Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

Gerald Butts is an evil genius. Just watched Blackie answer questions in Toronto. His loyal media discussed with him how personal attacks by Scheer against him, and Scheer’s campaign of division is causing threats of violence against Justin. Why even “Greta” may be in danger when she visits Alberta. We know what people in Alberta are like. Another great day of fear mongering by Great Leader. Must be Doug Ford’s fault.
Hopefully when Greta visits Alberta we have a cold spell.
It would be real nice if her electric car runs out of juice somewhere on the bald prairie, to be rescued by a nice Albertan, who asks her, “why do you want it to be colder?”
Rescued by a nice Albertan rollin coal in a bro’d out F350 dually.
and turbo charged coal burner
What effect do all of Canada’s efforts have in fighting global warming? Like moving two houses north on your street. Meanwhile China and India are building two thousand coal fired power plants and the Russians and Americans haven’t bought in.
Yes I challenge her to stay this winter in a tipi with no power, phone, water, outhouse or heat, other than buffalo chips. And walk to Edmonton once a month for supplies.
Yeah, because they don’t have winter in balmy Sweden.

She’s a 16yro celebrity. She doesn’t know shit from Shinola.
Actually, she has no clue what Shinola is and her head is full of Gang Green propaganda shit.
Another unwiped ass comes to town. If she comes to my neck of the woods, I will burn some old tires in her honor. Along with a Canadian Red Rag.

What he wanted to say was that only kkkanadian white males are racist.
conservative white males
Definitely military, and those backpacks are packin’ full autos. JMO
Looks like the “gunmen” are missing some gals!
Can’t understand why since Allah Deen would have Canadians believe wymens are just as good as men at everything.
In this photo, I saw it noted in a DM article that JustIn was wearing a bulletproof vest … because of “unspecified threats” against his life. Yeah, right … that’s what slumping politicians say when they are facing electoral defeat. You can BET that Joe Biden or Lieawatha will pull the same stunt.
Everything with this government is street theatre and false.
Exactly.
I think this could be a Butts charade to get sympathy votes for Justin.
Or maybe Trudeau is afraid his own party will dump him.
Interesting website coming soon?
http://www.chrystia.ca
Personally, Chrystia would be just as bad as Trudeau.
Reminds me of his father declaring the War Measures Act and unleashing the Canadian Armed Forces on the streets of Montreal and Quebec City. His famous line of “Just Watch Me!”
Yup. The majority of Canadians think turdo la first was being tough and brave when he called in the troops, but he called them in because one of his inner sanctum was killed….he was actually shitting his pants.
As a 21-year-old immigrant to Canada, living in a rooming house in Quebec, and only six weeks in and waiting for my landed immigration interview, I had my room searched by the RCMP. Nearly 50 years ago, I think it was when Pierre LaPorte was murdered. No fun.
yah 6-10 FLQ’rs were a scary lot
The good news for the FLQ was that they had an ally in crazy Peeair… Peeair gave the FLQ everything they demanded and then some, talk about giving in to terrorists… I real PM would’ve had those snivelling twits slaughtered at the first opportunity, fortunately for the FLQ they had Peeair watching their backs enabling and rewarding them. A page right of one of Peeairs favorite books, Mein Kampf.
Were you living there at the time? They blew the front off a house down my street. You didn’t approach mailboxes in my part of Montreal. One guy got whacked defusing the construction union explosive supplied bombs.
They murdered the Liberal Party Labor Minister, Pierre LaPorte while kidnapping the British Trade Commissioner in the end. The perps then served time in sunny Cuba for ten years and were quietly allowed back. One served a year in jail for his crime. You’ve paid baksheesh of $10 plus BILLION a year to keep these commie Castroite, shi hads alive economically, while Federal employees from Kaybeque spend their wages you’re coerced to pay, supporting a commie shizzhole, while it’s re-created here.
I have no doubt that Trudeau, like Harper and other Prime Ministers, has had serious threats to his life. Given the complete disgrace and contempt Trudeau would receive from Canadians if he faked a security threat, I think there was a real threat last night.
