With the official arrival of MAGA in Canada - that's what all these trucker demos are about - the Libs should immediately institute Proportional Rep. MAGA is a populist movement & they are energized & could win a majority & we are screwed. Look no further than the U.S.1/
If you look at the US, it's easy to see that Progressives & environmentalists have zero power & the Dems will lose their one-vote majority in The House in '22. America will move even further back to the previous century under the MAGA run GOP. Same here if the Cons get in. 2/
Many Greens are into the ant-vax thing & the NDP is useless re enviro-issues. There are good people in both parties, but without PR they won't stand a chance. Liberal corruption & general disgust with Trudeau will mean many voters will stay home & an energized Right will prevail.
If you think this thread is hyperbole, I'd like you to meet the #QAnon self-proclaimed Queen of Canada. Remember the #QAnonShaman, well the Ottawa occupiers have been joined by their queen. So yeah, they're a little short on the critical thinking thing.
And here's the #QAnon Shaman in the U.S. Capital in case you don't know who I'm talking about.
If anyone thinks the announcement that GoFundMe is taking down the #OccupyOttawa funding page is of any consequence, they are sadly mistaken. As I speak The Right is setting up non-profits, activating websites with donate buttons... medium.com/gofundme-stori…
& telling their supporters to get refunds from #GoFundMe & send the money to new sites. These people are so energized with hate & anger they will oblige. The big donor #DarkMoney - #KOCHNETWORK, #BigOIL et al will do the same. Trump = the way forward. reuters.com/world/us/trump…
Koch Network? This piece is from 2019, but it is still relevant. Wondering why Cons & Candice Bergan are supporting the wannabe Cdn. insurrectionists? Follow the money. Koch has a lot of money in Canada & there is more to come. rabble.ca/politics/canad…
Here are a few of the right-wing "think tanks"
they support:
Atlantic Institute for Market Studies, Frontier Centre for Public Policy, Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms, MacDonald-Laurier Institute for Public Policy, Manning Centre, and the Montreal Economic Institute.
One of these orgs should catch your eye. Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms is representing the so-called Freedom Convoy. This represents a direct connection between US Dark Money & the #OttawaOccupation crew. & Conservatives want a piece. jccf.ca/justice-centre…
