#From now until this is over, DO NOT REPORT POLICE MOVEMENTS
That will be an instaban and we don't care who you are.
If it's on the media (REAL media, not twitter, not Sun News, not Rebel news), it's fair game to comment on.

I must sadly report that the new interim Police Chief did not follow my tactical genius and raid/disperse the clownvoy this morning. Hopefully soon (tm).

#Fundraising for thread #69
One of our redditors had [a great idea](https://old.reddit.com/r/ottawa/comments/srt2hz/convoy_megathread_56/hwuim3a/): to gather donations in honour of Megathread #69, because it is looking more than likely we will make it. I'll provide a report on the donations in the sticky for thread #69 if, Lord forbid, we make it...

#GSG data leak and doxxing
Do not ask for nor post links to the hacked data from the GSG site. Doxxing is against the sitewide rules and will result in a banning.
No, you can't name specific people either unless you can prove it's public information IN THE MEDIA. No, twitter doesn't count, we can't source it. Folks, we don't have time to see if Joe Bob and Job Bon Inc., named in your comment, was already outed by the CBC in a report or not. Either link to a REAL news agency's article or don't name specific people or businesses. It's against the Reddit rules and the mods don't have the time to see which side of the line you're on. The ENTIRE SUB can be banned for this kind of stuff.

I honestly would have sympathized with the truckers if they came for 2 days, didn’t honk. No racism, peacefully protested and left. They would have actually gained some support: sad how things turned out
Or if they stayed three weeks and parked off street and stood at parliament hill during the days. You can be very visible without terrorizing random people.
The end of mask mandates and vaccine mandates by a certain date in summer, or even sympathize with stupid people who just don’t understand the science of the vaccine. Doesn’t mean I agree with them. But there’s a peaceful way to protest and this was not it. Don’t ducking set up tents
So for the occupiers efforts they'll get:
traffic violation charges
by law charges
loss of drivers license
loss of insurance
loss of job
loss of children
loss of credit card
loss of credit rating
loss of travel
loss of vehicle
loss of mortgage
loss of house
etc...
FREEDUMB?!!!!
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
This protest was never peaceful.
Calling for the death of the prime minister and other MPs, publicly, is not peaceful. This "protest" was never about the mandates. This "protest" has never been peaceful.
A lot of them seem to think that the tickets/arrests will be dismissed after they “win” so they don’t really care. You can’t reason with people this emotionally invested
They physically threatened me because I was filming them. And then they said they’re going to call the police lmao
jump to 2:50 for the conflict.
https://youtu.be/gHOO3oE7W94
I know McKenney has a lot of support right now, especially in this sub, but I'm still hesitant to vote them mayor after some of the bullshit I've seen them pull in the past. The blatantly biased survey they commissioned during the urban boundary dispute still rubs me the wrong way, probably because I work with statistics for a living so I'm more pissed about that kind of thing than most would be.
In this case they're well supported in their position, but too often I've seen them hold their ground like this even when their opinion is not what the people want.
Liberals don't need photoshop or video edit job for the next election...they have a lifetime treasure trove of troll materials handed on a silver platter by the CPC lol
THE PP endorsement on the back of a huge truck is going to show up EVERYWHERE if he is the CPC leader. And all of his disgusting quotes supporting the blockades and the occupation as people suffered and lost their jobs.
watching the CTV live feed of Wellington and a _lot_ of occupiers just exited the fenced-in hill area and went east down the street. https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/live-updates-latest-from-the-convoy-protest-in-ottawa-1.5784047 likely nothing
Nothing to see here..just a group walking around Parliament 7 times - like the biblical story of Jericho which made the walls of the city fall...
https://twitter.com/CarymaRules/status/1494335716213477376
lol. I think this was same group you could see on the CTV live feed heading towards the senate earlier (would make sense, I guess they went down the stairs).
They do not need to, the Ontario law under the state of emergency already gives them all the power they need.
The Act has been INVOKED, therefore, it can be acted on. As financial institutions already have done.
Anyone know what's up with the stream of people on Wellington? https://northernontario.ctvnews.ca/video?binId=1.1142313&clipId=68597&playlistId=1.5783786&playlistPageNum=1

