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

I don't know, ask the giant majority of truckers who got vaccinated.
If you'd actually read anything the truckers wrote or heard what they said (other than what the literally government controlled Canadian media tells you), you'd know that almost all the truckers protesting are vaccinated.
 
So disrupting people's livelihoods is fine as long as it doesn't upset urbanites who need their beauty sleep I guess.
How about having the government negotiate with the people who've had their livelihoods taken away for two years rather than using a sound disturbance to justify police violence
I say respect your fellow countrymen regardless if they live in the rurals, suburbia, or the city. And if you refuse to accept the fact the people in the city you're bothering are humans too and deride them to the officers as 'urbanites' then, well, hope you enjoy the taste of baton.
 
Well it depends on what you see as a police state, when I first read about these conveys, I first thought they were funny. I thought it was just going to be some protestors who roam around, shitting and pissing everywhere. But after speaking with some Canadians who I like to think I'm on friendly terms with, apparently the honking isn't that fun for the civilians when it's been reaching decibels harmful to human earing, causing sleep deprivation to people who otherwise just want to go to work and live, instead of what the thread initially lead me to believe as just 'annoying.' Not only that, but many of these fags have been blocking roads, disrupting local businesses, you know, small stores which rely on a steady flow of customers (surely you care for them with how you kept crying about how covid lockdown hurt them so much). One lady even disrupted and stood atop the tomb of the unknown soldier, like how much of an ass you have to be to do that.

So in my eyes, I wouldn't call what's going on a police state, rather a civil society executing the enforcement of law and order against retards who are disrupting public life and being overall a nuisance.
According to Summer of Love apologists, "making the lives of innocent 3rd parties a living hell for political goals" is acceptable R.O.E. Don't throw a shitfit when the wrong people adopt them. Just as the newly-proclaimed Eternal Emergency will be, sooner or later.

"Love the city people or take the baton, bumpkin"

Like you, I eagerly await the machine gunning of injuns at the next pipeline riot
 
I've even got screencapped. I find it extremely homo that it's ok for them to shit up their own thread with political sperging instead of just laughing at anti-vax tards.
I would laugh too if we're not at a stage where Feds break glass windows and run over grandmas with horses all because of inhumane mandates. Bring me back to the psycho Indiana Karen moms who blame their kids smothering death on vaccines, please.
Just wait till Canada implements a national social credit system. They won't even need to invoke emergency powers at that point. All the protesters would need to do is watch their social credit score drop down low enough until they're cut off from their bank accounts - just for the low credit score - and kicked out of their homes.
That's already happening in the West. The EA only makes it legal. If they have decided you donated to the wrong cause, you can kiss your livelihood goodbye. You are the wrong sort of terrorist - if you were like Omar Khadr, you'd get money FROM the government. Anything that is not backed by the government is deemed a threat. This is also why both Canada and the US are also going after crypto, too.
Does anybody member the time some protestors built a physical structure at parliament and instead of invoking the Emergencies Act JT went out and actually went inside the teepee to meet with the protestors and presumably this painting was made specifically to commemorate what happened?

Or when he kneeled for BLM, masked up, and made a speech on how racism was bad?

Those were protests the Regime approved of. Normiefags should have learned by now that their protests will never be allowed. You will never see protests like this for immigration, for example.
This thread has a lot of retardation, but I want to thank those posting and archiving all the videos and shit.

I usually stop by happening threads once in a while to remind all the libertarians and autists to stop being soy, so I guess I'll give it a go again:

Warning: This is not doomposting, but it is a post telling you that you probably need to stop being smug and make decent changes in your mentality if you do feel like any of this is doomposting.

The Governments literally have no responsibility to follow their own rules, only to enforce them on you. I still see people say shit like "The law says this so that's where we we stump the gov" or "they can't do that to the truckers". They can, they will, a piece of paper will not save you. Do not rely on laws, but rather your ability and logistics. The truckers have been pretty good with the logistics part which is why this even lasted so long, but I get tired of seeing people saying shit here like "they can't do x" or "the law says they have to do y". Stop.


