I believe our much loved northern friends have a few things going for them. Their expansive territory and the generally congenial nature of those (currently) tasked with enforcing their ridiculously over-reaching “mandates.”
Hear me out.
Gun wise: they have been neutered but not “de-fanged.” Canadians have guns. More rural territorial Canadians have more guns.
The more rural Northern Canadians probably have the kind of guns their more southern-border hugging neighbors lack.
Trudeau is just one ass-hole who lives down south.
Most “true Canadians” haven’t been goaded into action yet, in EXACTLY, the same ways the 70% of Freedom Loving Americans haven’t been activated yet.
To Date: the threats to both of our countries have been through “declared mandate” (not law). They have been proclamations made by elected leaders (not law) and threats of “future repercussions” for lack of compliance.
The right step to take now for Northern Frens (and local frens) is exactly what o.p. is saying.
Levy a fine. Don’t pay.
So...where is the moral line in the sand?
Come to my home and remove me from it,
If any physical person claiming “State Authority” attempts to remove me or
mine from my home on the basis of noncompliance for an illegal mandate?
Then. That is the moment. And they should send bachelors.
Also. I’ve spent a lot of time in Canada. I’ve spent a lot of time with Canadian pilots in my profession.
I’ve spent a great deal of time in the Northern Territories.
Most Americans have no idea what a rural
Canada is like. You literally can’t conceive it.
If you think driving through Iowa or Nebraska and their “hard winters” experience can inform you...you are woefully mis-informed.
Canada is populated by HARD MEN. Way harder than your perception of what hard-men might be like.
You’ve watched YouTube videos of lumberjacks so you think you have a “feel” for their life?
No you do not.
The REAL MEN up there don’t document it. They just go to work.
99% of the hardest people you know couldn’t make a year in their shoes. And that is their life.
It’s a good and hard life.
Trudeau truly doesn’t know, and had no possible frame of reference to understand, what kind of people he his dealing with, and what they are capable of. When (and if) he tickles their activation circuitry? He will have no frame of reference with which to respond.
