Of course the wall has the added benefit that we can load the maple MAGA crowd onto busses, take them to the wall, and hurl them over to MAGAland.

How absurdly reductive.

It's not about, "word use", it's about protecting the most vulnerable of our children.

Stop trolling, we see right through your reductive nonsense.

You know what matters a lot more than balancing budgets? Defining public transit as a true public service and making sure the people who depend on it the most, those who have few other options to get to where they need to be, have transit available to them when they need it at a cost they can afford.

This is the problem. Public transit is seen as a service used by poor people. In Europe public transit is used by everyone because it is the best, fastest option to get to where you are going. When I travel to London I take the train from the airport to Victoria station them walk to my hotel. Everywhere else I go is by tube or by train. I have never rented a car and only hired a van when I had a group of people and a bunch of luggage to move a long distance.

If public transit worked (Ottawa LRT anyone?) and we stopped making traveling by car convenient, people would use public transit.

When the protagandist, shills, trolls, and apologists come and say that never happened you'll need this.

Not "peaceful".

There was nothing "peaceful" about the constant honking, the threats and intimidation, the insults and slurs. There was nothing peaceful about the harassment of small business that resulted in hundreds shutting down for three weeks putting thousands of hourly workers, many working paycheque to paycheque, with families to support out of work.

Everyone knows that when a child screams at the top of its lungs and refuses to move until it gets its way that it's throwing a temper tantrum. That's what the "protest" in Ottawa was. A bunch of full grown children throwing down, honking their horns and refusing to move until they got their way. They were tantrumists and they got spanked. Tammy Lich is going to get spanked harder than most.

I think that if you step out of your echo bunker and look around that the "many Canadians" you believe support her are actually a small, delusional minority. The rest of us are done with this fucking tantrumist false patriot bullshit.

As it should be.

The problem is that every single thing a Conservative does is designed to look like is helping the common man when its actually helping the wealthy and corporations. Dig for us going to make land available for 50,000 units of urban sprawl? Million dollar houses that only the upper middle class can afford and 8 billion dollars of benefit to his wealthy friends. They weave a good story that the least of us believe while the entire time funneling billions and billions of dollars of the tax money paid by the least of us to the wealthiest of us and corporations. What we need is good management and good social programs. We're not going to get that combination from either party so I would rather have social programs while they try to figure it out.

This is classic right wing "humor". They get butt hurt because we make fun of them so they think that humor just means hurting the other guys. They try, and fail, and we laugh at them which makes them even more butt hurt.

I was in Spain at the beginning of the pandemic. The bodies they were stacking in the back of army trucks because their mortuary system had collapsed were not fine.

If you make being petulant your entire identity...

Willing to be cut open, have an organ removed, and replaced with an organ from a dead person but not willing to have a safe and effective vaccine because it became part of her political identity. I suspect that it was ego that prevented her from accepting the vaccine once she had made up her mind.

It became a matter of political identity. Rejecting Covid, the science, the vaccine, and the reasonable public health measures became more important to them that life itself.
