Ottawa police gearing up and serving a warning...

 

Just released.To start charging those that block the streets and those that help

 

https://www.ottawapolice.ca/Modules/News/index.aspx?feedid=027e4532-b9a7-41cc-a991-fa1e92df653a&newsId=1bc1b5ab-51e3-4860-8937-b181d4475989

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Wednesday, February 9, 2022  2:57pm 

(Ottawa)—It is a criminal offence to obstruct, interrupt or interfere with the lawful use, enjoyment, or operation of property.

The offence is known as mischief to property. 

The unlawful act of blocking streets in the downtown core is resulting in people being denied the lawful use, enjoyment and operation of their property.

We are providing you notice that anyone blocking streets or assisting others in the blocking of streets may be committing a criminal offence.

You must immediately cease further unlawful activity or you may face charges.

You could be arrested without a warrant for this offence if you are a party to the offence or assisting others in the direct or indirect commission in this offence.

Whether you are released on bail depends on factors contained in Part XVI of the Criminal Code.

Offence-related property, including vehicles, may be seized as part of the offence. The vehicles may be detained and, following a conviction, possibly forfeited.

Charges or convictions related to the unlawful activity associated with the demonstration may lead to denial in crossing the USA border.

It's a gamble.  Could either pay off for the government or further galvanize support for the movement (especially in international reporting).  

 

Not sure how it will shake out, but you'd have to think that the nominal leaders of the various convoy groups have been considering this for some time.  Curious to see if this is the fuse that lights the powderkeg that really shakes up the status quo.

The key is going to be getting the children out of there first.  Then you can send in the cops to give the terrorists a well deserved beatdown.

 

None of these maggots should ever be allowed near their offspring again if this is something they're willing to put them through.

Convoy talk is spread over two threads.

 

I mentioned in the other one that I am concerned about the kids said to be with their parents in about 100 trucks DT Ottawa.

 

This is going to a pickle for the cops and I hope the protesters dont clash with them while their young ones are present. Get your kids to safety for gods sake.

The thing is, the kids are still going to be with those "parents" after this is over (even if this ends in everyone holding hands & singing "Kumbaya").  One bad decision is just likely to be followed by another bad decision with these "parents" unfortunately.

Aside from the socio-political implications, it's been interesting to watch and will be very interesting to see how it's resolved

I never understood why any responsible, loving and caring parent would take their child with them to such a 'protest' to begin with. Folks been saying off and on for years that some folks should have to pass a licensing requirement to have children.....

Yep. Said basically the same thing a few days ago, when it was first revealed that there were a lot of kids with the convoy....

 

If you ask me, this is basic indoctrination.....raising their kids to be the same ignorant a$$holes that they are.....A whole new generation of Kyle Rittenhouses.....<_<

I think you have answered your own question. Anti-vaxers, anti-maskers and Covid deniers are not responsible people.

There is none. But one of the platforms that Covid deniers like to stand on is the fact that Covid is not the only cause of death, so in their opinion it should be ignored. They choose to be willfully ignorant of the obvious fact that innocent Covid victims did not voluntarily choose to inject Covid into their bodies as opioid users do with the drugs that kill them.

Hmm. Well, the government disagrees. I suppose you can pick and choose though.  Be prejudice and support equality...... Makes sense. 

 

That's on the government website you likely claim to support.

I cant find where the poster you are replying to said addiction isn't worthy of compassion or isn't considered a health issue.

 

He pointed out that opioid users inject themselves willingly. Not all opioid deaths are addicts. Some are recreational users.

 

But the main point is that covid kills and steps to reduce severity and transmission is important. You can die from contracting it without any willing participation as it is airborne, unlike opioid deaths.

Yeah, because right wingers are huge proponents of social programs aimed at helping the less fortunate.
