2. Web cam footage today. Parliament Hill at 1:00 pm est and other footage in the area at various times.
3. Okay, I have a shit ton of DMs that I'll try to get to in a bit.

Big story so far seems that the Ambassador Bridge has been cleared.

cbc.ca/news/canada/wi…
4. I'll try to catch up with that asap.

In the meantime information after I logged off.

Tamara Lich is back on social media.
5. No doubt she is a bit upset about this news.

reuters.com/world/americas…
6. Also Artur Pawlowski's son and Art's brother Dawid read another lament about how hard done Art is merely for having repeatedly and unapologetically broken numerous laws.
7.
8. Also in Alberta, it looks like the RCMP checkpoint at the Coutts border isn't so much a checkpoint as it a velvet rope as they moved aside their cars to Chris Saccoccia (aka Chris Sky) could pass unhindered.
9. Have I mentioned that Mr. Teeth has numerous court dates for continually violating AHS rules, trespassing, and threats?
10. The other dude bros of course love it.
11.
13. But not all is good with the various occupations.

In Ottawa the police shut down the loud music. Jim Kerr thought that was the right thing to do as freedom does not mean freedom to do absolutely anything you want.
14.
15. Within 15 minutes however, elements that Kerr described as "belligerent" turned the music back up, upsetting Kerr.
16. "Evidently freedom people will do what they do."

"It's not the way to do things folks. Got to get along with our authorities. We don't just oppose them for the sake of opposing them. That's not the way it works. But whatever"
17. Back at the Ambassador Bridge, arrests were already being made. The former Proud Boy chapter that rebranded as Canada First (not Russell Tyler's equally racist Canada First) had comment.
18.
19. Pat King however had a great time last night great party.
20. Apparently there are plans for the east coast and the west coast.
21. When told Ezra Levant called Pat a fed, Pat King claims he proved that Rebel Media was "controlled opposition" who pay off journalists. If you don't know this you need to "do your research."
22. This all stems from when Ezra contradicted Pat's claim to have proven in court that Covid didn't exist... which he didn't meaning Ezra was right (I feel dirty writing that).

Pat doesn't like people telling him he is wrong, thus the beef.
23. Claims that he is being trolled on his phone but don't worry because he loves it.
24. You see, the trolls don't realize it but Pat King is saving them as well.
25. What is his plan for tomorrow (today)

No plan. He just let's Jesus take the wheel every day.

Jesus himself would suggest that is a poor way to drive and would result in accidents.
26. Maybe people aren't criticizing you because you are "over the target" Pat.

Perhaps they are criticizing you because you are a jerk who consistently lies?
27. You know the crypto scam is a part of?

Yeah, he says all of the truckers are on board.

Maybe, but also see the above tweet about Pat King consistently lying.
28. Pat King urges people to look at past videos where he has proved Rebel is "paid opposition."

He is also critical that journalists take a pay cheque which suggested he doesn't realize that journalism is a profession for which people are, you know, compensated for their work?
29. And though he "loves the trolls" and want them to keep it up, he doesn't really love them as he is changing his phone number.
30. Also, and though he claims to "hate the mainstream media" he continues to be drawn to cameras like moths drawn to a flame as this NBC video early in the #OttawaOccupation indicates.

rumble.com/vugk11-nbc-int…
31. Now on to today.

Infuriatingly, apparently the @OttawaPolice didn't take the prospect of being occupied at all seriously.

32. Caught flat footed, the OPS still seem at a loss.

However, Ottawa citizens appear to have had enough.

33. This is at bank and Riverside in Ottawa.
34. Far-right pseudo-journalist Leigh Stewart doesn't seem to know that the War Measures Act hasn't been a thing since the 1980s.
34. Plaid Army/Diagolon member Alex Vriend is also upset by the loss of the bridge.

Given what what we know of Vriend and the Plaid Army/Diagolon, it is a little rich that he is making a "just following orders" reference.
35. I combined the videos for brevity.
35. Getting back to the counter-protest at Bank/Riverside, Pat King put out a call to other #OttawaOccupiers.
36. I'll upload as I cut up the clips, but Pat King urged other occupiers to go to confront the counter-protesters who he claimed were harassing the occupiers.

