Feels like a lot of culture creep. Some of these wing nuts talk about the first amendment as if we have that here. Some of them also seem to think that our Prime Minister has presidential powers. I think the “fuck Trudeau” flags are a rip off of the “fuck Biden” flags too.
Yeah, when the convoy crew ended up in court, they kept talking about their 'amendment rights', and the judges had to ask what they were talking about. These people are so dense that black holes are jealous. It's more proof that they're being purposely misled and manipulated in order to sow anger, disharmony, and fight against ourselves instead of the real sources of our problems.
They're just really concerned about the formation of Manitoba from the Northwest Territories.
Nah. The YouTube and Facebook channels are probably more US-centric, which is where they get the "amendment" crap, but there are absolutely groups like this - anti-intellectual, often fairly "religious" - that have been around in Canada for a long time. More they're just more organized and funded instead of being loose collection of weirdos that most people could happily ignore. Trumpism in the US may have emboldened village idiots around the world, but it didn't really make them.
Trudeau has been around longer than Biden has been president, as have the bumper stickers. Those were here even before he became PM.
