    Where were the cops? Oh yeah, no one thought to call them from the school. The one stupid turkey cop left. I think that was part of the plan.  Not like he'd have done anything, anyway.

    Who in their ******* right mind targets high school & elementary students?? I swear to God these idiots need to be dealt with. This enraged Karen who spat on that student needs to be charged with assault. And her employer needs to see what kind of ugly person they have in their employ. Some serious jail time & a heavy fine would do her good. You know she'd be wailing in the court room crying for mercy saying she was sorry.

    A real shock to the ol' white privilege there. "I didn't think that there would be consequences to my actions"

    Protesters showed up at Southern Okanagan Secondary school
    This is embarrassingly ugly, they're actually arguing with school kids.

    Part of the bizarreness about the whole Coutts/Emerson situations is that if the 16 armed and armoured felons were in any other circumstances other than representing the nutbar fringe of the right-wing base of the two governments, not only would the premiers be screaming for federal government help, they would be also demanding that the police go in with guns blazing. The current responses are cowardly and hypocritical. I have been in protests at the Lege in the 70's against Candian involvement in Viet Nam and other issues, and there were lots of police around but they were given no reason to come at us, apart from some (in retrospect) fairly mild insults at them.  
    The lack of condemnation from our premier made the protesters feel like they were and are being given tacit support.  And with good reason.

    I think you are right in that there will be alot of regular Conservative voters that will be angry over this.  Will they move their vote ? Maybe. I have an extremely flexible vote that depends on the Leader and the issues of the time.  I have decided I can't vote Conservative Federally or Provincial again until they :
    1- find proper leadership,
    2- embrace the issues of the time, not the issues of the previous generation.
    3-  can reflect the will of the general population ,
    4- can convince me that they aren't willing to sell their soul ( and mine lol ) to just get elected.

    Since many provinces have now announced the removal of restrictions in short order and the blockades and protests continue,  it's obvious that there were other reasons why they are there.  I think it's a desire of of many of them to be involved in a Trump/ Maga type movement. That includes all the ugliness and hate that is deeply imbeded in that movement. I find it shameful and embarrassing to have the world watching this. I hope that there are many people moving away from supporting any  political party that is not actively fighting and resisting that movement.

    I tend to agree. Personally, I protest voted in the last federal election because I just didn't want any of them but your concerns are probably in the back of the vast majority of CPC potential voters right now. I know many people who would swing back to the CPC if these issues were to sort themselves out favorably. Right now it's hold your nose and vote and many people are hoping the CPC becomes a viable alternative.

    I love that the bombers are locking up the "secondary core" of players to two year deals... by "secondary" I mean, behind the primary core, not defensive back field... Nichols, BA, Augustine, Brady, Gray, Woli (probably a few I'm missing)
