Niagara Bill

In my mind, they are trying to avoid cornering

Ok SoCal. Streets where people live and unable to sleep, park their cars, drive to their homes have been held captive for 19 days. Thus is not in a place like the Washingtin monu. The need for the Act is ridiculous, but supported by all political parties, a feat that us impossible in Washington. Yes Trudeau is a wimp, but has fairly treated the protesting citizens, but the time has come to allow other citizens to return to their homes.

You don't recall Geraldos incredible claim to fame, the SAFE. He has no cred, especially since he owes his very existence to trump.

Al Capone has invested his money in thus trucking blockade....

So, 100 people and trucks is allowed to force the gov to change direction. Not! 88% of people listened to the government and only a few did not. So you give in to the few. The rules are coming to an end, give in to rebels? Never! You have no idea what freedom means. Anarchy is not freedom. A small % cannot over rule the vast majority. A dictator would gave used force a long time ago.I am not a Trudeau fan, but patience has been good so far.

So, Westside, if you were Pres or Gov, regardless of party, and protesters held a portion of your capital city hostage for 1 or 2 weeks, what exactly would you do? It is a non violent scene, much different that the riots and looting in LA. So, since you obviously have superior intelligence, let us know. Difficult, but the mayor did, but leadership is not obvious in the protesters. Kind of like a big tailgate, only fir 3 weeks. They actually gave 3 portable saunas on site. And WTF do Republicans have to do with Canada?

Someone should gave told trump that...auuuugggh

After 17 yrs a season ticket holder, I swore during the Jauron era J was finished. Fans were 100% more passionate than that wet blanket. Slowly I was dragged back in, but never never ever will I allow myself the full passion I once felt. Josh has given me opportunity for hope and enjoyment loses still hurt but nothing like pre Jauron.

Now we know Rhinos new assignment

Emergency Measures Act invoked in Canada by Trudeau. Gives feds power and overrides civil liberties. As a Canadian I say a weak leader who does not engage his citizens in times like these hides behind laws. Except for a gang in Alberta who had guns etc, most folks have been peaceful. A real leader would not hide from his citizens. Trudeau has shown his cowardice. These are not Buffalo headress wearers. Most are family folks. The protest is out of hand, but this us a lack of skilled leadership, something sorely missing in NA. I expect failure and escalation. As a teen from the 60s. OHIO. Protestors nit about money

So his need to complain about not enough black head coaches in the NFL on SB Sunday, is just camouflage to his secret behind the scene pressure on Putin. 12 months ago I thought Biden had a knowledge of behind the scene bargaining, I was soooo wrong. AOC runs him, Even Nancy is quiet and running away in this woke culture Biden has bought into.

So, consider our leaders?. The two most powerful and dangerous people in the world, meet at the Olympics, and Biden and Trudeau take a symbolic stance and refuse to attend. What happened to being close to your enemy. How can you influence more, with an insult of someone who doesn't care, or participation. Nose to nose is how to deal with this. Feels like Chamberlan. Allowing those two to be seen running the show is stupid. Roosevelt, Nixon, Reagan showed leadership. These guys are imposters. In the mean time Trudeau watches peaceful protests on his front door and neither engages with his citizens or responds. And Biden is worried about the number of black head coaches in the NFL, calling it unacceptable!!! Rather than worry about a new war, he cuddles up to AOC. Wow, we are in trouble.

1. First the truckers may want to be left alone....but in reality they are NOT alone. Join the rest of society in the battle. 2. 1 finger in front if your face stops more virus than none, your hand in front of your face stops more than 1 finger, a mask stops more than your hand. Simple process. Always amazing how you pick and choose which CDC reports you want to accept. Suddenly there is no corruption or conspiracy. 3. Firing people is ridiculous and the courts will show that eventually, but stopping them from working temporarily is not stupid for society as a whole. When TB was a concern people who could be carriers were isolated until the disease could be understood. This virus is young and new, this is a societal challenge not about freedom. When measles spread anyone who came into contact with the infection had to isolate and not attend work. We lacked knowledge. People spent more time on China/Fauci conspiracies or bleach in your veins. 4. People can make a decision, but with every decision comes responsibility and consequences. They are fellow citizens and deserve respect, but others deserve there respect as well.

Would I be out of line to suggest that a couple of them could have been with KL Cool J on lipsync. Maybe could even have won and received praise from Chrissy T.

