    Sorry Sid, I thought you were referring to Trudeau's general comment about the group as Nazi supporters carrying confederate flags and other fringe groups.

    I didn't venture down there at all.

    Perhaps Brad Thomson could provide a first hand account of the complexion of the trucker's occupying group.

    But don't get me wrong, Sid ... I'm not a fan of this Trudeau.

    My hope is that we ALL learn from our mistakes.







    Neil , you provided somebody else’s account. My question was
    what did YOU see? Was the crowd a bunch of right wing Nazis
    as Trudeau described?

    like to you?

    That false characterization by Trudeau was simply a rationalization for not meeting with these people. If you want to blame someone, blame Trudeau, who ended
    up having to do what they wanted anyways. The protestors fully expected a resolution during the protest phase.

    Many Canadian flags were flying in Ottawa this weekend. Protesters marched with them and truckers festooned their rigs with them, and some Ottawa residents attached them from their cars in support of the protests.

    However, it is an affront to all Canadians that the Nazi flag was flying in their midst. It is surreal that racist groups like the National Socialist Black Metal (Aryan black metal) movement felt sufficiently emboldened to proudly wear their jackets at the protests.
    But don't get me wrong, Sid ... I'm not a fan of this Trudeau.

    My hope is that we ALL learn from our mistakes.

    For anyone ... anyone at all ... I had this very same exchange with Jesse Waters of Fox News too ... go ahead and spin Trudeau's actions however you'd like ... undemocratic, unconstitutional, uncivilized ... then go ahead be honest enuff to ask the same of Ottawa's residents, Ottawa's business owners, Ottawa's property tax payers too.

    Ottawa residents are pretty much pissed off ... still are.

    Protesters closure of our rail system ... drought ... water rationing ... raising property taxes year after year after year ... then a bunch of well organized anti-vax truckers try to occupy our city streets. Seriously ... you think that's going to last long?

    How long does it take before a protest turns into an occupation?

    Costing Ottawa over 1 million per day for security alone?.

    How long?
    ...

    Push came to shove.

    We pushed back.
    ...

    Come ahead and protest in our streets all you like ... but don't ever try to occupy our city streets.

    Thanks so much.

    ...

    I'm STILL unvaxxed ... I get it.

    I do.

    “The Canadian mainstream media acted as an amen chorus of the Canadian government,” Murray argued. “Now why is this is rancid? So utterly, utterly, rancid and corrupt? Because in this country your media–your mainstream media–is funded by the government.”

    We encourage all U.S. citizens to keep a 14-day supply of medications, bottled water, and food for yourself and any members of your household.

    Interesting to note that there has been only 1 Covid related death reported in the last 6ix months in all of China ...

    Do CT'ers think it should now become it's own separate Non-chess topic? I, personally, think it is a critical issue for the globe's future, and will affect all aspects of human life.

    If so, I'd be willing to start the new thread.

    But I think there are others posting in this thread who are likely more knowledgeable on this topic than yours-truly.

    Let me know whether a new separate thread is a good idea.

    Both are integrally related to the WEF.

    That holds true in non-pandemic times also...

    My point though is that governments closed parks, recreation centres, gyms, etc. but kept open places to get junk food, fast food, etc. I'm thinking the percentage of the population that is now morbidly obese has gone up, not down, during a pandemic where one of the greatest risk factors is ... being morbidly obese.

    That was my thinking too when I created this graphic ...

    Dear friends and foes of Stilum Curiae, we offer for your attention this important talk by Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò at the event sponsored by Medical Doctors for Covid Ethics International. Happy reading and circulation.

    “… Just in the past few days, at the G-20 Bali summit, Klaus Schwab instructed heads of government – almost all coming from the Young Global Leaders for Tomorrow program of the World Economic Forum – about the future steps to be taken in view of establishing a world government. The president of a very powerful private organization with enormous economic means exercises undue power over world governments, obtaining their obedience from political leaders who have no popular mandate to subject their nations to the delusions of power of the elite: this fact is of unprecedented gravity.

    Klaus Schwab said: “In the fourth industrial revolution, the winners will take it all, so if you are a World Economic Forum first mover, you are the winners” (here). These very serious statements have two implications: the first is that “the winners will take it all” and will be “winners” – it is not clear in what capacity and with whose permission. The second is that those who do not adapt to this “fourth industrial revolution” will find themselves ousted and will lose – they will lose everything, including their freedom.

    In short, Klaus Schwab is threatening the heads of government of the twenty most industrialized nations in the world to carry out the programmatic points of the Great Reset in their nations. This goes far beyond the pandemic: it is a global coup d’état, against which it is essential that people rise up and that the still healthy organs of states start an international juridical process. The threat is imminent and serious since the World Economic Forum is capable of carrying out its subversive project, and those who govern nations have all become either enslaved or blackmailed by this international mafia….”
