He probably wasn’t forklift certified.

Protesting justly is great and should be lauded.

It’s just simply not worth it. We see how it ended in this instance, and we’ve now seen multiple instances of people pulling guns. It’s just not worth it. It’s to the point where if I see two people aggressively driving and clearly antagonizing one another, I get as far away as I can for fear of gunfire erupting.

It’s unclear if the two had had a prior run-in on the road, or if the truck driver simply didn’t want the sedan getting ahead.

You can win it! I will sell you one 4-million-dollar raffle ticket, and you might be the winner! I’ll let you know next month. 

If the fabric is frozen, isn’t it now a hard top?

I can see the headline now

Just want to clarify that the Critical Infrastructure Defence Act isn’t best described as a “Canadian law”, because it’s a provincial (Alberta) law. The fun part is that the very conservative provincial government pretty clearly enacted it to be used against Indigenous and other “leftist” protestors that they didn’t…

I’m convinced we should just depopulate the midwest and intermountain west of both canada and the U.S., cede the land back to the indigenous populations, and anyone from that region who wants to move back has to accept native government. The rest can go live in texas.

Can’t someone just try and convince these idiots that the only reasonable next course of action is to try and storm the border? I mean they’re right there anyway.

I don’t know who the US equivalent would be, but basically you do not fuck with Terry Fox. Defacing the statue has turned a ton of formerly sympathetic people against this protest.

It is an important point. To an international audience it is hard to explain just how revered Terry Fox is. I think every Canadian has the image of him limping down the road and dying trying to reach his goal.

Minor quibble: Terry Fox wasn’t a cancer researcher. He was an advocate for cancer research, which is related but not quite the same. He had a kind of bone cancer - I knew the specific kind once - and had his leg amputated in an attempt to stop the spread. In order to raise money for cancer research, he decided to run…

And this is what you get in a society that fetishizes guns.

I used to be all about flipping people off if they tailgated me or cut me off, etc. Now I just let things roll because in the last 30-ish years since I got my license road rage has gone from getting the bird back at you to this kind of shit. Ain’t worth it. Let the other idiot think they win - at least you can walk…

I love how he is all badass until he lets off the first shot then cowers.

This is the society you get when you treat firearm ownership as an inalienable right, rather than a privilege with responsibilities.

He looked like a total badass. The control of his weapon points to adequate training. Glad he’s armed and spraying our highways for justice.

Dealt with one in Edmonton, he was always trying to pay bills with certificates covered with gold seals and red ribbons and a silver dollar stuck on it, but tried to trade services for furniture that he was selling and he wanted cash. We had the same landlord and his business got seized for non payment of rent

Ah, Freemen on the Land. These fuckers are annoying. Up here in Alberta, you run into them as soon as you leave a city centre. My friend is a County Patrol Officer. He’s a traffic cop for rural roads, investigates property crimes in the county, and settles/intervenes in property disputes and complaints between…
