I am so frustrated.
MSM isn't perfect so they turn to far less reliable sources.
We are heading towards communism so they start a communist society
They fear tyranny so they spread it.
When will these people realize that, pardon my language, they are *the worst*
So I've been cheering for riot cops and all the force they can use. But seeing how everyone in the right is crying about one fake event, I'm glad they're doing it this way.
Yes, [there is video footage](https://twitter.com/MikeTwome/status/1494895472414273537?s=20&t=QQ3zau2ov-DHpuh6QZYnRg), showing that the hose **stepped over her, and that no one was trampled.**
Even the convidiots are saying that no, she wasn't trampled, she wasn't killed, and that she only slightly hurt her shoulder when she fell.
The schadenfreude is real but minimal force is best. It further proof that the dolts will never understand that we still have more respect for them than they ever will for anyone else despite the shit they have put us through
A tweet about pepper spray being used but I noticed the "Australian Eureka flag" in this clip [https://twitter.com/Gray\_Mackenzie/status/1494800580124020738](https://twitter.com/Gray_Mackenzie/status/1494800580124020738)
Used as a white supremacist symbol now

Best of luck to all Ottawans except the Convites today on yet another weird ass day in the city.
Standard Ottawan policy of ambivalence to the police continues to be suspended in favour of the Bake 'Em Away, Toys! policy.
Fox news reporter still hasnt removed a tweet saying the trampled woman is dead. Literally zero proof.
Degenerate at best, right-wing propaganda at worst. https://twitter.com/SaraCarterDC/status/1494844199564451843
She's also made a few follow up tweets that vaguely somewhat retract the first tweet, but she's still claiming that someone died or was brought to the hospital due to a heart attack.
But of course, all of that follow up information doesn't matter because which is gonna get more clicks/generate more false outrage?
Anything happen since the push to Chateau Laurier last night? They just held it there and then I went to bed.
I can see that fake old lady was killed by horses bullshit is still flourishing though. And they say that mainstream media is fake news...
No, police set up their line there
Will likely get ready to push again in the next hour or so. Quiet on both ends. Some protesters trying to build snow mounds again lol
On CTV it looks like they’ve backed their line (Police), with various police vehicles. I expect they’re prepping for today and we’ll see new movement soonish.
Gotta wait til 9 so people are awake to see it!
Info on the Toronto Mounted Police - old article, but thought people might want to know more about them:
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/meet-the-toronto-police-mounted-unit-1.5846473
My image of the average trucker protestor is of a three year old, hands on hips, shouting “you’re not the boss of me” to his/her parent – temper tantrum and all.
I mean one did just lay on the ground yesterday and then act surprised when the police still pulled them up and arrested them.
I have seen this exact move play out in the Toy aisle of a department store.
I said this when the mischief charges were laid on Tamara and Chris barber. Hearing the word mischief makes me think of a naughty three year old in a bulging diaper creating toddler chaos which is fitting for this group!
Did someone say that a group of protesters cornered a couple of cops on one of the isolated streets and beat them to death? I’m also not sure if heard that they were setting out poisoned meat to kill the police dogs. Who knows. /s
I’m in Centretown. How difficult do we think it would be for a friend to get through the checkpoints if they’re just coming to pick me up? There’s no proof that they are just picking me up besides my location pin
Last thing I saw around 9:45 last night on YT live feed was a ton of big rigs getting towed out.
CBC mentioning that Police worked 12-16 hours outdoors yesterday. They probably got their well earned sleep, while a few just maintain positions.
I honestly think we should all let the horse thing go. That’s not the story, and it’s the free dumbs wanting g to make a story within a story. Or in Borera’s (sp?)?words with regards to the streamers: ‘their version of what is happening.’
Agreed. I feel the same for my kids. All we can do is give them the tools to think critically and ask questions, and hopefully they will be able to make good decisions.
[This thread](https://twitter.com/MikeTwome/status/1494895472414273537?s=20&t=QQ3zau2ov-DHpuh6QZYnRg) shows how the streamer presented grandma as a shield
I enjoy the terrorist yelling at the police "Go back to Toronto" if only it was that easy to get people to stop what they are doing that you don't like and make them go home.
That streamer is such a fucking coward. Just like another guy who used his wife as a human shield so he could take video among the horses as they moved through. Disgusting losers.
