Rynor: Ottawa Canada Day Protest — This is Not a Love Letter

This is how many of us are watching your "protest of freedom".

This is not a love letter ...

• Spit a woman in a pink T-shirt on a police officer's face, spit out nasty names, bad words, and let you and your friends paralyze downtown Otawa in the past. Prevented Weekends: Go home and obviously spend a fair amount of time and resources to find something better. Can you volunteer at a food bank or a women's shelter? Would you like to walk your neighbor's dog? Some of your friends appear to be politically blind, deaf, and stupid. Would you please host a study group and read the Canadian Constitution together? A tutorial on the meaning of democracy is useful and probably surprising to you.

• To the policeman who slammed a pink T-shirt against a straight jacket and certainly resisted the urge to put her in the corner because of her time-out: her crazy respect.

• To a young brown-skinned couple trying to return their rental bike to Chateau Lorier: just afraid of the prospect of walking in the midst of this angry confrontation It looked like there was. very sorry. Also, keep in mind that people wearing underwear with the Canadian flag on different parts of their bodies were not part of a licensed Canada Day festival.

• To the hundreds of people who stood in a lineup comparable to Pearson International's clearing practices to meet one of your leaders: sorry, line up to meet a nearby confederation park Some of the true prophets of our time at the International Jazz Festival, one of the most prestigious music events of the year, which no one said could have been. I hope your savior was worth the wait for anything that bit you, swallowed, and regurgitated.

• To jazz festival musicians and performers: Thank you. You were shining. Transport; God.

• To all Canadian veterans: Sorry, our Senotaf has become a meeting, photography and political platform for petite and petite people.

• To the citizens of Otawa: I don't want to know what this latest effort has brought to you to prevent the occupants from running wild in our city. Just add it to a tab that is already estimated to be in the millions of dollars.

• You are right for my friends and neighbors who want the media to stop giving these people ink and broadcast time. I'll try. But it was a long career running towards the wreckage of the train, the Inferno, and the sideshow. Next time, yes, next time, this fleet will roll into the town, so it may not be easy to take a different look.
