Time for follow up on the thread re: La Crete Chamber sending a bus to #Ottawa on February 13 well after it was known the protest was not peaceful or lawful, with plans to meet with their MP @ArnoldViersen

Recap:

#freedomconvoy22 #RamRanchResistance
Andrew F, who was on the bus, updated the Chamber's posts about their timeline and also the group had a "very good meeting" with MP @ArnoldViersen. This was on Feb. 17, after #Ontario declared a state of emergency and the #EmergenciesAct was in place.

#OttawaOccupation #Ottawa
Their MP wasn't the only "famous face" they met; Barbie H, who appears to also be part of the La Crete Chamber group from her posts on the Mackenzie County Freedom Rally 2022 Facebook Group, is pictured here with #OttawaSiege organizers Danny Bulford and Chris Barber.

Does a municipal government have the authority and legality to do this? What about companies with mandatory drug/alcohol testing? @CBCEdmonton @ctvedmonton @CityNewsYEG @edmontonjournal @globeandmail @GlobalEdmonton you might want to look into this

@Mitchell_AB @KikkiPlanet @TheBreakdownAB @duncankinney -
Know anyone who may be able to answer if a Municipality can institute such a “rule”?
Just to follow this up, this County and some of it’s small towns are among the lowest vaccination rates in Alberta.

And while this area also claims to be untouched by covid, the statistics don’t lie.

1\ Most of the missing rifles stolen from Savage Arms were recovered in Peel region. That's a very positive development. Absolutely wild that the #convoytoottawa2022 claimed the guns were in Ottawa. Then again, this is a crowd that claims vaccines are killing children so...
2\ 2-3000 missing guns in the middle of an occupation of the capital city made a hell of a talking point and underscored the severity of the last few days, but I'm glad we can put this particular piece of alarmism to rest.
3\ Let's not lose sight of the fact that while the convoy was wrong alleging a state plot to entrap them, the state actually has done, is doing and will continue to do those sort of things. It's best not to gaslight even incorrect suspicions over nefarious state involvement.

1\ What @vaush misses is that the organizers weren't just staging a strike, or a blockade as part of some call for justice, they published an MOU at the start of their occupation calling specifically for the government's regulation and called the GG to endorse a citizen council.
2\ To be clear, I'm a "Blair Mountain enjoyer" and love me some radical labour politics, but if a striking labour group in Canada were to frame their core demand around as a total change in government, well-- I'd expect the state to use all available options to stop them.
3\ @Vaush compared the convoy to 'striking Dairy Queen workers'. You know, if it was just a labour action, he'd be right, but it's not. They demanded the governor general recognize a citizen council as a new government and occupied the capital with trucks. aljazeera.com/news/2022/2/7/…

Supporting neoNazis abroad, smearing Canadians as fascist at home: #Freeland #Fascist #convoytoottawa2022

'The source in Kyiv credits Ms. Freeland as the key intervention that changed the Ukrainian government’s plan to arrest the former president.'
theglobeandmail.com/politics/artic…
'Poroshenko, who served as president from 2014 to 2019, was placed under investigation for high treason and left Ukraine in December. '
themoscowtimes.com/2022/01/17/fac…
'The sources in Ottawa and Kyiv say she [Freeland] warned that the arrest of the former president would send an antidemocratic message to the world and undermine efforts to bolster the country in the face of a threatened Russian invasion.'

Did another walk through the #convoytoottawa2022 front lines late yesterday afternoon 9 Feb. No signs @OttawaPolice @JimWatsonOttawa @SteveKanellakos @ChiefAyotte are doing anything to prepare for the inevitable increase in occupiers on weekend. 1/
By no means worst aspect of occupation but city's inability to manage crisis has led to closure of one of few parks in DT Ottawa with a fence being erected around National Aboriginal Veterans Monument to save it from further desecration from "patriots". 2/
Speaking of monuments glad to see action finally taken to remove partisan PPC sign on the National War Memorial. Maybe @RoyalCdnLegion was able to get Police to take action because I was not. 3/

Today on convoy radio, they're encouraging each other to fires burning in the streets for warmth. Looks like it's gonna be another day

Ils sont nuls en calcul mais ça on le savait déjà. Ça ferait quoi, en vrai, 50'000 camions et 500'000 voitures ?

Calculons. ⤵️
La taille moyenne d'un semi-remorque
classique, en Europe, est de 16,50m.
En Amérique du Nord, c'est un chouïa
plus long (23m). On pourrait aussi
penser qu'ils sont là sans remorque
(donc plutôt 3 à 8m), voire que
certains sont venus avec des
remorques longues, ou même
avec un attelage de plusieurs remorques, mais pourquoi faire ça?
