This makes me think of when I chose to live in a city environment. All the noise you mention was there, along with the added bonus of an MD-500 police heli orbiting constantly over the complex where I lived on the weekends. I expected it, and didn't mind it at first, but after a year or so I'd had enough.
No amount of bitching and complaining on my part would ever silence the inherent noise of the city, and since I'd decided I didn't want to deal with it anymore, I packed up my shit and moved to a place more to my liking.
I know I'm preaching to the choir when I say these whining assholes in Ottawa are smaller examples of a larger group. That group would rather sit on their hands, do nothing of real consequence, and blame their perceived bad situation on everyone else rather than taking responsibility for their own lives and making hard decisions that in the end could give them a better quality of life.
I can't help but wonder how these people would react to such common events like changing a flat tire in bad weather (or good for that matter), or any number of more serious challenges that life throws at you.

"THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City of Ottawa enter into discussions with the Federal Minister of Public Safety to determine whether the Emergencies Act can be invoked at this time."
Well, I won't say that I didn't see this coming because the writing was on the wall for days with how everyone with their panties (recall that adult diapers are apparently out off stock or hard to come by in and around Ottawa, am I rite?) in a twist over this protest was asking for this kind of intervention without naming it outright-but shit.
If this does end up happening then it's as the saying goes: "like father, like son" I guess.

I agree that we're in the middle of some grand global manifestation of the Boy Who Cried Wolf, with respect to public trust of health authorities, but it is worth bearing in mind that literally none of the anti-covid tactics that they have deployed actually work; some of them are completely unprecedented, and some outright counterproductive. For example, the reason boosters are getting shilled so hard is because they found out the vaccine efficacy declines over time, and does not merely return to baseline immunity, but actually continues declining into the negative given enough time. It lends itself to a subscription model of needing to regularly consoom product from Pfizer, because otherwise your immune system gets nerfed.
Consider lockdowns:
Traditionally, there were quarantines. The name comes from an ancient practice, where arrivals by boat would be expected to wait forty days on their boat in the harbour (quarante is 40 in French). The longstanding premise of quarantine was to separate those who were sick from society, such that they could not spread their contagious sickness to others. One old example of this would be leper colonies. The name of the game was separation of the sick from the general population.
Total lockdowns invert that, so that authorities are trying to separate the general population from those who may be sick. Not only does this policy have disastrous knock-on effects in terms of personal psychology, the economy, social wellbeing of individuals, etc etc, but it is in itself an absurd proposition, because a total lockdown is either impossible or unbelievably impractical.
One of the standard lockdown formats was that people are no longer allowed to do anything fun, morale-boosting, or related to socializing, but everyone was still permitted to go to grocery stores. There was a period in my area where one could face fines of thousands of dollars if the police caught your vehicle at the trailhead of a hiking spot. UV kills coronaviruses within seconds, and outdoor winds whisk it away from others anyway, which is why outdoor activities are thought to always be safe. Meanwhile, in a big box store with no windows and not-great ventilation, airborne coronaviruses (which they refused to acknowledge as real for like a year, despite it being known pretty well immediately) can linger in the air for days and still potentially infect other shoppers. As another example of how this spreads, you may recall that everyone was freaking out about cruise ships very early on in the pandemic, like early 2020. This was a problem because SARS-CoV-2 is airborne, and so if there's one coofer on the ship, then that gets picked up into the air vents and spread to everybody onboard. My apartment building has the same issue. The way the ventilation works, heated air from outside is blown into the hallways on each floor, which then enters each apartment via the doors, leaving the unit through an escape vent. Thus if there is one coofer in the building passing through the hallways, everyone in the building gets it (which is what happened; you could hear endless coofing from other units for a time, but now everyone is naturally immune so it never happens anymore).
All this to say that if a government had the singular goal of implementing a total lockdown, they would need to completely eliminate visits to any store, including grocery stores, and they would probably need to build a bunch of trailer parks to house all the urbanites who live in apartments/condominiums. Everyone would have to stop working, except for a core workforce of people who do contactless deliveries to the trailer park concentration camps. The virus is so contagious that the retarded half-measures that they've been using for the last two years do basically nothing.
Just look at comparisons of jurisdictions that have been doing severe lockdowns like Quebec, versus areas that have upheld people's freedoms, like Florida. For a closer comparison, you can also look at the outcomes of different Swiss Cantons with radically different covid policies. A recent Johns Hopkins study found that whether or not a place locks down affects the death rate by 0.2%. That number is insanely small for how much pain has been inflicted as a means to that absurd end goal. It is clearly NOT worthwhile.

