What is alarming is the number of Canadians who to this day support the emergency Act and are righteously angry that Tucker Carlson was allowed to spread his "hate" in Canada. They are all over the internet.

The only question is when the conservatives get back into power, will they have the courage to make the fundamental changes needed to save Canada. From the Supreme Court to the Constitution to the education system. Canada should be one of the richest countries per capita in the world. And it's about to have a depression that will make the 1920s look like a walk in the park.

I watched Tucker's recent speech in Calgary. It seemed like most people in the audience were afraid to react to what he was saying. The brainwashing and fear still run deep up there, even in the most free parts of the country!

That was my first reaction as well. Canadians are afraid to speak.

Can you blame them/us? After the Truckers in Canada and J6 in the USA, the proles are finally learning their lesson. Step up against the powers that be, especially if you do so in an effective manner, and you will be destroyed by the State.

Unreasonable and disproportionate punishment is the stock and trade of totalitarians. It has been that way since the beginning of time. 'Modern' governments with Bills of Rights and Charters of Rights and Freedoms are only mildly deterred; indeed when their power is challenged, their actions seem justified to many because they are presumed to be acting righteously, until it becomes terribly clear that something has gone wrong. By then the point is made -- the nail that stands out will get hammered. Charters and Constitutions notwithstanding.

I agree with you, this is nothing new. There is a price to be paid for challenging an existing order.

However, we aren't asking people to take excessive risks. If the average person just started asking questions and pushing back, it would help immeasurably. A lot of modern "soft power" relies on authority and consent, which is why they are so eager to crack down on satire and mockery of the authorities.

I do not believe those truckers thought they were taking excessive risks, but then Trudope invoked the Emergencies Act (illegally, according to a recent court decision) and clamped down on them.

And people are asking questions, and the blowback to Trudope is that he is unlikely to win another term as PM, with Pierre Poilievre and his Tories projected to win 222 seats in Parliament if the vote were taken today, leaving the Grits and their NDP sycophants with less than 100.

But there is a similarity. Both countries have been subjected to historically unprecedented mass immigration. They have been flooded with disparate peoples who have nothing in common with each other. This destroys social trust and cohesion.

I recall in the 90s entire neighborhoods in my city were turned into multicultural messes in which residents didn't talk to one another. The guy next door from mainland China didn't like the Chinese guy from Hong Kong, and both looked at the Vietnamese family as if they were barbarians.

People have few strong social ties, and they are awash in a sea of third world imports who have little tradition of freedom. Many are perfectly happy with authoritarian governments telling them what to do.

Look at the major players in the Canadian resistance to COVID policies. The guys who sued about border and travel restrictions. The pastor in Alberta who was constantly getting arrested. Not a whole lot of diversity there. The Asians pretty much went along with it.

Emotional maturity only comes automatically to a small percent the population. The rest need to learn it through the ongoing rigors of life. By making life easy and responsibility-free, the government maintains an infantile population. The problem is that most of these elites are themselves emotionally immature and underdeveloped, which makes for a bad combination.

From your lips to God’s ears, however, most in the US are blissfully unaware that any of this is going on. On a recent visit from my brother who lives in Denver, we got in the conversation about getting Democrats out of power, he told me that DeSantis was too “right wing.” He then told me that he works for a good company in Canada (Toronto), and so they were ultimately the “good guys” or the most “just.”

He has no idea what is happening in Canada, or who Trudeau actually is, but thinks he is “informed,” and on the side of “social justice.” How do you inform someone about the reality on the ground, when his social status is based on mouthing Luxury beliefs and “correct think?”

Federal elections in Canada are a bit simpler than in the USA -- the only thing you actually vote for is your local MP. Last time I voted in Canada, 2019, they gave you a slip of paper and you marked an 'X' in the box next to the name of the candidate you chose to vote for. Fold it, and drop in ballot box. (A far cry from let's say California, where the ballot pamphlet can be over 500 pages, and you vote for every federal, state and local office including dogcatcher; plus there are always numerous referenda on the ballot.)

The votes would then be counted under the watchful eyes of representatives of Canada's three main parties: the Liberals, the Conservatives, and the New Democrats (NDP). And if you were in Quebec, also the Bloc Quebecois. So far so good.

But last I heard, as the votes were tabulated 'up the line,' they were using automated equipment IIRC from Dominion Voting Systems. Hell, when the Tories had their convention, they were using automated vote counting and I recall there being some sort of kerfuffle about that. Why they had to automate a count of a few thousand delegates, I cannot imagine.

The bottom line though, is that if the prize is important enough, someone will find a way to corrupt the system.

A real, real, good article.

I couldn't believe how many people were perfectly ok, happy even, with watching the Trucker Protest, being enthusiastically crushed by the Liberals....their rationale was always 'Well, how would YOU like it if a truck was parked outside your house and wouldn't stop honking??"

That's it. That's the sum total of a lefties "analysis". No context, no acknowledgement of a differing viewpoint, no sense of proportion. Nothing.

And, while Justin is a reliable and loyal WEFer...I can't help but think he F'ed up a bit by going too crazy , going way , way, overboard, by freezing bank accounts, seizing assets, terrorizing anyone who supported the truckers in any way.....he could have easily crushed the protest without doing all that stuff.....Justin tipped his hand way too early, and now, at least, we know what these loons won't hesitate to do when they want to.

