Now EDMONTON has rails blocked!
Lol, west of the city there’s a rail block between hwy16 and 16a.
I guess when you don’t have to have a job to survive being a menace to society is an easy option.
I hope this serves as a wake up call to all Canadians.

Um,
Wake up to WHAT???
These people could be working, but are not.
The rest of us are working, trying to keep our personal economy and the Canadian economy going.
Best thing to do, is blockade the blockade, and keep them there. Sooner or later they will have to eat, go to the bathroom, warm up...
Best thing that the big railway companies could do is start identifying individual people in the blockade, serve them with the Amended Statement of Claim naming the individuals, and seeking damages for the losses from the illegal blockade (Which is in the millions per day).
THEN seek Summary Judgement against the individuals and haul them in to identify their assets and start seizing property.
Lets see if the ones really behind the Blockades come to their rescue with Legal Fees and Costs.
Lets see if their compatriots put their money where their mouth is to pay for the Damages. The Injunction has already been granted, so the case has been decided already.
When you take it to the individual level, you will see that the ones who have something to loose will move on to other noble causes. That is when they find out that there is no solidarity with their compatriots.
As for the ones really behind this thing, they will quickly disappear in thin air to save their own money.

Trudeaus plan to weaken the west goes into the next phase. Now the grain is blocked. No action is an action.

It’s time to stop paying federal taxes and stop ALL funding to any fn band who supports this action. They want the RCMP out of the northern B.C. community, fine, give them NOTHING!!!! No police, no medical, no education, and NO NATURAL RESOURCES. WIN WIN.

Simple. They are trespassing on railway property. See how long you get away with that ?

What a joke, Ive been to events in town here and crossed the train tracks to get to the other side and been threatened by rail police to be charged with trespassing and these clowns are making camp on them with no repercussions. Our country is broke

Why-oh-why can’t a horde of natives who do want the pipeline and the accompanying jobs go in and drop the gloves on these useless people? That would truly speak volumes and would successfully negate cries of racism or colonization. Obviously the RCMP have been neutered by their appointed higher-ups (people obviously granted authority well above their level of competency).
Oh how I wish the Conservative party had already chosen a new leader, this blockade circus is a prime candidate for a vote of no-confidence in Parliament.

The saying "give them an inch and they'll take a mile" keeps replaying in my head.
How much more of this CAN we take? How much more of this WILL we take?
I feel like, if I were to randomly come across one of the blockades. I would make the news. I know I'm not the only one who is fed up with this.
On one had, this is opening many eyes across the country at just how spoiled and entitled the gov. has made these FN people.
It's also reinforcing how useless our gov. is.
On the other, we are letting a small group erode the foundation of a great country and province while we stand by watching.
Where will this stop? How much is too much?

That would be great. Unfortunately the natives I know who are against this are all at work today...

I hope he unbiasedly arrests them all for breaking the law and follows through to see all charges stick.

He has the authority, it's time to put the laws that Kenny and his government recently passed. Impose those huge trespassing fines on everyone involved, and the protests will soon stop. Even paid protesters can't make a profit with a $10,000 fine for a first offense. And anyone paying them to protest can also be charged.

Impose fines? I can barely afford to support them now, I can’t afford to pay their fines as well!!

Garnishee their welfare or treaty cheques? Oh what a legal mechanism that would be! Besides, if they really, truly considered themselves to be a nation unto themselves, certainly they’d have no need for any money from our nation.

He has no authority. As long as twinkletoes is in office we are just plain screwed.

It will go a long way to get rid of the paid protesters, especially those from the USA.

Agree with Elk and Kurt, this will be a good test for Kenney to see if he stands behind his convictions and deals with any Alberta blockades. If he doesn't he'll be in the same limelight as the Turd. If he clears the blockades immediately it will be more pie in the Turd's face and may help to shame him into doing his job and dealing with the National issue at hand....

He does have the authority to enforce provincial legislation.

Should we have a counter protest?
Block the blockers?
Maybe the railroad cops would deputize a few of us.

It’s presently -17 in Edmonton. A water cannon ought to do the trick.
Heck, just affix two or three water tanker cars, some high-pressure, high-volume pumps and a pair of nozzles to the front of every train and we won’t even need the police to stop by. Just have the trains sweep their own paths clear. It will also extinguish those dangerous burn barrels that the protesters like to stand around to warm themselves.

Like!! High capacity fans on the protesters in these temps would send the message too....
Funny how the blockades start here once the weather is warming up....

How fast would any of us be arrested if we protested the liberals treatment of Canadas most vested citizens, firearms owners.
We are second class citizens in our country, succession is the only hope for our children.

To keep up with the protesters and show up at the right time and place, people would have to follow the various protester social media pages to know where & when to show up. Some of those pages might not be public so you’d have to pretend to speak their socialist-idiot language to be granted access, that and probably need fake social media pages to support your fake persona. Of course such pages with recent join dates would be scrutinized.
