So angry mobs interfering with a Liberal event is cause for concern, when angry mobs storming Energy East hearings or blocming railway crossings wasn't? (comment directed at the government, not The Line)

I keep thinking that Trudeau is going after private MRIs in Saskatchewan and not Ontario and Quebec is because Saskatchewan is a CPC stronghold but there are two other parties in Saskatchewan that express distaste towards the current PM.

If Trudeau can piss off enough CPC voters and turn them into Maverick or PPC voters he may be able to get a couple of NDP, or, God forbid!, Liberals in the province, that is a win for him. |

IOW, a vote for the Maverick party could be a vote for Justin Trudeau....

Trudeau knows Canadians give the benefit of the doubt to the left and that a large chunk of the NDP base will really around him if he is projected as the victim. It's his hope, but it will be a hard hill to climb to achieve victimhood status.

I was truly disturbed that security concerns resulted in a canceling of a stop for the PM. I worry that we will head down the road followed by our neighbor's to the south, and was relieved at the reactions, of the CPC and NDP Leaders. The other concerning trend I saw from the last week or so, was Police interfering with Journalist attempting to cover protests. I can think of no good reason for this, and have asked the city to explain why it happened.

I have to wonder- is opposing vaccine mandates and passports really a view that can only be regarded as on the fringe? Isn't this a view that makes sense to a lot of people? If not, I really am surprised. If my political opposite opposes them, then I'm for it; is that all the thought that went into it? I am hoping it is a silent majority type of thing.

The rally highlighted was certainly a whipped-up mob acting as a mob, and it won't be an opportunity that will go to waste. Of what I've seen and heard, it feels female (moms especially) led. I'm not judging but it is an interesting observation, I think.
