The triggering of an official invocation of the Canadian Emergency Measures Act to eliminate protests is stunning.  Using the Emergency Act to target individual citizens in Canada, and their bank accounts, is yet again another level of astonishing. RESOURCES:

♦ Emergency Act HERE ♦ Summary Justification of Act HERE

♦ Press Release HERE ♦ Finance Minister Statement HERE

The Canadian Civil Liberties Association has announced their opposition to the government declaration:

I am carefully reviewing the details of the authorization because according to the public statements by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, they have authorized banks, financial institutions and insurance carriers to suspend the accounts of Canadian citizens based on their social media postings.

Yes, you read that correctly.   Support of “blockades and/or occupations” are specifically noted.

Anyone in Canada (individual or business) who supports or “furthers” the Freedom Convoy or Freedom Protest on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or any other social media platform, is a target to have their bank accounts frozen and insurance policies nullified.

Neil Oliver has a very specific monologue this week for the audience as he talks about the impact of COVID-19 mandates and dictates on the kids.

As Oliver rightly points out, when history reviews the events of the recent past it will not reflect well.  Our children have been brutalized mentally and physically by COVID-19 rules, mandates and regulations.  Many will be impacted forever.

Then again, if the larger goal of government is to create a fearful generation, with an outlook of blind compliance to regime dictates within a global governing system… well, from that perspective, their evil decisions make sense. WATCH:

An injunction aimed at ending a blockade by truckers, supporters and protesters at the Ambassador Bridge in Windsor, Ontario went into effect at 7:00pm tonight.  However, despite the court order even more people came to support the Freedom Protest.

Ontario police are handing out enforcement warnings in an effort to stop the blockade that has tied up cross-border traffic since Monday:

The last line says, “These measures will be permanent“?

Video from the area (below) shows crowds growing despite the court order.   Any effort to physically enforce the ruling, an outcome of Premier Doug Ford declaring a state of emergency, is going to be challenging – and could backfire.

This is sketchy.  Despite them calling the upcoming February 15th meeting of the FDA vaccine advisory committee an approval review, everyone knows the meetings are just formalities as the FDA has rubber stamped all Big Rx requests throughout the COVID-19 effort.

As a result, the FDA was only a few days away from authorizing the Pfizer vaccine for children 6months to 4-years old.  However, according to an FDA press release [SEE HERE] Pfizer asked the FDA to wait for authorization until more clinical trial data could be gathered.  Additionally, Pfizer plans on presenting the findings of a three-dose vaccine regime.

FDA Press Release – The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has been notified by Pfizer that new data have recently emerged regarding its emergency use authorization request for the use of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine in children 6 months through 4 years of age.

As part of its rolling submission, the company recently notified the agency of additional findings from its ongoing clinical trial. Based on the agency’s preliminary assessment, and to allow more time to evaluate additional data, we believe additional information regarding the ongoing evaluation of a third dose should be considered as part of our decision-making for potential authorization.

…Not just any lockdowns, this time Governor Gretchen Whitmer is apoplectic over citizen trucker lockdowns.  This is far beyond irony and is case study in how leftists need to pretend not to know things.

Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, the same governor who was full-throated to lockdown businesses in her state and destroy the economic livelihoods of michiganders for over a year, is now deeply concerned, aghast and furious over the “economic impact” being created by the trucker protest and subsequent lockdowns of the supply chain they have created by their effective blockades.

As if she cannot fathom the similarity between her government forced lockdown mandates and the recent citizen inspired lockdown consequences, the insufferable Michigan governor goes on television to decry economic impact from the Ambassador Bridge blockade.  WATCH her give all the reasons why the blockades must be removed so the multinational corporations can get back to work.

How is the business interruption from the trucker blockade any different than the business interruption from the Gretchen Whitmer lockdown?  It isn’t… The difference is who created it.

It’s not the apex of institutional hypocrisy, rather it’s the unmasking of political ideology.  The ACLU is filing a lawsuit today in Virginia demanding that mask mandates against parents and student civil liberties be reinstated.

The ACLU wants the Virginia mask mandate reinstituted.  The ACLU does not want parents and students to have a choice on whether to wear a mask.

The Washington Post headline is akin to folding the universe upon itself and looking back through the mirror: “ACLU challenges Youngkin order mandating choice on school masks.”

The civil liberties organization is arguing against allowing civil liberties.

