WHAT'S HAPPENING ON CITIFIED VICTORIA
... not sure why a temporary parking structure is desirable. i'm sure it wears out quicker than a concrete one.
Perhaps the thought is that a multi-use development that includes underground parking will eventually be built at SoFMC.

that whole thing looks like it could use some "fendering" to save it from being knocked over. does the city have any fendering experts still on staff?

Zero protestors showed up in Ottawa. Will more come here?
Will the City denounce it (it’s their arena).
Let’s see.

My tax dollars support the arena, and I support free speech. Dr. Peterson has every right to be there, whether the CoV likes it or not.

I imagine the same will happen here. Freedom of speech is a 2 way street.

As Americans are learning quickly, it’s not the second, but the first amendment, that they need to focus a bit more effort on.

Carr:As long as they allow Jimmy Carr I'm good...
Carr said: “When people talk about the Holocaust, they talk about the tragedy and horror of 6 million Jewish lives being lost to the Nazi war machine. But they never mention the thousands of Gypsies that were killed by the Nazis.
“No one ever wants to talk about that, because no one ever wants to talk about the positives.”

Hypocrisy, tyranny, thought control, contrived political divides... there are lots of options.

If all else fails, just say "it's dangerous for people to be thinking about stuff".

The usual line is his rhetoric makes [insert group] unsafe.

Much of the CoV's official party line (and subsequent actions) over the past decade has made me feel unsafe, yet it has continued unabated.

He gets a lot of free media in every city he visits, except in the USA. Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Europe, lots of “controversial speaker coming” stories. In the USA media not so bothered.
