Isn't that sick 2 people? 7 or 8 years in jail for peaceful protest. I hope so many Canadians come out to defend them. I'll be one of them. Government. Pretty d*** disgusting, Trudeau. Made that happen telling my neighbors when they had an extra person in the house. Go to hell. I can't stand none of you. I totally agree with that woman speaking about this. I refused to totally hate myself for my opinion. I see. What's going on? It's a takeover.

This is the most biased Canadian propaganda I've ever heard. I was standing in line at city hall in Calgary (paying my past due power bill which I can barely afford, even though I make 40k a year.) and watched a flood of immigrants in front of me claiming their 100% free bus passes. Apparently, you need an authorisation letter from welfare to claim your free bus pass, yet, none of them seemed to have documentation that matched their id. One guy picked up six free bus passes with a stack of letters that didn't match his name, or, even surname, at all. The cashiers seemed like they had just given up and handed over the bus passes saying, "next time make sure the person named in the letter is here to pick it up in their free pass person." <sigh>
