1/ There has been some weeping and gnashing of teeth over a "bunnyhug" seen at the Protest in Calgary on Thurs.
First, this protest of thousands was peaceful, no violence. No masked thugs with clubs or Dcell batteries in socks. No litter. No vandalism.

2/ the Calgary Police went so far as to tweet how well behaved they were. to get thousands of Canadians, let alone pro conservatives out on a workday is newsworthy and nearly unprecedented in decades, for Calgary probably back to the dark days of the NEP.
3/ we now see the usual suspects focusing on the very worst of what was a very good crowd. Throwing shade on a couple who surely in good humor for many carried signs casting doubt on the genetic lineage of our current PM and his mother's oft' rumoured indiscretions.
4/ the other was a sweatshirt. Or a "bunnyhug" as it is known to true Patriots. It bore a depiction of a noose in a tree with the slogan "come west Trudeau."
The very expected cries came quickly from left field of racism, threats of violence, lynching of people of colour.

5/ the people who protest this depiction of such are ignorant of our Canadian history in general, and of the history of Trudopian protest in Western Canada in general and in the scope of their livelihoods being threatened by the house of Trudeau.
6/ as for CDN history: many genX, Millenials, gen Y,Z,Zer and even some boomers may be shocked: SCHOCKED!!! That Canada had a death penalty on the books in Canada until 1976. The only death penalty we had wasnt quiet and discreet like the chair or lethal injection...USA style...
7/ it was a hangin. And they were public. We strung people up, dropped the floor and let them swing. Last one barely 50 years ago....
So bring it around to the Bunnyhug... the logo was inspired by another. One that became popular during the reign of Trudy I.

8/ here is the original. Its origin is relatively unknown but is presumed to be from somewhere between 1975 and 1982. It was born in the context of the NEP, and a time when a Trudeau figuratively and literally gave the middle finger to Western Canada and the oil and gas sectr

10/ That hat can be found in the Museum of Canadian History. In. A
Museum. The exhibit still exists, surprisingly in the Age when images of our founding Father are being purged from public squares and the 10 dollar bill...

11/ the noose and the gallows as a symbol of racism, oppression, slavery today are an artifact of projection of American history on Canadian values. In 1976 in Canada it was a symbol of justice. Of the Old West popular in film contemporarily when hangings were for the lowest
12/ of the low. Not the least of them thieves of ones' livelihood. In that context, the shirt isn't a threat. It is a homage to the last time Alberta got bent over by a Teudeau. A homage to our history.
