1. I'm not following...

More noise to counter the protest noise?

Isn’t that one of the larger complaints of residents in the area; the noise?

[2naSalit]

2. Yeah...

No context or info there, just noise.

3. Canadians are different. If that situation was in the US, that big guy would've slugged...

the guy with the noise maker. No doubt about it.

And US cops and Nat'l Guard would've long since cleared those trucks out of the city.

4. Careful, you may get your chance to prove it if convoys take hold in US. . . . nt

5. Why do I have to be careful. Know your country. The monied interests of this...

nation, the citadel of capitalism, will not allow the flow of commerce to be stopped for a prolonged length of time. And though some republicans have been urging truckers to do it here for days now, it hasn't happened. And if it does, Nat'l Guard tanks, local LEOs and tow trucks will clear them away.

The US doesn't do Canada nice. It won't happen here for any prolonged period.

6. Or sensible pandemic fighting? That sure depressed commerce for a prolonged length of time

"Monied interests" had no stake in that?

8. Ridiculous. It's not even worthy of an apples and oranges response. You can move trucks...

physically. Try that with a once-in-a-century pandemic virus.

9. Canada did try sensible pandemic fighting, more successfully. Yes, USA and Canada are different

... but more the same than you might think.

We'll have to see if any convoys get rolling, because if they do, there can be standoffs and "events". The aggressiveness of the "security forces" can be matched by the extremism of the ones who oppose the "gubmnt".

How about the Malheur occupation in 2016? How long did it take to get them out and arrested?
Oh, wait, it was longer.

Wait, how many trucks involved? A few pickup trucks? Well, sure, they don't pose the opposition that 400 big rigs pose. Coulda, woulda, shoulda swept them all up sooner?

Any children there? Hmm, none that I remember.

Sure, you will tell me that "the monied interests" have no stake in Wildlife refuges, but that's not the point. The point is, what are disaffected extremists capable of in the United States?

You think a US convoy wouldn't have children with them? Wouldn't have partisans in the countryside with rifles and scopes converging on a blocked interstate?

Do you think some of the monied interests like chaos? Does Elon Musk meet your criteria for "monied interest"? Look up what he has said about Trudeau. Think his bread is buttered in Texas or China?

So you have monied interests who want chaos and other monied interests who can't clamp down adequately on chaos examples like Bundy's and Malheur.

Your "monied interests" were funding the occupiers in Ottawa.

Your Senators would ensure law and order right? Including the ones publicly calling for convoys and blockages in the US. Unh hunh.

What is Gov. Abbott's stance about convoys and convidiots?



Did your "monied interests" like the results of Jan 6 or loathe it?

10. Dude, it won't work here. It would've already happened if it could. We're not Canada.

Get back to me when it does, when there's even a peep out of the truckers here.