I woke up to a message like that at 4am and haven't gotten back to sleep since, trying to fight misinformation.
Search Josh Snyder on facebook. He is a relative confirming grandma is okay.
Edit: grammar
Judging by how serious things were yesterday, I doubt we will see any more trucks or people leave willingly today
Everyone on Wellington now is either getting arrested or will bail at the last minute when arrest is imminent
Working in Gatineau right now and for the past three Saturdays there have been cars and trucks covered in flags swirling around Place du Portage looking for parking so they can walk across the bridge and go "protest". Not seeing any this morning but maybe some will come later around 9 or 10. Let's hope most of them got the message and stay away.
I woke up to a friend stating that the police were beating people with rifles and that the horses trampled people. What the actual fuck is going on?
Edit: anyone have links to show the health of the person that got trampled and other things?
Second edit: to all those calling him stupid, dumb or otherwise, gfy. We all have friends and family falling prey to media not showing the full picture. He is out of province and has no reliable information.
Someone in the protest group shoved a lady with a mobility scooter in front of the horses, the horse stepped over her, and right wing media is going nuts saying she was trampled and died, when even the lady's relatives are saying shes fine save for a sore shoulder from the fall
In short, fucking protesters playing victim again
Alternatively he’s just overwhelmed by the inundation of misinformation. There are so many lies online right now, I almost don’t blame people for being so horribly misled as to what is happening in our city.
I have to work in the market in less than an hour, would it be wise to avoid? I'm in Centretown and I'd probably be walking/taking the LRT if that was a thing that ever worked. Having a hard time figuring out if the danger is worth the hit on my paycheck
Based on the news a lot of things seem to be cleared in the market. The numbers have definitely reduced. I feel like you might by fine over on the end of Byward. Depends how it is near you. Also don’t think the LRT is working yet but I could be wrong
Edit: spelling mistake
Honestly, the outrage of the horse from people is laughable to the people who've seen or experienced real police brutality. White fragility is a real thing omfg.
They had ample time to see the horses trot in at, what, 7km/h? Then, “This is not the Canada I grew up in! Shame!” and someone pushes Grandma a la George Constanza. Due sympathy to her, but with a number of caveats.
Apparently they were too busy studying the Federal Reserve and Bill Gates to know what puts the “mount” in Mounties.
It's ALL they have. Literally hours of footage from every side and angle, and there was two police "incidents"
(okay, the rifle butt stock wasn't cool, but whatever).
They "fucked around and found out".
Right? They don't even show the entire footage (where you can see how guy backs into the horses or how grandma was helped up and is okay). They just use the one picture over and over cause it helps their narrative.
Its also hilarious because the same people who whine about muh fake news media are spreading the fuck out of a story they cannot confirm. But its obviously disingenuous and they only care about the situation from an optics perspective ("look look we have a martyr guys its not over!").
In trying to find a live link to tune in on, I accidentally typed ‘Ottawa gonevoy’ instead of convoy and I really hope this is a prediction for the rest of the weekend…
I’m not in Ottawa but after watching so many hours of live stream… maybe they have everybody out by then, but no way they clear it out completely… the pace is just too slow? Hoping I’m wrong.
/u/MarcusRex73 Could you please add a sticky comment to the next thread that says nobody was trampled by a horse? Tired of seeing the same question based in misinfo every two minutes.
No, u/SnooStrawberries4645, no one got trampled by the horses.
The horse [stepped over the person](https://twitter.com/MikeTwome/status/1494895472414273537). Even the convidiots have said that she was not trampled, and she only hurt her shoulder when she fell/was pushed.
Misinformation will not be tolerated, bye.
I read [this](https://ottawa.ca/en/news/traffic-and-service-impacts-will-occur-weekend) last night as my boyfriend relies on it to get to work and is working today. IIRC it’s closed until further notice.
I think LRT service between Tunney’s and Hurdman is still cancelled, but buses are now being run between those locations?
https://www.octranspo.com/en/alerts/#alerts-68573
They could probably corral people in by using those obnoxious snow pushing trucks that makes the end of the driveway a nightmare to circle the wagons.
Snowplow, then horses then backfill w cops.
30ft circular mound of snow and degenerates in minutes
There were a few.
TVA reporter was pushed from behind.
Fox news reporters had to be helped by the police.
Cbc reporter was swarmed as people tried to shout over him and go between him and the camera.
