You think the so called "emergency" just went away 2 days after the Emergencies Act was passed? LOL

He's either trying to flex his political muscle to show, "See, I got it passed easily and I can do it again in the future any f'n time I want you peasants!".

Or, he got called out, his party is freaking out, the banks are PISSED at him for freezing and then forcing them to unfreeze accounts with his obvious overreach while huge amounts of Canadians are withdrawing their money from the banks at the same time and possibly creating a financial collapse because of it.

Truth is, there was no "emergency" that couldn't have been dealt and was dealt with by existing laws. Not a single person was charged with some new law that the Emergencies Act needed. But he has his new puppet Ottawa police chief saying they are going to aggressively pursue these criminals, seize their assets, sell their trucks to pay for the money lost by the small businesses in downtown Ottawa that they told they would reimburse if they shut down during this time. Even though, the businesses that stayed open thrived, didn't have any vandalization or problems that were "reported" to happen, and are now being harassed by the same police for being open and serving the people in downtown Ottawa.

Yeah, he absolutely exposed himself as a Dictator who's puppet strings got pulled back. He's done.

You are claiming that this is my position?

How would he know if the trucks being seized were part of the convoy blocking emergency vehicles or not?

Good question. He's a journalist in Canada. Do you want me to reach out to him on Twitter and ask for you?

Um, the link in his bio on twitter takes you to a site's main page that has Trudeau dressed as Hitler. So, no, don't worry about asking him how he knows this stuff. Thanks for the offer, though.

Around 90% of the truckers in Canada are vaccinated. Conservative politicians, Trudeau added, are simply stoking fear that COVID-19 vaccine mandates for truckers are contributing to supply chain disruptions and fueling inflation.

Truckers not working and blocking the main arteries into the US for a period of time helped supply chain problems?

Hmm.

They've certainly gone down, but it couldn't possibly be because of a different focus on the world? It has to be lack of Twitter in Russia, right?