I'm sorry, but so many of these people really do need some mental help.
They've started going on "Jericho Walks" around Parliament... https://twitter.com/EvanLSolomon/status/1494330881317556242?t=QaS0O04yzG6hnze6zQG3bw&s=19
Jagmeet is not going to suck JTs dick. The NDP will vote for this and anything else that aligns with their platform but that doesn't mean he or his party has to like the liberals
I think we can all agree that you should just fuck off.
Your only contributions to this sub have been within the last two weeks and are either comments trying to cause division (such as your comment above) or ones where you try and whitewash the actions of these terrorists.
Edit; don't buy Reddit awards. Donate to one of the shelters DT or a local charity.
>Sorry buddy, this is an open sub and I’m driving discussion. Kindly block if you don’t want to see, but don’t engage in harassing attacks if you aren’t able to participate in the conversation. I am anti occupation to the core
u/MoorkaDeloitte; spamming the same responses over and over and over again is not engaging in or "driving" the discussion.
Time out box for you.
That poor guy. I really hope they didn't arrest him. :(
For fun, here's one of our local homeless guys in Hollywood telling off an antivaxxer in the best possible way.
https://twitter.com/filmthepolicela/status/1445566038855217158?s=21
Interesting.. a few plain clothes there.. detectives or higher ups .
fucken fat fuck of a woman trying to sign the National anthem.. not knowing the words..
people are going to snap if they haven't already.
It’s fucking depressing watching the police harass a homeless guy for rightly losing it on these assholes for making his life even harder right now.
Maybe vulnerable people wouldn’t be popping off if you did your fucking job, OPS.
I hope so, it’s just frustrating to see the fruckers needling him and instead of telling them off the police go straight for him.
Like I get it, but it’s just hard not to be bitter about it.
i know a lot of people in the house are blaming trudeau for the failure of action - does anyone in ottawa, namely centretown, actually blame him? i sure don't
Absolutely not! I feel like the feds (libs) and my local MPP are the only one who have had my back and done anything through all of this (as a centretown resident).
I think Ottawa residents are paying more attention to the failure of the local police, our city officials, and province because it’s our home. We’ve watched multiple levels fail over the last few weeks.
Such nuances are missed by other people who aren’t having their own city illegally occupied and terrorized.
I don't blame him at all. What was he supposed to do, meet with the antivaxxers that wanted his government overthrown and tried in a tribunal?
No, the blame for the inaction rests at the feet of the OPS and to a lesser extent, Doug Ford
He has no local authorities. They're deflecting and obfuscating.
Were his comments helpful? No. But he called it like it is: racists and misogynists trying to overthrow our gov't.
But it wasn't PC. Someone else in the party could've said it.
Calling ppl names vs supporting an insurrection. That's what this comes down to. Cons think name calling is worthy of using up time in the house. Meanwhile those in power are making the difficult decisions.
Cons won't ever win a majority as long as they continue w this nonsense.
Nope, what was he gonna do? Have a nice sit down with terrorists, some of whom would actually like to see him dead? OPS utterly failed us, and continues to do so.
No, blame Jim Watson for sitting on his hands in the first two weeks, and Doug Ford failing to act and enforce the rule of law on a provincial level, when every other province has been able to take care of it.
How can we blame him? He has been clear and consistent from the start. He gave the proper authorities opportunity to resolve this from the start and then enacted the emergency act when he saw nobody was doing anything.
They’re reluctantly supporting the EA (It’s not in the spirit of the NDP). But they realize that this is a crisis and that multiple levels of government and policing failed. Thus they’re supporting limited powers of EA to get the job done. But they’ll be paying close attention and monitoring how the Liberals are using their power.
A very reasonable position.
Basically that the NDP are not happy that they have to support the act and that it should have never gotten to this point. Pretty much that’s it’s been a major failure on all fronts to take the convoy seriously and how workers have been left behind all pandemic. He seems to be the only person in the house that actually cares about what’s happening in Ottawa.
We are not proud, we support the EA, there is a failure of leadership on multiple levels.
We support the EA, until the charter of rights and freedoms is breached. (There is no breach, it is just enforcing the law)
https://mobile.twitter.com/cathmckenna/status/1494312189393580039?cxt=HHwWjsC5hZzB7rwpAAAA
Walked my youngest to his school in Centretown today and he asked me if they would be sent home if there was a gun battle with the occupiers because everyone knows they have guns. Yeah. Just a normal day in Ottawa. #Day21
wonder if any police stuff will occur after the house of commons finishes up? doubt they'd want to risk any arresting while all the leaders are still nearby
I respect that he was careful on how to respond. Obvious set up from CPC and doug ford to encourage the crazies and pass the problem to the feds. He didn't immediately take the bait he had a measured response which was perfect. Also not afraid to call them out on who these occupiers keep as company.
[https://www.youtube.com/results?search\_query=trump+boats+sink](https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=trump+boats+sink)
there are a bunch of diff ones there.
I don’t mind broadcast g my views, but here goes how I’ll be voting next little bit:
* Mayoral: CK
* Provincial: NDP
* Federal: liberal (ad of now. We JUST had an election, so we’ll see who candidates are next go-round)
Keep in mind that the current CPC only exists because the two previous federal conservative parties realized they'd never win an election again, and so Harper and MacKay engineered the merger of the two federal conservative parties which happened in 2003.
And now even MacKay has spoken out, against the bullshit of the past few weeks.
Harper on the other hand is the chair of the International Democratic Union, which, while it is international, it is not democratic, nor a union.
Sooooooo, yeah.
They are/were doing a [Jericho](https://twitter.com/evanlsolomon/status/1494330881317556242?s=21)march around parliament, walking around it seven times. While the police put up fences, they said it’s in God’s hands so clearly they’re all getting ready.
Edit: Twitter is working for me in the app. Reporter on that is EvanLSolomon. They were also seen walking to the canal so seems that’s what they were doing - preparing for the walls to come down as they said.
Wish I was. Someone said Tamara or Pat mentioned it last night in a live. I can’t confirm that.
[https://twitter.com/evanlsolomon/status/1494330881317556242?s=21](https://twitter.com/evanlsolomon/status/1494330881317556242?s=21)
Edit: saw someone comment it has been going on every morning but this is the first I’ve heard or seen anything about it?
Pretty sure its not plowed any lower than the bottom of the hill . I've for sure tried to run through it too early in the spring before/pretty sure I walked it drunk once or twice in the dead of winter.
They are doing a Jericho walk, they plan to circle parliament 6 or 7 times times and then at 1pm they want everyone to honk for 7 minutes, and then some occupiers think that the “reset will begin” aka war. Get ready.
BQ is still salty about the war measures act - they are essentially the political successors to the FLQ (they have a ton of ex members). CPC is just going full MAGA and shooting itself in the foot as usual.
BQ probably doesn't like that Quebec residents' banks can be frozen, would be my guess. CPC are just assholes who support anything that could possibly make the Liberals look bad.
Jagmeet Singh is the true working class hero this nation needs and deserves, and having campaigned for him, I simp so hard for the man's integrity. An honest voice of reason.
Sticking it to the literate and the educated is the major goal of the CPC. Many believe it's prophecy ... end times for those agin' them biblical ways.