Disproportionate action is a hallmark of totalitarians. They cannot help themselves.

Most of the time it works, keeps the proles fearful and docile. But there eventually come times when it does not, and the proles rise up and say things like this:

"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

Seems more like the Hallmark of the insecure. When the truckers hit Ottawa, Trudeau ran away and was nowhere to be found. His secret fear is probably that everyone thinks he's a joke and is laughing at him behind his back.

When Trudeau is done, and the journalists are off the public teat, perhaps the real story of why Justin left his position at West Pt. Grey Academy will become public. He is a truly bad man; like Commodus in ‘Gladiator’; like his father before him. There’s a reason why he and one of his sons were given the names of Roman emperors (his should’ve been Caligula). I know people who’ve known him personally (in one case, intimately): he is truly a rotten soul.

No doubt. He’s truly a (morally) sick man: a malevolent narcissist.

Thank-you Elizabeth for setting your brilliant and revealing sights on Canada once again.

WE Canadians have been asleep and taken freedom for granted far too long (a fragile concept) in our misguided, naive efforts to play nice. However, as more 'comfortable wolves' (Tom Luongo's characterization) become uncomfortable, more uncomfortable, greatly uncomfortable....we will see more awakenings, more pushback, more standing up. I believe we have reached and exceeded the 'tipping point' that needed to occur. The gloves are off and where once I (a Canadian) thought 'where the hell is Canada' now realize as the the second largest landmass in the world with 39 million people ONLY, in other words b/c we are spread out over such distances it goes without saying it is more difficult to garner en masse the masses. The Freedom Trucker Convoy was the tip of the iceberg of Canadians waking up and THAT cannot be underestimated, as it was the shot heard around the world. In as much as it oftentimes seems we are bit 'slow to the draw', it is happening in every way on every front (and there are many) here in this country. I too have a healthy scepticism regarding politicians. However, that said, I am not concerned with the Conservatives at all RESCINDING the disgusting laws and policies the ILLIBERALS have put in place. Why? Because Pierre Poilievre has travelled from coast to coast, East and West, North and South, filling large venues and town hall meetings speaking with the middle and working class people in this country by the THOUSANDS. Regarding Tucker Carlson.....having heard his speech, I believe most who were in the audience, and btw approx. 10,000 people showed up in Edmonton and 4500 in Calgary, were taking in all he addressed and it may have occurred to them that it took an American coming to Canada to kick the doors off soooo much that is occurring here....'shock and awe'. We will see the results of that for some time to come. Like Tucker did, it is time to name names, call the corrupt forces that be out for their crimes....and that is finally happening. WHEW!! Rebel News is a great alt. media here and incredibly outspoken. It IS quite possible WE may have an early election! Trudeau is done.....there will be no place for him and his cronies to hide. Watch out for the 'uncomfortable wolves'.....their time has come.

The authors of the Federalist Papers used pseudonym’s when publishing their works, designed help the early American middle and working classes to understand the need for and the workings of a somewhat complicated document “The Constitution” which outlined the mechanics of a Constitutional Republic.(We are not a democracy per se here in the USA) However, if one is not ready to stand in front of their given name generally their words ought be taken with less vigor. Canada changed forever in 1967, as a young 11 year old boy living in a U.S. border town close to Montreal, the relationship between the neighbors was glorious. We learned to speak French naturally, we competed in athletes and the Canadians came to us and we went there. However, as the amazing Worlds Fair held in Montreal demonstrated the strength and beauty of all of Canada’s robust people and nearly unlimited resources; the elements in control of the levers of power today were afoot and making mischief which led to where both Canada and the USA stand today. One can mark the date practically in 1968 when the current Prime Justin Trudeau’s father Pierre, began the slouching slide toward Gomorrah. Two interesting visuals, the incredible Canadian Pavilion at the Expo, walking through it was just a wonder to a little boy, especially at the end when one could experience the massive rain forests of British Columbia. The power of the understated array of the exhibit contrasted brilliantly with the Hemisphere of the American pavilion displaying all of our brashness and at the time sense of unlimited power. What power these two neighbors had to share and steward! As all the potential of both countries was on display for all the world to see, America was devolving into the morass of Viet Nam, and Canada would begin the real struggle with Quebec. An outsider looking in, the elements of Pierre Trusdeau, Rene’ Levesque and Pierre Bourgault efforts around sovereignty for Quebec, pushed the Anglophone minority out, and they silently and sullenly moved west, and in doing so took, finance and industry et al to a large degree with them. The capstone was the change of the name a main thoroughfare in Montreal from Dorchester Street to Rene’ Levesque Boulevard. One wonders to this day, why the Queen Elizabeth Hotel is allowed to stand. Americans shed their shackles to the Crown circa 1775, but we remain with neighbors to the north bound by common good, and the combination of the two nations championing their differences whilst harnessing their natural and human capabilities is mind boggling to imagine. Both nations need to be free of the yoke of the parasitic elites who like giant blood sucking squid are trying to kill us all. Well, one can only hope the middle, lower middle and working classes are waking up, and they want their nations back. Hope springs eternal and pathological optimism seems a good mindset.

As different as Alberta is compared to the rest of the provinces, with a couple possible exceptions, I think it would make sense to have a provincial force. Many cities have their own police force.