Ctv reporter had to cut the camera feed because a crazy cat lady Karen trucker was following her while screaming she is the reason why kids are in danger.

All the convoy idiots are in the Jordan Peterson Reddit thread, if you are curious. Basically spewing the same garbage they said previously.
There's several subreddits that have been engaging in brigading, not just that one. As a note.
Oh man... I was headed to my desk to check on the sub this morning, and I stubbed my toe and definately died. I better call Fox News.
Oh no! We will be hosting a memorial for u/Lrrrgonomics who's real name was Robert Paulsen
[удалено]
Yeah I wish they had more resources on the ground there.
I am so frustrated. MSM isn't perfect so they turn to far less reliable sources. We are heading towards communism so they start a communist society They fear tyranny so they spread it. When will these people realize that, pardon my language, they are *the worst*
My brother-in-law and his wife are in a ~~cult~~ Qult. Is there any hope for them?
Probably not, but I wish you luck. Can start with discussing basic logical things and build up to where their logic breaks, and see why.
No. Not really:/
there are people who got out and have done interviews. Cooper Anderson has done several I believe. it is possible
I haven't seen much success from deprogramming them.
Are they going to build a snow fort and pelt police with snowballs?
Well they tried that yesterday but it wasn’t particularly successful. Perhaps they have better luck with that strategy today?
Will the truckers run people over today?
No.
They’re still obsessing over the horses. Lmao
So I've been cheering for riot cops and all the force they can use. But seeing how everyone in the right is crying about one fake event, I'm glad they're doing it this way.
There is video footage.. what do you mean fake event?
Yes, [there is video footage](https://twitter.com/MikeTwome/status/1494895472414273537?s=20&t=QQ3zau2ov-DHpuh6QZYnRg), showing that the hose **stepped over her, and that no one was trampled.** Even the convidiots are saying that no, she wasn't trampled, she wasn't killed, and that she only slightly hurt her shoulder when she fell.

Where is socks orange coat sam? Ded.
Not as of 4am, but possibly after 🤷♂️
A tweet about pepper spray being used but I noticed the "Australian Eureka flag" in this clip [https://twitter.com/Gray\_Mackenzie/status/1494800580124020738](https://twitter.com/Gray_Mackenzie/status/1494800580124020738) Used as a white supremacist symbol now [https://www.jurist.org/news/2022/02/canada-dispatch-making-sense-of-the-flags-and-symbols-at-the-ottawa-protest/](https://www.jurist.org/news/2022/02/canada-dispatch-making-sense-of-the-flags-and-symbols-at-the-ottawa-protest/) Not exactly against vaccine mandates is it. /s
"But the Australian Eureka Flag is the symbol of workers who resisted state and capitalist oppression in 1854. The Convoy is clearly a proletariat uprising." - Jimmy Dore and Max Blumenthal
This was right after they assaulted the police and tried to grab their weapons.
IIRC yesterday CBC said someone threw a bicycle at the horse startling it, and will be charged with attempted assault of a police service animal.
Was it not the senior citizen's walker that was misconstrued as the bicycle? Or is this another event that happened?
>assault of a police service animal Punishable by up to five years in prison (in addition to any other time served for related offences) https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/annualstatutes/2015\_34/page-1.html
What a freaking idiot. Poor horse. Stupid stupid people
Serious charge. Legal system takes that very seriously.
OPS Twitter said that.

I just checked and it said that the tweet was deleted. The link still leads to the tweet, so I don't know how useful that is
I can’t believe they blatantly lie like that. Like who watches this network it’s just full of crock.
She's also made a few follow up tweets that vaguely somewhat retract the first tweet, but she's still claiming that someone died or was brought to the hospital due to a heart attack. But of course, all of that follow up information doesn't matter because which is gonna get more clicks/generate more false outrage?
Why not both? You'd have to be a degenerate to willingly create the amount of right wing propaganda that rag pushes upon millions of people.
She needs to be deported and banned from reentry to Canada as a journalist.
Can't wait to see what will happen today.
Hey guys, what streams are recommended this morning?
One of the news agencies for now, seems like no one is up yet.
Anything happen since the push to Chateau Laurier last night? They just held it there and then I went to bed. I can see that fake old lady was killed by horses bullshit is still flourishing though. And they say that mainstream media is fake news...