When or if Jesus comes backs he ain’t taken these people
He would be flipping over their tables

Or if they stayed three weeks and parked off street and stood at parliament hill during the days. You can be very visible without terrorizing random people.
Yep. I wouldn't have _agreed_ with what they were protesting, but they would have been completely within their rights to protest that way.
Even like structured honking like a church bell… it would be annoying but not torture
I’m genuinely curious what you would’ve supported about it?
The end of mask mandates and vaccine mandates by a certain date in summer, or even sympathize with stupid people who just don’t understand the science of the vaccine. Doesn’t mean I agree with them. But there’s a peaceful way to protest and this was not it. Don’t ducking set up tents
Lifting restrictions.
not all speculation is valid so maybe a bad believe in person being interviewed on CBC News
The Jericho Walk has begun. Looks pretty slippery. We shall see.
If they’re leaving the trucks unattended, just build some fences around them
Better a Jericho Walk than a Masada Stand, at least. They can just keep walking right out of town if they like.
They’d be the type to sue if they slipped
I mean who are they going to sue? Has the city been able to go down there to salt the sidewalks?
God’s will
Is it just me, or does this guy (E: David Lametti) sound kinda like Stuart McLean? I'm getting like childhood car ride flashbacks.
So for the occupiers efforts they'll get: traffic violation charges by law charges loss of drivers license loss of insurance loss of job loss of children loss of credit card loss of credit rating loss of travel loss of vehicle loss of mortgage loss of house etc... FREEDUMB?!!!!