Canadian police are in military grade gear: Plate Carriers, armed with AR-15s, ballistic helmets, etc. Note D.C.'s own plans with the US convoy and using the National Guard. Note how the Left treats protesters they don't like so far vs how the right did with BLM: If the truckers stop the police advance, the police will start the tear gas. If they get through the tear gas, they will get the batons. If they fight back against the battons, they will go for their guns. This isn't a doomerism, but just a reminder that if you are someone who really stands for this and feel compelled to join in or even just stand your ground in the future, do not expect any restraint from them. Be ready and if you care at all, you probably shouldn't be a fat slob who is eating a big mac while reading this. Americans be thankful you can still buy shit like gas masks and plate carriers.

Stop caring about optics. I say this everytime but everyday I see people crying about optics. If you are scared to be labeled shit by your enemies, you may be autisitic. For all case and point, protests like BLM and the FC are modern day wars. mankind is too weak and disarmed for actual conflict, so this is what we are left with, and just like how you would see japs drawn as gorilla's in WW2 posters, you will be called a nazi/terrorist by the left, so stop being scared of "looking bad". This is not a call to violence, but rather a thinking exercise: Think of the cause and effect outcome of the following, i do not condone any of this, but simply think to yourself what would happen and the consequences: What would change between now and if the truckers fought back? if the truckers were armed? if the truckers left? if they and came back? All options with entirely different outcomes, but consider what would change in each case.


Plz stop judging things by right or wrong with logic and other ben shapiro-isms. If it hurts the left, it is good. if it helps them, it's bad. bottom line. Look at how BLM is cheering the cops on, look at how they don't rationalize any of this logically and just look at if it's us or them that gets fucked. This is why they win culturally. Stop giving them leeway. Stop compromising with them. Stop being nice them them. And never, ever, forgive them.
That's not doom posting. That's rationality. People need to stop being nice. Conservatives think playing things by naivety and nicety will make them better morally thank Leftists. Think of the 'I don't see race' types. Well, that didn't stop BLM blacks from torching your neighborhoods and murdering your white children, now did it? It isn't stopping the waves upon waves of migrants at the border, who will never be deported, now did it? It never stopped vaccine mandates, it never stopped government overreach. They think being the 'better man' will score them a win.

This is why conservatives lose. The Left doesn't care about that. All they care about is power. They will test the limits and draw new lines in the sand that they'll keep crossing.

The state has decided the truckers must be destroyed. It only took 72 hours for their assets to be seized, people to be doxxed, and Freeland to act smug that they will never be ordinary citizens again. Now faced with mercenary cops beating people in the street, what do they do?

Get on their knees and beg them to stop. To join them. They learned NOTHING from 2020, holy fuck. The cops only kneeled for BLM because it wasn't a threat to the regime. They'll crack your kneecaps because you ARE.

Moses never asked Ramses to stop. Jesus never asked the Romans to stop. Have some fucking dignity.
Really couldn't have said it better myself.
The only thing I'd add is that if your opponent is calling you a Nazi - i.e. "a generic enemy that must be killed" - then don't brush it off as if it is an insult that doesn't mean anything. It does mean something. It means you're on their "send to gulag" list.
More or less. When they say it, they mean it. When ANTIFA stabbed people and beat people over the head, it's because what they believe they are doing is right.

Being 'nice' never worked with those who want to destroy you.
Kinda surprised a trucker has not gone insane with rage and jackknifed into a building.

i know if someone told me the feds freezed my bank account, canceled my CDL/licensing, impounding my truck, giving me jail time and finally killing my pets or trying to take my kids away, I would not take it well.
It's bait. Someone will take it. But they're doing it for politics. And they'll get away with it. The truckers will go into the night, and things will go full Stasti/Utsase (sic) style.
 

For the last three weeks, the so-called Freedom Convoy of truckers in protest of vaccine mandates has shaken Canada, blocking vital U.S.-Canada supply routes. The convoy has even driven similar movements across the Atlantic with “Convoi de la Liberté” in France, where protesters have forgone trucks for motorcycles and cars.

Though Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s rare enactment of the Emergencies Act on Feb. 14 has more or less extinguished the protests, the influence of Canada’s oft-ignored far-right movement remains. With reports of Confederate and Nazi flags flying, its presence in the convoy is difficult to ignore.

