Right, and of all the tyrannical countries to complain about, Canada is right on top of the list!

Well - as you pointed out - I think what appealed to some people was a political kinship with the truckers. No one really gives a shit about Canadian politics. (Not even Canadians....)

As a Canadian/British dual-national living in the US, I must admit I find the politics of the north quite reassuring

I can understand people outside the country being disinterested, after all other than a few arcane international trade and investment policies what happens here politically is no consequence to others. But to include Canadians themselves among the disinterested is a quite an exaggeration.

I'm being cheeky, but I grew up in Canada and moved to the States a few years ago.
Political discussion in Canada are positively anodyne compared the U.S. In the years of Trump, I wouldn't be surprised if American politics got more front-page coverage in Canada than Canadian politics.

Stop and look how the Ottawa protest has been framed (and I do mean framed) in Canadian media. I often complain about the bias of American media. Nice to know our friends to the North are not one whit better.
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

Yeah - they're taking their cues from twitter and the same sort of thinkers as American journalists.
BLM was a big deal in Canada. The way the residential school controversy unfolded as followed an American-media type pattern.
Polities are starting to create some connective tissue across countries.

Roger that. I was aware that you are originally from here - the lower mainland if I’m not mistaken. Politics there is different from anywhere else in country.
Very different. I sometimes call it fake Canada for a few different reasons.

Since you posted that shitshow Tucker Carlson presented on the protests, I have made a point of checking daily what Fox News is posting about it on their website.
Hate to tell you but what Fox is posting bears little or no relation to what is actually happening here or how resentful the vast majority of Canadians are feeling towards these protests. In fact I would it put it to you that Fox is deliberately publishing outright lies with intent to sow disinformation and incite militancy. A lot of what it gets appears to come from Rebel News, a Canadian fake news site that caters to the lunatic fringe of the Canadian anglophone right wing - you know, the same vermin with the arms and ammo that were arrested Monday am at the Coutts border crossing.
So there you have it. Your sources are more shit than any of those I rely upon.
But I am certain that doesn’t come as surprise to just me alone on this forum. It should not to you either.

Eat your pablum like a good lad.
The same media sources you ballyhoo, have been instrumental in one of the most egregious and continued lies to the world. And believe it or not, FOX commentary got it right.
For many years, a goodly number of Russians believed Pravda. Didn't mean the paper was right.

Horrible timing for Trudeau - he's having a showdown with the anti-mandate forces at the precise moment that many are thinking that the acute phase of the pandemic may be over. Pulling back will look like a capitulation. But them be the breaks.

That's why I wrote earlier, I thought the best thing for him to do was meet privately with some of the protest leaders, make muttering non-supportive, but not denigrating sounds and throw the whole thing back on the provinces.

Don't get your blood pressure up. At your age it's not good for you.