I also think Team Trudeau and his journalists are milking this for all it is worth which is tacky and reeks of desperation. Canadian security personnel are being turned into props for election gain. Not a classy or dignified move at all.
More concerning to me is the security threat was so serious that it required a unprecedented security presence to protect Trudeau but not so serious that it required evacuating the Liberal party supporters or cancelling the event. That seems incongruent. Unless, of course, the risk of injury to Liberal party supporters while protecting himself was a sacrifice Team Trudeau was willing to make. What does that say about Trudeau’s character? Nothing good. Is Trudeau like the rich aristocrat guy in the Titanic movie who sneaks onto the women and children’s lifeboat? Looking out for number 1, to hell with everyone else. The people at the Liberal campaign rally are husbands and wives, fathers and mothers too….just like Trudeau. What about their safety?
Trudeau – Canada’s Hockley fleeing from the election Titanic (or perhaps a possible SNC investigation?) Haha

But as someone pointed out, where was the security detail at the entrance? I wouldn’t be at all surprized if this is all hogwash theater. But our $600 million media and $1,5 billion CBC will assure us that it is all kosher and only racists, haters and sundry planet destroying deniers will not believe.
I can see why it’s difficult to give Trudeau the benefit of the doubt. Trudeau has a difficult relationship with the truth, to say the least. “To such people, there’s no difference between the truth and a lie undiscovered”.
But going that low? Manufacturing a fake threat for a few votes or to slime opposition parties? That would be lowest of the low. Unforgivable if discovered.
No, I think there was a threat of some sort and Team Trudeau decided not to let the opportunity go to waste. They “embellished” the threat level but forgot to think about obvious inconsistencies like why would they put their own supporters at grave risk if the threat was as so serious it required Trudeau being surrounded by security, blast blankets and a wearing a military vest. Or not securing the entrance or searching guests, if that’s accurate. Actions (or lack of) that are incongruent with the dramatic photo and breathless reporting of a severe security threat.
An analogy:
In my lab we had a chart of mandatory Action Levels from an international body. Each action level corresponded to specific standard operating procedures. If the contamination in the boiler was in action level 1 then we did X. The higher the level, the greater the action required and the less leeway in allowable time frames.
That’s where this becomes confusing to me. On one hand the “action level ” of the security threat against Trudeau appears quite high, unprecedented even. On the other hand, other actions indicate it wasn’t that serious of an action level because some pretty standard operating procedures seem to have been overlooked. I’m not sure how to reconcile the inconsistencies without more information.
Anyone have the number for a foreign press reporter who might be curious? Time? UK Spectator?
Good insight. Only foreign media can be trusted to investigate properly.
LC, but if this was a bright idea from the fertile mind of Gerald Butts, no one but him would know it was false. The RCMP are just ecstatic at the chance to show the public how tough and all powerful they are, so strutting around a Liberal Party event full of unarmed Party supporters is the best event for them since High River.
As to the threat, the example they’d have to show could have been sent over the internet from anywhere at any time, probably from Gerald on his lunch break.
Seriously, what would be the point of making threats against the most inconsequential human in the history of the planet?
No one ever tries to assassinate street mimes at the various events they appear at; why do it when a street mime is pretending at something else?
Sympathy vote. It’s a popularity contest. Paints the opposition as brutes.
They have to go further to beat Bolsanaro in Brazil; he was stabbed and hospitalized.
Meanwhile, there was no security presence at the entrance to the event. People were coming in and going out throughout his appearance. As well, no one guarding Cabinet Ministers when they spoke at the podium and joined the crowd. This was theatre to change the narrative. From blackface to victim.
LC it was all a phony set up, Because the army would not be there if it was a real threat. jt2f would have been there, not pongos
Im gonna guess it was sophie who threatened groper mcblackface. A woman’s scorn….
Total False Flag operation. Two items stand out that this is fully orchestrated street theatre.
1. Walmart backpacks
2. Fake military badges and insignias.
Looks legit to Low Infos that vote Liberal and never question anything. As was pointed out in the Twit thread, there was no security, of any kind, at the doors entering the building. Just more Fake Virtue Signalling by the Clown Prince
“2. Fake military badges and insignias.”
