I doubt you could even adequately explain to me the details of what she wants to do, let alone link it to authoritarianism.

But hey, at least you aren’t in full hair on fire mode like the OP.

Didn’t there used to be a word for people who are forced to labor? :thinking:

She didn’t give details. She just said they were gonna do it.

She was clear enough. She starts by declaring the trucker protests as “illegal blockades”. After that all the stuff she says almost sounds normal and business as usual… if she were talking about stopping terrorists… but she isn’t. She’s saying they will apply laws that are intended for terrorists and money launderers to peaceful citizens who disagree with the government.

First: we are broadening the scope of Canada’s anti-money laundering and terrorist financing rules so that they cover crowdfunding platforms and the payment service providers they use. These changes cover all forms of transactions, including digital assets such as cryptocurrencies.

The illegal blockades have highlighted the fact that crowdfunding platforms, and some of the payment service providers they use, are not fully captured under the Proceeds of Crime and Terrorist Financing Act.

Our banks and financial institutions are already obligated to report to the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada, or FINTRAC. As of today, all crowdfunding platforms, and the payment service providers they use, must register with FINTRAC and they must report large and suspicious transactions to FINTRAC

So as far as you know, it could be some common sense, long overdue reform.

But why let facts get in the way of your feels?

Are you familiar with the parable

“The con who cried Tyranny?”

Because that’s what’s really pissing them off.

How dare they!!!

No. But considering that you people swore up and down with ridicule and pedantry that those of us who voted for and support Trump ARE NOT CONSERVATIVES…I’m not really interested. It has nothing to do with me.

Is this a deepfake?

Or did Klaus Schwab really brag about penetrating the leadership of Canada and other countries with at least half of Trudeau cabinet being young global leaders of the WEF?

Jimmy Dore has a longer clip along with some good comments:

During the George Floyd protests and riots, liberals defended blocking roads and conservatives condemned it. I guess it depends on who’s doing the protesting?

Man.

Infowars just won’t die.

As long as conservatives keep taking a hit of that conspiracy theory drug… they will always have buyers.

There is your key word. If they put up bouncy houses, saunas, fed the homeless and generally were having a good time while doing so, I wouldn’t give a ■■■■■ Let them protest till the cows come home.

I agree. But there were peaceful protests AND violent riots that summer, and some of the peaceful protesters blocked roads.

How do you figure? Your were about to tell me all about “cons” who cry tyranny. And I said … “what makes you think I care ?” and explained why I said that.
