Walt spent the Labour Day weekend in the Niagara Region of southern Ontario, on the pretty and peaceful side of the river, to see firsthand how Mr Socks' campaign for re-election is unfolding.
As noted here a week ago, native Canadians -- meaning "old stock Canadians" (read: those of European descent), not the "First Nations" who used to be called Indians and Eskimos -- are angry about a costly and unnecessary election, called in the middle of the Covid "crisis" merely to satisfy the Trudeau ego. And -- surprise, surprise! -- they're actually taking to the streets in "mostly peaceful protests"!
Yesterday, as luck would have it, Walt was in the neighbourhood when Blackie McBlackface visited a steel plant in Welland ON, in the heart of Niagara, for what was supposed to be a photo op in which Hisself would appear doing fistbumps with happy smiling peasants [workers, shurely! Ed.]
As it turned out, he (and the short lady in black -- Canada's "Diplomat of the Year" for 2018 -- you can look it up) were surrounded by more cops and security guards than workers. The rent-a-cops were in turn surrounded by angry protesters. Here's the video, from CHCH-TV in nearby Hamilton ON.
How about that, EH?! As you heard in the video, Mr Socks claims the protesters were just a bunch of anti-vaxxers. But did you see the sign? Not the one that said "Trudeau is a little shit!", but the other one which read "Fear tyranny, not the virus!" That, dear friends, is what so many Canucks are upset about -- loss of freedom!
Forced vaccination, "vaccine passports", lockdowns, and the campaign by the nanny state to control every aspect of people's lives -- that's why people are up in arms, not just in Canada and the USA, but in the UK and Europe as well.
Still, it's surprising to see the normally polite and sheeplike Canadians getting so incensed (about something other than hockey) that they'd turn up on a holiday Monday when the weather was perfect for golf or sailing or whatever they usually do up there.
After the unpleasantness in Welland, Blackie McBlackface and the Lady in Black (it was actually the Hon. Chrystia Freeland, who usually wears a red dress, or sometimes a white one that shows off her nips) were bussed to London ON, where things actually got worse!
An even bigger crowd of protesters met the bus, heckling and jeering continually as M Trudeau made yet another little show of defiance, saying he would not stop "standing up for Canadians." He might better have said "standing up to Canadians", since the latest polls show the majority of voters are going ABT.
But wait (as Vince Offer used to say), there's more! While boarding the bus to get out of Dodge, the Little Emperor was hit by gravel or some such small objects [popcorn? sheep shit? Ed.] thrown in his direction. The Masked Male Feminist looked startled as he ducked inside the vehicle. He later confirmed to reporters on the campaign plane that he was hit by gravel, but said he was OK.
What will happen today? Will M Trudeau be able to make any public appearances, anywhere, without attracting angry protesters, just as flies are attracted to... well, you know.... Walt thinks the Diplomat of the Year [You've beaten that gag to death. Ed.] may have been wearing a black dress as a signal that she knows the Campaign to Re-elect Canada's Prettiest Prime Minister is doomed. Doomed, I tell you!
Polling day (the proper name, in Canada and the UK, for the day on which people vote) is September 20th. Stay tuned. Agent 3 will make the popcorn; Poor Len Canayen will make poutine.

If you're in any doubt, search for news from Australia, where there is a 2100 to 0500 curfew in effect, and folks who choose not to get vaccinated are being told (by their prime minister, no less!) that henceforth they will not be able to participate in the economy!
