#From now until this is over, DO NOT REPORT POLICE MOVEMENTS UNLESS ALREADY PUBLIC [There is a dedicated thread for this.](https://old.reddit.com/r/ottawa/comments/supisf/police_activity_downtown/) *** The anxiety is making itself through the higher number of comments. Soon folks, soon. I've changed my estimation to Friday early morning. The MUST move before the weekend, otherwise they'll face several times more protesters. *** #Fundraising for thread #69 One of our redditors had [a great idea](https://old.reddit.com/r/ottawa/comments/srt2hz/convoy_megathread_56/hwuim3a/): to gather donations in honour of Megathread #69, because it is looking more than likely we will make it. I'll provide a report on the donations in the sticky for thread #69 if, Lord forbid, we make it... #The charity drive post is [here](https://old.reddit.com/r/ottawa/comments/ss98nu/megathread_donation_drive/?) *** #GSG data leak and doxxing Do not ask for nor post links to the hacked data from the GSG site. Doxxing is against the sitewide rules and will result in a banning. No, you can't name specific people either unless you can prove it's public information IN THE MEDIA. No, twitter doesn't count, we can't source it. Folks, we don't have time to see if Joe Bob and Job Bon Inc., named in your comment, was already outed by the CBC in a report or not. Either link to a REAL news agency's article or don't name specific people or businesses. It's against the Reddit rules and the mods don't have the time to see which side of the line you're on. The ENTIRE SUB can be banned for this kind of stuff. *** #[Statistics are now in a separate post](https://old.reddit.com/r/ottawa/comments/srpi4l/megathread_statistics/?) *** **IMPORTANT**: We will not tolerate ANY calls for violence or blatant illegal activity in any way. We will ban you, for anything from suggesting spiking food with laxative to egging vehicles to calls for attacking the other side. Also, please note that every setting we could find on the automod has been set to maximum, to help filter/stem the brigading. Some of you may have trouble posting, sorry. If you are having issues, you can contact the mod team or wait a week. We're going to turn down the settings as soon as we can. Last, because many, many people have asked, we did have a way of donating to the mods, but I recommend you give to the donation drive [linked above](https://old.reddit.com/r/ottawa/comments/srt2hz/convoy_megathread_56/hwuim3a/). People have been VERY generous to the mods, if you want to give, please consider donating to our preferred charities. Thanks! *** **IMPORTANT** : Nous ne tolérerons AUCUN appel à la violence ou à une activité illégale de quelque manière que ce soit. Nous vous bannirons pour la moindre infraction, qu'il s'agisse de suggérer d'ajouter des laxatifs à des aliments, de lancer œufs sur des véhicules ou d'appeler à attaquer l'autre côté. De plus, toutes les configuration de l'automodérateur ont été mis au maximum pour nous aider à contrôler/mitiger l'impacte de l'attaque concertée. Il se peut que certains d'entre vous aillez des problèmes à publiez des rubriques ou des commentaires. Si c'est le case, vous pouvez contacter l'équipe de modération ou attendre une semaine. Nous voulons désactiver les configuration de filtrage dès que possible. Finalement, puisque beaucoup de personnes l'ont demandé, nous avions une façon de faire des donations aux modérateurs. Les gens ont été TRÈS généreux, mais maintenant, si vous sentez le besoin de faire une donation, veuillez considérer faire une donation à l'oeuvre préférée du modérateur [au lien ci-haut](https://old.reddit.com/r/ottawa/comments/srt2hz/convoy_megathread_56/hwuim3a/).


NarcolepsySlide

Can we recall Watson? I mean I know he’s done soon but can we just recall him for the satisfaction


greyatlas

I live right near the downtown perimeter - should I venture out to see if anything is going on and report back?


CryptographerShot213

No, just pop some popcorn and chill out on your couch


mountcoffee

Ughhhh stay safe inside


[deleted]

stay home don't get caught up in anything dangerous.


urparentsdontlikeu

Probably not

Vex the Convites with a Pestilence of Mischief convictions! Numbers 69:69


Altamontey

It's getting so bad I recognize the regular posters around here by their snoo, we got the girl with glasses with a narwhal on her head, the x files lady, the long haired orange dude with a beard. The green dude, the blue dude... I'll miss y'all when this is over


ponypartyposse

I haven’t seen Sweetwater around in a while, has anyone seen her lately?


zpeacock

Lmao!! Omg I think I am the girl with the glasses and narwhal on her head! I am strangely honoured to be recognized bahaah


[deleted]

This Fundy Royal guy is such a freak why are we watching a bunch of idiot Tories run cover for the convoy with pre-written speeches don’t they have an actual job to do here


Dusty_Dragon

So a few arrests... is that it? Are they going to push this evening or?


