Canadian Bank Runs

Better for the state to burn down the country than to give up control of telling people what they can insert into their bodies, I guess.

If someone is trespassing on my property, I have the right to rob them now?

“What do you mean the bank’s all out of money!?”

Last one out, turn off the lights…

That’s what happens…and people want to do away with cash. This is precisely why cash is king.

Trip down memory lane.

Is another big steal imminent? Politics

Precisely. What people don’t understand doing away with cash…and yes even gold and silver it expose you to wimps of corrupt state. They can come in and wipe you out at time of their choosing leaving you with no means of survival. With 1 click of mouse your entire Digital currency is gone. Also what happen if major event like EMP? But mostly if you control/force digital currency on people you control them. It’s ultimate power grab.

That would be a problem.

Interesting…a lib free thread.

I also like my follow Conservatives to take heed to this as to why going all digital currency is not only bad…but extremely dangerous.

When people get angry and unruly because they have no access to funds, Brandeau will say, “That’s why we needed the state of emergency order. There can be no elections until the rioting and crime waves stop.”

Trudeau has no control over elections.

Elections are set by the crown not the House.
Trudeau has no control over them.

What does declaring a state of emergency allow the PM to do that he could not otherwise do?

How do you have an election when public assembly is banned?

The Act gives the government a range of options to enact to address a public order emergency, and in this instance federal officials are moving forward with a wide-sweeping range of new measures:

enabling the RCMP to have the jurisdiction to enforce municipal bylaws and provincial offenses;

prohibiting taking part in a public assembly where it’s considered a breach of peace and goes beyond lawful protest;

regulating the use of certain property, including goods used in blockades;

designating secure and protected places and infrastructure that are critical to the economy such as border crossings and airports;

compelling those capable to render essential services, so in this case ordering tow truck drivers to move vehicles blocking roads;

authorizing financial institutions to essentially stop the financing efforts, including immediately freezing or suspending affiliated accounts without a court order; and,

imposing fines of up to $5,000 or imprisonment of up to five years on those who breach any of the above orders.

CTVNews – 14 Feb 22

The Emergencies Act has been enacted. Here's what that means

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has made history by becoming the first leader of this country to invoke the federal Emergencies Act, to try to bring an end to the ongoing trucker convoy protests paralyzing Ottawa and border blockades. From compelling...

as you can see from the house debate, Trudeau isn’t having a fun time with it.
The House will vote next week to revoke the act or not.

If the financial system collapses, your cash will be worthless too. Bullets and toilet paper are king.

The old “we must destroy ourselves to save ourselves” metric of success. It’s been tried many times throughout history. All without success.

TheRedComet · 2022-02-17T18:52:17.541Z

Yepp.

I want to have a steady supply of bullets, guns, canned food, and pre collapse cigarettes. All will be worth their weight in gold in a scenario like that.

I could see a society like the Metro books developing around bullets. Pre collapse high quality bullets used as currency. Post collapse low grade replicas being used for the shooting.

How long until Americans figure out the same thing could happen here and do the same?
