Greg Olear’s guest on the Prevail podcast is Mark Bourrie, a reporter in Ottawa for 27 years. He’s very entertaining and well-versed in Canadian nuttery. Good discussion about truckers and everything.

It appears the truckers didn't make it to the Super Bowl, so the game is still on! From the few videos I've seen on the twitters, there are a few dozen protestors by the entrance with antivax signs and a guy with a bullhorn yelling stuff at the attendees filing past them.

They hacked https://www.givesendgo.com so that it redirects to https://givesendgone.wtf

They also hacked their account list.

I downloaded both the list and the video if anyone wants them after the hack goes away.

edit: it looks like the fixed teh redirect already.

Here's a twitter thread.

Police have cleared and arrested the remaining protesters near the busiest US-Canadian border crossing, ending a demonstration against COVID-19 restrictions that has hurt the economy of both nations.

Key points:
Canadian protesters have been disruptive in the capital Ottawa and at borders with the US, railing against COVID-19 vaccine mandates and restrictions
The Ambassador Bridge between Detroit and Windsor is responsible for a quarter of all trade between the US and Canada
There has been frustration with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and police over the ongoing protests
The crackdown came as authorities held back from clearing a larger protest in the Canadian capital, Ottawa

Local and national police have formed a joint command centre in Ottawa, where protests have paralysed the CBD, infuriated residents — who are fed up with police inaction — and turned up the pressure on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

The protests have reverberated across the country and beyond, with similar convoys in Australia, France, New Zealand and the Netherlands.

The US Department of Homeland Security has warned that truck convoys may be in the works in the United States.

Police in Windsor, Canada, said about 12 people were peacefully arrested and seven vehicles were towed just after dawn near the Ambassador Bridge that links their city — and numerous Canadian automotive plants — with Detroit.

Apparently counter-protesters stopped a bunch of them and made them give up their flags, fuel cans, and take off their bumper stickers and decals before they let them go.

Here's the 1st minute of the video they had on the hacked givesendgone.wtf

Thanks for the video, it's clearer to read on Twitter direct than in the embed. The WTF site is gone.

GiveSendGo is down again as of midnight ET and the graphic/forward is even more hardcore now. Have a screenshot but it's far too nasty. It alternates between the forward and this 404. Birther level graphics over there.


More on apparently ongoing security issues at GSG from Daily Dot:

Now, the journalistic collective DDoSecrets says it’s obtained files the site failed to secure, even after being alerted to the problem. On Tuesday, TechCrunch reported that a security researcher had discovered an unsecured Amazon S3 bucket containing over 50 gigabytes of data. Files in the data cache included everything from scans of passports to drivers’ licenses.

Who is funding the #FreedomConvoy?
If the leak of @FreedomConvoy donations data from @GiveSendGo is accurate....
The majority of donors to the #FreedomConvoy -- 55% -- are American, which is more than the number of Canadian donors -- 39%.

Well _that _ didn’t take long…

GiveSendGo is a Christian site. Is this a 'hate crime'?

So, anybody want a copy of the list?

Here's the full video on Vimeo, the Anonymous account posted it and they have a lot more info on their Twitter feed, including US gov't names that donated. That's nuts, using official emails to donate. It has a photo of nasa and doj folks along with their comments. https://twitter.com/YourAnonNews/with_replies

I haven't been following current events lately, for a variety of stupid reasons, but I assume that these truckers were successful in that all vaccine mandates are removed in Canada and they stopped vaccinating people entirely? Or was it all just a lot of noise generated by morons?

It was a lot of noise created by The Russians.

From the communist CBC

Trudeau plans to invoke the never before used Emergencies Act. It replaced The War Measures Act.

Maybe they'll get serious now.

Right-wing "Christians" hate good internet security. It gets in the way of their porn watching.

The Christian crowdfunding site that helped raise $8.7 million for the anti-vax “freedom convoy” in Canada was hacked on Sunday night, and the names and personal details of over 92,000 donors were leaked online.

The database of 92,845 donors is no longer available on the site, but VICE News was able to review a copy of the data.

While some of the donors did not provide their names—such as the person behind the current top donation of $215,000—the vast majority did provide them, including American software billionaire Thomas Siebel, who donated $90,000 to the “freedom convoy.”

I smell the unwashed hands of Bannon in all this mess. I’m pretty sure it was Bannon who introduced the notion of creating economic and social chaos to DFO.
