    Pick your poison. None of the US network or cable channels are mentioning the story. YouTube has video the day of the strike early before the results could be seen. Facebook nothing. There are a number of video sharing sites where people from down under can upload and I'm seeing a few things leaking out from there. What the network news in Australia is reporting is a nationwide manhunt and contact tracing for 3 truck drivers who tested positive for covid within the last week. Yes, the Australian government is trying to defeat covid by incarcerating everybody who gets it, or comes in contact with somebody who has it.



    Here's what you can find on other sites out off the reach of the censors.

    We aren't far off from a worldwide civil war at this rate.

    I got caught up in a march of morons by the royal alex that day. Trying to get to the hospital school with a load of special ed kids.
    That sure got me behind their cause.
    Good thing I don't have a herd bumper and herd immunity.

    I don't know of anyone at the Royal Alex protest, just the ones in BC.

    Didn't know they were holding things up there, from the sounds of it the half a dozen I knew at the one in BC said everyone kept clear of the entrances and stayed on the sidewalks.

    As it should be. Peaceful protest is fine. Clogging hospital access, screwing with everyone's day and acting like selfish overbearing nitwits is not. I suspected you were reffering to the bc ones. I don't understand or agree with anybody forcing anyone to do anything. I'm vaxxed, my choice.
    I have a autoimmune disease that has damaged my lungs. None of these so called lockdowns really affected me. It closely resembled daily life.

    There is something very nefarious and dark happening regarding forced vaxx. In Canada it is has become an election issue with 1 party wanting mandatory vaxx for a wide range of people, pointing fingers at the other party who is wanting people vaxxed but will not mandate it.
    I have freinds and family who won't speak because of opposite views.
    I have a freind in heathcare that will be leaving the feild as they have mandated all heathcare workers must be vaxxed.

    At the end of the day the death rate from this virus to most is low. There are people that have risk factors in their lives that encourage them to do what they must.
    The whole world needs to sit back, and look at what we are becoming.

    They reported to me that the pro-mandate crowd were kind of dicks though.

    2+2 isn't adding up to 4 and I agree there's something screwy going on with the whole situation.

    My thoughts are we are being hoodwinked. Whoever did/is doing this is winning, without firing a shot, because we are letting them.
    So much misinformation everywhere, I've tuned it all out, carrying on, and protecting all that is dear to me.

    Of course they are dicks. That has become the norm.
    The mandate crowd has certainly taken the bait. As are most (karens and chads) that lean that way.