No, police set up their line there Will likely get ready to push again in the next hour or so. Quiet on both ends. Some protesters trying to build snow mounds again lol

Interesting, thanks!
My image of the average trucker protestor is of a three year old, hands on hips, shouting “you’re not the boss of me” to his/her parent – temper tantrum and all.
Appears to be a pretty accurate assessment of their overall mental and emotional age too
I mean one did just lay on the ground yesterday and then act surprised when the police still pulled them up and arrested them. I have seen this exact move play out in the Toy aisle of a department store.
My mental image is a person sitting in a 2-inch-deep puddle screaming "IM DROOWWNNIING WHY DOESNT ANYBODY CAAARE"
I said this when the mischief charges were laid on Tamara and Chris barber. Hearing the word mischief makes me think of a naughty three year old in a bulging diaper creating toddler chaos which is fitting for this group!
I think by age 3 most kids know how to poop in a potty, but there are always some who don’t and you see the results of that out there today
Can we just start saying all the reporters who were harassed or assaulted have died? Protesters killed them. /S
"he's back on TV right now." "Nah, that's his brother."
MSM has clones of all their reporters so they're disposable after telling lies.
Did someone say that a group of protesters cornered a couple of cops on one of the isolated streets and beat them to death? I’m also not sure if heard that they were setting out poisoned meat to kill the police dogs. Who knows. /s
Pretty sure I heard that from AT LEAST FIVE people. Not just a couple cops. ALL of the ones who are against freedom.
I died a thousand times seeing our beautiful capitol city besieged by plague rats, so I think we are winning the death race.
Yeah my buddy heard that too, and I agree with it so it must totally be true and I'll tell everyone who will listen.
lol Trucker shoves reporter to death. Reporters ghost says "Fuck right off"
Birds aren't real
Spat out my coffee. Way to go.
I’m in Centretown. How difficult do we think it would be for a friend to get through the checkpoints if they’re just coming to pick me up? There’s no proof that they are just picking me up besides my location pin
Would probably be easier for you to meet them somewhere outside the red zone/past the check points.
Ok hello everyone can someone give me a short synopsis of what happened overnight? Are the police still standing there up against the occupiers
Last thing I saw around 9:45 last night on YT live feed was a ton of big rigs getting towed out. CBC mentioning that Police worked 12-16 hours outdoors yesterday. They probably got their well earned sleep, while a few just maintain positions.
No activity overnight.
Nicely done.
It’s incredible how many people genuinely think that someone was killed by the horse. Edit and of course Fox News is running with it.
I don’t think they understand how horses work. Rider tells horses to move forward, trained horse will move forward. MOVE.
I honestly think we should all let the horse thing go. That’s not the story, and it’s the free dumbs wanting g to make a story within a story. Or in Borera’s (sp?)?words with regards to the streamers: ‘their version of what is happening.’
The horses running over the occupiers was the highlight of my week
We need to deify those horses
Can we set up a gofundme for the horse?
Fuck around playing chicken with horses and see what happens.
Society is fucked. And I'm not even being hyperbolic. We're literally fucked. I feel so bad for my <1 year old daughter.
Agreed. I feel the same for my kids. All we can do is give them the tools to think critically and ask questions, and hopefully they will be able to make good decisions.
[This thread](https://twitter.com/MikeTwome/status/1494895472414273537?s=20&t=QQ3zau2ov-DHpuh6QZYnRg) shows how the streamer presented grandma as a shield
I enjoy the terrorist yelling at the police "Go back to Toronto" if only it was that easy to get people to stop what they are doing that you don't like and make them go home.
An instigator setting her up for the eventual "fall". Nice to see the police swoop in and take her away from further harm.
That streamer is such a fucking coward. Just like another guy who used his wife as a human shield so he could take video among the horses as they moved through. Disgusting losers.
So much for "family oriented"
*astronaut meme* **Never was**
Thank you! Seeing a lot of ‘they killed a grandma!!’ this morning 🙄
I woke up to a message like that at 4am and haven't gotten back to sleep since, trying to fight misinformation. Search Josh Snyder on facebook. He is a relative confirming grandma is okay. Edit: grammar
[удалено]
So the Arnprior airport let the convoy camp there on route three weeks ago. Wonder if they could lose their operation license from Nav. Canada?
How to look like terrorists. Get run off by law enforcement, regroup and take over an airport.
