I am so sorry that y'all have to deal with the abso-loving-loute worst of us. Can't say we aren't like that altogether, either. gently caress it, that's our problem. Sorry we let it be y'all's. And let it we did.

I have definitely met Canadians that regularly misapply US right-wing talking points to Canada. Yes, they all watch Fox News. yes, they're distant relatives

They have to use pirate satellites to watch Fox News. If they’re caught the minimum punishment is a month in our communist gulag.

Which is a merciful sentence for putting Fox News on a screen anywhere. If I had my way they'd be sent off on an ice flow with a bottle of maple syrup being held just out of reach until they sink or go mad.

I don't get what any non-American (hell not white American) gets out of watching Fox News tbh; it's openly a mouthpiece for specifically rightwing American bullshit thst isn't even relevant to any international audience. It's like watching North Korean news broadcasts, what the gently caress is the point if you don't live there and already buy in to the insane poo poo?

Apparently there is a process for civilians to get a license to carry, either concealed or open, but one generally needs to convince the authorities of a legitimate need. Rumor has it that JT's mom used to have one. More commonly it's an open carry license, and it's work related. ie armored car drivers, etc.

Drunk Kenney shows up again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWZuthAiMuk&t=690s Thousands of rounds, and willingness to use force against the Police. so 11 of them were ready to shoot cops, 2 others tried to ram police vehicles. Just a couple of bad apples. boys will be boys,

Always interesting that the first expense these people cut is the cost of feeding their kids. Any time they have to pay for anything, it's the "food being taken from my kids mouths".

CBC livestream for Trudeau, currently talking to Alberta RCMP regarding the incident and the threat apparently made to murder RCMP. https://youtu.be/M1iXToPJFcs Edit: holy god drat someone tried to ram the RCMP with a semi-trailer?

Maybe companies that lost money due to border closures will look at the companies/plates of trucks involved in the blockades and sue them for damages.

Crypto and crowdfunding now covered under proceeds of crime and terrorist funding laws. That should be a hoot. e: hopefully every company listed on convoytraitors has their accounts frozen and closed. Powershift fucked around with this message at 22:53 on Feb 14, 2022 |

Also letting banks immediately freeze accounts without a court order if they're suspecting the use of the funds for illegal blockades.

The financial, insurance, and regulatory specifics are a lot more targeted than I expected they were going to go with, but make sense when compared against all of the information previously unveiled regarding the funding sources and way in which things were being financed.

mom and dad fight a lot posted:On the other hand, I totally and completely understand Americans wanting to get their news from non-American broadcasters. I'm weird because I want to watch Canadian news, but the Canadians I know are mostly of the 'not represented in US politics because they're so far left' type, and so if you ask them for opinions about Canadian media it's usually a variation of, "the CBC is kinda alright I guess, everything else is conservative." Which is annoying because when I watch The National they elevate a lot of stories that would be regional to national importance in, I imagine, an attempt to craft a very Canadian-focused newscast. A story about US politics, for example, has to be very important to rank higher than the 'in other news' column. I just want something that would resemble a US newscast if we stopped ignoring Canada, it's government, etc. From what little I've seen, CTV seems to come closest to that? It's irritating that we share this huge land border with a population the size of California and yet our press treats it like it might as well be somewhere around Germany for all we care. It's because of that ignorance that you can find Americans who wonder why they put the British Queen on Canadian money, or fell for Rick Mercer's "National Igloo" bit.

At the beginning, Trudeau dropped an announcement of a new $500 million loan to Ukraine, along with $7.8 million worth of lethal equipment, and thanked Freeland. Everyone please join him in thanking our diligent deputy prime minister.

Rumor has it that JT's mom used to have one. I met a guy at a pilot school with one in BC. He's also a cargo/bush pilot, that flies to really remote lakes in the Territories and northern BC. He was approved to carry a large caliber revolver, I believe it was a Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan chambered in 454 Casull, your typical snub nose bear gun. I think that basically he was restricted to only carry during work duties like a security guard. So I guess its like a "guard" card in some US states vs a full blown CCW.

Ah yes, questions alternating between "some premiers don't want this power, can you commit to not using it" and "if you're using it, why have you waited until now to use this power".

I'm amused how in the face of repeated questions that were essentially, "Throw the Ottawa police under the bus please," with the PM specifically not doing so, the closest Trudeau was going to tiptoe on the issue was that noting that in the future there's probably going to be an inquiry.
