Man I don’t give a fukk about that, telling me who I can and cannot respond to is as fukked as telling me what to put in my body. They can skip over my posts no problem.

You don’t think that is an excessive amount to be having available?
I don't think that is the amount available since it's based on optional purchases from 7 different manufacturers. I also don't think it suggests an undisclosed mandate, since the vast majority of Canadians chose to be vaccinated prior to any mandates being in place.

They probably get paid to troll conservative forums and disrupt meaningful discourse. Trolls like JLC were very common in 4chan during election time and disrupted any conversation regarding election fraud and they all disappeared after a while .

They probably have a wide network of shills. A big number on Twitter and reddit and a small number for other forums like bb.com, sherdog etc
Who is "they". Never in my life have I voted liberal.

Oh you mean the thread I made to side step the trolls you are feeding? You will understand once you have played with them enough that they are just that, trolls.

I don’t know man, many of not most of the people I know who have gotten the vax have said they did it because they had no choice. Using the percentage of people who have gotten vaxxed as a number to represent the number of people who would have chosen to get the vax is disingenuous. They are not the same.

Yeah I get it, but looking to argue about whether or not he is a dipsh*t has nothing to do with this thread either.

This thread is not my first time responding to him…if something is pertinent or worthy of discussion, I will keep going, if not I will ignore it.

Much like he is doing to the incessant reposting of engj’s post.

That's why I showed the time series of vaccination rate. The rate hit majority well before any mandates were in place. I was the last person I know to be vaccinated, everyone else was many months before me and many, many months before any mandates were in place.

Since I have small kids in school (ie higher risk of getting it through asymptomatic means) and a heart condition, science said that risks of falling severely ill from COVID were enhanced with the booster, so likely yes.

You made the other thread because you kept getting ethered and just name calling instead of actually providing any valuable discussion.

There's a lot of corruption in the mayor's office here if you know local politics. Basically one sets of councilors versus the others and developers have our mayor in their back pocket so he does everything to appease them. He's already said he's stepping down this fall but now it looks like he's trying to replace the people on the PSB - some of who resigned in disgust - with his own people. It's actually a wild city council meeting if you can believe it. Lots of accusations of corruption.

So you’ve come here to put up endless posts that are irrelevant to the thread….to complain about a guy endlessly posting irrelevant things?

Look, I get that he is annoying, but if he is in here wasting time with me, your other thread should be post after post of pertinent information…stop wasting your own time in here, or stay remotely on topic.

I don’t feel like what we are going back and forth on here is irrelevant, I don’t want to see annoying sh*t from him, or you.

Fair enough.

What is your honest opinion…if people felt no external pressure and the CHOICE to get vaxxed was purely for its protection and nothing to do with work or travel or restaurants etc…do you think the numbers would be even close to what they have been.

^all bullchit.

You don't want to see annoying chit from him but you keep replying.

I'm "spamming" a single post he has yet to reply to. He could just reply to it. Also the post I am "putting up endlessly" is arguably relevant.

No way, not even close. Which is part of the reason why they instituted mandates to get more people to take the vax. Might suck and seem tyrannical, but if it means 90% of people end up getting the shot and that means COVID goes away faster, then it's a crappy decision but I can see why they made it. And that was worldwide, not just here in Canada. IMO we would have hit herd immunity eventually, but I do think the vaccine shortened the timeline towards an endemic virus by probably about a year.

How do you still believe this? COVID is never going away. Doesn't matter if 100% of people are vaccinated.

Straight up wrong, the only path to this becoming endemic was the vaccine we failed to make, which took the form of Omicron. The waning efficacy of the vaccines would have enabled this to go on for years to come.

Sorry, you're right - rephrasing. It becomes endemic faster due to a combination of vaccines and herd immunity. Like the regular flu, eventually, COVID will be another thing to look out for during flu season but with the drugs developed and the fact they can isolate variants sometimes even shots may not be necessary. My opinion of course, based on what I've read.

But we can discuss vaccines, etc all day long and go in a circle. This thread is about truckers.

I don't get the allure of something becoming endemic. Why do people think a virus becoming endemic is a good thing?

But you are a parent, the Rona at its worst posed little to no threat to your kids…the long term effects of jabbing developing kids are unknown. Surely as a parent you can understand why people are fighting against mandates so much? If I was a single guy, I would have said fukk it and gotten jabbed probably just so I could go to games, hit the bars and smash broads. But, my only real responsibility in life now is to protect my child and let her grow safe and happy. Injecting her with something that will have unknown effects is the opposite of that.

Many people did not draw a line until youth were eligible for vax. Many more will kill rather than let the govt determine mystery substances must go into their toddlers.

Standing on a street corner with a picture of their kids saying “don’t hurt my baby” won’t get anyones attention. Shutting down the capital will.

By your own acknowledgment, many people were probably uncomfortable getting vaxxed, but did so purely because there was “no choice”. Compound that with trying to force people to allow this to be done to their kids, you get horns and bouncy castles. While the truckers started it, many people joined in and contributed $$$ because it sparked the thought of fighting for a choice.

It's inevitable. The regular flu is endemic. So is the common cold. All it means is "regularly found among particular people or in a certain area". As soon as this new virus was created it will become part of the human fabric.

I think it's important to consider what the term means.

While "endemic" does mean that the virus can go up and down with seasons and the like, "endemic" doesn't mean the virus isn't going to have a significant impact.

For instance, malaria is considered "endemic" in some parts of the world, which results in hundreds of thousands of deaths each year.

By your own acknowledgment, many people were probably uncomfortable getting vaxxed, but did so purely because there was “no choice”. Compound that with trying to force people to allow this to be done to their kids, you get horns and bouncy castles. While the truckers started it, many people joined in and contributed $$$ because it sparked the thought of fighting for a choice.
Bolded is debatable and up to the individual. I have a client who's an actual virologist and super research oriented with two small kids. I asked him very early about the development, testing, etc and he said it was rock solid - enough for him to want to give the vax to his own children. I wasn't in any rush and waited a couple of months to see if anything acute was going to happen to kids before I made my decision for my own.

My issue with the truckers is that the whole thing has NEVER been about mandates, as much as they will tout that it was. It's been about radical overthrowing of the government veiled with a false narrative. And, I'm all for people's right to protest but as much as you see bouncy castles, the fact that they think it's okay to cause constant noise, vandalize businesses and harass people along with effectively shutting down a bunch of businesses they claim to want to protect is just hypocritical (again, IMO).

I can also see the writing on the wall and a lot of these people who bought into "freedom fighting" are going to end up jobless and drained of money because of being duped and left hanging out to dry.

While "endemic" does mean that the virus can go up and down with seasons and the like, "endemic" doesn't mean the virus isn't going to have a significant impact.

For instance, malaria is considered "endemic" in some parts of the world, which results in hundreds of thousands of deaths each year.
Which is why there is a vaccine against malaria when you go to certain places.
