Yup. And I am being intimidated into keeping quiet about it, actually threatened with 5-15 years in prison for spreading misinformation about coronavirus if I do.
I thought Canada was a free country.
Anyway, I think they are doing this because they know they fucked up, and because of who I am...
I know. You should see the power trip Canadian cops are on when enforcing the COVID lockdown. I had a gun pulled on me by one. That is why I contacted BLM.
And I only contacted BLM to ask them if they knew who I could contact for advice, so I was surprised when they responded "Us! We will help...
I more wholly support it now (I always wholly supported it but now I appreciate the movement). They are going to help me out in seeking justice for my incident with the police.
I'm not black. I'm actually white.
Here’s the thing:
I was following all the lockdown rules, not questioning them, just accepting them as something that really sucks, but a necessary evil.
I am by no means one of those idiots you see at anti-lockdown protests. And you still won’t see me at one.
So yeah, I was never one of...
Tonight I had a gun pulled on me by a security guard, not a cop but hired muscle for the cops, who was on a power trip because he’s tasked to enforce COVID lockdowns. I’ve been crying ever since.
So obviously, I’ve changed my mind on lockdowns.
Makes sense, since the category of "white" is always changing, I think Latinos will be the next group admitted to the "white" club. I make fun of some of my Latino friends about this, that they will be old grandparents someday sitting in their old rocking chair bitter about the racism he...
The Canadian government is considering this.
Canada has public health care, so it’s not that people would be denied care, it’s just that if you show up at an anti-mask/anti-lockdown protest, and if hospitals get overwhelmed, you will be considered to have voluntary forfeited your access to...
I’m assuming they didn’t display it because it’s common knowledge pretty much that Acadians are a mix of French and Mi’kmaq.
Although that’s not always in genetics since not all French people married Mi’kmaq people, obviously... for example if your ancestors lived in a place that was previously...
I have no idea where the Coptic Egyptian came from but I remember a relative talking about Egyptian ancestry but I just thought he was crazy.
But then, I had to get treatment for a skin condition and the doctor who treated me was Egyptian and asked me where my ancestors came from she assumed I...
Canada is back in lockdown as of today.
For American members, I implore you, don’t do the Thanksgiving thing. Canadians celebrate Thanksgiving a month before Americans do, and most Canadian families observed it because there were very few cases back then, but since then, cases have went through...
Oh yeah I forgot about how the US fucked over the Kurds (well not just the Kurds, but the Canadian forces who have been fighting beside them). Pretty shameful. Those Kurdish fighters have been valuable allies.
I wouldn’t put it past him to resign and then have Mike Pence pardon him.
Either way, I hope Biden is able to put the clamps on crazy leaders like the guy in Turkey, and also I hope he can help get those Canadians released from prison in China... China and Saudi Arabia have been bullying Canada...
