Hearing @Yasir_Naqvi read emails from residents was hard to listen to. The residents of #ottawa are living in a literal hell zone. I wish he could post these for all to read. Mind you the truckers would probably call them fake...

#OccupationOttawa #OttawaSiege @OttawaPolice
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice People have left their homes to stay with others, are living in homes with overwhelming smells of diesel fumes, decibels are reading 72 inside homes, businesses harrassed, protestors refusing to wear masks, no sleep, can't go outside without being accosted...
#OccupationOttawa
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice .@Yasir_Naqvi says he can read over a hundred more emails from residents suffering as a result of these protestors.

'Have people forgot we are still living through a global pandemic' and 'living through a 5th wave'?

#OccupationOttawa #OttawaSiege #cndpoli #FluTruxClan
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice "I am not interested in speaking to somebody who waves a swastika or confederate flag"
- @Yasir_Naqvi

Says Jewish community members are rattled and scared. Re-traumatized and victimized. Urges all MP's to ask protestors to leave.

#OccupationOttawa #cndpoli #FluTruxClan
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice MP Naqvi brings up a good point to the other MP's (tapping you on the shoulder @CPC_HQ) - have the residents and businesses been forgotten in this?

Laws need to be enforced.

#OccupationOttawa #OttawaSiege #cndpoli #FluTruxClan
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice @CPC_HQ "Laws at the municipal, provincial and federal level have been broken - we need to make sure enforcement is there"
- @Yasir_Naqvi

'We need to make sure there is a plan and this occupation is put to an end.'

#OccupationOttawa #OttawaSiege #cndpoli #FluTruxClan
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice @CPC_HQ MP Caputo (CPC) asks @Yasir_Naqvi if it's the PM's job to tell the police what to do.

What a waste of a question.

Politicians do not tell police officials how to enforce the law. However (looking at you @jkenney) this isn't an excuse not to invoke Bill 1 in #Alberta for #Coutts
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice @CPC_HQ @jkenney I would personally like to thank @Yasir_Naqvi for continuing to remind the CPC that there is a freaking global pandemic happening right now.

#OccupationOttawa #OttawaSiege #cndpoli #FluTruxClan #ottawa
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice @CPC_HQ @jkenney I feel like a huge part of MP Naqvi's question responses are becoming a Canadian Government 101 class for these MP's...

#OccupationOttawa #OttawaSiege #cndpoli #FluTruxClan #ottawa
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice @CPC_HQ @jkenney Side note: When @AndyFillmoreHFX started speaking I could've sworn it was actor Michael Gaston talking in Parliament. They sound so so so much alike...
#ottawa #cndpoli
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice @CPC_HQ @jkenney @AndyFillmoreHFX Over to anti-LGTBQ++ and pro-conversion therapy MP @GarnettGenuis...

And he's asking any member of Parliament to go talk to the protestors. Yeah, while some have effigies of hanging the PM and break multiple laws in #Ottawa

#OttawaOccupation #OttawaSiege #cndpoli
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice @CPC_HQ @jkenney @AndyFillmoreHFX @GarnettGenuis Wondering if @GarnettGenuis ever talked to victims of conversion therapy or the LGTBQ++ community to hear why his views are damaging and hateful...

He brings up autonomy for people's bodies yet holds these beliefs? WTH?

#ottawa #cndpoli #OttawaOccupation #OttawaSiege #onpoli
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice @CPC_HQ @jkenney @AndyFillmoreHFX @GarnettGenuis .@GarnettGenuis now says he spoke to a gay man, visible minorities, etc. Sticks up for the protestors and again points to the bad apple rhetoric.

Interesting that a guy who's grandma was a holocaust survivor is ok with the organizers being white nationalists.

#OttawaOccupation
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice @CPC_HQ @jkenney @AndyFillmoreHFX @GarnettGenuis Genuis is calling for the end of mandates. Doesn't acknowledge that again, many are provincial and again, the US has their own border rules. Brings up schools.
DUDE THAT IS PROVINCIAL

#ottawa #cndpoli #OttawaOccupation #OttawaSiege #onpoli
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice @CPC_HQ @jkenney @AndyFillmoreHFX @GarnettGenuis 'People are coming here because they want to work'
- Genuis

Um, then why aren't they working? Why are they terrorizing Ottawa?

