flakeloaf posted:The immediate consequence of that would be those troops becoming unavailable to go to Kyiv, which I think we've all accepted is the whole point. I will note that the head of the PPS is legally required to be a member of the RCMP, and yeah, there's not a whole lot of them. I'm not sure that a civilian administrator really accomplishes anything when they're still trying to issue orders to officers that are mutineers. They could purge the ranks but that also wouldn't help end the situation given that they would cease to be an active entity when they're down to 0 officers.

If the chief isn't in charge of the men, get eyes on the head of their not-a-union-union. The province had their chance to patch this bug when Craig Bromell got too big for his britches, but they didn't.

I’m not sure that’s going to go the way we hope. It’s just the moment we get to find out if we live in a democracy anymore or not.

Imagine if the chud occupation had happened just before the election. I wonder if that would have prompted much swifter and decisive action. It also wouldn't have made the election a complete waste of time.

Looks like the crisis in Windsor is over. quote:Windsor — The Ambassador Bridge is set to reopen, bringing Canada's "national economic crisis" to an end, Windsor Mayor Drew Dilkens said Sunday. "Border crossings will reopen when it is safe to do so and I defer to police and border agencies to make that determination," Dilkens tweeted about 11 a.m. Sunday.

Fidelitious posted:I will note that the head of the PPS is legally required to be a member of the RCMP, and yeah, there's not a whole lot of them. In the immediate term it may not seem like it's going to accomplish much, but assuming the police aren't actually enacting a coup, at some point it will matter. As pointless as it seems, the wheels need to start moving on censure and discipline within the system. Appointing civilian administration do oversee that is a start, even if it doesn't resolve the problem of OPS not acting on orders today. I mean they can (and likely will) continue to do absolutely nothing, but that hasn't worked so far, and it's certainly not going to address the problem after this crisis ends*. flakeloaf posted:If the chief isn't in charge of the men, get eyes on the head of their not-a-union-union. The province had their chance to patch this bug when Craig Bromell got too big for his britches, but they didn't. If the Police Association is in any way directing them contrary to orders that would also be "a big deal". Assuming there were any kind of written or recorded communication to this effect, they'd be hosed. *If we've reached the point where the police are in open revolt against the government and the situation cannot be resolved lawfully, then you should be hoarding fuel and canned goods instead of reading bullshit on an internet forum because we're in the loving Twilight Zone. If we're not yet there, then the process matters. infernal machines fucked around with this message at 19:19 on Feb 13, 2022 |

Pat King is calling for the truckers to invade Bank & Riverside. Counter-protestors also got the memo and have already arrived to block them there.

He was acclaimed as the leader of the association twice, because nobody ran against him.

Chantal Hebert is reporting that "centrist Conservatives" are starting to rally around Jean Charest as their leadership candidate to foil Poilievre. (You can defeat the paywall by stopping page loading before it's done, although there isn't much to the article besides the headline).infernal machines posted:If the Police Association is in any way directing them contrary to orders that would also be "a big deal". Assuming there were any kind of written or recorded communication to this effect, they'd be hosed. I'm not foolish enough to predict how this will end, but I can definitely see police claim that they were under orders to avoid conflict and couldn't have done anything without reinforcements and would you please double the budget for next time? Also, strangely enough we don't have detailed records of this operation and can't share them for security reasons.

The Mayor of Ottawa just negotiated with the convoy to relocate them to the hills, away from residential areas. Feckless coward. Trudeau's almost done preparing the reinvoke the emergency acts, at least.
