Ahh yes, the "speech" of 160dB ship horns for 22 hours a day for 3 weeks in residential neighborhoods.
(Just to be clear, is case anyone doesn't know about this, the above is either an absolutely insane or absurdly dishonest characterization, it's easy to do your own research)
Comparing truck and ship horns with closed circuits for 22 hours or more a day to "music from a summer festival" might not be the MOST disingenuous comparison I've heard, but it's pretty close, if not.
Ah yes, the confederate flag, that ubiquitous symbol of Canadian freedom.
Don’t forget the farmers nazi, the nurses nazi, the little kids nazi, the immigrant dark skin nazi.
The oppression clearly came from the government, it’s high time to wake up.
At this point I don’t know if this is a parody position or you really believe it.
I mean, if we're going to make this analogy, the thing that was signed was Treaty of Paris of 1763.
The usa only requires 3/4 of state legislators to agree before it becomes binding on all of them. In canada, the rule depends on the thing, but generally its 7 provinces containing >50% of population. Quebec was the only province not to agree to the charter.
If we're making a comparison to the usa, it works basically the same way.
> What makes no sense is the federal government can apparently decide to "suspend the constitution" as it pleases (and did so for peaceful freedom of speech demonstrations by truckers recently).
This is incorrect. The emergencies act did not suspend the constitution.
It would make sense for Quebec to ignore it since, well, they didn't sign it. Just like the US constitution doesn't apply since, well, Canada didn't sign it.
> Sadly, other political bodies do this as well, and it is becoming more common.