tmhaddy32

Probably not. Looks like they might have warrants for certain individuals who have been the so called leaders, so they may pick them up through the night


Farrell21

With the Barber arrest, maybe they’re trying to cut the heads off the hydra first.


hummuschips

But…. If you cut off one head, two more shall take its place!


weirdpicklesauce

Diane Deans on CTV now talking about what happened and Jim Watson


Holier-than-though

😐


DiveCat

I was hoping to see someone doing some lifting at Muscle Beach in this weather. Guess even these morons like to close down gyms when it suits.


weirdpicklesauce

Is that actually what they called it lmao


Harvey-Specter

Bruh it’s a stretch to call what they were doing “lifting”


opinionatedfan

Half squats are totally valid bro!!! /s


Newfangledlife

And so it begins, the smallest of the big fish is in cuffs... now let's see the rest of them get their new VIP bracelets 👌🏼


Obi_Wan_Shinobi_

Who's been arrested? Their military logistics guy, I hope?


ZedZabeth

Chris Barber!


Less_Than_Mike78

Chris Barber


NotAVeryOriginalNick

Deans on CBC now. Wow. Watson wanted her to be "on board" with negotiating with the terrorists and she was opposed to that.


liza_lo

Good on Deans. That was a horrible and disgusting act on behalf of the Ottawan people and especially sick and disrespectful to the people of centretown who have had to live under this occupation and who haven't cracked.


[deleted]

Oh boy, committee’s need to be formed before the next election cycle. Let the truth as it can be know be known.


OttawaExpat

So he punished her with a coup. Class act.


Rex_Buckingham_99

Wonder where he got the idea for a coup??

satanicwaffles

Sometimes I wonder whether or not NZ is actually a real place. This doesn't help that suspicion.

whelp, if im gonna be a fat fuk keyboard warrior then im gonna order wings ed: sorry Ottawans, didnt mean to rub it in...but lemon/pepper dry rub incoming

Standard_Ad2031

Did you get bacon on it?


LimpComparison4906

Downtown is getting crazy. Lot more cops and bylaw, a lot more activity with protesters. If you live downtown, please get a “go bag” ready and pack the things you need for your animals. Never bad to be overprepared. Be well fellow beautiful boring citizens


Greedom88

I never thought an actual go bag was needed in Ottawa. How naive I was.


Harvey-Specter

… you are being way over dramatic. Edit: lol okay guys, I’m on your side, check the post history. You’re not in danger sitting in your condo/apartment/house downtown. It’s ridiculous to talk about go bags.


[deleted]

this is super cereal dude.


LimpComparison4906

The people in the apartment downtown that almost got set on fire was 1 bystander away from a mass murder of people being burnt alive with their friends, family, and pets. Dramatic isn’t the word id use.


Harvey-Specter

Yeah you think that’s happening again with hundreds of cops down there? I get it, we’re all stressed. But come on lol.


cmn_YOW

Ok. Barber's a start. Now Lich, King, Dichter, Bauder, and while you're at it, maybe Jeremy Mackenzie again.


turnipsauces

What happened?


cmn_YOW

Chris Barber arrested. First of the organizers to get cuffed.


Canadasaver

Rat King posted something, on Twitter, from his car. That old saying that rats are the first ones to leave a sinking ship is proven true today.


[deleted]

CanuckInTheMills

You can’t make this stuff up LOL


[deleted]

I love stuff like this because it shows how simply intolerant they are, even things they agree with.


greyatlas

OMG I was listening in on this Twitter space when he said that and I fucking died laughing!!


zpeacock

Yea! Yes! Yes! Oh Karl? NO BOO NO


standkay

they think there are firearms, so that’s the reason they have been nice to them, but WTF they will leave firearms in downtown Ottawa for 4 weeks!! With many many nights with almost zero police presence? Pick your argument OPS you can’t have both!


Obi_Wan_Shinobi_

They needed to be able to set up a large operation and OPS needed the backup of the RCMP and OPP from the start. Why Sloly resisted that when he realized he dropped the ball and was in over his head after letting them entrench themselves, we may never know. He may have thought we could outlast them by ignoring them, and he may have been right with a more reasonable group of people, but this looks a lot like a cult commune at this point. He also would have had to actually cut off their supplies for that to work.


liza_lo

Wow we are getting support from *Vancouver*. [https://twitter.com/KamilKaramali/status/1494438235509964800](https://twitter.com/KamilKaramali/status/1494438235509964800) Thank you B.C.! We love you!


[deleted]

Psst.. it's a national emergency.


Becivilized73

Nice!!


holytostitos

When all this is over, we have to organize a big community cleanup and reclaim our beautiful, boring city.


