I do not think now is the time to flee Canada. Canada is far from lost, but if all those who value freedom do flee, it will be lost for sure. Now is the time to fight and provide for each other.

Trudeau is doing damage control. Evidently, his puppet masters told him to simmer down.

He's going to revoke the emergency powers declaration. Maybe he figured out he was going too hard too fast.

Looks that way unless there’s something I’m missing. The precedent is now set though. I think that was the purpose.

exactly

first of all, the protests were crushed without the act

the act was not passed until after the police assault on our rights

passing the act in the wake however, has set the precedent of martial law in response to peaceful assembly

they don't need the act to continue to hunt down and persecute people, that is ongoing

and they have achieved their aim, which was to terrorize people into submission

not to say they weren't feeling the heat

the widespread condemnation of course

but I personally called 15 Senators to beg them to vote the act down

and I get the impression that all the staff I spoke to were sympathetic

Trudeau didn't want to risk being shot down by the Senate

so he's withdrawing like a coiled snake to avoid that going on the public record

with the Emergencies Act lifted

I can pull back from the brink

but not to DEFCON 5

Just from DECFON 2

to holding at DEFCON 3

the Liberals are still running amok without using that act, they've got lots of other options to persecute people
