In non-truck news, the hospital here is loving hosed Last week, somebody died in the emergency room waiting for care while there was a 14 hour wait. I've waited 4 hours there with chest pains while there was a 1 hour wait listed. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/red-deer-emergency-room-wait-times-increase-1.6326871 Now they're diverting all but "life and limb" emergency surgeries to Edmonton or Calgary. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/red-deer-hospital-diverting-patients-1.6335988 I had to go in today for a blood test and they've moved lab collections to a small ~8x12 office. The UCP gave all community lab services to DynaLife. I've waited outside of their building here for an hour with an appointment and over a week for results. https://edmonton.ctvnews.ca/researcher-advocacy-groups-concerned-about-dynalife-takeover-of-alberta-community-lab-testing-1.5761559 Here's some nice juxtaposition https://twitter.com/jkenney/status/1488889721593864192 https://twitter.com/UnitedNurses/status/1488913990348468225

The thing is that Alberta has basically no restrictions for the vaccinated as it is. There's nothing you can't do here. So this is all about letting the loving anti-vaxx pieces of poo poo back into society to spread disease, and it should not happen. They should be even more restricted than they are.

And I'm pretty sure the small town rural areas are just open and not bothering with checks anyway, so if you're out in true Tory Territory there's not even that do deal with. The protesters are people upset at the idea of someone telling them what to do.

Feldegast42 posted:if this guy is aiding and abetting nazis and the current situation it doesn't matter how many puppies he pets off hours, hes a nazi He isn't. Cocaine Bear posted:Bolded the answer for ya. So I seem to be in the minority here, but I don't find "all cops are Nazis because I say so" to be logically coherent or useful. Fidelitious posted:Also, why are people in this thread going to bat for Sloly? Yes, he is probably better than the majority of police chiefs, but he is currently overseeing a complete tolerance of anything these chuds feel like doing. The OPS straight-up said that they were too scared of what they might do to enforce any kind of order on the protest. But apparently this is only a factor when it's right-wing white people that are the problem. Mostly because people are screaming that he's a Nazi, which is problematic in that it trivializes actual Nazis, and kinda gross to be saying about a black man. But to actually talk about the situation in Ottawa, what are they supposed to do that isn't going to end in a bloodbath? De-escalation and restraint from using violence is actually what we want from the police, and I'm willing to at least give them credit for the fact that there have been no deaths or injuries so far. And before everyone jumps in with "but the cops and the occupiers aren't human so their deaths don't matter", bear in mind that a full-blown street battle in downtown Ottawa would have collateral damage. Also there's this: https://ottawacitizen.com/news/local-news/truck-convoy-protesters-vow-to-stay-as-long-as-it-takes-claim-tens-of-thousands-remain quote:Describing the situation in Centretown as lawless, Somerset Coun. Catherine McKenney called on the RCMP to take operational control of convoy protesters near Parliament Hill on Wednesday so Ottawa police can “restore peace” in residential neighbourhoods. By all reports there are far more occupiers than Ottawa Police officers, and the immediate solution is to bring in the provincial RCMP. I'm not sure why that hasn't happened yet?

I'm not sure why that hasn't happened yet? Ontario has its own provincial police. They're here in Ottawa right now, in ones and twos from the looks of things. They could suppress this violently, but I'm not sure the mayor's office would allow it, and the premier's... well, Ford.

Why are there still cop defenders logging on. Cops have no problem brutalizing any other group in Canada when we have legitimate grievances but ohhhh noooo they just can't figure out how to handle some loving Nazis when they try to occupy they loving capitol? "A bloo bloo it might start a riot!" When the gently caress else have they ever cared about that? Nobody cares if someone is a Nazi or just a collaborator because the result is the same in the end. gently caress.

PT6A posted:gently caress off. We're still in the middle of a pandemic, more people are hospitalized for COVID in Alberta than ever before, my job is taking a beating because students and staff are too ill to come in regardless of isolation requirements, the immunocompromised are being thrown under the bus by the rest of society, people can't get necessary surgeries. You pro-COVID pieces of poo poo sicken me. Sorry, I should have made the sarcasm more obvious I guess. You definitely don't to learn to live with people coughing on you. I'm one of those 'getting thrown under the bus' folks, and just found out yesterday that I can't even take Paxlovid if I do get COVID.

They literally just sign papers for insurance companies when your poo poo gets stolen. It's almost as if the sole purpose of the police is to enforce the current social hierarchy and crush any dissent from organized groups of marginalized people.

Any premier abandoning their province during a wave to run for federal leadership is just going to get slaughtered from the left for abandoning and slaughtered from the right for putting in any restrictions at all. It's a non-starter.

"A bloo bloo it might start a riot!" When the gently caress else have they ever cared about that? Nazis are more likely to fight back, they got trucks to run over cops or smash barricades, and they could always have guns. Its a rare occasion where the usage of violence presents an unacceptable amount of risk of police injury. It's also basically just a big signal to say "if you want to protest, just make sure the cops feel sufficiently threatened"

Nah, it's that the mayor and police agree with the protestors about restrictions, the police are mostly violent reactionaries and neither see the people living in the centre of the city as their constituents.

They could, I don't know, do their loving jobs and arrest the people committing crimes. And standing around doing nothing besides posing for photos with Nazis isn't de-escalation. De-escalation would be getting the protestors to gently caress off and stop harassing/assaulting passersby, blaring their horns, pissing on the street while waving around swastikas and confederate flags, etc. And before someone thinks of replying 'but what about other protestors', there are notable differences between the flu trux klan/Coutts blockaders and G20/indigenous protests.