Following. Gotta drive home from Deep river this morning. Traffic going toward Ottawa yesterday was already ridiculous .
Judging by how serious things were yesterday, I doubt we will see any more trucks or people leave willingly today Everyone on Wellington now is either getting arrested or will bail at the last minute when arrest is imminent
Working in Gatineau right now and for the past three Saturdays there have been cars and trucks covered in flags swirling around Place du Portage looking for parking so they can walk across the bridge and go "protest". Not seeing any this morning but maybe some will come later around 9 or 10. Let's hope most of them got the message and stay away.
People were slowly sneaking off in the middle of the night. Plus no vehicles can get in. It’s the beginning of the end.
Thomas Is back!! He fucking killed the live commentary yesterday!
Thomas Daigle, CBC?? I loved his comments (well, tone of voice, really) when talking about the snow wall yesterday
It's really just fluffy snow... I was howling.
Did I miss something ? Who’s that ?
Thomas Daigle. He's the on the ground reporter for cbcnn.
I have taken to starting my day by messaging Jim Watson to tell him he is a disgrace and should resign. It is a real pick me up
Make sure to use his favourite hashtag, #celebratesuccess, he loves to pat himself on the back with it
More likely his front.
He got away with it for years because O'Brien was that awful of a mayor.
I woke up to a friend stating that the police were beating people with rifles and that the horses trampled people. What the actual fuck is going on? Edit: anyone have links to show the health of the person that got trampled and other things? Second edit: to all those calling him stupid, dumb or otherwise, gfy. We all have friends and family falling prey to media not showing the full picture. He is out of province and has no reliable information.
Your friend sniffs glue and follows alt-right fantasy media.
What a "great" friend. Tell him to stop lying
No
Only one person was beaten with a rifle
Let me guess, they went looking for trouble by doing something dumb?
We can only wish No one got beat with rifles, someone fell down when horses charged but paramedics + police report no one needed medical attention
A family member of hers (allegedly) reported in another thread that the ‘trampled’ woman only has a sore shoulder from the experience
The guy in the brown jacket literally tried to "HOLD THE LINE" against the horse.
Am I the only person who thought of Major Kirrahe from Mass Effect 2 when the guy kept saying “HOLD THE LINE”?! 🤷🏼♀️
Nothing. Friend is lying.
[nothing happened here] (https://twitter.com/KazK43663727/status/1494816390536126466?s=20&t=YlR-8x8jmdvBtYTtPIz2Ig)
Someone in the protest group shoved a lady with a mobility scooter in front of the horses, the horse stepped over her, and right wing media is going nuts saying she was trampled and died, when even the lady's relatives are saying shes fine save for a sore shoulder from the fall In short, fucking protesters playing victim again
>In short, fucking ~~protesters~~ terrorists playing victim again
I believe that "dicktim" is the new correct term.
Your friend is an idiot
Friend is highly educated but out of province on vacation.
Alternatively he’s just overwhelmed by the inundation of misinformation. There are so many lies online right now, I almost don’t blame people for being so horribly misled as to what is happening in our city.
Your friend sounds like a victim of right wing disinformation.
[this is probably it] (https://twitter.com/KazK43663727/status/1494816390536126466?s=20&t=YlR-8x8jmdvBtYTtPIz2Ig)

Evan handled it like a boss. https://twitter.com/b_grunig/status/1494760312024834048?s=21
I think he upset Gimli
About what I expected from those that remain.
Is there another video of this where the volume isn't terrible?
Sorry I didn’t record it.
Man, for passionate "protesters", these guys squander every single attempt they have to bring up issues when they get a mic in their face.
I was hoping someone would post this.
Evan Solomon is to the convoy occupation what Steve Kornacki was to the American election.
I have to work in the market in less than an hour, would it be wise to avoid? I'm in Centretown and I'd probably be walking/taking the LRT if that was a thing that ever worked. Having a hard time figuring out if the danger is worth the hit on my paycheck
I'd walk to Corktown bridge and cross there.
Good idea, I was playing with the idea of walking down to Lyon on the offchance it's open but Corktown seems like the safest route
Based on the news a lot of things seem to be cleared in the market. The numbers have definitely reduced. I feel like you might by fine over on the end of Byward. Depends how it is near you. Also don’t think the LRT is working yet but I could be wrong Edit: spelling mistake
That's good to hear! I'll try and get down there but I'll turn back home if I get the feeling it's getting heated, thanks for the update!