By, you know, telling asshole who have made their lives hell for more than two weeks to leave?
37. Pat King claims the opposition is the result of being paid by @antihateca who he again lies about saying we were given $45 million dollars. He calls out our Executive Director out by name.
38. As I've been tweeting for two weeks straight, I feel his not having mentioned me is an egregious and inexcusable snub. 😉
39. Rolling out the paranoid conspiracies, Pat King claims there is a concerted effort by 1000 Secret Service and MI6 members to take them down. They are to look for people who don't seem to belong.

I'm sure the counter-protesters already know who don't belong.
40. Pat is telling everyone around the world involved supporting the #OttawaOccupation to get in peoples' faces with cameras.
41. Apparently the sneaky SOBs are trying to trick the #OttawaOccupiers with... reads notes... basic journalistic questions.

Uhm... no one is forcing someone to answer "take over the government." Asking, "what's next if this doesn't work" isn't a leading question.
42. Pat King again urges people to get in the face of anyone they see recording people and demand their badge number. They can lie about being police, but Pat thinks they are required to share their badge number is asked directly.

Pat... that isn't a thing in undercover work.
43. To paraphrase Pat King here:

Truckers, if someone asks how your day is, don't slip up and shout "WE'RE OVERTHROWING THE GOVERNMENT!"

I mean, admittedly that would be a strange response when a "fine, and yours?" would have been sufficient.
44. He then reads the handles (excuse me, code names) of the people providing Pat King this intelligence. It is funny. Very funny.

The "code names" are also asking for donations because of course they are.
45. He reads the names again in a seriousness that makes the whole thing so much more funny!
46. What about PJ? And Squee! Don't forget Squee!
47. No commentary here other than these men are idiots.
48. Infiltrators are everywhere even in the war room... or whatever they are calling it these days because Pat doesn't seem to know.

Also, the paranoia is delicious. It tastes like a vintage port.
49. Oh god! He's repeating the intel gather's names again (who he reminds people are asking for donations).

People, I can't! This is just too farcical now! I can't stop laughing! My sides hurt! THEY HURT!!!
50. Apparently Windsor was lost because of a trick question and NOT because they were in violation of a court injunction.

Pat King is bad at knowing things and how things work.
51. Pat King continues to give orders about what to do and how to catch the feds.

I suspect herding cats would be an easier task.
52. When asked if he's sure, Pat King says to trust him because the person who told him was an intel agent and they have people on the inside providing Pat with information.

I am almost certain Pat would be the last person someone on the "inside" would tell anything.
53. THAT IS NOT HOW UNDERCOVER WORK WORKS PAT!!!
54. Pat, not realizing he himself has published his phone number all over, attacks a person he thinks shared it and threatens to get their social media shut down.

For... freedom? I guess?
55. We finish with more paranoia and, I'm sure at the end when he again freezes up, I'm sure Pat King thinks "they" are on to him.
56. Okay not that THAT fun time is over, on to other news.

Alex Vriend of the Plaid Army/Diagolon is upset protestors are being arrested in Windsor.
57. I would be more sympathetic if not for the fact Vriend and the people on his side become practically orgasmic when the police crack heads at BLM or Indigenous protests and if he hadn't hoped an Ottawa citizen angry and the disruption would "rope himself".
59. The Plaid Army/Diagolon defacto leader Jeremy MacKenzie seems to jump from manic to depressive throughout the day. I'm not writing this to be glib or as a joke. The man seems to have some serious ptsd that needs to be addressed before he becomes a danger to himself and others
62. Leigh Stewart, part of an accelerationist movement that would like to see the government removed, is upset the media is using accurate words to describe an insurrection.
62. Remember when people were being "deputized" in accordance with sovcit pseudo-law to arrest the police who tried to arrest them?

I suggest that we have seen an escalation.

64. While making a call to #OttawaOccupiers to confront counter-protesters, Pat King himself used the opportunity to go to the National War Cemetery to use better men and women than he will ever be as a pr backdrop.
65. Might I remind readers that Pat King lied about loosing a leg in combat in Afghanistan though he never served a day in the military in his life and had to apologize when caught in this lie?
66. So what I'm saying Pat is keep those men's and women's names out of your lying, filthy, disgusting, cowardly, mouth.
67. Uhm, what?

First, you realize that Lich has at this point very little control of what people are doing on the ground right @JimWatsonOttawa?

Second, see the first point.

Third, what?!?!

