Pierre Poilievre exploited the “FREEDUMB CONVOY” occupation of Ottawa to build his brand.

Opportunistic exploitation of the Canadian public’s frustration is not a valid excuse for inciting and openly supporting lawlessness & anarchism. Which is what Poilievre and CPC did.
Pierre Poilievre is toxic. He willingly chose to attach his political party leadership campaign & his higher ambitions to become Prime Minister of Canada to an illegal occupation. He capitalized on the frustration of people suffering from almost 2 years of pandemic restrictions.
But we must thank Poilievre for exposing the true nature of the CPC underbelly. It is NOT conservative. It’s a toxic form of far right LIBERTARIANISM. Anarchy is not freedom. Lawlessness is not liberty.

Regardless of what Poilievre promotes.
While the POEC report reveals there was no coordinated leadership within the protesters who descended upon Ottawa, the report made it clear that Ontario’s provincial govt and local & provincial law enforcement’s abandonment of rule of law contributed to the chaos.
What kind of a leader encourages and capitalizes upon descent into anarchy created by a mob of angry, fearful and misinformed people to build support for his bid for leadership?

The answer is Poilievre.
What kind of political party undermines the duly elected federal government chosen by the electorate only months before? That would be Conservative Party of Canada.

After subverting their own leader, they had no issue with subverting the Canadian electorate’s democratic choice.
Who removes dissent from the public square that has become Twitter?

The public has become dependent upon Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and other media to collectively gather and exchange ideas and opinions.

How many people have recently been silenced on Twitter?
It’s ironic that most people believe Canada to be laid back, peaceful and democratic when it produces people like Poilievre, Harper, Manning and Musk.

There are still some dark corners in Canada that require sunshine ☀️ to cleanse the corruption. The POEC report is a beginning.
Canadians must choose between democracy or chaos dominated by right libertarian demagogues.

Sure, LPC needs to shape up and quit making ethical mishaps.

God forbid people interpret the carelessness caused by haste and the threat of anarchy brought by CPC to vote for CPC.
Women of Canada need to speak up now. The grift has been exposed.

CPC and their provincial counterparts are a conglomerate of far right SoCon libertarians seeking an end to Canadian federalism. Why?

The Canadian Constitution and Charter protect KEY human rights & freedoms.
The right to express opinions freely is KEY to freedom and liberty.

While convoy participants claim their rights were violated, a respected and learned judge revealed today that was not accurate. Regardless of what politicians, mainstream media & con pundits repeatedly claimed.
But now corporate executives have installed themselves as the arbiters of free speech and expression and removed effective dissenters to far right propaganda.

It’s a ploy to get Canadians confused.

Suspending left activists is meant to build concern about Bill C-11.
That’s how these manipulative saboteurs and provocateurs work.

T.O. and IsisWise were strategic targets. Highly popular, trending in the left progressive Twitter community. Silencing them is noticeable, controversial and fascistic (read the attached article in tweet 1).
Manipulation is one thing. But this is next level Maskirovka. Twitter has become a very unsafe public square. Allegorically, Elmo’s overt support for Russian interests in Ukraine puts the permanent suspensions of Canadian progressive activists in perspective.
Private ownership of such a crucial communications medium has clearly been revealed as a threat to global democracy, not just Canada’s.

No other communications medium has an anarchist foundation. Print media, radio broadcast, television broadcast. Every medium has regulations. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Not the internet. Why not?

Because it’s the last realm of ANARCHY where libertarians can rule & control using propaganda, Maskirovka, provocation, incitement of hatred, incitement of violence & hybrid warfare. Why do you think cons are so adamant the internet not be regulated?
Why are Canadian and foreign adversaries of democracy fighting Bill C-11 in Canada, digital regulation in US, digital legislation in the EU and Australia?

Because far right libertarians want an unregulated environment. A lack of regulation permits the strongest to dominate. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Deregulation is the ambition of far right libertarians so their elaborate infrastructure of saboteurs, provocateurs, influencers, politicians, think tanks, donor foundations and authoritarian governments can take control of everything. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Basically erasing the last millennia of legal code and reining in the toxic autocratic systems of monarchic, aristocratic, oligarchic & ochlocratic rule that impose arbitrary regulation by personal whim tyrants have imposed throughout history.
That’s why they were removed. To manipulate the left’s fear that regulation would give elites more power. Because moderates respect legitimate authority.

I’m watching Poilievre say exactly this on CBC in his response to the POEC report.

Lie after lie after lie.
Demagogic populist rhetoric about common sense, poverty, MAID (not abortion), inflation. As the response to a judge’s report that stated clearly that partisan politics created this conflict, inflamed the conflict and required a last resort drastic measure of invoking the EA.
Poilievre is stating that PMJT is a tool of Chinese foreign regime.

