Huh five times August seems kinda looney tunes
The world is kinda looney tunes.
I mean, the Government of Canada of all things decided to freeze people's bank accounts for participating in a peaceful protest that asked for a policy in to be implemented in March that the government ultimately implemented in October.
They were so threatened by this protest that I need to remind you were asking for a policy that was implemented that year anyway that they ended up invoking the descendant of the war measures act for only the second time ever.
The first time the descendant of the war measures act was invoked, it was because the FLQ terrorist group was committing acts of violence including kidnapping a provincial minister of labour and a diplomat to Britain. The second time it was invoked, it was because of a peaceful protest with bouncy castles and feeding the homeless.

Was mainly talking about the "vaccine injury awareness month" stuff on top of all the other COVID stuff. Seems a little off his rocker to keep non stop bitching about COVID mandates after they expired. Probably just doing it for easy money though.
That's fair, tbh.
I won't forget what happened, but life does go on.