I got yer “fake military badge/insignia right here.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Rangers
Worn on their chest? No.
The Rangers? Umm, definately, no.
“Worn on their chest? No.
The Rangers? Umm, definately, no.”
Worn on the chest. Yes. Canadian Rangers Yes.

I could show you dozens of picture of Canadian Rangers with their Badge/Insignia on their chests. Dozens.
I can’t imagine any circumstances where the Rangers would be providing security for the PM. That’s the RCMPs job.
Okay, so here’s the problem, why would trudeau’s security detail pick a regiment that specializes in northern recon, and long distances operating in small groups, for close in protection, which is something that they really aren’t experts in?
The placement of the badge is irrelevant. The badge on his chest does not match the Canadian Rangers badge. The Canadian Rangers badge is rounded in top as well as under the Canadian Rangers wording. Theirs are straight. The spacing between the lines with Canadian Ranger inside them are 1/3 of the badge. Theirs are not. Those are not Rangers badges
Lily white rangers? They don’t look like the typical indigenous ranger to me.
Yes, Terry Etam, those are Canadian Rangers badges. I’ve seen that they are on my 55″ 4K monitor. Same Same.
RCMP with beards? No.
No, Greg Grandy. Not all Rangers are Indians/Eskimos.
See my: October 13, 2019 at 1:47 pm link
Sorry Oz, wrong, even Lilley pointed that out. See closeup of badge on the Twit thread. Think FALSE FLAG. Its the Liberals after all.
Do I think Trudeau would push a false flag like this. YES.
Are these Canadian Rangers? Yes.
Could they be participating in a False Flag Operation without know it’s a false flag? Yes.
When you’re PM you have all of these kinds of resources at your disposal. Is Trudeau above using them? No.
Trudeau is not above anything. Trudeau is lower than a snake’s rectum.
OoZ phukk off already and try being a man and admit you are wrong for once McStupid
Ooz those are NOT ranger badges, as was pointed out, the ranger badges are rounded at the top
The Canadian Rangers operate up North and are composed mostly of Inuit.
There are Rangers on the west Coast too, mostly involved in exercises, S&R, etc, white guys. Still had 303 Enfields 20 years ago.
What was the context of this photo – How I hate Twitter?
Still had Lee Enfield No.4 rifles, .303British a couple years ago. And they are reservists, part-time. You just wouldn’t bring such people to the urban south to do close security for a possible assassination target in a large indoor venue crowded with civilians.
the Tooner, did you click on my links showing pictures of the Canadian Rangers? No? second one is holding a C7 full auto assault rifle. We had a thread right here at SDA about 7 years ago discussing the Canadian Government outfitting these Canadian Rangers with C7s and providing an unlimited supply of ammo. The Enfields are for shooting polar bears.
Better penetration. Polar bears are the apex predator of North America. Tougher than grizzlies. .303 cal beats 5.65mm.
There are more than 400 Canadian Rangers that operate out of CFB Borden Ontario. Many CR are multi-ethnic.
What amazes me is how many of the twitterati on that thread seem to think they are experts on the Canadian military. They seem to be confusing the Canadian Rangers with American Rangers. Do any of the guys with the Walmart backpacks look like Inuit (or other northern first nations) to you? Because I am pretty sure that is all you would find in the ranks of the Canadian rangers.
You’d be wrong, Garth. The farther north or more remote you get, the higher the proportion of First Nations you are likely to find in a Ranger Patrol, but recruitment is not based on race or ethnicity, it’s on living in the operating area of a Patrol.
But that doesn’t mean those individuals posing as armed security for PM Castreau are Rangers. Even if it that is a Ranger emblem on their shirts (which I can’t see enough of to be sure one way or the other, and the only uniform shirt I’ve heard of the Rangers being issued is a red sweatshirt) doesn’t mean it isn’t Liberal party volunteers or commercial security guards performing security theatre,
I can’t imagine any scenario in which Rangers would be providing the PMs security, even if he was travelling in their patrol area. The PMs security is an RCMP task.
Or in this case the task of professional actors.
