if I am wrong here, but I believe this is the largest civil "insurrection" in Canadian history. I can't think of a single larger incident. And the patriotic fervor behind it is also incredibly abnormal. I've never seen so many Canadian Flags in one place before either. Hell, even the Canada Goose has been adopted as a national symbol.

This might actually be the Canadian "Moment" that that historian all those years ago commented Canada has always lacked. If it is, then Trudeau is literally playing with fire if he thinks he can control this or snuff it out. National pride is a dangerous thing, especially when its tasted for the first time.

"This isn't what they meant by Roaring '20s."

Hah. Thanks reddit, for giving us more white pills.

 

[draggs]

Lots of cops gathered all together in Toronto.

As an American the difference between what is a lot of cops here and in Canada is funny somehow

In America a lot of cops is like 5x that amount minimum all of them robocopped out and ready to rumble

So funny more like happy laugh because there are still places like Canada in the world and that's good

 

[potato in mah painus]

Is Trudeau really going to rip the mask off of all that PR to show that he is a craven power hungry tyrant? That upon being actually challenged he opened fire upon citizens? That the benevolent Canadian government will kill any that do not agree?

Canada is well underway in a soft revolution that most sane and sensible leaders would step down over. If he wants to maintain power that mask is going to have to come off and even that may not have the desired results.

 

[Fliddaroonie]

So. I'm a Britfag. Don't wanna PL too much or derail, but the town I live in, there's a few trucks parked up nearby, blocking a route into/out of the place, honking away merrily.
Not sure if related to all this as I've not been out to look properly, I can just see the lights and hear the hooooonnnnkkkks in the distance. If I pop out later today I'll stop by and see what's the deal with it all.

You give way too much credit to Canada. I pray you're correct, but in all likelihood Canadians will cuck out at most institutional levels. The country is just too far gone. This is way more likely to be the last gasp against the neoliberal Canadian order imposed from above than the opening roar of Canadian nationalism birthed from the bottom.

More on Vancouver:

Media is and has been portraying this protest convoy as anti-healthcare and anti-healthcare workers. Healthcare workers were "warned" not to wear scrubs or IDs or engage with protesters. The number of signs from counter-protesters with something about supporting healthcare was enormous. No one in the convoy was anti-anything other than anti-tyranny. The media gayops are really working out in liberal-heavy Vancouver, because there's no indication that the counter groups have any understanding of what the convoy was about or even what is at stake. The sheer number of regular citizens out today was amazing and inspiring.

Correct me if I am wrong here, but I believe this is the largest civil "insurrection" in Canadian history. I can't think of a single larger incident.

The closest thing I can think of is the Rebellions of 1837–1838, but this thing could potentially be bigger than those, depending on how things shake out. I guess it also depends on how you're defining "Canadian history," since 1837-1838 was pre-Confederation.

You may have seen the following Patriote flag (or a similar plain one that just looks like the Hungarian flag) being flown pretty frequently in Ottawa:

AKA Le Vieux de '37; it's a direct reference to the 1837 Lower Canada Rebellion. It's not really an edgelord thing for Quebeckers to be flying it though, it's a generally popular flag among Quebec nationalists, and you see it around.

The salt from r/ottawa on Pierre's announcement is quite entertaining.

Pierre Poilievre is running for Prime Minister now. Gotta say, I like that opener line. "I’m running for Prime Minister to give you back control of your life." Nice and catchy.

Parliamentary history has plenty of guys who got buggered by something like this either immediately or at the next election which is always sooner than expected

Justin-kun could be another sure

Their salt is making me like Pierre more and more. I’ll be sure to vote for him next election so long as he keeps his principals

Gonna disagree only because the moment I was forced to read Fukuyama's "End of History" I immediately threw it against the wall. So much of the triumphalism of the people who claim to be on the right side of history comes from a fundamentally utopian vision of their own superiority. And nothing is more superior then to claim that history has stopped and there is nothing more for us then the endless present of monetary pursuit and an integrated global mass.

Nothing I have seen since I had the misfortune of being subjected to that retards ideas has convinced me otherwise. Just look at how absolutely deranged the mere act of showing up has made the people in charge. They have no conceptual framework for this, and its BREAKING them. Their ideology is weak, and their power is meaningless because they have forgotten the fundamental truth of power. Power belongs to those who are willing to fight for it.

So I suppose we shall now see who wants it more.

This is why they need some elders. Also I only read half the article but sounds like they were salty a different tribe was doing the ceremony hence violating their territory.

Welp, go get the tomahawks.

I think the lefts protesting is backfiring since they feel like it is an obligation. A job. It is their job to go out for whatever cause is in vogue this month.

Actually, it is probably their version of church. That protests are a sacred ceremony and to have truckers profane it is beyond the pale.

Probably zero. Look at Trudeau. He's the face of globalism. Of the new liberal order. He's like a harmless Tom Cruise. He's here to help.

Is Trudeau really going to rip the mask off of all that PR to show that he is a craven power hungry tyrant? That upon being actually challenged he opened fire upon citizens? That the benevolent Canadian government will kill any that do not agree?

Just cancel the fucking mandates. After the protests, everyone prob has spread whatever they can and prob a ton of niggas catching chlamydia now on top.

It's seriously a moot point now. I mean, why not? If the cities pushs back now, it's seriously only out of spite at this point.

if I was the international THEM! behind Trudy I'd be very concerned about him caving
there's already some movement in other countries in support of this, seems if there was a win it could spread

Thinking back I recall in some of the general chatter threads, like Biden/Trump Megathreads or the WuFlu ones that a scenario that was brought up more than once was how completely fucked a government would be if truckers rose up.

 

[MirrorNoir]

The funny thing is Trump could have used the emergency act to stop the riots. He didn't for whatever reason. This idiots on the other hand want to come down hard after just 2 weeks without any real damage to property or deaths? True colors are shown faster then you think

He didn't because he realized the point of the race riots; to basically corner Trump into a no-win situation where if he did nothing, he'd be scapegoated for the race riots by Democrats. If he DID declare martial law, the military cuntfaces who were secretly against him would have refused and join with the Democrats to stage a military coup to remove Trump and his supporters from office on the basis that "Trump was trying to abolish democracy and declare himself dictator" and worse, the Democrats would have cart blanch to arrest ANYONE who ever opposed them or said anything critical about them up to and including the entire GOP both federally and on the state level.

Trump ultimately did nothing, which he leveraged as the lesser evil on the belief that their blind support for the riots would backfire on the Democrats; never expecting that the Democrats would just STEAL the election as far as them knowing that the riots were going to make it impossible for them to win fair and square.

The worrying thing is I believe that Canada is actually on a faster track to some form of civil conflict then the US. While Canada had long term compromise that has kept things peaceful for a long time. When you look at the protests you can see a sizeable Shrill and ideologically fervent group of people counter protesting demanding things change.
The people running the show are fundamentally weak people. They're also dangerous because they will do anything to keep onto power.

If you look at the death of US nationalism you can see Canadian nationalism is flourishing and despite Trudeau's grand game of remain globalist he's going up against an unstoppable force.

This is why compared to 10 years ago there are less US flags and more state flags flying on people's homes. That sentiment is getting filled in the power vacuum. You can't unite everyone behind the free market world as an ideology anymore.

Canada is a stable nation but things can go to shit very quickly.

Someone before said there was a 4chan post about Trudeau yelling at Biden about this situation. Anyone have a link?
