After his initial Tuesday shipment of MyPillow products was denied entry into Canada, Mike Lindell now has a backup plan to get free pillows to Canadian truckers: drop them from the sky via a helicopter. The pillow maven told The Daily Beast late Wednesday night that he intends to drop his pillows into Canada from a helicopter “with little parachutes” attached. “We need to get the MyPillows to the people!” he continued. The 2020 election dead-ender further made it a point to ensure The Daily Beast noted in this report that the pillows will have “little parachutes,” adding, “make sure you put that part in, or it could be dangerous.” Asked where exactly he intended to drop the pillows, he said, “I can not give the location out, and it is no joke! I just confirmed with them [the helicopter company], and yes, this is the plan. We have the helicopter confirmed, but we are moving the time up to 11 am.” The Daily Beast could not reach the Canada Border Services Agency for comment late Wednesday night.

4. Truckers need his pillows because?...nt

[Bev54]

28. It is going to be the greatest pillow fight in the history of Canada!

[Thomas Hurt]

5. LOL, can't drive a truck, so he is going to hire somone to violate Canada's sovereign airspace.(smh)

I suppose he could hire a Canadian helicopter service. Still have to wonder if dropping things indiscriminately in Ottawa might get you a littering fine.

[Ocelot II]

11. In the US it's illegal to drop stuff from aircraft.

Canada likely has the same rule.

[Pachamama]

20. +100000

I am certain there is

[Lucid Dreamer]

36. Canadian Aviation Regulations - Part VI -- General Operating and Flight Rules

Canadian Aviation Regulations

Part VI — General Operating and Flight Rules
Dropping of Objects
602.23 No person shall create a hazard to persons or property on the surface by dropping an object from an aircraft in flight.

[FSogol]

6. Can he be charged with littering for each pillow?

[Ocelot II]

7. The helicopter will be escorted out of Canadian airspace by its Air Force.

Lindell might have better luck launching pillows over the border using a trebuchet.

[Sneederbunk]

9. Once again reminding Canadians they share a border with an insane asylum.

[Ocelot II]

13. Canada might want to consider building its own wall

to keep out lunatics from the US. I know where they can get one…

[Srkdqltr]

10. Seriously??? The man is delusional.

[Omnipresent]

12. Mike needs to get some rest.

Do they make “my pillow” for padded cells?

[turbinetree]

14. Did he take a physics class....

[Ilsa]

25. That diagram would make a nice Jeopardy! problem:

"These two forces affect the positioning of the dropped package:"

"What are gravity and inertia, Mayam."

[turbinetree]

27. And then ask what is between your ears gravity or inertia......

[CrispyQ]

15. You will never be Arthur Carlson, you lying POS. -nt

[Takket]

16. How is this jackass not bankrupt yet?

[Volaris]

39. Dominion is working on it.

[spanone]

17. I believe that is known as Littering on a massive scale.

[Blue Owl]

18. You say it's no joke, Mike???

I beg to differ...

[MLAA]

19. Lock him up for littering!

[GoCubsGo]

21. He needs to be committed.

This man is mentally ill and belongs in a psychiatric hospital. Enough already. Shame on those who are letting him continue this kind of shit, and doing nothing about it.

[BlueIdaho]

22. Well that should create an international incident.

Please tell me he will be on board when he violates Canada’s airspace.

[ificandream]

24. MAKE HIM STOP!!!!!

[MineralMan]

26. "I swear to God I thought pillows could fly..."

[GoneOffShore]

29. The comments on Being Liberal on FB echo the ones here.

And WKRP flying turkeys came up a lot. Really a lot. Like everybody had the same thought. Of course now if you're on FB, you are 'officially OLD' and probably still have an 8-Track.

[niyad]

31. Where does one acquire little parachutes? How much is he paying someone

to attach and load the parachutes? Will they all fit in one helicopter?

[jmowreader]

32. Two comments need to be made

1. From his plan it’s obvious he’s never been in the 101st Airborne. You attach parachutes to loads that will be damaged if they land at high speed. Not even Lindell’s pillows are hard enough to require parachutes.

2. Bombarding Canada with the pillows Mike Lindell makes could be considered an act of war.

[Liberal In Texas]

33. I'm going to be surprised if he finds a helicopter company and pilot that will do this.

Without permission from the civil aviation authority, they could lose licenses.

[TlalocW]

34. Haven't the truckers more or been cleared out?

Are they just going to fly around until they see semi-trucks parked at large gas stations or driving around and drop a few then move on?

35. I swear when I read that headline, I thought of this

[marie999]

37. Canada should charge him now with planning a terrorist attack.

Have him extradited.

38. What could go wrong