McTurd would DEMAND jt2f to save his ass, as that would show how important he was,
The captain of our local rangers and many of his soldiers are friends of mine because we all like to shoot at our rifle range. They still had their 303s last year. Supposed to be getting new Canadian design and manufacture 308 bolt actions soon (semi autos are not reliable when it gets really cold and if you shoot a bear with a 22 it gets really mad at you) but I haven’t seen any yet.
I think probably half or more of the guys and gals have status cards but I would Bet you dinner out that you couldn’t pick more than three just by looking at them.
The Tooner has it right. Race or ethnicity are not considered. Can he/she do the job? Will they obey orders? Are the only important questions.
I’m guessing they are private security. None of the usual suspect crests, military or civilian, seem to match. Canadian Rangers are trained to a level just a little below Boy Scout.
CBC says they’re members of the RCMP tactical squad.If they truly loved our beloved PM they’d have had the entire JTF2 there to protect his lyin’ ass.
This is a setup to justify the gun control/confiscation legislation that Bill Blair intends to table in the House if they are re-elected. Blair’s promise should be enough to make every gun owner nervous and disinclined to vote Liberal,Dipper,or Green.
JTF2 is military, not RCMP.
They were JTF2.
RCMP tactical units are clean shaven in case they need to don gas masks and use tear gas. Beards can corrupt the seal of the mask, and let gases into the mask.
Only JTF2 operators would go about with facial hair like that. And they often escort members of the cabinet when they are abroad, especially in dangerous place like Afghanistan or Iraq. In Canada that’s exclusively an RCMP responsibility.
Theatrics and costumes. Gee, what a surprise. Someone, please school me in how security detail works. If there had been a serious security threat against the PM, wouldn’t it have been better to cancel his appearance? A threat against the PM is also a threat against those in attendance, is it not?
100% behind what Ontario John says.
In fact, I imagine that this may be a way to try to intercept, what may well be substantiated, rumours that rhyme with “eventeen” and “oolgirl”
And, there is the bonus of trying to allude that this is all based on threats from White Nationalists (of the non-Quebec kind, Bloc-kind is allowed)
If you read the twitter thread, there was an interesting photo of the entrance. Not so much as a mall cop at the door. Pure theatre for the low info crowd.
ANTIFAS in disguise
Another costume party. Tomoorow they’ll declare martial law and put off the election till the polls improve.
I remember military driving around in Montreal and doing guard duty at certain homes and rumour of people getting hauled off to be interviewed.
As bad as threats of violence are, nobody gave a shit about it when the Toronto 18 Islamic terrorists were planning to decapitate Harper. In fact Liberals laughed about it and many still wish it came to pass. Liberals are filthy hypocrites and PM Dickspank is the biggest of them all, but he’d milk a rabid dog’s tit dry to get a vote, even if it got some of his nameless supporters injured.
Those backpacks ain’t Copper Basin that’s for sure.
RCMP.
They do close protection for the PM et al.
I know that RCMP males are allowed beards to fulfill a religious requirement, but I’m sure uniform code forbids it otherwise.
I suspect that the security forces in evidence were real police/military/ex-military. I have no idea why they were there since this was supposed to be a liberal event so screening of people entering would have been fairly simple. I can’t imagine anyone wanting to do harm to Justin Twojets unless someone from his own party is upset because he is losing so badly. Either way it is a sad day for Canada that the PM would have a public dress rehearsal or that someone would threaten a sitting PM with violence in the middle of an election.
When Liberal friendly courts tell the Liberals that they must allow non-friendly reporters/journalists to cover their events, this kind of sulking overreaction can be expected. This could be a Liberal idea of how to make a sows ear into a silk purse.
A real security detail in close quarters, in a crowd, would not be wearing backpacks. It would be too easy for someone to grab and toss you around by it. Also, would you want to be wearing one if you were fighting someone hand to hand? I don’t see a quick-release on those packs. (retired Army Officer)
There may be some requirement to carry specialized equipment based on the nature of the assessed threat.
