aggresiveness breeds more aggresiveness and it does not solve the problem, people should be given the freedom to choose if they know the advantages and the disadvantages of what they have to choose from.

Canadians by and large hold the right to peaceful protest dear to our hearts. This however was not that. This was an occupation and shutdown of our capitol city. This was a blocking of vital border crossings with the US that played havoc with out economy, and threw people out of work. In typical Canadian fashion, we gave them plenty of time to climb back down on their own, which they refused. It was their choice that led to the Emergencies Act being invoked. The Emergencies Act has a 30 day shelf life, after which it returns to the commons to be decided on again.

In contrast, this weekend in Quebec City, truckers descended on the town for a weekend of protest and proceeded to park in an area designated by the police to park. This has largely gone off without a hitch with truckers expected to leave tonight.

a normal household knife can be used to kill some one or be used to save some ones life, it depends on whoes hand it is in and for what perpose, people see the same thing differently and so act differently. who is right and who is wrong depends on whoes side you are on and what the circumstances are for the action.

Who needs a knife? 1 finger is that is required to kill someone, or you could use a baseball bat, cricket bat, flame thrower, gun, a sauce pan lid (especially the glass ones), frying pan, a cup, electrocution, nicotine poisoning (leave 20 fags soaking in water over night and you've got enough nicotine to kill someone and its undetectable after 1 day, and if they smoke...even better still), a nail file....I could go on lol

you are opening the door for people to choose from, I do have a sauce pan but it is metal (staianless steel) and a small flame thrower for cooking food (lovely thoughts) I hope that you have not been testing the above articles out.

I read this in the morning news.
(In Ottawa City Council's first meeting since the dispersal of Freedom Convoy, officials voted to move Valentine's Day to March 14 . The constant honking that had permeated the city on the actual Valentine's Day was apparently too unromantic and a replacement date was needed.)
I thought, Thank god we are keeping our politicians busy.
Amazing what these people get paid for.

LOL yup

your politicians are so romatically minded they must find a way to show that they are on the job all hours.
