2. Parliament Hill at 9:30 am est.
4. Last night convoy supporter walked around noting the relative silence when compared to previous days which must be a relief to Ottawa residents.
5. However not at was well in Whoville as #OttawaOccupiers continue to be picked off.
6.
7. Take with a grain of salt, but evidently some Americans plan on coming to Ottawa to be disruptive (better be vaccinated to cross y'all).

In fact some might already be part of the #OttawaOccupation.
8. This wouldn't be the international incident he thinks it would be. It would be people arrested for violating the law. Americans are subject to the laws of the countries they visit as is anyone else.
9. It would appear that the reasons for participating might be a bit petty.
10. Elsewhere a tiny fraction of Canadians continue to hold the rest of the country hostage because of what boils down to a temper tantrum.

13. Elsewhere Chris Saccoccia (aka Chris Sky) is encouraging boats to get in on the action.
14.
16. Still in Ottawa, Alex Vriend posts footage of a truck being used as a weapon in Toronto and thinks it is funny because of course he does.
17. Of course there's a Trump flag on the truck!

I mean, why wouldn't there be?
19. Jeremy MacKenzie, defacto leader of the Plaid Army/Diagolon hate group, is cheering on potential reinforcements to Ottawa from Toronto.
20.
23. QAnon influencer and self-proclaimed Queen of Canada Romana Didulo continues to do divorced from reality Romana Didulo things.
25. Finally Pat King, who is live streaming as I post this, continues to trend on Twitter for all the wrong reasons if you are Pat King trying to retcon your reputation.
28. And I’m off to work (something the #OttawaOccupiers should consider for themselves).

Back in a few hours.
29. Well it looks like a lot happened while I was away.

First, because why not, let's start with a petulant Pat King reverting to form.
30. Pat is angry at @theJagmeetSingh for "reading" something and criticizing the harassment and intimidation of Ottawa residents.
31. He then says that truckers in retaliation should honk their horns again.

Keep in mind that Pat King doesn't have a truck and would not suffer the consequences of violating the court injunction.
32. He rally doesn't like Mr. Singh.
33. Remember when he gave Ottawa the finger in the first clip.

Well, you should know that Ottawa actually loves them!
34. Pat claims the decision to stop honking was an olive branch offered by the #OttawaOccupiers.

Uhm, no. No, it was because of a court injunction. Had nothing to do with you.
35. "They" are trying to stop him again!

Or you've got a bad WiFi connection.

Which one seems more realistic.
36. Pat gets really, really, biblical in a weird way even for Pat.
37. Back to antagonism (if people don't like what we're doing they can stay inside) followed by misinformation about vaccines.
39. Pat King accuses the police chief of lying about arresting large numbers of people. However that isn't at all what @OPSChiefSloly actually says.

You can even read in the closed captions what was said and it isn't what Pat appears to hear.
41. There is something deliciously rich about Pat King telling anyone for any reason to "grow up."
42. Now this will be an interesting contrast.

Here he says that they are 100% peaceful, the refrain he has been repeating ad nauseum since this began.
43. He then IMMEDIATELY asks supporters if they wouldn't mind stop sending hate mail and death threats to the tow company that helped move the plywood structure. The family is frightened.

TOTALLY peaceful people.
44. Later in the day, Pat King notes that he can no longer do e-transfers.

He of course blames the government.

Maybe, OR alternatively the bank sees a lot of money going into the account and leaving the account soon after and flagged it as suspicious.
45. Pat King suggests he is going to sue the government and he will be talking to lawyers and "serving files."

Pat King is forever threatening the serving of files. It is almost as predictable as him being "done 100%!"
46. Pat instead promised to take money directly out of the bank and hand it out to people he sees.

So I guess if you want money from Pat, wear a plaid shirt, quilted vest, a trucker hat and randomly shout "freedom!"
47. Also, remember when it was noted that it was far-right street preacher who convinced the people blocking the Coutts border to stay after they had agreed to leave?