Logic is good if you have no problem wearing a simple mask to the grocery store. Do you drive with an open container of beer in Cali to flaunt the law which us trying to protect people, when there us freedom to have open containers in some counties in the country?

Agreed, but YOUR statement of death count being wrong is political. Almost every death has more than 1 cause, so this is nothing more than trying to justify ignoring 950,000. Some would have died by drunk drivers, but that doesn't matter because at the time they had a heart condition. That is a political self serving position. If I guessed wrong and a vaccine causes brain cancer in 50% of those who got 3 doses I am wrong and will live with it ( OR DIE WITH IT). But for those who yelled FREEDOM, without thought for their fellow citizens, there may be a special place for them in the future.

Death rate by state is far more complicated than is DeSantis a genius and Cuomo a nut. Living conditions, group home deaths, living outdoors vs indoors, vaccine rates, outdoor venues vs indoor, sub ways vs cars, apartments vs homes, international visitors, medical readiness etc etc. Natural immunity to Delta was certainly more costly in deaths than omicron. Immunity is likely impossible as it is with the flu or cold virus. Just hope the next version is weaker yet than omicron. If Delta had remained or returns the deaths will be heavy. Immunity lasts only months, either way. Vaxxed or not. Saving life's for me is more important jn the short term than certain limitations. My short term is years, yours might be days. Would you isolate for 14 days to safe your life and others, or 30 days or 6 months. Hmmmm. In the end screw the politics and corruption poop. And where in Canada did this burning occur. Is Rhino back creating again. Me thinks you are full of it.

Hard for me to see that this was not about the virus. It was about what? China labs, Fauci planned this to be rich, Pfizer wanted global control, trump needed a drum to beat, dems needed election issue, Putin needed this, the taliban wanted to get US out so they created a virus...hmmmmm. yeh, politics are involved, it us 2019, 20, 21, 22...wtf else could you expect. Believe Fauci or bleach in your blood stream. The judgement here is between what your belief is, deaths or freedoms. Where s the cross over, 950,000 deaths is not enough, so 950,001 or if no effort was made for vaccines, masks, shutdowns etc, 1,500,000 or 3,000,000 or many more? Risk? What is your investment strategy. I know you will not answer this question because a decision is required not dogma. If the virus would have threatened 100,000 deaths in US, or1,000 in Canada, I would agree with you, but I choose to listen and accept that millions could die, and see the necessity for many measures.

These has been great protests, slightly confusing over the issue, but the longer it lasts the more it becomes apparent that Trudeau has been terrible communicator, especially to those on the fringe of support. A real trail out of these rules needs to be clear. The best is the peaceful nature, with a few exceptions. Thank goodness that horrid groups like BLM have stayed home. With no violence and looting the protesters have made considerable political points with the population and politicians. Congrats to them. Congrats to the relationship between civil citizens and the police. While I don't support some of their positions I have huge respect in how the point has been made.

Lot of needs to come. Dline, CB, WR?, Oline, RB, could all use some major help. The draft focus may depend on free agents. If we can get a defensive end or a major online immediate help then focus becomes clear. A rookie CB, or RB can play right away, a rookie WR can really help support our great starters.

Now, I dislike Trudeau, but if this is about breakdown in leadership, then by extension Jan 6 was a breakdown in leadership by trump. OR ?

I thought Rosemary's Woods retired! Did Nicon actually leave the WH or was that helicopter and illusion? Telephone records missing on Jan6....oh no!

Thank goodness they did quit! Can you imagine if they stayed.

Always amazed by the logic of free needles, a warm place to shoot up and easy laws so when I get caught stealing to pay for my drugs. When equality means we are different and therefore give me something to show how under privileged I am! Don't treat me as inferior but give me opportunity to drag myself down easier? If democracies could reduce the number of social worker degrees we might solve a problem not create a new industry every year to cater to under privileged. Ok, there is my rant for today.

Support is not overwhelming, just silent majority is watching. Not many of the majority will ho into the cold when we are already leaving restrictions behind. In Ontario, 89% if people are fully vaxed. Strange for truckers to start a protest against needing fully vaxxec to come back to Canada without quarantine when they need to be fully vaxxed to enter US? So the protest reasons have changed. Hope it remains peaceful. Majority if Canadians do not love Trudeau, but right-wing conservatives are Wacko, like trumpers and cannot gain support of middle.
