Canada really is turning into a police state before our eyes

AMERICAN THINKER:
By Andrea Widburg

One of the hallmarks of liberty is a reliable legal system.  In totalitarian countries, one of the ways you control people is to keep them perpetually off-balance.  The law and its application are utterly unpredictable.  People become paralyzed and dare not do anything that might offend the regime, lest they get destroyed.  And that’s what we’re seeing in Canada, where the newly dictatorial government is making no pretense of abiding by the rule of law.

A very specific aspect of the rule of law is that new laws are not applied retroactively.  In a free country, one with a safe, reliable legal system, if it was legal for you to buy a croissant on Monday, the fact that the law changed on Tuesday to make croissants illegal does not mean that the police can come and arrest you for that Monday croissant.  In a police state, of course, the police can arrest you at any time for anything, including engaging in conduct that was legal when you engaged in it.

With that in mind, I give you a series of tweets from Mark Strahl, a Canadian member of Parliament (so we must assume, for now, that he’s telling the truth): more

  1. Years from now I hope the Police can look back on their decisions and actions and be proud enough to show their children and grandchildren that they stood for something instead of kneeling to Comrade Castreau!

  2. It’s looking more and more like one shot at the ballot box for both Canada and the U.S. If that doesn’t work, the bastards are going to have to be shot without ballots.

  3. These actions are going to motivate some lone wolf to go Timothy McVeigh and that does not bode well for anyone. McVeigh let it be known that he needed a high body count to be heard. He was willing to accept collateral damage in the way of “civilian casualties.”

    The most dangerous man in the world is aman who has nothing left to lose and these fucking idiots in Canada are doing everything to make sure that as many people who were even simply there protesting are left in exactly that condition. The law of probability is that there are people out there plotting events like happened in Oklahoma City, quietly assembling the means to unleash their response and patiently waiting for the proper moment. The other thing is this is EXACTLY the response that the people around the world who are directing this know all about it and are all in for it. It is what they need to take their tyranny to the next level.

  4. Canada denied Tamara Lich, the trucker organizer, bail.
    If only she had fired bullets at a mayoral candidate she would be free like in Louisville.

    Seriously though, this type of tyranny should lead to public officials being assassinated.
    When folks have nothing left to lose it’s indeed time to kill…

  5. The Dirty Dems here are salivating at the thought of doing the same here.
    They’ve started weaponizing the law more than ever with Soros bought and paid for AG’s around the country.

  6. Same old question: Bullets or Ballots?

    Obviously the nihilistic totalitarians (Trudeau and his henchmen – Biden’s puppeteers and their GESTAPO/SS (FBI, CIA, NSA, DIA, USCP, &c.) – the Evil Bitch of New Zealand – and the Oppressors of Australia) deem themselves invulnerable – otherwise they wouldn’t be using such openly lawless aggression.

    Time will tell.

  7. I am deeply concerned that peaceful protesters in Ottawa, Canada, are being brutally and unjustifiably attacked for the suppression of freedom and democracy by the Canadian government. . We call on the Canadian government to exercise restraint, not use violence, respect the people’s freedom to demonstrate, and not suppress protesters.

  8. “Crush humanity out of shape once more, under similar hammers, and it will twist itself into the same tortured forms. Sow the same seed of rapacious license and oppression over again, and it will surely yield the same fruit according to its kind.” -Charles Dickens

  9. The US has become a ‘police state’ under some withered crypt-keeping withered race supremacist daughter-molesting profiteering crook sewer sludge who goes by the name of Joe Biden.

  10. As euphemistically, as possible:
    Andrea, you ignorant slut.

    There is no Rule Of Law(TM): Subject To Change Without Notice(TM).

    There can be no “safe, reliable legal system” where it “was legal for you to buy a croissant on Monday” but illegal for you to buy a croissant “on Tuesday”.

    That is the very essence of “Show me the man, and I’ll show you the crime.”

    Years from now, I hope they don’t have to show their grandchildren such atrocities. Because we sent all their children to “the camps”.
