The next Canadian federal election may not happen until October 2025, unless there is a vote of no confidence in Trudeau’s minority government or Trudeau calls a snap election, like he did last year. Remember, last year the entitled little bitch thought he could parlay his (cough, cough) great handling of the pandemic into a majority government for the Liberals. But the voters weren’t impressed: he still had a minority, coalition government. Justin’s recent jackassery won’t help him.

How does the recently enacted Emergency Act (or whatever they call it up there) impact elections?

My guess is not much. Trudeau was elected by the cites of Toronto, Montréal, and Vancouver and he can do no wrong in their eyes. His mistake in calling an early election was forgetting that while he was elected by those three cites, they are not all of Canada.

Crackdown on the protesters has begun. The organizers of the convoy were arrested and the feds have moved in on the truckers. We'll see what the next move will be, but if the truckers mean business then a general strike is in order.

the same people who always tell you "no one needs a gun like that" always seem to have that EXACT same gun when they show up to make you do stuff.

weird, huh?

That was the first time I'd ever seen that clip used as well, and kept thinking about it watching this one. :lol:

Didn't BlackFalkin make it, or at least post it to the board?

I think so. Greatest prediction in sports history made in August or Sep of 2010. Griz reign is over, EWU wins the Natty. :lol:

Peaceful protesters and their families to be targeted by the Canadian gubmint. There's a word for that.

I couldn’t care less about what Canada does. Just like I couldn’t care less about what Portland or SF do.

I'm just here for the spectacle of leftist's brains getting stuck in an infinite loop explaining why it's good for BLM to disrupt commerce and destroy things during a pandemic but not okay for the truckers to do.

Kind of like the dichotomy of the rightists who were saying back the blue and cheering on the jackbooted DHS thugs who were cracking skulls in Portland and then got all bent out of shape when Ashli Babbitt was shot and the feds turned their attention to hunting down January 6 protestors?

I get that the response to the AnTiFa riots was not proportionate to the response to January 6 but it doesn't change the reality that both sides are mirror images of each other with similar double standards.
Being wrong about a topic is called post partisanism - kalm

MAQA - putting the Q into qrazy qanon qult qonspiracy theories since 2015.

It will probably be difficult for MAQA yahoos to overcome the Qult programming but they should give being rational & reasonable a try.

Yeah those vastly outnumbered fed police were some real jack booted thugs for trying to defend themselves & that fed building(s) from attacks from large crowds who were smashing windows, shooting commericial grade fireworks and molotov cocktails, throwing bricks, rocks, frozen water bottles, etc at the police, shining lasers in officers eyes, all while wearing homemade protective gear, etc for several months.

Agreed. The left’s is just continually on display, while we see the right’s only occasionally.

That narrative on what DHS was doing in Portland is pure fiction.

There is one floating around about UND when NDSU won their first National championship after moving up. It is especially hilarious as Ralph Engelstad (the man that built/owned/donated their Hockey Area) was a noted Nazi memorabilia collector and was censured a couple of times by the Nevada gaming commission for holding themed costume parties on Hitlers birthday.

It is also why some NDSU fans refer to the UND board (Siouxsports) as the Hitler Youth Board (HYB for short).
