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

#abpoli
@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.

Tales from the puppy park & another night under #OttawaSiege. Early on in #OttawaOccupied a neighbour had just finished her jog when she faced 2 thugs demanding that she remove her mask, or else. They were fighting for her freedom, didn't she get it?
Tale #2: I'm now familiar w/ specific trucks. On the way home, 2 were filling petrol cans @ the nearby gas station, likely for delivery to Parliament Hill. There was s/t different this time, tho: there were no CDN flags flapping in the wind, but the flag shafts were still there.
I see this everyday now. I normally smile & say hello to my neighbours, but not these thugs marauding about my city. More tales tomorrow. Stay tuned for live in city under siege.

OH LUARD HE'S A COMING!

#OttawaPolice are currently handing out flyers similar to the actions taken in #Windsor before actual police action was undertaken.

Metaphorical shots are being fired! Let #Freedom Ring!

🧵After watching the walkaround today and knowing what we know about the #Trailerban. I'm definitely seeing the difficulty required to strike and get a swift win before they reinforce/react/entrench.

If you are of the mindeset that they are not armed and that they will cave. Then a long, block by block would be a valid and effective tactic.

If you think they will dig in - or worse, go extreme with scorched earth tactics, then you are looking at literal fire full of fuel.
My view is from all the intel and all the reactions to police and public - is that they have a lot of pawns, but very few willing to lose everything - including perhaps their lives for "the cause" - not enough to mount a defense.

Mad about Ottawa Police inaction #OttawaSiege?
Who is in charge of the Ottawa Police and is the boss of @OPSChiefSloly? Who sets firm deadline and policy for him to enforce? @dianedeans of the Ottawa Police Service Board. 1
@OPSChiefSloly reports to the board and shall obey its lawful orders and directions.  R.S.O. 1990, c. P.15, s. 41 (2). Chair @dianedeans and the board are responsible for “the provision of adequate and effective police services in the municipality and shall, 2
(c)  establish policies for the effective management of the police force; (e)  direct the chief of police and monitor his or her performance; Police Service Act: 31 (1) Police Service Act. Since Chair @dianedeans is not acting, can the other police board members do so? 3

My kid, underage in BC, was arrested twice (trial soon) for peaceful protest at #FairyCreek summer 2021, where #surgical #RCMP swat-style units would pull down protestor masks to pepper spray them directly in eyes 1/3
& would target Indigenous & Black protestors for removal. Their violence was called out by a BC judge. All to #defend old growth logging while protestors worked to protect climate & all of us by defending forests. But white nationalist organized 2/3
border #blockades & occupations see a few tickets issued. This is 🇨🇦 & we need to address our problems with policing, with white nationalism, & with values that put capital above & sanction violence over climate, Indigenous & Black lives. #canadaprotests

Looks like u might have a @WindsorPolice problem guys. U inexplicably didnt get it done last night & now someone just sent this video of a Windsor Police officer 2 us. Audio with redacted video is next in the thread. #onpoli #cdnpoli @JustinTrudeau @ctvottawa @fordnation
First off this audio is NOT PG rated & the language is definitely NOT suitable 4 children or people who cant handle swearing. Second EVERYTHING he says about Minneapolis & the #GeorgeFloyd protests r false. I live there & experienced it all. So please read the rest of the thread
So our Governor DID call it a state of emergency in MN (well citywide) during #GeorgeFloyd & we had mandated curfews (1st time i have ever experienced a mandated curfew in my life) & he DID called in the National Guard so exactly NO this police officer doesn't seem have the facts

The #ConvoyForFreedom2022 decided to block Marine Atlantic's entrance with their convoy. Keep in mind this does not consist of any semi's. All I could see was the same #antivaxxers who have been covid denier's for the last year in local social media groups. /1

#FluTruxClan
I decided I would drive over to see who was involved and why? @nsgov clearly released an injunction against any blockades or 'slow roll convoys'. Why would these guys just blatantly ignore that? So I put my 'trigger' mask on and headed down after a 20 min drive. /2

#Clownvoy
Some "Freedom Fighters" decided to walk up in support at the bridge. When I asked what they are supporting I was told "freedom for our children". I replied with "your children look pretty free to me". The person quickly turned and walked away. /3

With the Ottawa community solidarity rally getting underway, let's get a few things clear. Firstly, it's not a truckers protest. teamsters.ca/en/blog/2022/0… /1 #OttawaOccupation #OttawaOccupied

The big question on my mind lately is:

When will residents of #Ottawa stop being lied to by authorities?

We are hearing over and over again that enforcement is taking place but that is clearly, and verifiably, a lie. #OttawaOccupied #Ottnews
In some cases this is in real time, where the evidence to refute what is being said is displayed for all to see.

In some cases we are seeing active facilitation by authorities of illegal activities (such as new encampments, fuel resupply, allowing vehicles back in to occupy)
We have also heard conflicting statements that this was remarkably peaceful, and then that enforcement would lead to violence, and then when bare minimum enforcement was done there was no violence. So what is actually going on here? What is the truth?

🧵Since I first started researching this convoy I have been DISGUSTED by all of the founders, but particularly by Pat King. He is a piece of shit. Actually, shit might be too pleasant of a title for him. So whatever you associate being less/worse then shit. #FluTruxKlanGoHome
Before we begin with explaining the actions we’re going to take, I’m going to give you a brief rundown on why this man child is problematic (other than his obvious threats/ calls for violence)

TW: pretty much anything that’s offensive/harmful to anyone #GoHomeConvoy
Pat King believes that the Government and the United Nations aim for the “depopulation of the anglo Saxon race.”  “Why would they [the Government/U.N.] want to do this?” He states that this is all part of the U.N. 2030 agenda and that it is their “endgame.” #FluTruxKlanGoHome

My first time listening to .@RaquelDancho - she's hitting the nail on the head with some points (no response from elected officials) and quite well spoken. Might not agree with her party's policies all the time but I'm impressed - future party leader?

#ottawa #cndpoli
I know in #Alberta, hundreds of constituents have written their UCP MLA's & no response. Multiple letters and either no response or finally one, but it's a copy and paste push off - nothing to address their personalized concerns. The frustration does make sense.

#ableg #abpoli
In terms of @RaquelDancho saying ppl losing jobs b/c of the vaccine; if employers want to put these measures into place that is their choice. As it's a choice if workers choose not to get vaccinated - or pee in a cup for drug/alcohol tests for the jobs that require it.
