Days after tensions started simmering in the Shuswap over wildfire fighting efforts, a convoy of locals attempted to seek answers at an area roadblock.
Their arguments seems to be that the gear was just sitting there not being used when it could have been being used to protect their property so they were within their rights to take it.
Can we give them stickers to put on their trucks, ATVs, and boats so that everyone else knows that if they see them sitting somewhere not being used it’s ok to take them if you could be using them?

Excuse me, the Convoy of Truth and Freedom! /s
It was just on the CBC National that it was partly or mostly non-locals, or at least not people who live in the disaster zone, as well.
Actually we’re with the Freedom Convoy of Truth
Splitters!
(Monty Python, if anyone is OOTL)
So… we’ve got local thieves stealing firefighting equipment, and eco disaster tourists flying drones and running blockades.
Stupid really has hit a new level.
I wanna see handcuffs and cubed dodge rams.
We let this slide the last time.
I have a feeling some of these people just want to loot.

Don’t they realize that this is the definition of socialist communism?
Well, as long as they’re OK with people not like them doing it too.
No. No they don’t.
These sovereign citizen types things that they are the specialest snowflakes in the entire world.
They don’t need to gather to do that, they could just send one person off…and they don’t even need to go to the checkpoint to get that answer
But that’s the opposite of what they just claimed and would explain why they needed a group
Squinty McProudBoy’s “base” acting up again???
“Paranoid idiots interact with the RCMP!”
FTFY
So tired of these larping assholes. Stop giving them air time.
