    Waving Trump flags… 🤦‍♂️

    That’s the conservative platform right there. Blame Trudeau for everything and idolize a fascist Republican cult leader.

    Trudeau was set to meet with about 10 vendors, but he couldn’t make his way to the other side of the public square after being swarmed by the dozens of protesters. Some of them were holding Trump flags, while others were screaming expletives about the government and the media.

    America is paying us back for Justin Beiber by brainwashing our idiots.

      I struggle to find words to express the stupidity of this. Even dumber than the same happening in the USA and that is frightfully stupid.

        Yeah even in native circles this stupidity is rampant.

        Facebook and most popular social media is like brain cancer at this point. Most people look at this crap every day and believe like mindless zombies everything they see.

        Social media has tapped into the most basic animal cores of the human brain and it’s leading everyone towards a cliff. Progress is measured by how fast we can run towards that abyss.

      They are very loud, though. Do they still try to arrest the police or whatever they do? I’m pretty sure I watched a video of something like that.

    What is wrong with people? Who taught them to believe that this behaviour is acceptable?

    There are lots of politicians I don’t like. I see many out at events in Ottawa. And I… go about my day and leave them alone.

      Nah. Still just vote for whatever party can put forth a plan that will HELP CANADIANS. The conservatives have never fielded a plan like that, so it’ll feel the same but for a better reason – and it allows for a case where the oranges or greens can actually get the vote and execute on a plan.

      (and, may I say, the 1995-era Green plan of managed resource harvesting was an especially excellent pro-fishing, pro-forestry, pro-mining, pro-sawmill, pro-paper-mill, and pro-hydro plan that was ruined only by THEIR fringe members being on TV so much. Had they a hope of pulling it off, industry out here could have been different than the one we got from pro-ceo bc-reds or pro-rich-bitches blues)

        I do both :) It’s also good to see the bc reds have finally renamed themselves.

          Good resource management means long-term protection and stability, often at the expense of short-term profits. Boom-bust “jobs” vs stable careers and trades you can pass on to the next generation.

          A lot of fishing conservation programs are not just about making fishing accessible for Canadians, its also about keeping fish population/levels healthy by monitoring water conditions, kick starting remedial work, and raising and stocking fish for natural populations.