Consider mandatory masks:
The masks do not work. That Canada is still subject to mandatory masks on the auspices of some kind of scientifically proven epidemiological value is patently absurd. There was a period very early in the pandemic, with footage of people dropping dead on the street in China etc, where the elites were having a meltdown about supplies. They did not have enough effective masks, such as N95s, to go around through all of society, so they decided to hoard N95s or better (such as the P100), for medical staff. They demonized anyone who would dare use a mask that worked, as taking limited supply away from the medical workers who need it most (after Trudeau sent all of Canada's emergency PPE supply to China as a gift for Wuhan).
Then they pivoted from "Wash your hands, masks make you sick," to "Buy surgical masks, or make your own cloth mask as a fun quarantine Arts & Crafts project!" It was pretty well-known then, and it is absolutely proven now, that fomite transmission of SARS-CoV-2 is basically non-existent. You do not need to wear surgical masks or cloth masks that are designed to catch spit particles that may fly out of your mouth while talking, because transmission is nearly 100% airborne. Thus what you need is not a mask that catches your spit, but rather a filter mask that stops airborne virions from coming into your body. There is also a remote chance of airborne coronaviruses entering your system via your eyes and ears, so a very covid-responsible person would be wearing sealed goggles and earplugs as well.
Everyone wearing N95s or better has numerous issues. First, most plebs are too dumb to properly wear even a cloth mask, wearing it under the nose etc. I think in a lot of cases, this was not understandable malicious compliance, but rather a lack of understanding about what the mask is supposed to do from sincere covid scientism cultists. How do you think these people would manage in terms of proper compliance with a more advanced mask type, for example dealing with negative pressure tests when putting one on? How do you think people would manage with the financial burden of having to constantly purchase supplies of filter masks? I regularly see people going around with surgical masks that are clearly filthy, as if they have been using the same one during this whole plandemic period. Not only is that disgusting and unhealthy with a surgical mask, akin to wearing the same piece of underwear for two years straight, except you're introducing filth into your respiratory system, but it is also impossible with an N95. First, they are not designed to be worn all the time. Wearing N95s all day everyday can cause low blood oxygen and brain damage. Because they are tight filters, they gradually clog with dust, and it gets harder and harder to breathe through them. In the very least, they probably ought to be replaced daily.
But nobody is considering any of this. It all reeks of a cargo cult. People do things, but they have no idea why they are doing them. In the first weeks of the pandemic, sometimes you would see people wearing N95s, but they would be too stupid to properly put it on, which involved two elastics that go over the back of your head, so they would leave the bottom elastic and thus the bottom half of the mask loose, nullifying any possible filtration power of the mask for lack of seal. As another example, sometimes I see morons wearing two masks, an N95 and a surgical mask, probably because they saw it on TV or something. But it's cargo cult shit too, because they have no idea why they are doing it, and so they do it wrong. The whole point of wearing a surgical mask and an N95 is due to that aforementioned dust; if you wear a disposable surgical mask over your N95, you can prolong the life of the N95 by filtering out some of the dust, ie it's a tactic for when filter mask supplies are running thin. But then I see someone at the grocery store who is doing it backwards, with a surgical mask on the inside and the N95 outside.
In the earliest days of the pandemic, I thought the public health people were being ridiculous when they were telling everyone "Don't wear a mask, masks make you sick!" I have since reassessed my stance. High end masks do work, but it is simply too complicated to wear them properly, and when deployed improperly, there is a real potential to make you sick, perhaps seriously. Low end masks, such as surgical masks or cloth masks, are both epidemiologically utterly useless, and present a minor health risk if not frequently replaced or washed.
Everyone knows the masks are a joke. No one in their right mind would be okay with walking into an Ebola ward, or other dangerous disease, with just a cloth or surgical mask, but people are okay going to the grocery store in what might as well be a Niqab because, whatever their political alignment, they know in their heart of hearts that Covid-19 is a big nothingburger.
A theory I subscribe to, as for why the mask bullshit is still happening, is that it has nothing to do with health per se, but it is an imposition or reminder like how the Manchu imposed the queue haircut upon the Chinese. Not only is putting on a mask when you go out an act of personal submission to TPTB, but you are also visibly showcasing your submission to TPTB to others when you wear a mask in public. It's a demoralization thing, because even if you might be a dissenter deep down, you go outside having just submitted to masking yourself, seeing everyone else masked, and you think "Fuck, everyone else is okay with this, it must just be me..." I think this is a major reason why TPTB are freaking out so hard about this trucker stuff. All the dissidents and malcontents are suddenly able to see each other again, to encourage each other and to know they are not alone.

