  1. Translation: PM is announcing borrowing more money on behalf of several generations of Canadians. Why is this “help” thing going only one way? At the end banks will be collecting while we and our children will be slaving.

      Petition to the Prime Minister
      Whereas:
      The Prime Minister’s firearms confiscation regime, undemocratically imposed without debate during a pandemic while Parliament is suspended, is an assault on Canadian democracy;
      Canada already has stringent regulations and comprehensive legislation related to firearms ownership;
      Canada has millions of responsible, law-abiding firearms owners;
      Data shows that the confiscation regime would not stop firearms violence in Canada;
      The majority of firearms used in violent crimes are obtained illegally and/or are smuggled into Canada;
      Legal firearms owners are strong advocates for measures that will actually prevent firearms violence;
      Legal firearms owners in Canada are vetted on a daily basis through the CPIC system;
      The Prime Minister is using the emotion of the tragedy in Nova Scotia to impose this confiscation regime even though all of the firearms the murderer used were illegally obtained;
      The list of firearms to be confiscated is arbitrary and not based on functionality;
      “Assault rifles”, or fully automatic firearms, have been banned in Canada since 1977;
      Criminals who have illegally obtained firearms will not be impacted by this confiscation regime; and
      The federal government is abandoning evidenced-based decision making as it relates to preventing firearm violence.
      We, the undersigned, citizens of Canada, call upon the Prime Minister to immediately scrap his government’s May 1, 2020, Order in Council decision related to confiscating legally owned firearms and instead pass legislation that will target criminals, stop the smuggling of firearms into Canada, go after those who illegally acquire firearms, and apologize to legal firearms owners in Canada.

  4. -Why did Trudeau say it was racist to stop flights from China?
    -Why did the WHO say the virus was harmless?
    -Why are the temporary emergency hospitals still empty?
    -Where are the reports of deaths from spring break in Florida on their crowded beaches?
    -If masks & gloves stop the spread while in line at the store, how is sitting at home alone any better?
    -Could we have not shut down & just worn gloves & masks?

  5. Its embarrassing the way all major news opens for Trudeau’s porch briefings like this is somehow acceptable.   It is NOT!  338 elected members. OPEN PARLIAMENT!
