Nantucket and Minneapolis both belong to the same political union. Canada is not yet a constituent member of the United States.
Absolutely correct, but that doesn't really change the validity of either of the points that I made.

It’s not known for exactly how long the bucket was left exposed, but a text file left behind by an unnamed security researcher, dated September 2018, warned that the bucket was “not properly configured” which can have “dangerous security implications.”
So... this has been a known problem since 2018. Time to stop tilting at windmills.
i have a 4 year old daughter in ontario who has never seen her friends faces or her teacher's face. she eats outside even when it's -20. as of today, no end in sight for these rules. why? it's shameful. im surprised the civil unrest in canada isnt worse.
What? Covid is over. Everyone was unmasked yesterday at the Superbowl. I assume the premier's kids are going through the exact same restrictions. Socialized healthcare means you are all in this together right?

So they tried to "overthrow the government" by filing a petition to call for early elections? That's quite a stretch...
Well it's a matter of interpretation. You can call it just fundamental misunderstanding of the Canadian constitution, or an attempt to overthrow the government, but either way having the GG, Senate, or Elections Canada force an election while the government enjoys the confidence of the house would be a coup. I'm fine with giving the protesters the benefit of the doubt and just agreeing that they don't understand how…
Petitioning for early elections (even if impossible legally) is a far, far cry from "overthrowing the government"*.
Would you be willing to edit your original post to provide some context here?
As one of the donors included in this hack, I am not entirely sure what they're out to accomplish. Despite eye-rolling media mischaracterizations of these truckers as you-know-whats, it's a run of the mill workers strike. It has also been extremely peaceful and frankly comical at times. (We can contrast this with the "fiery yet mostly peaceful protests" of 2020 that negatively affected working class neighborhoods and…
Is this about vaccines or worker's rights?
- The Canadian Trucking Alliance have stated that between 85 and 90 per cent of truckers are already vaccinated.
- 65% of Canadians think the Freedom Convoy represents a small minority of selfish Canadians. (Leger poll)
- Hate groups spotted among the protesters include the Soldiers of Odin, Three Percenters and followers of the Soltrean hypothesis. I'm sure there are some very fine people among them as well.
- Prominent among the organizers are advocates of the "white genocide" theory.

Who is barred? I’ve travelled to Canada to visit family a number of times last year and once so far this year. I have another trip planned for late spring. Canadian citizens enter by right.
Unvaccinated Canadians older than five who have to quarantine for fourteen days. A 14 day quarantine for an endemic virus just as present in Canada as anywhere else is a de facto prohibition.

I see your poll and raise you this one https://toronto.citynews.ca/2022/02/12/two-thirds-of-canadia... where 2/3 of canada don't just dislike the protest but hate them so much they want the military to deal with them.
Schrödinger's Canadian: Simultaneously supports the occupation and wants to see it crushed.

The protest is super unpopular in canada. It could just as easily be a random canadian citizen who is pissed about the protest and wants to prove that the protest is not grass roots but foreign meddling.
The polls I've seen had ~half of Canadians sympathetic to the protests [1], and about 20% strongly supporting. It's completely true that it could be one highly motivated individual, but that has nothing to do with your first assertion (which is a mixed truth at best). I think that the government's claim (echoed by many media outlets) that this is purely a fringe movement has added fuel to the fire. [1] https://global…