He might get milk-shaked.
there you go again JJM, speaking out in ignorance again, The Turd does not care about protocols, as long as he is so important in his mind, he would demand jt2f, and get it , just like his step dad , got his war measures act, martial law
Maybe they are those bullet proof, Kevlar back packs they started selling after the rash of school shootings!
/s
What about the two women who were shot in diverse Toronto last night? Where were their police protection? Oh I forgot, Blackie will stop daily crimes like that when he bans assault rifles. Seems like Groper’s protective detail needs assault rifles in Toronto though. Strange, President Trump has agents in suits with hidden glocks, but Justin has to play the drama queen to put the blame on Conservatives.
Mr. Dressup playing another game of ‘Let’s Pretend’.
Someone once called Justin’s papa the first Canadian prime minister worthy of assassination.
As it is, Justin is slowly starting to understand, better than his father did, just how hated the House of Trudeau really is among Canadians who have been paying for his father’s mistakes their entire adult lives. Which is progress, of a sort.
That it fits the left’s narrative that conservatives are scary – lack compassion – something that the right has done a miserable job of refuting – AND it plays into the view on the right that the left will stop at nothing including engaging in goebbels-like propaganda events (remember the “Soldiers in our streets” slur in a previous campaign?) it is a recipe for antagonizing the divide in this country even more.
Does anyone think that the threats against JT are more than what any POTUS sees on a daily basis or what PMSH experienced? And did any of them resort to bulletproof jackets and visible security?
Despicable IMO regardless of there really is a threat.
Notwithstanding the rest of Gord’s post, I will say that the meme that Conservatives are scary will outlive all of us regardless of lived experience. It’s no different than “Liberals are spendthrifts” disregarding the fact that Chretien/Martin basically balanced the federal budget.
Hate to keep hearing that old canard that Chretien and Martin balanced the budget.
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/government-broke-law-on-ei-financing-in-3-years-top-court-1.750084
They didn’t balance the budget they contrived some hokey-pokey to con Canadians that they were adept managers of Canada’s finances, and that coming from Liberals has proven time and time again to be a far stretch short of the truth.
“disregarding the fact that Chretien/Martin basically balanced the federal budget.”
A Deficit is when you spend more than you’re bringing in. Doing so creates or adds to the Debt.
Balancing the Budget means you’re Taking In as much as you Spend.
Chretien/Martin basically balanced the federal budget by not Honoring their Duty to RETURN the full moneys that they owed the Provinces for Spending on Programs the Feds forced on the Provinces in the 1st place. This impoverished the Provinces.
The Chretien/Martin regime WERE Spendthrifts, they were also Deadbeats when it came to reimbursing the Provinces.
This Highlights a perfect example of why Equalization has got to Stop. The PURSE was meant to be held by the Provinces.
The Provinces gave the power of the purse to the Federal Government because of needing to finance WWI. It’s been PAID.
The Confederation Act of 1867 never meant for the Federal Government to have this kind of power over the Provinces.
Amazing how many “educated” people don’t know this, ain’t it oz?
lance no they didn’t they down loaded the federal deficit onto the provinces, and that is all.
WOW! No attempt to drop a steaming six coiler on my head? Well butter my butt and call me a biscuit! You’re slipping NME.
Can it be that you hate lance more than you do me? What have I done to dampen your unstaunchable hatred of me?
Ooz you are LIV idiot, remember when I told you that the only black man in Kennedy’s SS detail, and you wanked off about not being a racist. Well when some one defends against a non accusation it can be considered a confession. And I don’t like racists or stupid people. And one of the down falls of a superior IQ is intolerance of stupidity . Lance was wrong, you are stupid
Sorry, but no one is going to convince me that the whole thing isn’t a sympathy hoax cooked up by Butts, and the narrative carted out by the bought and paid for media. Part and parcel of the Drama Queens claim that EVERY Canadian is a racist. Except Blackie Blackface of course. As far as I am concerned it is a new low for the Libranos, but no surprise.
He has the latest in bullet proof vests but his has Care Bears on it. Who would waste a bullet?
You see Scheer is now “Angry Andrew” and a lot of non-existent people think that is a exhortation to attack poor Justin.
Canadians are supposed to be afraid for themselves because Justin think he needs even more security. Job security maybe?