However, the present protests are hardly the beginning of the far right’s history in Canada. Vaccine mandates mark the latest rallying point for Canada’s right-wing movements, which, pre-COVID, were only loosely affiliated by their anti-government views and largely lacking the steam of those across its southern border.

U.S. News reached out to Frédéric Boily, a professor and researcher of Canadian right-wing and populist movements at the University of Alberta’s Campus Saint-Jean – a francophone institution – for insight on the political landscape and how the recent protests might affect the trajectory of the country’s far right. The following interview, conducted mostly in English, has been edited for length and clarity.

According to protesters, the “Freedom Convoy” began as a challenge to vaccine mandates for truckers. However, it seems like right-wing groups latched on. Is this a fair characterization, or are such groups instead a core aspect of the convoy? How has a minority in Canada managed to make such noise?

During the first moment of the convoy, yes, the vaccine mandate was the focal point. But after, especially in Ottawa in the first weekend of the protest, we saw many people join, and the vaccine mandate at some point vanished (as a main issue). It's now a large protest – ideologically large – against all mandatory measures by the government, the federal government and provincial governments.

It's not just right-wing radicals … This protest has two faces, though presently, it’s probably more radical people.

The great majority of Canadians think that the truck convoy must end, but at the same time, many people are very critical of Justin Trudeau because he – in French, we have this expression, “jeter de l’huile sur le feu” (to throw oil on the fire). Many people, like me, say that Justin Trudeau a jeté de ‘l'huile sur le feu (threw oil on the fire) – probably for politically partisan reasons because Conservative members of parliament at the beginning of the protest supported the convoy truckers, especially in Saskatchewan and British Columbia.

Many perceive Canada as being a fairly tolerant country. In your view, are most people outside of the country even aware of the far-right presence there?

The far right in the story of Canadian political history – it's always been present, even before the protest. I'm not sure it's very powerful. It’s very organized. The other problem is the fact that some people in the protest are not necessarily extreme right. For example, the right in Western Canada is not extreme. It's just an autonomist regionalist right. It's an old idea in the Western provinces.

Why was Ottawa the focal point of the protests?

It's a good question. First of all, because of Trudeau himself (particularly, the presence of himself as well as his government there). He has a bad reputation in the Western provinces, especially on the right. It's a long story with his father (Pierre Trudeau) and the National Energy Program in the 1980s. When Justin Trudeau went to Ottawa (Canada’s capital city) to form the government, many people said, "It's a new Trudeau with socialism, against the energy sector and with environmental laws against Alberta and Saskatchewan.” It's why the convoy – the first convoy – is from the Western provinces.

You spoke recently in l’Opinion about a “deepening ideological proximity between certain strains of the Canadian and American radical right.” Where does the “Freedom Convoy” fit into this narrative of shared far-right movements between the countries?

It's a big question in Canada – in politics – the proximity of the Canadian right to the American right and has been for 50 years, probably. With social media, conspiracy theories, it's clear we have some ties. We have the impression that the movement received funds from the U.S. and probably from other countries. At the moment, in my opinion, it's not clear – the importance of this funding from the U.S.

The particularity of this ongoing protest is the political recuperation by the U.S. right. For example, Fox News with Tucker Carlson featured a trucker, [Former U.S. President Donald] Trump and other people in the family of Trumpism support this movement. This is the most important evolution because, in general, Canada imports ideas from the U.S.

On Feb. 14, Prime Minister Trudeau invoked emergency powers to quell protests. Where do you see the convoy going from here?

Probably, the protest will continue for the next few weekends (in places like Quebec or Edmonton where the convoy was primarily a weekend-only affair), but with the Emergencies Act, I think eventually, the last resistance will go home. Maybe with some intervention – not the army.

What does it spell for the future of the far right in Canada?

For the far right, it’s probably not a victory, but certainly a very important moment because it's created the conditions to justify the language against the state – the idea that the state is dictatorial. And in this context, from the ideological point of view, the Emergencies Act is a push for this kind of discourse.