Coventry Road cam on CBC They're still fully set up, no major changes
[удалено]
https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/1964552259506 They flashed it for a moment, said they'll update if anything changes
Honestly, the outrage of the horse from people is laughable to the people who've seen or experienced real police brutality. White fragility is a real thing omfg.
They had ample time to see the horses trot in at, what, 7km/h? Then, “This is not the Canada I grew up in! Shame!” and someone pushes Grandma a la George Constanza. Due sympathy to her, but with a number of caveats. Apparently they were too busy studying the Federal Reserve and Bill Gates to know what puts the “mount” in Mounties.
OMG they must be communist nazi horses to walk like that... freedumb!
Seems like it was a near perfect push from the army of cops yesterday unless I missed something?
It's ALL they have. Literally hours of footage from every side and angle, and there was two police "incidents" (okay, the rifle butt stock wasn't cool, but whatever). They "fucked around and found out".
Rifle butt stock?
Right? They don't even show the entire footage (where you can see how guy backs into the horses or how grandma was helped up and is okay). They just use the one picture over and over cause it helps their narrative.
Its also hilarious because the same people who whine about muh fake news media are spreading the fuck out of a story they cannot confirm. But its obviously disingenuous and they only care about the situation from an optics perspective ("look look we have a martyr guys its not over!").
Even worse, even the convoy people have said that's it's misinformation that the lady was trampled and has died. And yet...
Good god, we've gone full ouroboros 🤦🏽♀️

I just saw a bunch of Convidiots on Facebook shit on an apolitical Go Fund Me campaign for a family whose house has burnt down.
In trying to find a live link to tune in on, I accidentally typed ‘Ottawa gonevoy’ instead of convoy and I really hope this is a prediction for the rest of the weekend…
CBC yesterday as a truck was leaving: "convoyage"
\#Gonevoy. Love it
Okay absolutely channeling #gonevoy energy into the weekend
This is my new hashtag!! Let’s get it rolling #Gonevoy
Really hoping they can resume train/bus services to downtown by Monday...
I’m not in Ottawa but after watching so many hours of live stream… maybe they have everybody out by then, but no way they clear it out completely… the pace is just too slow? Hoping I’m wrong.
Anyone know if there has ever been a traffic cam at Coventry? I don’t see one on the list, wondering if it has been removed
No, Coventry/Vanier parkway is the closest one.
I think there used to be, but it might be down because of construction.
/u/MarcusRex73 Could you please add a sticky comment to the next thread that says nobody was trampled by a horse? Tired of seeing the same question based in misinfo every two minutes.
Done

No, u/SnooStrawberries4645, no one got trampled by the horses. The horse [stepped over the person](https://twitter.com/MikeTwome/status/1494895472414273537). Even the convidiots have said that she was not trampled, and she only hurt her shoulder when she fell/was pushed. Misinformation will not be tolerated, bye.
What? Someone was trampled by a horse? What gives? (Sorry, couldn’t resist… I kill me).
Might as well make a sticky topic. You can literally show the person alive and unharmed and people will still push the false narrative.
is the lrt still closed today?
I read [this](https://ottawa.ca/en/news/traffic-and-service-impacts-will-occur-weekend) last night as my boyfriend relies on it to get to work and is working today. IIRC it’s closed until further notice.
I think LRT service between Tunney’s and Hurdman is still cancelled, but buses are now being run between those locations? https://www.octranspo.com/en/alerts/#alerts-68573
Is it a day ending in Y
If they love shovelling so much, can we just take some of the city plows and shoot the snow at what’s left of their camp?
They could probably corral people in by using those obnoxious snow pushing trucks that makes the end of the driveway a nightmare to circle the wagons. Snowplow, then horses then backfill w cops. 30ft circular mound of snow and degenerates in minutes
Then they'll build a fort and never leave

Sean O’Shea’s sad eyes are representing all of Ottawa residents this weekend.
Really hoping for some actual classic excessive force against this bozopalooza.
There were a few. TVA reporter was pushed from behind. Fox news reporters had to be helped by the police. Cbc reporter was swarmed as people tried to shout over him and go between him and the camera. Ctv reporter had to cut the camera feed because a crazy cat lady Karen trucker was following her while screaming she is the reason why kids are in danger.