Plus the phantom but apparently anonymous “extreme right wing” key tappers, appealing to their worst instincts, not voting Grit.
Add that to people with inside information on the Scheer team, aka people who don’t know him, say his organization is in disarray.
Like I said buckle up for extra heapings of slime from the statist sycophant media, PM Pinocchio and his crony puppet masters.
To the idea CPC has less efficient vote, consider this. Yes over 50% in AB, but nowhere in QC with higher population.
Bottom line: CPC doesn’t need QC for majority, Grits do.
Add to that the Grits are on the vote menu for NDP, Greens everywhere, plus the PPC and Bloc in QC, that balances out?
Global News is extra irritated because Scheer and the CPC are obviously pretending not to be scared of the mediocracy.
They are the “soldiers in our streets,” but they consider themselves the Royal Guard of Gritland’s neo-regency.
https://globalnews.ca/news/6027885/andrew-scheer-conservative-tone/
In the Global article (written by three people whose names I’ve never seen before), a conservative “organizer” in Ontario is granted anonymity so that he can tell the press that he thinks the real poll numbers for the CPC are poorer than officially reported. Yeah, right.
I haven’t watched any of the big network news shows for a long time. My wife can’t stand it when I’m yelling back at the TV.
Because the best way to have a credible threat is to broadcast your intentions! It’s pretty clear even a hint would have them breaking down your door.
No wonder the Libs are desperate and pulling out False Flags and bigger lies than ever. 338canada.com has them DOWN and now tied for projected seats with CPC. First time since the election call. Clearly, the Libs are fading in Ontario while Meethead splits the vote.
Paralyzed parliament, where we come. No wonder the Libs are calling out their PAID FOR MEDIA this weekend, soldiers defending Trudeau, Angry Scheer (Global) and the Ceeb lawsuit.
Can anyone say PATTERN? The Libs know they are in trouble, you can smell their desperation!
Yes. Once Canadians smell that fear, especially in Quebec wrt Ontario, the Trudeau and the Mediocracies show will close out.
Contrast Grits’ latest tax breaks for millionaires scare ad with his 2015 fake populist and fake grunts at adoring millennials.
From what I’ve seen the millennials get Trudeau better than anybody. They know they’re not part of the gravy grain except as the future payers into that system. It’s good to see the Grits pulling their own teeth and setting on fire hair not yet pulled out.
Why would the liberals want a security detail to be so obviously visible?
That seems to be the intent.
And do it in a way that the media would highlight it.
If these guys are JTF2 they just got compromised by having their identity published.
Way to go Trudeau.
Why would they want their security very visible?
a) to show how brave our Dear Leader is.
b) to imply that gun toting conservatives are threatening our Dear Leader.
c) to try and increase the female vote for Trudeau.
d) to have the media slam Scheer if he didn’t denounce violence towards elected officials very quickly.
Well those are plausible points.
The question though was more rhetorical.
Let me rephrase.
Why is an organization that makes its business to be unseen let their members be seen?
Answer is they don’t and the RCMP security detail also makes a point of being invisible.
These are party staffers.
The fact is it’s more a danger to the sock monkey to be in a room with sharp objects than anyone on the right.
The RCMP close-protection detail isn’t very invisible, even when they’re wearing plaid shirts, jeans, and cowboy hats to “blend in” at a Stampede breakfast.
From what I heard Afghanistan showed JTF2 to be a bunch of poseurs so they’d fit right in protecting Mr. Potato.
Joseph, I wasn’t trying to take a shot at your comment, I was intending to build on it.
They may be party staffers. And they’ll become Justin’s goon squad if the turd I’d re-elected.
This whole threat bullshit smells of Butts, There is not one Canadian that would risk a jail term to off this buffoon.
Crisis actor gonna act.
Maybe some disaffected Liberal threatened him. I believe many long standing Liberals are not happy with Justin at the helm.
Men who might be in various tactical units can collect various shirts and other bits of gear. Some of it has badges on it. Some of them work for private security firms. Some might even be in legit RCMP security details of various kinds and still end up with various bits of Rangers or other tacticool gear on.