(Washington Post) – […] The lawsuit was filed in federal court in Charlottesville on Tuesday by the American Civil Liberties Union of Virginia; the ACLU is involved in similar cases in Iowa and South Carolina. The plaintiffs represent 11 students with conditions that include cancer, cystic fibrosis, asthma, Down syndrome and diabetes that make covid-19 more dangerous.

“Universal mask use may be necessary to protect some children,” the plaintiffs write. “For many of these children, Governor Youngkin has effectively barred the schoolhouse door.”

Liberal MP Joël Lightbound lightly criticized some of the stances of Canadian Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Tuesday.  Within hours, the peer and party pressure upon him led to his removal from his position as Chairman of the Quebec caucus.

Lightbound encouraged the Trudeau government to provide targets to lifting restrictions; he was not implying that public health measures should be lifted immediately. He also committed the cardinal sin against COVID by asking for epidemiological data behind restrictions to be published, so people can see the information determining what measures need to be in place.

Transparency is against the interests of those within the government who weaponize covid fear.  The Liberal MP also spoke about the ongoing anti-mandate protests that started as a response to cross-border vaccine mandates, saying that messaging amid the demonstrations is dividing Canadians.  WATCH:

“I fear that this politicization of the pandemic risks undermining the public’s trust in our public health institutions. This is not a risk we ought to be taking lightly.  I have enough respect for my fellow Canadians not to engage in these easy and absurd labels.”

The response was immediate and severe.  There can be no dissent from leftist orthodoxy.

Something has changed in the past several days.  Likely the private COVID fear polling continued to show an overwhelming number of Americans are just done with the constant COVID-19 fear porn and mandates.

Today, several states including New Jersey and California announced they were dropping their mask mandates and many COVID-19 regulations.  In the past week there appears to have been a big shift in the narrative.  To highlight that point, the biggest fear porn and mandate seller on CNN, Dr. Leana Wen, completely reversed her position, and said it’s time to let people make their own choices.  WATCH:

Notice also how there’s been virtual silence on any further White House efforts to push the booster or vaccination program.  Last we saw the booster compliance effort, it was less than 50% of those who were previously vaccinated.  There’s definitely been a change in narrative engineer pressure for more COVID pushing overall – vaccinations, regulations and/or masks.

Last point, Zach on Twitter had been searching for a video for quite some time that he just recently found again and shared.  It’s a video of Dr. Leana Wen from several years ago.  It really makes you stand back and think.  The video is very weird.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau reappeared in Parliament this evening.  The timing was transparently predictable when contrast against the urgency, and state of emergency the local government declared Sunday to get rid of the freedom protestors.

Exactly on cue, Trudeau appears to clutch his pearls, tell the people of Canada that he understands the “frustration” of the few but appreciates the “overwhelming majority” of Candian citizens who love him and support his COVID policies, despite their being “tired of the pandemic.”  Those who followed the rules and worshipped at the altar of his magnanimous COVID leadership are “the real Canadian voices” Trudeau declared.

Trudeau continued by saying the Canadians who “stepped up, to support one another” express the true meaning of being Canadian.  The protest group are a hate-riddled minority of unclean “swastika” waving outsiders, walking around Ottawa “insulting and jeering” local residents “for wearing a mask.”

Trudeau told the chamber, the protest group “is not the story of this pandemic.”   He accused the protest group of “attempting to block the economy” without regard for their collective responsibility to “support their fellow Canadians.”  WATCH:

CANADA – […] “The protesters in Ottawa are “trying to blockade our economy, our democracy and our fellow citizens’ daily lives. It has to stop,” Trudeau said Monday night in the House of Commons.  “The people of Ottawa don’t deserve to be harassed in their own neighbourhoods.” (read more)

A disturbing video [Full Video Link] shows a seriously unstable set of Ottawa police officers targeting and arresting an 80-year-old man for the crime of blowing his car horn (I think).

A shorter version of this video is going viral on social media as the Ottawa police department begins “enhanced enforcement techniques,” at the request of municipal and provincial government officials.  There’s some salty language here as the Canadian police begin to go full Australia with the arrests in/around the Freedom Protest groups.

The elderly man, albeit a little salty with the officers, was identified by police as a non-compliant threat to their authority.  He is then roughly manhandled, put on the ground and eventually handcuffed and taken away.  His current status is unknown. WATCH (Prompted)
