I’m being told that PM Justin Trudeau had to politely break it to Harry and Meghan that he’d seen the internal polling numbers and no way in hell were Canadian taxpayers going to foot the bill for their multi-million dollar security detail. No welfare for celebrity ex-Royals, or something. So Meghan said fuckoff I’m going to Beverly Hills and took her castrated husband with her, and now Trump says no taxpayer-funded security here, either, princess.

This Jagmeet Singh incident is pretty troubling for anyone with respect for the Westminster system. A leader being named after a rush of blood to the head while rare is hardly worth writing home about.
To still be banging on about it two days later and showing such contempt for the chair I'm not quite sure I've seen before in any country in the past three decades?
Politically and intellectually dumb.

Scarcely believable what's going on in Canada right now.
Lockdown totalitarianism, Bill C10 to censor YouTube creators, locking a pastor in maximum confinement for exceeding 15% capacity of church goers for 35 days awaiting a trial with charges that don't enforce a jail term.
According to one correspondent the government either owns or subsidies 99% of the media so the push is to regulate individual content as though it were legacy media.
It seems the Canadians are too Canadian (polite and considerate) to kick up much of a fuss, but one gets the feeling that patience is wearing thin.
Really really strange and ominous carry on in a democracy with a reputation of being very functional.

Given the size of the crowd I'm sure there were all sorts of people there, but the messages I've seen from them hasn't been anti vaccine, but anti mandate. Those two things are not even close to the same thing - I'm vaccinated and pretty strongly against the idea of mandates, and I can assure you I have nothing in common with someone like Tamaki.

Aah.... a neutral take by Stuff

@frank and Reuters who have absolutely zero links to any pharma or world economic institutions...😉.
All those trucks. All those freight companies foregoing business because they deem the protest cause worthy. But no, let's pretend people are "dancing" (in sub zero temps) on a memorial as the main takeaway from this story of "a minority fringe". Oh, and let's write "violence" too.

Couple of thunks ...

Anyone who doesn't get vaxxed is an idiot

Being against vaccine mandate does not make you anti vax
-
Am astonished that there are people that think being anti mandate makes you anti vax
-
Am astonished that there are people that think being anti mandate makes you fascist
-
Am sad that there are lefties that think that the opinions of "the proletariat" are fascist

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) (aka Justin Trudeau’s campaign team) despises disinformation and misinformation and wants to police all content on the internet.
