I hate how the Karen Convoy of Needle Weenies has robbed us of this joke, as well as everything else. DAMN YOU HILLBILLY GARAGE-QUEEN DODGE-DRIVING COWARDS.
i love how canada will literally do a portland over hockey. But for every other forseeable happenstance, it's "uhm, yeah i think i might disagree actually"
you do you canada, don't let anybody tell you otherwise.
The government also says you can't impede the flow of traffic, but that didn't stop them from parking trucks all around Ottawa in protest.
Clearly some laws are enforced more than others.
What I want to know is, did anyone get in trouble for not requiring masks? Because if they didn't, then it's really on the businesses because they chose to enforce that mandate on everyone.
There's also a law that says you can't pay for something with more than 25 loonies, but I'd bet if you pay for a meal with $30 in loonies, nobody will give a shit. We have some stupid laws, most of those stupid laws aren't enforced because nobody gives a shit. I also know that some cities have banned smoking in public parks. Imagine getting a citation for having a smoke at the park down the street? Idiotic.
Enforcement is where the rubber hits the road. Just because the boneheads in Ottawa say you should do a thing (or not do a thing) is meaningless if nobody will enforce what they say should be a law or whatever.
Maybe I missed it, but I don't recall any establishment getting fined or shut down for not requiring masks. I know the list of places openly opposing the mandate was small, but at the same time, fines for non-compliance also didn't make any news feeds that I saw.
I saw an excellent video exploring the idea of Relegation and (a replacement for) the NHL. It was excellent and I hope, by commenting this, it will encourage someone who still has the link to-hand to post that link here.
I swear to God Vancouver had the absolute most shit luck this playoffs. They were my west team 100%, but the hockey gods said nay. Fortunately, Canadians respect the hockey gods and will not riot.
Yeah, that wasn't the hockey gods. Gotta riot. Both your goalies going down, Boeser having fucking blood clots are just hockey gods fucking with you, and it's not a rip table offense unfortunately.
Clearly the world hasnt met a sour canucks fan whom will beat an old man just for standing in the wrong spot on the train. Canadians have a “0-100 and nothing between” policy about anger.
Also, if someone attacks someone on a train I do hope someone else will attack him back. Bonus if it's your grandma who immigrated from Ukraine as a child and lets fly with a handbag on video.
The post was a meme in the meme community. OP is saying "huurrr Canadians so polite". That's not a new trope.
I'm pretty sure the riots in Ottawa that needed to be broken up by the military, is still pretty fresh in everyone's mind, since it happened a few years ago during COVID. And yes, there's controversy about how much of a "riot" it actually was, and whether the force used was excessive or an over reach; but none of that is the point.
Canadians being "nice" an internet myth I have unfortunately found. They are just americans in most macro sense. Their history is as much, if not more, bloody.
