I only caught pieces; did he say they're going to immediately use those large fines and seizing licenses, or is it a "wait and see if we need to do it?"

With all that trade bunged-up at the bridge, there's going to be blood soon if they don't actually act. The pressure will just keep building and more supporters are going to coalesce around it.

Uyghurs situation in Xinjiang? Just a police action, do not fret. Not ongoing genocide like in EVIL Canada.

I am definitely not a tankie.
the whole ‘we don’t actually control our cops’ thing is honestly ominous. like, doesn’t that raise the question of ‘what if they don’t listen then…?’

Yeah, I caught that and that subtext makes the whole state of emerg. seem like a giant nothingburger when the police are demonstrably sympathetic to their "cause".

I think it's mostly an attempt to distance themselves from the cops since there are more vids of them chilling with the chuds every day. Doug needs someone to stuff under the bus in the short term. Then after this he can say they were trying really hard to end the occupation but don't control the police wink wink.

edit: also now he can tell the auto manufacturers he wasn't doing nothing when they come for his blood

doug was just asked if he's going to actually have people arrested and his response is "well I can't actually tell the police what to do so :shrug:"

i mean, he literally cannot, and that's probably a good thing in general.

I'm been very interested in this day. I knew it was coming. We are opening up fully.
And we will never, ever close again.
So.
How do we live from now on? Like it or not we are being forced to "live with it". I assume numbers will stop being announced so we will be in the dark to how "safe" it is.
Now it's easy to say "we'll keep wearing your respirator" forever. A lot harder to do it forever.
So, what is everyone thinking? How is life going to go on for you from whenever your province gets rid of everything if they haven't yet?

gently caress if I know. I'm pretty much resigned to catching COVID at this point. I'm not going to do unsafe things but I don't want to overly restrict my kids lives, so they'll most likely be the vector.

We know you can get reinfected with it, so getting it once means little.
We know that no one is going to be checking numbers anymore, so even if you, a C-SPAM poster, check the deaths and loudly go "HMMM why is there a rise of 20% in deaths this year HMMM" no one is going to admit poo poo.
And you will get funny looks post-*INSERT END OF MANDATE*

I don't really see how you CAN be safe from here on in without incredible destruction to your life. You would literally become a monk, forsaking all societal obligations and connection for the rest of your life while wearing a respirator 24/7 outside of your door and only venturing out for essentials.
Forever.
I doubt, no actually I do not believe, anyone that says that is what they are doing going forward. Especially anyone with a partner or children. Or friends. Or family. Or work.

Right now, I've expected this as the conservatives dropped the hints months ago. I honestly just don't know how to move forward. I guess the smart thing would be to hold off ripping off masks and crowd surfing immediately and give it a month or so, but again the governments won't be able to close shop on surveillance and monitoring fast enough. There will be no more numbers to follow or help guide decisions.

Hmmm.
