ER Editor: First, Ottawa’s mayor Jim Watson declared a state of emergency yesterday, Feb. 6. See this from RT – Ottawa mayor seeks federal assistance, insisting anti-Covid-mandate protest is out of control. Local authorities are panicking. Of note:
“The situation at this point is completely out of control because the individuals with the protest are calling the shots,” Watson told Newstalk radio. “They have far more people than we have police officers and I’ve indicated to the chief that we have to be much more nimble and proactive when it comes to these activities.”
Before announcing the emergency, Watson pleaded with the federal government to “sit down and have some kind of a discussion, some kind of mediation to get this situation resolved because it’s now spreading across the country.”
Watson’s statements echoed an admission by Police Chief Peter Sloly on Saturday. “We do not have sufficient resources to adequately and effectively address this situation while adequately and effectively providing policing in this city,” the top cop said during a meeting with the Ottawa Police Services Board. Referring to the demonstration as a “siege,” he insisted it was “something that is different in our democracy than something I’ve ever experienced in my life.”

It seems that as of midnight last night (Feb 6 – 7), anybody supplying the truckers with fuel, propane, diesel, etc. (remember: they sleep in their cabs and cook on the street. Temps are way below zero.) will be charged by the Ottawa police under police chief Sloly’s crack down. The truckers were being urged to stock up on their fuel yesterday. This 2-minute video spells it out:
More late-night (Feb.6) activity by the police:
Some Twitter Takes
Police will be arresting anybody providing support to truckers starting Monday Feb. 7 on mischief charges / aiding and abetting:
I had the opportunity to speak with a man delivering fuel to the truckers. He gave me a rundown on his interaction with the police.

🚨FASCIST REGIME 🚨
Without a warrant or cause the Canadian Gestapo are seizing ALL FUEL (private property) from the trucker convoy in the dark of night and dead of winter.
They want their countrymen to die.

Section 8 of the Charter of Rights reads “Everyone has the right to be secure against unreasonable search or seizure.” Without a search warrant, this is just theft. Governments are used to violating our privacy now, aren’t they? And the media love it. pic.twitter.com/UOYAK6OoF8

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but taking legally purchased fuel off another person at gunpoint is armed robbery.

Ottawa’s mayor embarrassed himself yesterday
Ottawa Mayor @JimWatsonOttawa in a CTV interview called the bouncy castles and hot tubs at the trucker demonstration “disturbing”, and when this was tweeted below it went viral, attracting global derision and embarrassing our nation’s capital. https://t.co/cOGeluac3X

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
