The Greendom Convoy

RE: Bill 23 demands major protest.  Letter to the editor by Gord McNulty.  The Hamilton Spectator 10 Jan 23.

Gord McNulty is on to something.  We need to organize a protest at Queen’s Park to force the Ford government to bend to the will of the people – our people.

Queen’s Park is not a large place, and it won’t require many big rigs to surround and isolate the place.  Antifa has a large contingent in Toronto, and they will come out to protect the protest from a counter-protest by those pesky, far-right, fat-cat developers.

We can decorate the trucks with black-power flags, Extinction Rebellion flags, and I’m sure Just Stop Oil has symbols that can be waved around.  Maybe even a hammer and sickle.  The whole waterfront.

I know this sounds familiar, but we can call this protest against Bill 23 the “Greendom Convoy.”  Being left-wing we have nothing to fear about an invocation of the EA by the Trudeau government.  Justin would love to give Dougie a rueful look and say, “your turn to wear this one.”

Good thinking Gord!