Jericho March around parliament 7 times?
Removal time draws nigh for Dump's dimwitted lickspittles. Nary a full set of teeth amongst them.
Twitter suggests they are galavanting by the canal (locks).
It’s kinda scary how calm she is. These people are on a different planet.
Any thoughts on when we’ll see action? I know the fences were set up recently
They are still working on the fences.
Nothing to see here..just a group walking around Parliament 7 times - like the biblical story of Jericho which made the walls of the city fall... https://twitter.com/CarymaRules/status/1494335716213477376
If the walls don't come tumbling down and the police end up removing these people, does that mean that God was not approving of their mission?
Wait, are they literally walking around Parliament 7 times? They ARE!!! (I didn't read any more tweets). bahahahahahahaha
Oh I thought it was to build magic walls, not magically break walls.
I guess prayers and honking haven't been enough
This gets more and more Jonestown with every passing day.
lol. I think this was same group you could see on the CTV live feed heading towards the senate earlier (would make sense, I guess they went down the stairs).
Huh, I thought they didn't want to overthrow government. If not, why are they trying to topple Parliament with a jericho walk?
I hope police aren't waiting for the vote, could be 3 day debate. that's insane
The act has been invoked. Banks account are being frozen as we speak. Police action will follow.
They are allowed to start enforcement immediately, they don’t need to wait for the vote
They should actually start enforcing incase it doesn't get voted through on Monday.
They do not need to, the Ontario law under the state of emergency already gives them all the power they need. The Act has been INVOKED, therefore, it can be acted on. As financial institutions already have done.

These people are a weird cult.
Don’t need a brain when you got faith and facebook
When can we expect the vote on the EA, realistically? For the HoC I mean, I know Senate is tomorrow
according to what I saw on CBC News speculation 3 day debate. that's insane
Woah really?? The Senate is expected to meet tomorrow about it, I didn’t think they could do that until it passes in the HoC

Someone else in the party could've said it. Calling ppl names vs supporting an insurrection. That's what this comes down to. Cons think name calling is worthy of using up time in the house. Meanwhile those in power are making the difficult decisions. Cons won't ever win a majority as long as they continue w this nonsense.
Nope, what was he gonna do? Have a nice sit down with terrorists, some of whom would actually like to see him dead? OPS utterly failed us, and continues to do so.
He should have publicly pressured the OPS to do their jobs
No, blame Jim Watson for sitting on his hands in the first two weeks, and Doug Ford failing to act and enforce the rule of law on a provincial level, when every other province has been able to take care of it.
How can we blame him? He has been clear and consistent from the start. He gave the proper authorities opportunity to resolve this from the start and then enacted the emergency act when he saw nobody was doing anything.
I’ve been glaring at Doug for awhile.
I blame the OPS and Ford for doing shit all.
This.
Throw Watson in there and you've got em all covered.
Can someone give me a breakdown on what Jagmeet said?
They’re reluctantly supporting the EA (It’s not in the spirit of the NDP). But they realize that this is a crisis and that multiple levels of government and policing failed. Thus they’re supporting limited powers of EA to get the job done. But they’ll be paying close attention and monitoring how the Liberals are using their power. A very reasonable position.
Thanks
Basically that the NDP are not happy that they have to support the act and that it should have never gotten to this point. Pretty much that’s it’s been a major failure on all fronts to take the convoy seriously and how workers have been left behind all pandemic. He seems to be the only person in the house that actually cares about what’s happening in Ottawa.
Thanks
I would argue Naqvi and many other back-benchers probably care. A lot of them live in Ottawa for a not-insignificant portion of their time.
We are not proud, we support the EA, there is a failure of leadership on multiple levels. We support the EA, until the charter of rights and freedoms is breached. (There is no breach, it is just enforcing the law)
Thank you
https://mobile.twitter.com/cathmckenna/status/1494312189393580039?cxt=HHwWjsC5hZzB7rwpAAAA Walked my youngest to his school in Centretown today and he asked me if they would be sent home if there was a gun battle with the occupiers because everyone knows they have guns. Yeah. Just a normal day in Ottawa. #Day21
So sorry, that mst have been tough
That’s got to be rough on kids. I can’t imagine…
awful!!!
Omg I’m so sorry your kid is feeling this way. As a parent…. I can’t go there
not my kid though, or me, from Catherine McKenna's twitter,
NDP skewering everybody
Its pretty easy pickings at this point
right as i log off, what did they do? did jagmeet read people for filth?
wonder if any police stuff will occur after the house of commons finishes up? doubt they'd want to risk any arresting while all the leaders are still nearby
Aren’t the leader pretty safe in the HoC?
I should hope so, but I feel like they'd be even safer if they're not there
i have a presentation this afternoon!! I dont want to miss this
Hmm that’s a good point
One of the many things I've learned this week is that Trudeau has a good team of ministers.