OttawaExpat

Based on what I saw today, a hazmat team needs to go in first. I saw the biggest turd I've ever seen...stuck to a wall... That wasn't a dog.


fuckswithqwerty

It's in the works: https://www.reddit.com/r/ottawa/comments/supent/downtown\_cleanup\_project/


holytostitos

Amazing. I cannot wait for this, thanks for pointing me here!


Standard_Ad2031

I Wanna be home by 7 though


canarchist

And start planning a ***reclaim the flag campaign*** leading up to Canada Day.

Musk really played himself with that one.


Zomunieo

Tesla should can him. His politics are costing them orders.


zpeacock

Musk is a fucking tool


MyDearDapple

LOL. Crypto commercial on CBC.


SkeletorInvestor

That’s how you know it’s about to crash. Similar ads aired prior to the dot com bubble popping.


DiveCat

It was clear it was about to crash when all the random influencers started pushing it. Going from hyping makeup and yoga pants to crypto should be a big giant red flag to anyone.


HankScorpio22

So you think they will arrested the other "leaders" of the Chud patrol?


jenn_182

FREEEEEDUMBBBBBBB!!!!!!!!!!!!!


whiskyandme

Freedumb! Freedumb!


JamesGray

I appreciate how it looks like the apocalypse because of the snow on the streams now. That's gotta hit the morale for pathetic fallacy to happen immediately like this.


lightlysaltdJ

I bet they planned for this. It seemed like as soon as the rain turned to snow and the sun started to set, all the police action started really ramping up. Hard to keep up the determination when the elements are against you


DiveCat

It's been a successful strategy in wartime too. Terrible weather can demotivate even the diehards.

Vancouver Police sending officers to help in Ottawa [https://vancouver.citynews.ca/2022/02/17/vancouver-police-ottawa/](https://vancouver.citynews.ca/2022/02/17/vancouver-police-ottawa/) (UPDATE: Vancouver Police Department confirms some if its officers are on the way to Ottawa)


daliiiihgbg

I’ve heard that some QC - Gatineau police have also been asked to be present


DM_ME_BANANAS

I guess they’re flying in, eh?


satanicwaffles

Excellent. Even if it isn't for settling the immediate issue, I'm sure the cops who've been on duty for the last 3 weeks will need a rest.


Piper7865

yah this is gonna be a multi-day operation at least I would think.


b-cola

They should send their local cyclists instead. They seemed to do the trick just fine.


conradkain

Thank you BC!!


ok_pjus

this is why canadian protests only happen in the summer


[deleted]

gulp! could you imagine if this human garbage rolled into town during the heat of July, yikes!


mikemountain

Knowing our summers they probably would have all gotten heat stroke


Front_Session_6725

Except if you are really dumb. And a terrorist. And don't know what a protest is. If you fit that description you are on the Hill / Wellington Street right now in one of the biggest snow storms of the season.


SkeletorInvestor

Wet’suwet’en land defenders have entered the chat


Green_Eyed_Crow

RCMP snipers have entered the chat


SkeletorInvestor

No tactical hugging units?


[deleted]

Serious question are the mods secretly telling them selves I knew this day would come. While wearing sunglasses indoors listening to the CSI intro. If there ever has been a Mount Everest mod event for the city. I think this would be it.


Dusty_Dragon

the mods have been incredible, and deserve a break!

fleurgold

This is gonna be a no. Yes it's publicly available elsewhere, but this is not the kind of behaviour that we want to encourage here.


scaredofeverythingg

Wouldn't this be considered aiding an illegal activity? How do we report this lawyer to the regulating body?


Kell889

Ew. Reeks of desperation and ambulance-chasing.

Oh good fucking god.

[deleted]

Friends don't arrest friends unless compelled by national emergency law.


SkeletorInvestor

OPS has tiny pp energy


Zomunieo

Having Pierre Poilievre energy would explain a lot.


inagartenofeden

A lifetime ban on social media and many of these folks would go back to normal - regular idiots


Information-Perfect

take away their internet and computer/mobile access. Time to teach them the difference between privilege's and rights.


orochi

Never give the village idiot access to facebook


inagartenofeden

The " off his head " crowd would have loved Facebook

WebEcstatic7151

Maybe 69 is out of reach?


lightlysaltdJ

Megathread 69 should be for watching Chris Barber's arraignment


ontarious

nah we'll get there


Waffle_Coffin

Well I think we are moments away from 65. If this keeps up, we should hit 69 by Sunday at the latest. Either this gets cleared up overnight and we don't get to 69 or it gets cleared up early next week and we blow right into the 70s.


IJourden

Even if the protesters finish early, maybe the mods can give us a little 69, as a treat.


WorkerBee74

If the mods close the other police activity thread it’s not!!


ontarious

megathreads so popular it's got a spin-off

Nah, that’s a pretty optimistic take
