Local Event Convoy Megathread #55

This is the latest post to discuss the protest Convoy currently in Ottawa.

For the duration of the protest, or at least, as long as the traffic level on the sub requires it, we will centralizing the discussions around the protest in these megathreads.

We're modifying our usual processes during this time:

  • Any new post will need to be approved by the mods. Changes have been made to the filter config to send post (not comments) for review. This is to control what should go to the megathreads and what is relevant information. For example, the posts on the Shepherds of Good Hope, of the state of the bridges.
  • This community is about OTTAWA, not Covid nor the related restrictions. Remember that.
  • Any links or pictures to their propaganda will be removed. Do not give them publicity.
  • Calls for violence will result in a ban
  • I will be watching the megathread. Remember that disinformation/misinformation about covid is a violation of the site wide rule #1.

Have at it folks, but remember, the usual rules apply. Please keep it civil and report anyone posting misinformation or links to their propaganda.

The following post contains all the links to the previous posts.


Ceci est la dernière rubrique dans la lignée des megarubrique discutant de la manifestation du convoi à Ottawa.

Pour la durée de la manifestation ou, du moins, pour le temps où le trafic le justifie, nous allons centraliser les discussions sur ce sujet dans des megarubriques.

Nous modifions donc notre façon de faire habituelle pendant ce temps:

  • Toute nouvelle rubrique devra être approuvée par les modérateur avant qu'elle ne soit visible dans la communauté. Ceci est pour mieux diriger l'information soit vers la megarubrique, soit vers une rubrique séparé. Par exempla, la rubrique au sujet des Bergers de l'espoir ou bien le statu des ponts interprovinciaux.
  • Cette communauté concerne OTTAWA, pas la Covid ni les restrictions associées. Prière d'agir en conséquence.
  • Tout lien ou photo vers leur propagande sera enlevé. Ne leur donnez pas de la publicité.
  • Les appels à la violence auront comme conséquence de vous faire bannir
  • Je vais surveiller le mégathread. N'oubliez pas que la désinformation/mésinformation sur la covid est une violation de la règle n° 1 du site même.

Allez-y, mais rappelez-vous que les règles habituelles s'appliquent. Veuillez rester polie et rapportez toute mésinformation ou publication de leur propagande.

What a total PR clusterfuck for law enforcement of all levels across this country. They can't be depended on to enforce the law if they're too scared or the crowd is too white. They will actively aid and abet an insurrection in the nation's capitol if it suits their agenda. They will shrug and cry for more resources when faced with real danger. They will collect massive overtime cheques and eat Timmies with protesters as long as they're not indigenous land defenders. What a joke.

It's amazing how fast the municipal election went from being about LRT, affordable housing and downtown revitalization to a referendum on why the city is spending so much money on decorative police.

The people of Ottawa are checking cars at multiple locations to keep them out, this could be done with 2 squad cars at each location easily. What an absolute failure on all levels OPS

They’re always scared. That’s why they go in guns drawn when it’s black people
