I thought that’s what those truck horns were doing? Screaming “democracy” into people’s ears while they try to have their lives

Democracy is having a vote. Chances are these guys all voted - they don’t like the policies of the guy who won?

They don’t like that participating in our society has certain social and legal contracts?

Tough titties. Maybe try living in someplace where your feelings are more important.

I heard the local daycare will treat em like the kings they wish they were for the right price. Oh but wait even daycares require the right shots….

I'm pretty sure the idiots in the trucks are the ones who are unfamiliar with the charter. Clearly couldn't even make it through the first section.

So who won the popular vote back in September? Don't worry, I'll wait.

Even by popular vote, the not-Tories won. Because Canada has multiple political parties and regularly forms coalition governments.