70. Alex Vriend continues to look at Windsor and whine that things are so unfair!
71.
72. Total aside question.

Having watched all the money being raised by far-right grifters and QAnon cranks, I have to wonder if I made a similar effort could I do the same thing?
73. I would also be much more honest and transparent about what I would use the money for.

I promise, for your (X amount) donation, I will only spend it in the best craft beers and ports it could buy. Like, I would go all Bacchanalia on y'all!
74. Orrrrr, I could instead ask you to donate to a charity who could really use the help during these rather trying times.

Probably a better idea, eh?
75. Well this isn’t cool.

ottawacitizen.com/news/national/…
77. Heading to Alberta and the Coutts border blockade, QAnon promoter Logan Murphy providing updates on Telegram.
78. I combined videos for brevity.
79. I wasn't sure if Murphy was there himself but the audio in the video and his own pictures sort of confirmed that he is there.
80. Murphy's presence is interesting in that he was at the Capitol during the January 6 insurrection taking photos. There isn't any evidence I had he entered the building, but he was on the grounds and is certainly proud of his participation.

81. He has also taken to harassing people at Remembrance Day events in Calgary.

83. Regarding this current insurrection, Murphy's own rhetoric has become increasingly concerning.

84. This will absolutely rip apart and show any rifts that have grown among the particpants.

85. Back at the Coutts border crossing, it seems clear that American agitators have joined the Canadians.

I imagine they didn't cross the border legally.
86. Charming.
87. Note the flags.
88. Apparently they are melting down on Telegram.

Hey, remember when Pat claimed the "war room" had been infiltrated?

I wonder if he was setting things up to claim that this agreement is illegitimate?

89. Remember how Pat was going tp give the pipe to "Grandma Nancie" to hold until he is worthy of being a pipe carrier.

Yeah... I don't think that lovely lady who Pat used wants anything to do with him any longer.

91. This clip I took was from a video Pat King recorded at the Alberta Legislature during that occupation. It is purposely out of context, but strangely far more honest than Pat King has ever been.
93. If police forces, such as the @OttawaPolice, are going to stand by and let a group of lawless people intimidate and threaten people in their own communities, they best not be surprised when those same people have had enough.

94. Oh man, Ottawa made @TheDailyShow.

And not for a good reason.

I hope @jordanklepper stays for the growing counter-protests.

instagram.com/p/CZ2YLHvlDnI/…
95. Back to Pat King, turns out he pissed off the "intel guys" whose hilarious "code names" he released.

This is the clip he put on Telegram as he claims he is locked out of Facebook again.
96. He gives a non-apology apology, deflects blame, and claims that they have really good people who can get into places to find ip addresses and stuff.

Clip ends as Pat King says he can't leave Ottawa and the trucks....
97. Okay, turns out the whole thing is on his FB page.

Turns out the group he said were suspected infiltrators didn't like being called potential infiltrators... which is exactly something an infiltrator WOULD say!

Hey, Pat. Did you ask them for their badge numbers? lol
98. Pat minimizes the counter-protest as people who were paid to oppose them as a media event but who have now "crawled back under their rocks."

Word is those counter-protesters made the trucks leaving scrape of their decals before the were allowed to leave one at a time. :)
99. A reminder that Pat King has a very thin skin despite claiming to have big shoulders.

The man really doesn't like being criticized.
100. People are upset that Pat hasn't mentioned Windsor. He says they are holding the line (uhm...) and that he can't be everywhere at once. Besides, he implies it is sort of Windsor's fault they got shut down and it "had nothing to do with [him]".
101. Finally Pat King says that men need to start apologizing when they are wrong and then pats himself on the back for his non-apology apology.

For the second day in a row, irony is dead.
102. Jeremy MacKenzie (Plaid Army/Diagolon defacto leader) posted this spectacularly tone def mean implying that white people are victims and that the police would never come down hard on POC or leftists who were protesting to which I ask, what colour is the sky in their world?
103. *tone deaf meme

Stupid fingers are being stupid!
105. More of the "peaceful protests" at the BC border.

cbc.ca/news/canada/br…
106. You won't be surprised to learn "The Epoch Times" is very excited about the various occupations in the country.
107. Here's an interview I did last year regarding "The Epoch Times" and their role in fueling the growth of right-wing extremism.

signalhfx.ca/right-wing-fri…
113. Read. This. Thread.

Hey Toronto, you want to be outdone by #OttawaStrong?

