Our system requires parties to be registered and seats to be won by election.

There's no legal mechanism permitting formation of a coalition with non-government entities. Even if those entities occupy the capitol and demand it

They can register as a party, win some seats, and then propose forming a coalition.

Legal protests.
Just because something is illegal doesn’t make it wrong and just because something is legal doesn’t make it right.

The poster to whom I responded asked what kind of protests are allowed in Canada.

I answered his question. Legal protests are allowed in Canada, as always.

In this context, "allowed" and "legal" are synonymous terms.

WTF?? They had to move literally 4-5 blocks, out of the downtown core, and they would have been left to rot. No number of warnings were enough, after a court injunction. Apparently the courts, which represent us all, are not a good enough authority?



Sure.

Yeah thanks for the insight. Can you tell me what type of driving is allowed in Canada? I’m not sure between illegally driving without a license or legally driving with one. Thanks in advance.

Gotta love his cuck mentality. No wonder Canada had some of the harshest restrictions, because of people like him.

****ggots like you supported the lockdowns, and were the type to dial 911 on people have non-family members over their residence.

You were pathetic before the Rona, you were pathetic during all of this, and you'll be pathetic when this is all over.

The irony of this. The government will surly give you your freedoms back if you submit long enough. Though I get the feeling you like daddy government telling you want you can and can't do so you don't have to make those hard decisions yourself.

Not on sidewalks

You're of course free to do so, but will likely be charged.

I think you forgot you're not in Ill. here. We didn't have any looters.

Yeah, they left the rail blockades up longer than society wanted ,Jan-Feb-Mar 2020. Here was the Con leader, and the consequences. This generated a lot of response.

"February 18 – Opposition leader Andrew Scheer condemns the federal government's response, calling it "the weakest response to a national crisis in Canadian history. Will our country be one of the rule of the law, or will our country be one of the rule of the mob?". Prime Minister Justin Trudeau holds a private meeting with the other opposition parties' leaders, barring Scheer after his comments."

After multiple court injunctions on multiple levels, cops cleared blockades and many arrests were made, ultimately.

I prefer rule of law, personally.

You can tell wincel is running out of arguments on this but he can never stop posting once the autism sets in.

You condemned the protestors for doing what the gov has done for years. This is your response to having a light shined on your hypocrisy. Pathetic.

It looks like a group of people who didn't like the outcome of Trudeau's pointless and wasteful vanity election lost patience with the system and went vigilante.

Understandable. But not without consequence.

Thus, there could not ever be a 'negotiation', as there was a built in excuse for saying no common ground. Removing it from the main convoy website was WAYYYY too late in the game. Allowing Pat King to continue to speak/be heard on behalf of the convoy was also extremely potato. Not to mention that anyone who can't see that the Libs were never going to bend on mandates need to up their meds dosage.

Happy to further clarify if any questions.

Lol coalitions can work with registered gov officials. Private coalitions can form and talk with the government. Hard concept to grasp I know.

Trudeau has little support. But we're not going to get him out of office by people taking the capitol hostage.

I read the MOU and the conference you linked me. There's absolutely nothing non-starter about forming a private coalition and working with the gov to come to an agreement.
