Vaccine-mandate protesters are headed to Ontario legislature. What that means for premier Doug Ford

Ontario’s hands-on premier has taken a hands-off approach to the weeklong protest that has snarled downtown Ottawa, the second-largest city in his province.

How will that change if something similar happens in Toronto?

Demonstrators are set to converge on the legislature on Saturday in support of the Ottawa protesters. Premier Doug Ford appears to be crossing his fingers that they don’t bring anywhere near the level of disruption as experienced in the downtown of the nation’s capital.

Open borders historically dooms jobs for black Americans

In 1853, Frederick Douglass wrote of cities in the North:

Every hour sees the black man elbowed out of employment by some newly arrived emigrant, whose hunger and whose color are thought to give him a better title to the place.

With only a handful of interruptions, black workers have faced the same situation for nearly two centuries — mass immigration of foreigners whom employers prefer to black workers, pushing them to the back of the hiring line.

Malone: “Litigation” being Prepared over Vaccine Promotion, Therapeutics Suppression

Without providing specifics as to when or by whom, mRNA vaccine technology inventor Dr. Robert W. Malone, MD, in an open letter to the editor of The Daily Mail on Wednesday evening, referred to “litigation” intended to lay bare the economic and human-suffering tolls resulting from the U.S. government’s advocacy of COVID-19 vaccine products while suppressing what Malone and other physicians say is the efficacy of ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine.

Xi and Putin urge NATO to rule out expansion as Ukraine tensions rise

China’s Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin of Russia have signed a joint statement calling on the west to “abandon the ideologised approaches of the cold war”, as the two leaders showcased their warming relationship amid a tense standoff with the west before the Beijing Winter Olympics.

In the joint statement released by the Kremlin, Putin and Xi called on Nato to rule out expansion in eastern Europe, denounced the formation of security blocs in the Asia Pacific region, and criticised the Aukus trilateral security pact between the US, UK and Australia.

The two leaders met for the 38th time since 2013. The two countries also pledged to step up cooperation to thwart “colour revolutions” and external interference, and vowed to further deepen “back-to-back” strategic coordination.

He told VOA that an arrest warrant had been issued for the suspect, who reportedly lives in Germany.

Ottawa police hire spin-doctor firm that represented Jian Ghomeshi to handle Truck Convoy protest messaging

In the moments before the Ottawa police’s Friday morning briefing on the ongoing anti-vaccine mandate protest on Parliament Hill, officers — both in uniform and plain clothes — and media alike awaited the arrival of the chief and deputy chiefs.

Meanwhile, a few folks were passing around a news release on tougher police measures coming in the days ahead, including one man who was not with the police services, but with the chief’s office, CBC was told.

That man was Matthew Barnes, a senior consultant for Navigator — an elite and expensive crisis management firm.

Navigator repped Ghomeshi!

They must be expecting some real crap to go down.

Let’s talk desecration…

The video below, posted by the Ottawa Police Service, is of the much ballyhooed desecration of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier during the Truck Convoy protest in Ottawa. I’m disappointed, I heard she was dancing naked.

No one should be standing on the memorial yelling slogans that’s a given. But have you or anyone you know even heard about the desecration of the Cranbrook Cenotaph? Where was Justin’s outrage?

Adam Carolla: ‘If AOC was fat and in her 60s, would anyone listen?’

Radio personality Adam Carolla is being slammed on social media after claiming that people only like rabble-rousing New York City Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez because she’s young and attractive. The 57-year-old “Adam Carolla Show” host dropped the bombshell during a recent appearance on “Hannity.”

“Here’s a quick thought experiment: If AOC was fat and in her 60s, would anyone listen to another thing she ever said?” the “Man Show” creator told Sean Hannity in the inflammatory interview.
