  1. The public speaking angrily and with a harsh tongue too and about who they see as vile, ignorant, anti-nationhood, anti-traditional values and corrupted politicians is nothing new.

    FFS grow a thicker skin you pansy assed mostly progressive (NOT) Liberal, NDP and Green politicians or get out of the political kitchen if it’s too hot for you pansies… In fact why don’t Freeland, Trudeau and Singh (just to start a hopeful trend among you degenerates and enemies of the people) all hold hands and take a long walk off a short pier, or better yet a leap of your Marxist-elitist faith from the top of the CN Tower, YOU REPROBATES!
