Just pointing out that what seems “extreme” as a sanction against a truck driver that blockades a busy city street would be demanded by every pilot on this forum if it were a pilot blocking a runway.
There is a shortage of truck drivers.

There is no shortage of pilots.
So if there were a shortage of pilots, Transport Canada should hold off on enforcement actions?
I have no idea. You’re the educated one.

But boy from my chair, how so many educated people can be so unbelievably stupid on this.

Obtuse — there’s an educated word! I know one!

Omicron —- is not Delta. A ten-year old understands this. The PHD’s and exalted elite political leaders, that we are all supposed to genuflect down to, apparently do not.

What part of that exactly, is not understood?

The fact of the matter, is apparently a substantial number of Canadians have lost confidence in their Federal Government’s leadership. That is abundantly obvious.

A no confidence vote is not out of line now.

We could do a blockade by simply not coming to work. Blocking runways would likely lead to criminal charges. I’m ok with legally and peacefully protesting in my personal truck but I’m not risking my career with that.

And I could act like a dick with an airplane and get away with it?

Cool.
Well, in the wake of the SNC scandal, justin refused to enforce contract sanctions in the name of 9000 supposed "jobs". Not only did SNC act like a dick, but justin as well. So yah, you could get away with it if you're a liberal. :)

What will the media, goaded by the Liberal Party, immediately label you as then?

Homophobic, Racist, Misogynistic, Toxic, White Supremacist, LGBT+++ hater?

Under the sarcastic comments, I’m really, really pissed.

The CBC and co are overtly fu———- with my country. They are TRYING to incite people to violence.

I’ve had a long talk about all of this with my own MP’s office. 40 minute very respectful phone call. FWIW!

Oh, and if you ever take your children to ANY protest, they are preparing a standard that the Children’s Aid Society…..can seize your child.

Yes….I’m deliberately being provocative. But truthful.


https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/o ... -1.6343814

We'll rely on the Children's Aid Society to help provide and give us guidance around that. We just think it's an important factor that complicates and makes this an even more challenging operation."

In a statement to CBC, the society confirmed it is working with Ottawa police and said it has a duty to investigate allegations of abuse and whether a child may need protection.

Conservatives split on whether convoy protest should stay or vacate Parliament Hill

Real news warning, the broken con party is showing it's weakness to the world. I suspect another Lib majority is on it's way...way to go CPC goofs

There has to be a fall guy and Butts isn't gonna be it this time. The narrative is changing. Canadians are pissed. And JT's ego is only making it worse for him. A no confidence vote could very well be on the horizon and it would not surprise me one bit. The narcissist drama teacher has to go. And I hope when he does, his career in politics goes with him.

Looks like Iflygirls92 original account. The old man who created an account to pretend to be a woman. I never did get those PMs I asked for. Very disappointing.

That person also sent some very nasty private messages and I think it’s the same person. He gave me his name and I believe I know who it is although I won’t list the name as this person is off on long term disability and has obvious mental health issues.

CBC is like watching a pileup on a icy highway.

You can’t not watch. So many pileups.

Now we are hateful for flying the Canadian flag!

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british- ... -1.6344027

Experts say the flag represents a freedom to express viewpoints, as long as it's done in a peaceful way and doesn't bring harm to others. That includes people of all beliefs — they can share their views, as long as they aren't spreading hate.

Some people are going to be supporting the way the flag is being used in the protest and some people are going to be hurt by it, because flags have so much symbolism attached to them," Queen's University public policy professor Kathy Brock told Chris Walker, the host of CBC's Daybreak South.

Carmen Celestini, a postdoctoral fellow with Simon Fraser University's Disinformation Project, said the way the flag is being used by protesters is affecting Canadians' perception of not only the flag itself, but also Canada as a nation.

"We see ourselves as being Canada the good, the peacekeepers, and we're sort of having this thrust in front of us that perhaps that isn't completely true," she said.

"Throughout the pandemic, one of the notions that we've really been pushing is this trope of unity, we've all come together. We're now being absolutely confronted with the complete opposite of those notions and anger and hatred and articulations of disappointment and anger at our nation."

I've mentioned it before, a control freak will always apply more control, as their preferred option.

Now the OPS is trampling on the Charter Rights of children. :shock: It's disgusting.

So now all of the protestors are child abusers too?

See how this works?

Smearing people with innuendo is much easier than charging them with a crime.

Every word the PM, Singh, the mayor, and the media has said, only raises my support for the protestors.
