TruckerConvoy2022 announced yesterday that they have been going truck-to-truck, person-to-person, to get all demonstrators set up with a Crypto-wallet and what they will need to access it and use it and have an endowment from the monies raised.
Oh, please. I was talking about the Christian cross clearly visible on it, not the symmetric white cross. Nobody in their right mind would see that flag as anything other than a Christian flag.
No, there is nothing religious about this movement.
I repeat: You're gonna school me on Quebec society and politics?
This is getting out of hand. If the Canadian government doesn't get this under control fast, they are going to end up with a situation like happened in Washington last year.
The problem is that liberals are scared to hell of right wing extremists like this, so they try to ignore them and hope they go away. But they don't.
^ This is an astute take.
I have always regarded Canada basically the way Margaret Atwood portrays the country in The Handmaid's Tale, or to provide a real-world example, the way American objectors to the Vietnam War viewed Canada - a potential place of refuge, a place an American could hopefully flee to if something really horrific happened in the U.S.
This "trucker" siege has shattered that perception of Canada. This internet-fueled far-right scourge is infecting nations throughout the world and apparently even a country as amazing as Canada is not immune to this pathetic fad.
My sincere advice as someone who has watched first-hand as this element has destroyed America - crush this. It is terrorism and these people will only continue to escalate until they are met with serious consequences.

I'm schooling you on religious symbols. The only thing I said about Quebec society and politics is that if they are waving flags with Christian symbols on it, then they are clearly motivated by religion. I don't know anybody who would wave a flag with religious symbols on it, that has no political significance, if they were not motivated by religion. And that flag has no political significance. It is a Christian flag and that is the way it has always been used, according to online sources, which I have posted.

And I am telling you that this is entirely based on ethno-cultural history and there is no Christian-based right wing French Canadian movement that can bring out even a tenth of this type of crowd in the streets.
Stop trying to impose American socio-political norms on other countries. Things are different here. There is a border for a reason.
