You’ve always been able to make a “citizens” arrest. That’s not new.
@Hotspur37 Can we make a citizen’s arrest for the police that stole the gas and wood?
@Iam Cooper lol, there’s a diff between “stole” and seized there Coop!! I’ve seen the letter put out by the protest organizers that they wanted everyone to send to “the government”…(various places)….given the language used in that I’m gonna guess that these protesters are not very bright! That looked like it had been written by someone with the abilities of say….a certain Donny Trump. lol…you better get some better lawyers before you start to arrest fellow citizens, LMAOOOO
@chris d It was court ordered that they could not seize the fuel but they still are
“Amanda Bradley
You’ve always been able to make a “citizens” arrest. That’s not new. ”
But not make your own laws.
@D R Lindberg not sure what you mean but my point was they don’t need to any “swearing in” they already have a certain amount they can do as a citizen.
BREAKING: GiveSendGo plans to ignore Ontario’s attempted interference and pay the truckers anyway
@fnordly
They can also send the donation to anther none profit and they can send it.
The government only prevent sendgo, not all other institutions.
This is a simple work around.
@roof pizza this protest must really bother you. Your hero Justin looks his absolute most incompetent. Do you think he goes back to his safe house and puts on Blackface then cries himself to sleep every night?
The Canadian government and its courts has no jurisdiction over GiveSendGo
Bruh anything to help blackface eh?? Wow go order sum jt burgers and cry yourself to sleep… we aren’t leaving bruh. Not going anywhere.. soon nurses n bikers n Construction workers… and oh hey!! The rest of the u.s.a. truckers!!! Not leaving.. till justin resigns.. or mandates go.. period.. we have all summer
@roof pizza givesendgo clearly
Stay calm, stay peaceful, show to the world how Canadians behaved.
@Ken K That’s just childish. Grow up, this is real.
@B F Not,….don’t forget to have the government take your sovereignty over your body,…force you to take a drug, to keep your job, to participate in society,..why would anyone agree with this?
@B F Who got a death threat?
@gary skidmore Checked and am proud to say there is NO reports
@bluewater lands why not just free the country and they will go home and back to delivering all your goods
“Not recognizing the authority of the state…” Well, yes. That’s the whole point of civil disobedience.
@Colin Hubble You’ll soon see.
@Mike B We have no idea what their intentions are and this video doesn’t really explain much of anything. If you’re deeply worried then you might be concerned about mall security guards too.
@Colin Hubble Gee, let me think……
History …
Look up what happened in Romania not so long ago … (The late 80’s I believe it was.)
History really isn’t taught in school any longer ….. the education system is a disaster.
The only thing we can hope for is that everything remains peaceful. Hopefully the government doesn’t incite violence due to their own hubris / arrogance .
@Hal Hirst Agreed. Hopefully NOBODY gets stupid. Whether you’re for the protest or against it, NOBODY wants this to go in that direction.
Enough is Enough.
I agree, the truckers should go home
@Stoodmuffin Personal nope, truckers are holding the line….didn’t get the memo?
@Stoodmuffin Personal Why should they go home?,..still waiting for Trudeau to meet them,..what’s the holdup?
“No more Gov., over-reach….
Huh? I didn’t hear Candice Bergen say it’s time for the protesters to quit and come to the bargaining table. She knows that the leaders have offered that from the start. Am I wrong?
She was addressing the pm.
She did come out.goigke or youtube Candace Bergen wants truckers to go home
bargaining table? there should be no bargaining with these morons. They didnt’ come to town to bargain or negotiate, they made that abundantly clear from the get-go lol
Yes you are wrong. The leaders of the protest have never offered or asked to negotiate. Their position from the beginning has been “Lift all mandates or we shut you down. Non-negotiable.”
Stay calm, stay peaceful, show to the world how Canadians behaved.
They are not recognizing the authority of the state to enforce illegal , criminal orders. Citzens’ arrests.
Bot
WHEN THE POLICE AND GOV. NOT FOLLOW THE LAWS WHY SHOULD THE PEACEFUL CITIZENS! STAY STRONG!
Let’s go Canada
I don’t understand how long is Trudeau going to drag this covid stuff on ? Another two years?
Leela, have you really not been following along over the past couple years? Is your question genuine? I’m happy to explain it to you if it is.
No Forever !
2:03 that is the mentality, because if they took your rights for 2 years, why would you bother ? after all this whole situation transformed the world in a big prison.
What rights have been taken from you?
@Karl Dubhe the right to choose what goes into your body without punitive measures being taken against you…ie the right to peruse a living to feed your kids?
GOSH THIS MAKES ME PROUD!!!
Those veterans fought to keep exactly this from happening and again they fight, the government and police should be ashamed. Any of them who had family that serve are a disgrace to them
Stay calm, stay peaceful, show to the world how Canadians behaved.
Stay calm, stay peaceful, show to the world how Canadians behaved.
We need New governments this is a step forward
that’s what elections are for
“sovereign citizen” “freemen” cosplaying as legit law enforcement, swearing in new members of Canadian Common Corps of Peace Officers/C3PO, holding international commerce, economy hostage
Extremely well put! Yes, that in a nut shell, is an accurate description of the current situation.
Convoy hold the line. Stay calm, peaceful and non-confrontational. Evil will not win.
