The freedom convoy of antivaxers here in Canada are a bunch of facist pigs.

Seriously, I have no life.
BTW? You think the invocation of the Emergency Act was a facist move considering it was in place in less than two weeks before being removed? I think the Canadian economy and inflation is far more pressing than asking permission for implementing the act after the fact.
No, 'fascist pigs' was used in the title, to describe the tucker convoy.

I have no idea why that post was quoted- I didn't intend that.

Another useless debate will that will prevent the government from moving ahead to do what's best for Canada.
A Public Inquiry is not a debate.

A public inquiry is an official investigation into a specific issue or event that is ordered by a municipal, provincial, territorial or federal governmental body. Public inquiries are typically ordered in response to matters of significant public concern and tend to attract a great deal of media interest. Public inquiries have a long history in Canada. Until 2006, public inquiries were known as ‘Royal Commissions’. It was a Royal Commission which, in 1840, led to the passage of the Act of Union, establishing a single province of Canada. Since Confederation, over 500 public inquiries have been commissioned covering topics ranging from the decline of sockeye salmon in the Fraser River, the 1985 bombing of Air India Flight 182, the contamination of the national blood supply in the 1970s and 1980s, and the disproportionally high rates of violence and homicide against Indigenous women and girls. Public inquiries examine the facts underlying an issue or event, including any factors that may have caused or contributed to it, and provide recommendations to the government to improve public policy.

I realize that it's in the thread title, but can we dispense with flinging the F-word around? The convoy to Washington thread got outta control and shut down.

You're talking of the F-word in this thread title: Freedom? @3db didn't use any coarse language in his posting. :p

So did the convoy itself. Four trucks from Pennsyltucky shoed up and then went home. No trouble going in this morning except for the freezing rain. However more to come next week maybe for the state of the union address. We shall see where they go and how they are tolerated. I hope we do better than they did in Ottawa dealing with them.

I hope they learned something from Ottawa's experience, i.e. do NOT let them set up camp in a similar fashion. I can see the impetus for such protests fading, as restrictions are gradually dropping. The protestors up here were pushing on a door that was already in the process of opening. Quite silly, really. Of course, the trucker convoy was just the "vehicle" for the organizers of that protest who had a more lengthy agenda than just getting vaccination mandates dropped for truck drivers.

My real concern was a "rolling roadblock" 4-6 trucks abreast on the beltway at the minimum speed of 45 mph would back the whole ring up and aside from no trucks in the left lane prohibition may not be all that illegal. The Massachusetts state cops did something similar at 55 mph back in the eighties and created massive traffic jams, all to enforce the speed limit.

Fascism. It gets flung around so much - in both directions - that it's becoming meaningless.
The swastika symbol, 卐 or 卍, today primarily recognized in the West for its use by the Nazi party, is an ancient religious icon in various Eurasian cultures. It is used as a symbol of divinity and spirituality in Indian religions, including Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism. These wack jobs who were flying it affiliated its meaning to the Nazi party who were facists. Trudeau and government are not facists, just twits that had the well being of its citizens in mind.

So you're saying that Trudeau and government are a bunch of stupid people? That expression comes from British slang which is defined as a stupid personality.

Personally not stupid but the way communications in the pandemic was handled poorly and was often contradictory or confusing. The other thing I dont understand is why long haul truckers were targetted at this specific point in time? They were counted on to make the deliveries even before vaccinations were available. I dont understand the timing in all of this. It was more politically driven then required.

Interesting doc on the protest, with particular attention paid to the organizers.

Anyone who flies a flag really should know what it stands for. The convoy was protesting Trudeau's mandates, restricting their lack of freedom from the requirement for vaccination and masking- if they could live and work without being infecting or spreading COVID, should it really be mandatory, especially in light of the fact that the effects of the vaccines aren't permanent?

I seriously doubt the convoy would want fascism, based on the definitions.

Edit- Oh, No, Trell disagrees but once again, didn't write a response to show where he thinks I'm wrong. Maybe it's the first sentence. Yeah, that must be it.

Stop flicking boogers.

Well duh!!!!! Thankyou for pointing that out captain obvious. I mentioned later on in this thread that there was a fringe movement at play here but I guessed you missed the boat on that one too.
