If any Canadians would like to chime in, I’m curious whether they think Parliament will allow Trudeau to assume dictatorial powers against the “Bouncy Castle” occupation. I’ve always assumed that the Canadian government was just like our Uniparty only more so. And I guess this is the time when it’ll show its true colors. The declaration specifies seizing bank accounts, cancelling insurance and revoking business licenses. These are pretty serious infringements of people’s lives.
I think the Parliament has five days to ratify the declaration. Will it? Assuming it does ratify these moves I think this will kill the protests. The only thing that could turn the situation around would be for the whole trucking industry to call a general strike. That would shut the country down immediately and probably force the government to accede to the demands in a couple of weeks. But it seems unlikely that would happen.
So, if the Parliament goes along with Trudeau and the truckers don’t call a general strike the protests will end. The only question remaining is whether this will sit well with the general population. Is it possible that even the go by the rules, follow the leader Canadians can become angry enough at their leaders to vote the bums out at the next election?
I tend to doubt it. They seem even worse than us. But the possibility remains. Joe Brandon’s approval rating is under water because Americans have grown tired of incompetence but even more so, they’ve grown tired of the COVID fascism. They’ve learned to distrust the inconsistent and seemingly useless dictates of Fauci and Biden. They don’t want to be forced to take medicines that don’t work and might be dangerous. They don’t want to wear masks that don’t work. They don’t want to carry identification that says they’re complying with these mandates in order to have lunch at a restaurant or watch a football game or fly on a plane. Biden knows this now and he’s back-pedaling as fast as his stuttering brain will allow him to go. By March many of the states will have removed most if not all of the COVID restrictions and the feds will be slightly behind them. That’s so they can hope to survive the midterms.
I don’t know the schedules of the Canadian election cycle. Maybe they’ve got years before they come up for reelection. And I don’t know the details of their Stupid Party. Maybe they’re even stupider than ours. But I’m about to find out if there is a beating heart of freedom left in Canada. If they allow the Truckers’ Rebellion to be chloroformed without a fight and leave Trudeau and his henchmen in charge then that will answer the question perfectly. That will line up with other areas of the anglosphere like New Zealand and Australia where the COVID fascists have crushed all dissent and exposed the majority of their citizens as the powerless and cowardly lackeys of the gynocracy. Now granted, Justin Trudeau is nominally a man but if you look at him, he’s girliest of girlie men. The contrast between him and the type of people making up the Truckers’ Protest couldn’t be starker. Canada is getting to choose what kind of men represent their nation. I hope they choose well.
Update:
At least one Canadian newspaper (Toronto Sun) is opposed to Trudeau’s fascism. I’ll call this a sliver of hope.