I'm sure it has nothing to do with that, but he was arrested again today.
48. Artur Pawlowski accepted his arrest (having again dropped to his knees for dramatic purposes) with the quiet dignity we have come to expect from him.
49. Rebel Media has to Rebel Media.

Sign this petition.
Donate.
Harvest emails for future direct solicitations.

Wash.
Rinse.
Repeat.
50. So let's look at some other tweets from others earlier in the day.

53. Pat King claims the people in Ottawa are standing with the occupiers (I mean, when he isn't ridiculing them or telling them if they don't like it to stay home).

I'm not so sure about that.

ottawa.ctvnews.ca/majority-of-ot…
54. Looking at Tyler Russell's hate group Canada First, Russell has been posting about rumours as well as Saskatchewan and Alberta dealing with mandate issues.
55. He also seems tickled about Canada First being among the subjects of a @pressprogress article.
56. Pro tip. Having operated a blog for more than a decade that named racists, I can note with experience that, over the long term, that notoriety isn't something that they will like

pressprogress.ca/meet-the-extre…
57. Uhm, I'm not sure I would brag about going to Gab.
58. And as the night goes on things seem to be getting more tense as Tyler Russell and others continue to instigate.
60.
61. You won't be surprised but Chris Saccoccia (aka Chris Sky) proudly announced that he was the greatest interviewee ever on a conspiracy nutter's programme because Mr. Teeth is the greatest at all things.
62. As always he is a charmer.
63. Who is Stew Peters, by the way?

Well...

thedailybeast.com/magas-new-shoc…
64. And of course Pat King was also on his programme claiming he proved Covid didn't exist because he didn't understand what a legal document actually said.

reuters.com/article/factch…
65. Of course as Ottawa in some ways is not the epicentre of what is going down in the country, Chris Saccoccia has to find a way to continue making things about him so of course he is heading to Coutts.
66.
67. But upon hearing Kenney's announcement today, would it surprise you to learn that Chris Saccoccia basically takes credit for it?

Of course you aren't surprised.
67.
69. Joshua Switzer-Crowe (aka Angry Albertan) remains angry however.
70. Now a quick look at the hate group Plaid Army/Diagolon defacto leader Jeremy Mackenzie.

Again, a bit of background first.

antihate.ca/jeremy_mackenz…
72. Jeremy has been bouncing between optimistic and pessimistic to day.
73. And he promotes what is tantamount to economic terrorism.
74. But hey, Alex Jones of InfoWars is a fan.
75. This is from yesterday, but Pat King's laughter at the suffering of Ottawa residents is chilling.

76. Hey, I missed this one as well.

A reminder of the danger of the actual convoys themselves.

globalnews.ca/news/8598931/a…
77. Jim Kerr, an #OttawaOccupier, says he talked to a trucker who because he can't get diesel fuel might just fly home and leave his truck parked.

First, I thought they weren't leaving?
Second, if he wants to fly, he better be vaccinated.
78. Tyler Russell continues to be excited when people pay attention to him; the comments are somewhat mixed.
79. Tamara Lich seems to be having some social media problems.
80. This Manitoba occupier talks about being a block leader, how this is his family, and says that Ottawa has opened up to them.

Ottawa, by and large, has not opened up to them.
81. Jim Kerr then asks a question that elicits an interesting response. The man he is speaking to claims he has had direct contact with a Conservative MP who says he "can't fly so he does everything by video" suggesting he is unvaccinated seemingly proud of that fact.
82. Also, that Memorandum of Understanding that was basically only a step from sovcit woo and was equally as ridiculous?

Seems the organizer have decided they are no longer running with that.
83. Police in Calgary are issuing summons in relation to the convoy support efforts there.

They will not be bullied out of bullying people!
84. Also in Alberta, former Innisfail councilor, failed mayoral candidate, convoy supporter, anti-mandate, and a man trying to make Alberta the 51st state Glen Carritt is facing charges in relation to his activities in support of the convoy.

