Anti-vax protesters force Canuck PM to flee campaign rally

Walt has received a report, confirmed by Agent 2, that the Rt. Hon. Blackie McBlackface, Prime Minister of Canuckistan, was forced by angry protesters to run away from a Liberal Party rally which was to be held yesterday afternoon in Bolton ON, a once-peaceful village northwest of Toronto. 

Mr Socks is campaigning for a third term in a federal election to be held on September 20th. The sign seems to suggest that Trudeaumania v. 2.0 has run its course.
The angry crowd appeared to be anti-vaxxers for the most part, incensed about the Liberal Plan to introduce "vaccine passports" from coast to coast to coast. If this goes ahead, the sheeple of Canada will have to produce an electronic or paper "passport" -- i.e. have their papers in order! -- to be able to go to the cinema or the gym or a sporting even, or... just about anywhere. Just another rod in the fasces of state control.

Sergeant Dudley Doright, head of the security detail protecting M Trudeau, said that when they realized there were more protesters in the crowd than Liberal supporters, they reckoned that it was time for the soon-to-be-former PM to get out of Dodge, "in the interest of public safety" of course, not because he was afraid of getting roughed up.

Mr Socks and his team fled to "an undisclosed location" in nearby Brampton ON, where he held a presser in which he vowed to "meet anger with compassion." He said he recognized that the pandemic has been hard on everyone, including those who protested at his event. "We all had a difficult year. Those folks out protesting, they had a difficult year too, and I know and I hear the anger, the frustration, perhaps the fear."

The only fear visible in videos of the presser was that of His Wokeness, who appeared to be shaken (not stirred) by the sight of people who actually oppose his plan to transform the former Great White North into a "post-national state" where critical race theory is put into practice and straight white people are put in their place. (We note that the Liberal candidate whose sign appears in the photo is, to judge by his name, a Sikh.)

Sadly, the transformation of Canada into Canuckistan, begun by Trudeau I, has almost been completed by Trudeau II, who expressed his astonishment that some Canadians don't like what's happening to their country and their freedoms. 

He said he has never seen this level of anger or intensity on a campaign trail, including his time as a kid when campaigning with his father. "I think this is something that Canadians, all of us, need to reflect on," he said, "because it's not who we are." Walt sez, "Oh yeah?"

Meanwhile south of the World's Longest Undefended Border (TM), the Department of Homeland Security has released a list of the top three security threats to Sleepy Joe's America. 


Seems Canadians and Americans aren't so different after all!

Where's Walt(o) now? Notes from Ed.

Ed. here. Walt has left me to shovel out our cabin in the pines while he is at an undisclosed location in the Great No-longer-white North. Tomorrow night he and Poor Len Canayen and two of Walt's trusted agents will sit in the middle of a large room, surrounded by TVs and computers, tracking and discussing the returns from the Canadian federal election. Many a good time will be had by all. Or not, as the case may be.

Walt has predicted the result of said election. He thinks Trudeaumania II will produce a Liberal minority. (Lifetime pct .976.) The Liberal minority, he says, will have been elected by the visible minorities of Canada's three big metropolitan areas: Vancouver, Montréal and, above all, Toronto.

The Canadian press -- not to be confused with Canadian Press -- labour under the delusion that their endorsements matter. The Toronto Star endorsed Justin Trudeau's Liberals. No surprise there, the Red Star being so liberal, so PC as to make any other endorsement impossible. La Presse, of Montréal, also chooses le Parti Libéral, for reasons which make sense in that city.

The oddest endorsement of this election -- perhaps of this century, so far -- comes from the good grey Globe and Mail. The Glob's editor, David Walmsley, is an Ulsterman, who could hardly be expected to plump for either M Trudeau or Mr Mulcair, both Cafeteria Catholics. But he couldn't bring himself to stand up for the dictatorial Steve Harper, so penned a leader calling on Canadians to vote for the Conservatives, on condition that Mr. Harpoon resign immediately after winning!

No, dear reader, Ed. kids you not. See "Globe and Mail mocked on Twitter after endorsing Tories but not Harper". Mr. Walmsley evidently thinks it possible to suck and blow at the same time. Best Tweet: "I endorse the Globe but not the Mail." Poor Len's comment: "It's like calling the Montréal Canadiens to win the Stanley Cup, providing they trade Carey Price for Jonathan Bernier." (Canuck readers will doubtless understand that one.)

Speaking of les Glorieux, with last night's victory over Detroit, they have now won the first six games of the new season, the best start in the history of the club. Sadly, the very fine game was once again not available to Francophone (= French-speaking) fans residing west of Québec who don't subscribe to Robbers ridiculously expensive NHL Centre Ice package.

The game was telecast, in English, on Hockey Night in Canada on the CBC, with the Toronto game relegated to CITY. But the TVA coverage, which should have been on "Le forfait en français", was not. Channels 423 and 424 were dark, once again. See "Canada's team MIA from 'Hockey Night in Canada'" (WWW 11/10/15). If you're a Bell customer and subscribe to the "NHL French package", complain!

That's it from this corner of the woods. Walt will return on Tuesday, or possibly Wednesday depending on how long it takes him to dry out.