114. I was on a phone with a friend (a priority, btw) so I didn't get a chance to address this until now.

Like I thought, Pat King is claiming the letter of agreement between @JimWatsonOttawa and the leadership to move out of residential areas is a lie.
115. I'm not going to clip this, but pat is claiming the letters are faked and urged truckers not to move from the residential areas.

He blames the counter-protesters today for disseminating the letter.
116. The letter that the media has been reporting spelling out the agreement his here.
117. Conservative journalist @brianlilley praised this as a step forward and also includes a bit of a backhand to the Federal government who refused to negotiate.

Remember that @PierrePoilievre and @CandiceBergenMP have demanded the government negotiate.
118. Well, it appears that Tamara Lich, perhaps receiving backlash from occupiers on the ground, has re-evaluated her promise.
119. Same thing happened at Coutts. The agreed to and promised to leave... then they broke their promise as well.

So to @PierrePoilievre and @CandiceBergenMP, a couple of questions.
120. First, who should the government negotiate with? Tamara Lich's group? Pat King's faction? The faux Queen of Canada Romana Didulo? The accelerationist such as Canada First and the Plaid Army/Diagolon?

All with competing agendas.
121. Also, how do you negotiate with people who are so willing to break their promises rendering anything they say meaningless?
122. So back to Pat King's crypto scam and full disclosure that I don't know shit about crypto (my losses are proof of that).

The person who sent this to me however does appear to know about crypto and noted something very interesting.
124. Hmmmm, I wonder who those holders might be?

Maybe...?
127. Back to Pat King's crypto project, I figure I would save this screen shot for posterity.
128. I finally got around to checking out some of the other social media profiles I keep tabs on.

Jim Kerr and his group was in the midst of the counter-protest.
129. The video is lengthy and cut into three parts but it illustrates just how sick and tired Ottawa residents are of having to deal with the occupation of their city and disruption to their lives.
130.
131.
132. A sample of comments left show just how much of a bubble supporters of the occupation are living in.
133. Other videos follow though I'm not going to post all of them.
134.
135. The last video (also in two parts) have Kerr's group trying to reach their friends.
136. I bet he was triggered!
137. It must be hard knowing how much people want you to be gone when you have convinced yourselves you'd be greeted as conquering hero's.
138. And again the comments show just how out of touch the supporters of the #OttawaOccupation are.
139. Well Tyler, given you're an unoriginal knock-off of Nick Fuentes, you certainly are as fake as the Donald.

However I would rather not imagine you with a spray tan.
141. In a tweet shared by Jeremy McKenzie, we are again reminded that there really is no one steering the ship right now.
143. Anyone feel like they are getting whiplash?
147. The "controversial" background of @OmarAlghabra that the speaker is talking about is that he is a Muslim-Canadian.

Let's not pretend it is anything other than that.
148. Okay, it is long past bed time. I do however have some interesting tweets set up for tomorrow morning though.

The words of the day? Infighting, confusion, and rifts.

With that here is Parliament Hill at 2:24 am est. The other webcams I've been looking at appear to be down.

2. Parliament Hill at 9:18 am est and other webcam images at various times this morning. ImageImageImageImage
3. So yesterday I listened to a Twitter Spaces meeting and Q&A with some of the leadership including BJ Dichter. It was an often acrimonious discussion, much related to the letter Tamara Lich and @JimWatsonOttawa negotiated. Suffice it to say there is dissention. ImageImage

Okay, a brain palate cleanser.

I find myself watching YouTube more than I do even streaming services.

And because I often expose myself to mental drek, I need things that help to relax me.

Hence, mudlarking videos. 1/8
So with that, my first recommendation (no particular order, btw).

Nicola White (@TideLineArt) is charming and incredibly knowledgeable. She is also a pipe whisperer because she can sniff out clay pipes like a bloodhound can track a fugitive. 2/8

youtube.com/channel/UC2K7y…
Second recommendation is Simon of Si-finds (@si_finds)

Simon also sells some of his finds on Etsy (I think he still does) as well as his Mudlover merch. 3/8

2. Parliament Hill at 9:30 am est.
3. So it seems that there is also now a protest delaying traffic at the Ottawa airport.

If this if the "freedoming" Pat King was referring to last night, then weak.

67. Another example of the real danger these convoy's are putting people through.

69. Plaid Army/Diagolon hate group members Alex Vriend and Jeremy MacKenzie are in Ottawa. Though somewhat celebratory, they also seem tense.