85. Back briefly to the interview conducted by #OttawaOccupation supporter Jim Kerr of the man from Manitoba.

The man seems to believe that Trudeau will resign in less than a fortnight.
87. Okay, I wasn't going to write anything about QAnon influencer and self-proclaimed Queen of Canada Romana Didulo because it really is a side show but this is bonkers!

First, a reminder.

cbc.ca/radio/frontbur…
88. She spent much of the day doing engaged in her divorced from reality tour, but then this happened.
89. It would appear that one of her supporters decided that he wasn't a supporter any longer.
90. She continued to put on a brave face...
91. ...but I do think she was quite angry as she began to throw around the word "treason."
92.
93. And in Romana Didulo's Kingdom of Canada, there is a penalty for treason.
94. Her supporters are disturbingly giddy about the prospect of someone being executed as evidenced by this sample of comments.
95. Didulo eventually went back to divorced from reality Roman Didulo things again.
96. However reality continued to interfere with her fantasy kingdom and imaginary reign.
97. And with that it is time for bed.

Here is Parliament Hill at 2:00 am est.

1/ It's been a while since I've done a thread here, but the recent focus on Pat King got me to wondering what was up with his own Salacious Crumb, Tyson "Freedom George" Billings.

cbc.ca/news/canada/ot…
Image
2/ Last time I looked at Billings he was a part of the efforts to set up a permenant camp outside Ottawa so there could be daily protests, though the original plan involved surrounding the police and arresting politicians.

Suffice to say it didn't go anywhere.
3/ Billings and Ron Clark soon headed home, but they both soon got involved in other protests including the anti-carbon tax protests occurring in the province. The numbers at these events have been small but that hasn't stopped from politicians from courting the fringes it seems. Image

1/ Though I'm not especially active these days, I'm still sometimes gobsmacked by some of the ridiculous (though sadly effective) rage farming by some on the right. Harrison Faulkner of "True North" is just a recent example of that. Image
2/ So a bit of background. Musical artist Karan Aujla won the 2024 TikTok Juno Fan Choice Award at the award ceremony this past weekend.

I think it was this weekend. Truth be told I don't pay a lot of attention to awards shows.

3/ It should be noted that Aujla has been in Canada for years emigrating as an orphan. He graduated from high school in Canada. The album was produced by a Canadian on a Canadian label.

He has made his home here.

1/ A couple of days ago self-proclaimed leaders of the "freedom movement" held a press conference in Ottawa which was about as unhinged as you might have expected.

2/ Apparently the person who set this up was Derek Noonan who was also one of the speakers.

That would be this guy and I shall get back to him shortly. Image
3/ Because these "freedom patriot" types are SUPER jealous of anyone getting even a tiny bit of the noteriety they seem to believe they deserve and are entitled to, Gordon Berry was not happy with the press conference.

1. Misinformation has always been a feature on Twitter but prior to Musk's ownership there appeared to be a minimal effort (very minimal) to counter it. Those days are clearly over.

Case in point, Theo Fleury shared this with his 285.8K followers today: Image
2. Before I go any further, no. This is not in fact true at all and a fact check would indicate that it isn't true.

Pictured here with Chrystia Freeland is her mother and sister. Image
3. When asked about the photo, the original poster said it was taken in 1967: Image

1. Tyson "Freedom George" Billings did a few live streams today that I think are rather telling.

Also, I realize that some of the clips may not appear, so at the end I'll be sure to link to a way that y'all can see the thread in it's entirety.
2. First, Billings is upset by the grifters using his name and creating fake profiles to sell "merch".

I will remind you that Billings buddy Pat King tried to set up what folks in the know suggest was a crypto scam.

1. When Mathieu Venne was booted from the camp outside of Ottawa for giving an interview with the media, he did a live stream to air grievances.

While it was a painful hour to listen to, there was a small part that I found especially interesting.

2. I am NOT going to post a clip covering every part of the video, but I do think there are a couple that are important.

First, Venne claims that he wasn't able to be himself and had to be careful how he spoke.
3. It appears that for people who complain about controlled narratives, Norm Blanchfield and Gordon Berry are really determined to control the narrative.

But hypocrisy isn't a surprise.