The look is very informal – seen in a group they stand out but if you saw one of them he wouldn’t stand out that much. I’d go with private security contractors. Which would also explain why there was no security at the door and the mismatch between alleged threat and response.
Lastly, these guys are clearly standing out and are meant to be a deterrent. Security wearing uniforms and such are intimidating and help prevent random loonies rushing the stage. Real preventative security are invisible. You never notice them.
OMG! Justin is such a brave hero! Walking into the face of danger to proclaim his devotion to feminism. He’s so dreamy.
Yes…there are canadians that believe this.
He is devoted to the idea that he is devoted, so if you like that idea then vote for him.
“there are canadians that believe this.”
There were enough Canadians who were stupid enough to vote for him and the Libs in the 1st place.
That is the Canada Alberta should say “We’re Leaving to.” “Hated knowing you A-Holes.” But first Trudeau must GO.
Makes no difference if these Eastern Dirtbags have a momentary flirtation with sanity, they always revert to being abusers.
So the PM wears a vest and is literally surrounded by an RCMP tactical team because there’s potentially a threat in the audience, but the front door was left unguarded and the audience was allowed to come and go without being checked.
Makes. No. Sense.
Neither. Does. This.
**So let me get this right:
Yesterday in closed event of Liberal supporters only — #TrudeauCorruption needed unprecedented security on stage with bulletproof vests.
Today in open streets with a venue that is much harder to secure no bulletproof vests or unprecedented security**
https://twitter.com/manny_ottawa/status/1183538652787421184
Perhaps Justin is hearing stories that some people in his own party want to dump him.
Justawful is damaged goods. Proof #1. Have you seen Chrystia’s ugly mug in front of every camera in Canada for a long time? No, because she’s another narcissist who won’t damage her brand by fawning over a loser. The minute the SNC Lavalin stuff was released (by the Americans first I think) and connected to proven corruption she disappeared. Soros may have decided to stop funding the low IQ incompetent. By the time the blackface pics appeared I’m sure a lot of supporters increased their speed of retreat from a worldwide screw up. He made it through getting rid of JWR and JP, but the rumors about the dirty reputation of the company flew wildly in Montreal. I got reports from a completely apolitical friend in Montreal that never reached the English press. There was a storm of gossip.
Let’s see, India clown show, insulting an old lady in Quebec because she complained about taxes and immigrants, tweeting that immigrants could just walk across the border by the thousands in Quebec, giving millions to a terrorist, fronting every gay pride parade during election season, brownface apologizing to 2 little black girls, Trudeau’s wife absent from the ONE short English campaign debate.You get the idea. The Tipping Point was somewhere in the never ending mess hiding behind greedy presstitutes.
Canadians of sound mind are beyond disgusted. They don’t like being taken for suckers. The pushing 50 years old boy cried wolf too many times. With so little choice, Canucks might stay home on Election Day.
Highly ironic that the media have been running stories about disinformation and fake news, yet this is mostly what they report themselves, from the non-existent “climate crisis/emergency” to this security threat which appears to be standard Liberal make-believe.
Meanwhile, they don’t even touch on the obvious issue that is developing, a threat to national unity if the left does well in this election. I don’t even live in Alberta and I am becoming an Alberta separatist, or at least a western separatist, if this is going to be the pattern of federal and B.C. provincial politics, then there will be many even inside British Columbia who will want out of this crazy anti-resource nuthouse and into something that we can control ourselves. Who wants to be ruled by these nitwits from the left coast and the big cities of eastern Canada? This is not going to end well, a full-blown separatist movement will emerge the day after the left takes power in Canada and that is what the NDP and Greens are trying to accomplish by having the balance of power. The Bloc of course are just as bad for western interests although they might not be as hostile to Alberta on a personal level.
Canadians need to realize that it’s not just everybody against Alberta, it’s going to turn into a fight between those who want a functioning economy and those who deal in socialist make believe. When conservative forces outside Alberta see any chance that Albertans would separate, the entire country will be engulfed in a similar battle. This should be happening within this election campaign but Scheer has been so timid that he won’t take on the issue full-blast, instead he hints and postures as a centrist, another all things to all people politician who at the end of the day is nothing to nobody.