#ottawa #cndpoli #OttawaOccupation #OttawaSiege #onpoli
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice @CPC_HQ @jkenney @AndyFillmoreHFX @GarnettGenuis One MP asks @GarnettGenuis if he agrees with the law breaking during the protest. And he answers, but doesn't answer that question.

Thank goodness NDP's @nikiashton is calling him out for it. These protestors are not "boyscouts"

#ottawa #cndpoli #OttawaOccupation #OttawaSiege
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice @CPC_HQ @jkenney @AndyFillmoreHFX @GarnettGenuis @nikiashton YES CLAP FOR @nikiashton - she brings up the foreign money. Also this is a debate about #ottawa not vaccines.

@GarnettGenuis laughs her off for bringing valid points of concern (what a child). Goes on China attack. On brand.

#ottawa #cndpoli #OttawaOccupation #OttawaSiege
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice @CPC_HQ @jkenney @AndyFillmoreHFX @GarnettGenuis @nikiashton A Liberal MP finally brought up that the MP's know full well the US has the exact same mandate that Canada does re: vaccines and agreements as part of being a G7 country.

Some @cpc_hq yells at him about his electric car.
Grow up.

#ottawa #cndpoli #OttawaOccupation #OttawaSiege
@Yasir_Naqvi @OttawaPolice @CPC_HQ @jkenney @AndyFillmoreHFX @GarnettGenuis @nikiashton .@viraniarif making some really good points tonight; as a Muslim man for the first time was scared walking home in #ottawa at night. Again, these are provincial mandates. Shutting down Ottawa is not ok.

#ottawa #cndpoli #OttawaOccupation #OttawaSiege
.@viraniarif saying what many of us are thinking, if these protestors were First Nations, Black or Muslim, there's no way this would have been allowed. @GarnettGenuis heckles; Speaker has to intervene. Genuis showing his true colours tonight folks. #shpk #ftsask #Strathco #ottawa
@viraniarif @GarnettGenuis MP Virani also brings up the inconsistency the @CPC_HQ views on foreign money; vocal if it's for environmental protests but quiet on this.

If people are being told not to wear scrubs for their safety, we have a problem - directed at @drsdelliscc; a doc himself.

#ottawa #cndpoli
@viraniarif @GarnettGenuis @CPC_HQ @drsdelliscc Conservative MP's again and again in this debate, are forgetting that while other countries have lifted mandates, we have PROVINCES and they oversee health, NOT the federal government. This is Canadian government systems 101 folks.
#FluTrucksClan #FluTruxKlan #ottawa #cndpoli
@viraniarif @GarnettGenuis @CPC_HQ @drsdelliscc .@ScotDavidsonMP stuck his foot in his mouth saying the protestors came to the right place to protest. Well man, pretty sure they're breaking a lot of laws doing it.
Parliament grounds = yes
Streets of Ottawa = no
Legislature = yes
#Coutts border = no
#FluTrucksClan #FluTruxKlan
@viraniarif @GarnettGenuis @CPC_HQ @drsdelliscc @ScotDavidsonMP Again during his speech, @ScotDavidsonMP is highlighting provincial health restrictions. Over and over. This has nothing to do with him as an MP. Reading letters from constituents that should be directed to their MLA's

#FluTrucksClan #FluTruxKlan #ottawa #cndpoli #GoHomeConvoy
@viraniarif @GarnettGenuis @CPC_HQ @drsdelliscc @ScotDavidsonMP Claps for @KodyBloisNS for being another MP who has to waste his question time to again educate a MP Davidson this is a provincial area of responsibility. Presumes he 'won't vote for @fordnation' in the next election...

#FluTrucksClan #FluTruxKlan #ottawa #cndpoli #GoHomeConvoy
@viraniarif @GarnettGenuis @CPC_HQ @drsdelliscc @ScotDavidsonMP @KodyBloisNS @fordnation It's hilarious that the @CPC_HQ MP's keep saying other MPs should meet with the protestors when these are the folks writing to Governor General to do things she has no power to do including oust provincial health/gov officials. Their demands are unreasonable & impossible
#ottawa
@viraniarif @GarnettGenuis @CPC_HQ @drsdelliscc @ScotDavidsonMP @KodyBloisNS @fordnation Thanks @LarryMaguireMP for denouncing protests at hospitals and people targeting health care workers. Hard to imagine these were the workers everyone banged pots for & are now dealing with record-breaking hospital numbers and targeted with hate.

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.
