However, in his speech at the convoy’s base camp, Berry advocated “the people” arresting police officers and politicians, as well as replacing Canada’s democratically-elected government.
Hey, look terrorists with plans for a coup.

Like… Sovereign Citizen meets Qanon, but also domestic terrorism?

Yes, those are all apt descriptions and really 2 of those are the same thing to a certain extent and the third is a pipeline.

I can’t wait to hear about all the child porn this guy has on his laptop.

In case anyone else was curious about the unexplained initialism near the end of the article, WWG1-WGA is “Where we go one, we go all,” which apparently is a call of solidarity for QAnon followers to say they will support each other by following each other.
It’s disconcerting how many people are willing to believe the most outlandish claims without any hard evidence of anything. None of the ideas presented here passes “the sniff test.”
Who can possibly believe that elected officials are secretly ruining massive pedophelia rings, with teachers showing porn in classes and forcing kids to have gender reassignment surgery… It’s insane.

WWG1-WGA is a big part of the reason that the movement is so successful. People crave being part of something bigger, fighting some righteous battle in the name of good. Qanon exploits those desires and masquerades as just what they’re seeking. Unfortunately it’s not a righteous battle they’re engaging in, it’s an ignorant and destructive fairytale meant to spread fascism and benefit the far-right.

These people are far right bigots using the guise of “save the children” to push their ideology. I hope nobody gets suckered by their lies. I really don’t want to see the bigotry that has taken hold in America, take roots here too.

Well, if it isn’t American inspired domestic terrorism.

AmericanKremlin/CCPFreedom of speech and anonymous social media have given foreign governments a powerful voice in places like the US and Canada.

Our Queen tried to do the same thing so this isn’t surprising

Her Majesty, Queen
Roman DildoRomana Didulo I, Queen of Canada? I’m getting a little worried that she and her courtiers might go Waco, but as long as they stay on the wacky side of crazy instead of the Waco side of crazy, I always get a kick out of her escapades.I’m starting to get a little worried, but so far it’s been entertaining.

Oh, I thought this was somehow related to the NGO Save The Children. It’s not, those folks are awesome