That Mickey Mouse garb looks like a bunch of hand me downs from papa fidel .
So here’s how he’s going to justify a gun grab–no facts, no reality, just a feeling of danger.
Turbans. Turbans are the missing piece of “Soldiers with guns… in our streets”
Only Sikh parades get the armed soldiers, maybe these guys are transgender activists or something?
You can pick out the rcmp in every crowd. They stand out.
Bongo’s old man pulled the flak jacket stunt and now so has his loser son. Desperate times call for desperate actions.
Just finished listening to Stefan Molyneux. If you wish to hear him flounder like yourselves, go to the link below.
Sophie and the children were to attend the event and returned to their hotel because of the threat. So now we have one other person besides Trudeau. the liar in chief, and Butts, the big-chief liar, who knows what really happened. Actually a 4th because someone in the RCMP knows definitely whether or not there is any credible evidence of a threat.
Trudeau and Butts in the meantime are killing themselves laughing at how easily it was pulled off. A slush fund, a threat that all libs “know” came from Trump-inspired cons, and they’ve just won the next election.

The public is owed a more detailed explanation of the alleged threat. Such an explanation obviously need not include details of sources and methods of intelligence gathering and analysis.
What has been provided so far, however, is a sensational and entirely vague assertion, along with a lurid description of supposed responsory measures. This is wholly inadequate in the situation.
I agree with much of the back and forth above about what I, in my ignorance, view as the oddness of those responsory measures: as an example, it’s disclosed that the PM is wearing a bullet-proofed vest, which would, I think, indicate that an attack involving one or more firearms was suspected to be imminent, which, if it happened, would require instantaneous action by security personnel, including the possibility of shooting back to neutralize the threat.
Quite apart from why the PM would inexplicably expose a large gathering of his very own defenceless supporters to such a potentially dangerous situation, which would surely have had the knock-on effect of causing panic in the auditorium, why do all the claimed security personnel have their defensive equipment stored in carrying bags on their backs (including the plain-clothed officer — not in “tactical” garb — allegedly carrying a flexible ballistic shield with which to further protect the PM)? Having to remove the carrying bags from their backs, access and remove any weaponry from the carrying bags, possibly ready it for use — all the while keeping visual contact with the target and physically protecting the PM, possibly in the midst of panic — doesn’t seem to me, on its face, likely to produce “instantaneous action”.
All of the specific details I cite are asserted in the curiously-worded CBC news report on the matter:

So, do tell us, please:
– what was the nature of the threat, exactly?
– generally, how did the intelligence services discover the threat: from broad-view “catch all” on-line surveillance, was it phoned-in, had the intelligence services had suspects under surveillance, etc? (Lord knows, in this country, it would be far too much to ask whether there was an ideological or similar motivation discerned by authorities, or what was the identity of the prospective perpetrators — unless, of course, the threat was definable on these counts as “white conservative”, whatever that is, in which case the details would be immediately and gleefully disclosed, which they have not been.)
– how long had the authorities known about the threat (known wolf, for example)?
– how did it happen that the authorities only came to respond to the threat once it was extant in the auditorium?
Among other questions.
Is it just me, or does the timing of this “death threat” appear extremely coincidental… Just as the C’s are trending toward at least a minority government?
Must be the machavalian in me.
Whatever happened, those are not Rangers.
They have no one in their classification who does this sort of work. No one.
Joe: EXACTLY my thoughts! It funny how Trudeau went onto Newmarket the next day without the security so tight around him. It was back to the regular security…he is the BIGGEST STUPID actor. His numbers were way down at the Mississauga event HIS Liebral member were saying a number of about 2000 check the Rebel Ezra’s show someone sent a photo maybe 400 and the person whom took the photo also did a count of all whom attended. If Trudeau is worried about being a target he seem very happy to be a target laughing out loud. NO SECURITY at the main door where people were coming and going!!! WHERE WAS THAT SECURITY TO KEEP ALL THE VOTERS SAFE…NADA!! FAKE TRUDEAU!!