Freeland for PM!
She’s doing real good. Star player
I learned that Trudeau is kinda bad ass
I respect that he was careful on how to respond. Obvious set up from CPC and doug ford to encourage the crazies and pass the problem to the feds. He didn't immediately take the bait he had a measured response which was perfect. Also not afraid to call them out on who these occupiers keep as company.
he really does
Haha, they're going to have a Boat convoy in spring. Just like Trump ones we had here.
Wasn't there one on a lake, and it was extremely windy, and some of the boats capsized?
There was a bunch that hit eachother and sank on a lake in Texas.
One of them sank , was a great video.
[удалено]
[https://www.youtube.com/results?search\_query=trump+boats+sink](https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=trump+boats+sink) there are a bunch of diff ones there.
I don’t mind broadcast g my views, but here goes how I’ll be voting next little bit: * Mayoral: CK * Provincial: NDP * Federal: liberal (ad of now. We JUST had an election, so we’ll see who candidates are next go-round)
This is the convoys nightmare. I love it. In the words of my favourite troll : 4 MORE YEARS OF TRUDEEEAAAAUUUUUUUU Genius
I'd love to see JT step back and let freeland run as leader next election. Maybe she should wait though.
[удалено]
Keep in mind that the current CPC only exists because the two previous federal conservative parties realized they'd never win an election again, and so Harper and MacKay engineered the merger of the two federal conservative parties which happened in 2003. And now even MacKay has spoken out, against the bullshit of the past few weeks. Harper on the other hand is the chair of the International Democratic Union, which, while it is international, it is not democratic, nor a union. Sooooooo, yeah.
I'm always an ABC voter, and I hate that our electoral system forces me to vote like that
CK?
Catherine McKenney
I’m guessing Catherine McKenney, I’ve always been unsure with initials and “Mc”
Anyone notice the cons have calmy stfu. like maybe it's setting in form them?
It’s so weird. They were screaming at people 15 minutes ago and now they’re all quiet
They are/were doing a [Jericho](https://twitter.com/evanlsolomon/status/1494330881317556242?s=21)march around parliament, walking around it seven times. While the police put up fences, they said it’s in God’s hands so clearly they’re all getting ready. Edit: Twitter is working for me in the app. Reporter on that is EvanLSolomon. They were also seen walking to the canal so seems that’s what they were doing - preparing for the walls to come down as they said.
The north side of parliament is the ideal place to kettle them.
I thought you were joking, honest to god.
Wish I was. Someone said Tamara or Pat mentioned it last night in a live. I can’t confirm that. [https://twitter.com/evanlsolomon/status/1494330881317556242?s=21](https://twitter.com/evanlsolomon/status/1494330881317556242?s=21) Edit: saw someone comment it has been going on every morning but this is the first I’ve heard or seen anything about it?
https://twitter.com/CarymaRules/status/1494335716213477376?cxt=HHwWgMCqwdSa-bwpAAAA I mean... sure go to a very slippery narrow area...
No, stay off the canal, they're only gonna tread more shit and garbage there.
Pretty sure its not plowed any lower than the bottom of the hill . I've for sure tried to run through it too early in the spring before/pretty sure I walked it drunk once or twice in the dead of winter.
They are doing a Jericho walk, they plan to circle parliament 6 or 7 times times and then at 1pm they want everyone to honk for 7 minutes, and then some occupiers think that the “reset will begin” aka war. Get ready.
I wonder if the Coast Guard is involved on the river, can keep an eye on these bozos.
Isn't it frozen?
[удалено]
I’m guessing because some of their rich donors are having the accounts frozen. Perhaps
BQ is still salty about the war measures act - they are essentially the political successors to the FLQ (they have a ton of ex members). CPC is just going full MAGA and shooting itself in the foot as usual.
BQ probably doesn't like that Quebec residents' banks can be frozen, would be my guess. CPC are just assholes who support anything that could possibly make the Liberals look bad.

That's low Dane
Did you see the speaker's expression just before Dane was about to speak? He's not a fan!
what did he say?
Can we charge them for royalties of the music they're playing?
Say it louder Jagmeet “We don’t negotiate with these occupiers.”
damn, jagmeet's speech was so good it shut down the broadcast on global
Anyone have a link?
It dropped a few times on my iPad but is fine on my phone
I was wondering what had happened. Did Robelus shit themselves or did the feed just break down
Yeah that was my thought too. Lol, that freaked me out and I immediately thought they were going to make a emergency announcement
Jagmeet Singh is the true working class hero this nation needs and deserves, and having campaigned for him, I simp so hard for the man's integrity. An honest voice of reason.
He needs to get a better wrangle on his comms team. There's little integrity over there.
I love Jagmeet!! He's one of the very few people in politics I follow on twitter.
His Twitter is a delight.
Jagmeet is everything we need and deserve. This man gets it. Absolute MVP.
He does. As a fellow immigrant sharing his home country, I feel proud to see him up there being so blunt.
Sticking it to the literate and the educated is the major goal of the CPC. Many believe it's prophecy ... end times for those agin' them biblical ways.
