🧵1/2 I am a long-time political activist and protestor, as are many of my friends. I'm accomplished at letter-writing campaigns targeting govt officials. Today my protestor friends and I agree that the so-called #FreedomConvoy created a turning of the tide of illegal protests.
2/2 We no longer support illegal protests and blockades of any public infrastructure highways, bridges, ports, railways, etc. We are changing our strategy and tactics to gain public support and govt attention. We are developing more effective means of sharing our messages.
Clear transportation corridors are required to keep the supply chains operating. Clear roadways are required for emergency servicing via firetrucks and ambulance runs to hospitals. Sit-ins on highways are dangerous for sit-ins & can trigger violent responses from motorists.
Do you support the same old same old approaches being used by groups like #ExtinctionRebellion, or do you withdraw your support for support illegal protests and blockades of all public infrastructure highways, bridges, ports, railways etc.?
What do you think? (1) Do you support the same old same old approaches being used by groups like #ExtinctionRebellion, (2) or do you withdraw your support for support illegal protests and blockades of all public infrastructure highways, bridges, ports, railways etc.?

1/2 HELLO! I see small l and big L liberals trolling each and every thread he, who I shall not name, tweets. They aren't informing any fence-sitters of his deceit. Despite their righteous indignation, They aren't doing anything different from what con bots and trolls are doing.
2/2 Here's an example, he, who I will not name started a thread 3 hours ago with Clifton Brown. Note all the responses in the thread are progressives TROLLING. They don't get the fact that HE is playing them. They are amplifying his message.
Every thread you troll results in con bots being sent out to troll liberal threads & sets your account up for being reported. We can all do better so let's prove that. Let his threads have ZERO responses. Start your own topical thread, do screenshots & don't use his name in it.
2/2 with stable outlook. In general, a credit rating is used by sovereign wealth funds, pension funds and other investors to gauge the credit worthiness of Canada thus having a big impact on the country's borrowing costs. tradingeconomics.com/canada/rating#Canadacreditrating
How Catholics Avoided Paying Millions in Reparations for Residential Schools. During its final weeks in office, the previous Conservative government under Stephen Harper reached a deal allowing the church to walk away from most of its obligations. nytimes.com/2022/04/02/wor…
Protestant churches paid about 9.2 million Canadian dollars. But the Catholic Church, which operated about 70 percent of the more than 130 schools, only paid 1.2 million of the 25 million Canadian dollars it agreed to raise in cash contributions as reparations.
In 1998, the Untied of Canada church apologized specifically for its role in Indian Residential Schools, and since 2008 has been actively engaged in the Truth and Reconciliation without any expensive journeys.
1/2 Bill S-233 calls for the creation of a national "framework" to allow the federal government to begin studying a "guaranteed livable basic income" program in Canada.
1/2 In other words, conservative #fearmongering has whipped-up "pawns" to catastrophize about a review that has yet to take place. Perhaps these people being used as pawns don't know the conservatives have opposed every social program ever brought before Parliament.
