#5 On Sunday night, police began removing gas and fuel supplies at a logistics encampment set up by protesters

Seems to recall certain maneuvers by Gen. Gates's redcoats in Concord the night of 18 April 1775

#7 Any totalitarian government will not abide looking foolish (ban comedians) and powerless (Ban protests).

If those things go on, you can expect the full force of violence for the state to come out and play.

#11 Civil disobedience is the way to go.

A coast-to-coast truckers' strike depriving the blue enclaves of their Whole Foods organic tofu, their bottled water and their heating oil will bring the Wokesters to (both) their knees in short order.

#12 I don't think it would have to be coast to coast, just confine the truck strike to Ottawa and Toronto. Let the residents out, but don't let them back in.

#14 Meanwhile in Canada:
On Monday, Ontario Superior Court Justice Hugh McLean issued a 10-day injunction, effective as of yesterday, banning stationary trucks from honking their horns in the Freedom Convoy.

Put it into gear, move an inch forward - HONK! Put it into a different gear, back up an inch - HONK!

#17 CBC has become so obviously a State Propaganda organ that the bias is nearly palpable. Do these people have no integrity whatsoever?
