1. I don't put a lot of time towards covering Romana Didulo, the self-proclaimed queen of Canada and now the world (she promoted her self and has been assigning viceroys in other countries). Still, sometimes she warrants some attention as a result of escalating behavior.
2. Didulo has in the past frequently urged her followers to send cease and desist orders to schools, hospitals, post offices, etc ordering them to end mask mandates. She has also suggested those who don't comply will be executed.
4. As recently as this past November Didulo was ramping up her rhetoric. Her followers were also increasingly excited about the ensuing retribution faced by their Queen's enemies.
5. A visit from the police however resulted in a significant decline in the violent rhetoric which strongly suggests, contrary to the belief that she is mentally unwell, that Didulo knows what she is doing and knew enough to tone it down,
6. During the #OttawaOccupation she decided to take a royal tour of her realm. She and a select group of followers rented a camper van and set out for Ottawa in February. It has now been 6 months and she is still on the road.
7. Romana Didulo is still causing harm. She has encouraged her followers to stop paying bills and mortgages claiming she has forgiven all debts. Those who have done as she has demanded have faced the inevitable price.
9. So that leads us up to today where Romana seems to have escalated her rhetoric once again and is ordering her followers to arrest members of the Peterborough Police. Why she chose this city is an open question right now.
10. Her followers commenting were excited and eager to participate. I have highlighted some of the more interesting comments.
11. A more detailed pronouncement followed. She wants followers to livestream the arrests which are to take place August 13.
12. However originally there had been an error as the pronouncement was for August 13, 2023. Although it was corrected I found it interesting to see how quickly people said that it wasn't a mistake because their queen doesn't make mistakes.
13. Her followers also jump at the opportunity to be among those given the honour of making arrests.
14. However, some also wonder if they shouldn't also broaden their list of people to be arrested. One who appears to be an American suggests adding lawyers, pharmacists, teachers, the FBI, Democrats, and "RINO"'s
15. And despite the suggestion that this is all to take place peacefully, comments about buying guns and learning how to use them suggest otherwise.
16. And there is no question about the penalty for violating Romana Didulo's edicts.
17. She created another site for those who wish to sign up.
18. And her followers thank her for doing the heavy lifting to make their lives better.
I mean, they aren't better now. In fact those who have followed demands to the letter are really suffering as a result. However good times are around the corner... I guess?
19. I should also mention that Didulo herself is currently touring the Atlantic provinces and there is no indication that she herself will be present during these attempted arrests.
I mean, the queen can't be placed in any danger I guess. That's why you have cannon fodder.

1. So I've spent the past 24 hours or so monitoring the Canadian far-right's reaction to the search of Donald Trump's residence Mar-a-Lago. It is mostly as you would expect.
Let's start with Tyler Russell who founded Canada First but is now apparently a full-time US resident.
2. Russell was among the Trump supporters who showed up at Mar-a-Lago to show their support for the disgraced former President.
3. And since he isn't subtle about his beliefs, Tyler Russell embraces fascism and the use of the state apparatus, should his kind achieve power, to target all he deems to be the enemy.
Really, this is a very clear example of when someone tells you who they are, believe them.
1. I decided to look at who was reacting to the claim by Marcus Ray from the "freedom movement" and the September 11 convoy plan, but as I was checking out some of the usual suspects I came across these guys who I will write about later.
This image is a preview.
2. In any case Ray claimed he was stepping away as a result of the negative attention based on, you know, his past shady behaviour.
1. This past week I posted a thread regarding Marcus Ray and his "peaceful, totally not an insurrection" that he has been promising for months. He suggested it would take place in the second week of September and in the "middle of the country".
1. It has been a while since I've written about Marcus Ray. Here are some of the previous threads I've done for some background if you aren't aware of him.
1. Over the past several weeks the January 6 committee has been exposing the length to which then President Donald Trump and his allies tried to maintain power which culminated in a violent insurrection, fomented my trump, and the Capitol. #Jan6Hearings
2. I think most of us were pretty attuned to what was goin on that January 6, 2021 and Trump supporters stormed the Capitol in order to stop the certification of the presidential election lost by Trump which was immediately claimed by him and his allies to be fraudulent.
3. But while most people were focused on what was happening in DC itself, I was looking at the reaction of Canadian Trump supporters and considering the implications for Canadian political discourse.