But who signed the 31 year sovereignty limiting FIPA with China? Conservative Party of Canada in 2012.
Poilievre just called CBC biased against him and conservatives.

This is fascistic propaganda meant to undermine every CBC journalist and report.

That’s who Poilievre is. An unoriginal Trump wannabe fascist pipsqueak.

Suspend me for that Twitter. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Here is why he’s so terrified and using fascistic methods to distract from his failure as a human being, never mind as a leader.

cbc.ca/news/canada/ca…
It’s no secret that McKenzie and Poilievre were connected.

What every Canadian needs to ask themselves is whether CPC has sunk to the level of using a radicalized antigovernment private militia to interfere in Canadian democracy? Proud Boys were already banned.
Other more well known radicalized white supremacists were under surveillance because of the American J6 event a year before.

This inquiry can’t answer those questions. But Canadians deserve truthful answers.

Not a weird flex.

Unfortunately for us, this is the only way people like Chris Barber get attention.

They have no other skills or abilities to display. Their only ability to gain notoriety is to be the thorn in our side.

It’s a pathetic flex.
Maybe if we gave these outcasts just a little more attention before they misbehave, we could avoid their unimaginative effort to be memorable by behaving like an asshole to as many people as possible.

However, that’s would require acknowledgement of mediocrity and banality.
These folks are, in essence, the epitome of forgettable. Society would be required to reorganize to create meaningful roles and responsibilities for the mediocre. Because frankly, most of us are mediocre.

It is the dullness of status quo which permits the mediocre to excel.

Don’t you dare blame Canadian centrist and left wing politicians for the apparent BS being demonstrated by far right saboteurs in Atlantic Canada.

We are done with “both sides” have very fine people or divisive leaders.

This is a saboteur’s destabilization narrative.
No right exists to access crown land. And private land which abuts common/crown land must be protected from forest fires.

The forest is literally a tinderbox and every precaution must be taken. Individual rights don’t exist when the possibility of massive destruction is a risk.
The narratives being offered by libertarians, chaos agents, saboteurs, democratic subversion agents and “free-men-on-the-land” are designed to create doubt about the legality of the mandates and fines.

None of the rest of us are prepared to sacrifice the province.

This is the interesting and relevant part Gil.

Many Canadian’s lives and livelihoods are on the line. Trump has imposed additional tariffs to the 2.5% Canadian exporters would generally pay to avoid the costs of being CUSMA compliant. That’s no longer an option.
Changes in the environment require adaptation to preserve viability.

Canada is not forcing vendors and exporters to adopt one position over another. But the federal government has chosen to pivot and seek alternative markets rather than cow-tow to a maniacal wannabe dictator.
Exporters have options. Keep trading with US and become CUSMA compliant or find a new market.

Personally I believe doing both would be an easier transition for any vendor who is heavily reliant on US trade markets.

So I came across a post from this Postmedia journalist and had to use it in a lesson about propaganda.

It’s so blatant, and will make comprehension of complex issues easier for those who find policy discussions boring or difficult to follow.
My new project is tying current issues to policy content so everyone can understand what behaviours, values and opportunities policies are attempting to change, influence or create.

Deconstructing this propaganda is helpful to learn how policy works.

So you must read the article to comprehend its deconstruction.

The headline is titillating and grabs the attention of the consumer immediately.

Non-citizen immigrant gets off easy for attempting sex with what he thought was 15 year old.

Who wouldn’t be against that?

It’s interesting that so many switch allegiances with every utterance.

If you’re observant you can see who among your follows is unable to trust what’s happening is in their best interests.

“There is nothing to fear but fear itself” is good advice about now.
FDR was judged harshly when he shut down banks immediately after being elected.

In fact most of the sentiments being expressed now are not new. Similar sentiments were echoed across the US and Canada against FDR and Hoover & R.J. Bennett and Mackenzie King.
History doesn’t repeat, but it rhymes and right now it’s rhyming.

Past fascists didn’t have modern technology, but they did have memes and political cartoons.

Most are the very same rhetoric we hear today.

So I’m going to do a cartoon essay to prove it. Image

It amazes me how easily people respond to radical left & right propaganda.

The radical left declares PMMC to be worse than Harper and people believe it without question.

Why?

These radicalized extremist assholes are no different than the far right. They play on your fears.
However, this incident does indicate PMMC may require the assistance of professional comms team to emphasize what he is saying. I’m not a professional comms expert, but I can read bureaucratic speak. And that’s what this post is; clear concise bureaucratic language. Image
PMMC probably believes it is difficult to misinterpret. But there is a major discrediting campaign being conducted against him. And I don’t believe he has much experience with this level of disinformation.

So he requires an experienced professional counter propagandist’s help.
