Paolo Pagliaro,

Che Dio ti benedica e ti protegga durante il tuo pellegrinaggio!

I remember another Paul who went on a journey and had his life changed near Damascus…

Looks like we now know where the Canadian police stand.

Funny, the OPP were happy to sit on their hands in other cases. This went on for over a year:

Thanks Paolo.
Wishing you and the people of Italy courage in this fight.
We may be at the beginning of the end (as the expression goes)… I hope so.

I came across the following videos, which I don’t know if you’ve seen.
They are in Italian (or translated)

The Windsor bridge has been cleared out. Looks like we now know where the Canadian police stand. Eventually, this all goes to pieces unless the police refuse their orders.

Bigger question now here in the US: we’ve supported the police over the past year protesting the “defund the police” by the Ds. What if the police now turn on US citizens as the US convoy begins its journey? What do the Buffalo police do if the NY governor orders them to break up the protest there? Do we keep supporting the police if they turn on citizens?

I just learned that the insurrection in Ottawa is over: the police has caught the ringleader.

I say hello to everybody here, you are good people and this blog is one of the most interesting and intelligent I know.

God bless your country, and Canada as well.

Hello PA+Cat

Yes, Giovanni XXIII was from Sotto il Monte, a small town near Bergamo – wonderful city, btw, a jewel: go to visit it, if you come here.
I strongly believe that he would bless this priest, but he was also a very naive man who was fooled by radical progressive – and possibly soviet agents – many times.

Hello Barry, thank you very much. I’m not optimistic about my country, our democratic system is quite compromised: in the last 9 years the left has regularly lost the election but then a little crisis arises – usually caused by friction with the EU – and here it comes a “technical government” led by the PD (Partito Democratico, which is the old Communist party minus some openly Stalinist fringe) which is totally aligned with the high-class ruling elite in Bruxelles.
Recently we had the President election and, after clownish confusion, Sergio Mattarella has been re-elected. the President mandate lasts 7 years, so we are going to be stuck with this apparatchik man for 14 years. In Italy the President *was* mainly a representative role, but now he’s become decisive: it’s not like in the US, where the elected President is in charge for 4 years barring extraordinary events – here, if there’s a crisis and the running government cannot find the majority in the Parliament, then that government is over and a new one has to be put together among the elected representatives, not necessarily those who won the election. Traditionally, the President simply ratifies the new Prime minister chosen by the Parliament, but in the last years he has assumed a much more active role, conferring the authority only to those who are liked in Bruxelles, such as the current Mario Draghi, who’s the EU Banks’ man in politics. Moreover, he’s the chief of the Magistrature – also traditionally a representative role, but no more.
The (further) bad news is that both the (whole) left and (a big chunk of) the right have embraced the Scare Pandemic politics: the fear-inducing media battage has been so overwhelming and successful that it’s a political suicide to assume “ethorodox” (e.g. non apocalyptic) positions, even while many European countries are abandoning or relaxing restrictions. One big problem is that most Italians don’t have any source of information beside the national TV, which is almost as corrupted as the Canadian – in other words, their main job is suppressing unwelcome news and smearing any one who ask questions.
Of course, there’s always hope (I mean, political hope: Christian and genuinely human hope and nobility cannot be suppressed, even in a Gulag or Lager). There are a number of public figures, also on the left (eminently, the philosopher Cacciari, a very good person; or the art critic Vittorio Sgarbi, a force of nature!), who are very bravely opposing the politics of fear and I think that things will begin to change abruptly as soon as fear looses its grip. Then I expect everybody suddenly changing their position and saying: “I’ve always been critical about the GreenPass” – a very Italian turnaround, like when everybody changed from Fascist to Partisan overnight, when Mussolini got hung in Piazzale Loreto.
Sorry for the long reply. I wish you the best, God bless.

The ‘takeaway’ from this is the next time you organize a protest don’t use decent, working family people. Do what BLM does and get a lot of thugs that already have a criminal record and don’t give a sh__ if they get arrested or not. Now THESE people know how to ‘fire bomb’ their way onto the front pages to accomplish their goal.

miguel cervantes,

Trudeau is a front man. No doubt alternative standins are available.

Count on it, the rot is as deep and wide in Canada, as it is in any other Western nation.
