Defaced is a bit extreme.. it’s not like they spray painted it and then knocked it over
Lol when the were like pulling g down statues and throwing paint on monuments was “courageous lol”
@John Mnemonic yes, they also laid out the plans for mass genocide. We we call them murderers as well.
Doesn’t matter
Deface is kind of used properly. If you touch a statue you are considered to be defacing it as it does change. Look into the results of touching statues.
@Adam Josey 6600 dislikes. I have the youtube like/dislike app. Shows me the like and dislikes.
since when is wearing a flag disrespectful !!?
@Dianna Wilson means a country in distress
@Island Aerial Having the flag upside down implies “down with Canada” Terry would have never stood with you mouth breathing, knuckle draggers
@Moe Veggies No, an upside down flag doesn’t imply “down with Canada”….
@Love is the Answer that what i was wondering about
rather since when was it okay for a senator and the LGBT flag but not the canadian …..lol
Putting a canadian flag on a Canadian hero…..truly unimaginable terror
@ROOKTABULA well at least u are sure of something even know you are WRONG
@Klaus Wigsmith neither was Christopher Columbus
@Linda Berg and they do it to our nation in American democratic Canadians defaced Christopher Columbus I have footage of Canadian flags being flown in an alleged peaceful protest. So grow up
@E.E I got many where should I post them
@Kevin Larson the flag is only supposed to be upside down to indicate distress
This is one of the most pathetic things I’ve ever seen. If anyone buys any of this there’s no hope for them.
Canadian Boomers will, they’re the ones driving this pandemic with gullible hysteria.
n hope fr you when you cant see the big picture!!!
True, but isn’t it amazing how they just can’t help themselves by opening their mouths and showing all who they really are
🤮
@C M Thanks my friend!
Never knew that defacing means wrapping the national flag around. Oxford time to update your dictionary.
A Upside Down Canada Flag Means A Country Or Nation In A State Of Distress & Need For Help
@Cobra strike LMFAO yeah the citizens can decide because our government’s gone rogue and none of the government’s rules matter anymore nobody should follow any of them.
@brian Where is this video of someone dancing on the tomb? I’ve searched youtube and only found someone jumping in front of it and googling I only found written articles.
@Veronika I thought the same thing… there is nothing out there… weird hey?! And strangely familiar
@TheJimprez exactly. Way less than 10%.
The Last Castle
” Deface or defacing” is the damaging of immovable or moveable property by means of painting, marking, scratching, drawing, or etching with graffiti.
They like to change the meaning of words these days🙄
@Kelley Gee all the lefties would love a job at the Records Department of the Ministry of Truth
Nope. It’s literally to spoil the appearance or surface of something. It’s not limited to what you want to limit it to.
@Cobra strike spoil the appearance?…so what do u call making a statue of a patriot more patriotic?.. id call that honouring and decorating🤷🏼♀️
@Cobra strike its not permanent tho, and thats only your opinion that the appearance is spoiled, other opinions would differ
It’s halarious how desperate you are to make this look bad.
@Chuck Hudlim , and I agree with you chuck
@Buck Rogers , totally. I appreciate what the truckers are doing. But dont agree with dancing on someones grave and messing with statues
@Cheryl Rix the statue was not defaced
@great testimony ohhhhh noooooooo I’m shakin in my boots let me find a crowd with as many chicks I can tongue kiss and perform cpr on
@Cheryl Rix blm did it
These government are trying really hard to divide this shows
Its pathetic. They decorated the statue lol.
This is all they have ? What an embarrassment. They are reaching hard
Suddenly they care about small businesses being able to function unimpeded.
And statues
True!!!
their game is over..their narratives is crumbling…Canadians are taking back control
🤣
Right?
I knew they would find something to show how bad the protesters are. I just didn’t think it would be this lame.
True
WHAT ABOUT DANCING ON THE TOMB OF THE UNKNOWN SOLDIER YOU DENSE FUCKS
Yeah at this rate the globos are gonna need a FF.
They gave Terry a cap.He ran the Country’s width. He loved Canada.
@North Star If you’re going to judge others’ intellect, as least word it right and use proper punctuation. You just look like a hypocritical clown.
@North Star You’re talking arguments and you didn’t even make one lol. You just called someone ignorant while showing the world you’re the clueless one. Absolute joker.
@john15008 Are you slow? He’s one of you lot crying about it.
I doubt Terry would support the anti vaxxers. The ones clogging up the hospitals are the anti vaxxers right now and in turn medical screenings to detect the early stages of Cancer are being delayed.
@Bring Back Sanity North star got real quiet after that one.
“…the only tools we have.” – Demonstrably false.
This mayor IS a tool. Who is worse him or Tory? Its definitely a close call they’re both just awful human beings.
@Fat Tony But you are so much better?
The Mayor can’t see there are tens of thousands of fellow Canadians that just arrived and he wants them to leave so they can start their economy? How long has he held this position?!
Does he not know that this protest is for the economy lol like they can’t be that stupid it’s a form of brainwashing and manipulation the reason why they do these little new skits
Millions
Come on down Jim! There’s lots of love down here. Also, local businesses are happy to have the business.
many shut down because of the protests lol. Hell, the mall closed.
@Jon V The mall is closed because of mask mandates. If it weren’t for government interfering with private businesses, I’m sure the mall owner would welcome the extra business. If you believe the hospitalization rates and that COVID can be passed around asymptomatically, then your masks and vaccines are doing you no favors anyways.
But tearing down the Sir John A. Macdonald statue is totally acceptable, right?
But convoy members pissing and dancing on the war memorial and raiding a homeless shelter for food is totally acceptable, right?
@Mimsey Demon Careful now, you’re stating facts and you know how right wingers are about those.
They had a perimeter around the memorial to assure its safety. Liar.
They said they had a video but didn’t show it.
They said they had a video but didn’t show it.
didn’t terry literally have a Canadian flag around his back when he was running?
Yes
@Veronika I think the distress message was intentional…
Your right!
@Chris Levisen agree
@The Woolly Frog true …..
“you’ve made your point, now go home”, Where is the true person in power while this is going on? He only “came into contact with the infected” and still “feel fine” with a “negative test”. Has his health situation gotten worse that he can’t show his face in front of his computer camera to convey this message?