TL;DR
It is okay that the boy has cried wolf, because nothing they have used this round to contain a future, serious pandemic would be useful anyway. Nearly everything they did this time seemed centred around either suppressing panic in the early days, or later consolidating power/wealth, with little to nothing actually to do with public health outcomes. If "The Big One" comes, it will be on YOU to take care of yourself; shit from government and media will all be disinfo, as always. I do not see any scenario where it should ever be required to obey them for public health reasons. Just take care of yourself and the people you love.

It's retarded to say covid's made-up and fake, but it's even more retarded that governments think it's a valid excuse to make huge, sweeping violations of privacy, laws, and rights to "fight" it, in this case fighting it by, well, violating privacy, laws, and rights. Apparently domestic espionage flattens the curve or something.

I mean they understand the concepts of things like ventilation. Most of the guys who work and drive and tow rigs have to be self reliant when running these things.
Sure that's the leftist narrative that will be shat out. But at this point the leftists will create camps and put all the un-cooperative in them to their goal. You can't win every optics battle. That being said the cry of antis fascism is harder to justify if people see their own governments repress perfectly reasonable speech and quell dissent like fascists did. WW2 and it's evils broke the western spirt and well we've tried so hard to be anti fascist that the west is collectively destroying itself.
I wonder how many people in Michigan will begin to form a convoy on the other side and cross the border bridge in solidarity.
Yeah Detroit is part of the dying rust belt republicans will be having their jobs as the old guys die out and see replaced by rednecks and black people who aren't part of the Detroit machine which incidentally is moving out of Detroit. Once you get past the dying city aspect plenty of fun can be had especially during night with it's rave scene.
Once again reddit is blown the fuck out of the water.
Translation end the fucking mandates and bs COVID policy before we get our jobs lost.
Look at the that moral boost there are more of us then them now'sthe time not hold the line but push. Once this is done let's start culling airport security and reevaluating the need for over protectionism.

I like that they keep talking about it being an occupation, that the truckers want to terrorize people blah blah blah when the organizers have said like 5 times they just want to start up a dialogue with the govt but they keep getting ignored.
Like I get they're not wanting to give legitimacy to the trucker movement, but they're acting like they've been given no choice when they haven't even bothered to hear them out lol

Sure. You're not wrong, but a trend with a lot of government buildings in Truckistan is that the daycares are all in places that would maximize loss of life if someone took action against the government, in places that defy the innate laziness of human nature. Those daycares were positioned intentionally, and there's only one logical conclusion as to why a government official would make that decision.

Watching the stream right now. This lady is nuts.
I recommend people at least watch the stream, or if someone could clip the sections later. It's one thing to read her nonsense, but to hear her words makes you realize how totally bonkers she is.
(residents are complaining about a thing happening in what she claims is a nonresidential area?)
