    The Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines, both of which are mRNA vaccines and use a different method to protect against the virus, have not been linked to blood clots at this time.

        Cleanup crews replace protesters in downtown Ottawa as heavy police presence remains


        Police working to ensure 'nobody returns to occupy our streets again,' says Interim Ottawa police Chief


        The snowy streets of downtown Ottawa near Parliament Hill will likely remain off-limits to vehicles for the near future as Ottawa police say they're working to ensure no further protesters return.

        Police officers and City of Ottawa cleanup crews are the few people who remain in front of Parliament Hill on Wellington Street, where thousands of demonstrators rallying against COVID-19 mandates occupied the streets for more than three weeks, terrorizing some residents.

        "We are deeply committed to the community healing that we know now needs to take place," interim Ottawa police Chief Steve Bell said at a news conference Sunday afternoon.

        Over next several days, Bell said police will figure out how to maintain a presence in the downtown core "to make sure that nobody returns to occupy our streets again."

        Dozens of commercial, passenger vehicles seized, towed

        By Sunday afternoon, police announced they had made 191 arrests and laid 389 charges against 103 people.
        The charges include obstructing police, disobeying a court order, mischief, assault, possessing a weapon and assaulting a police officer.

        Bell said in one instance, a protester tried to take an officer's Taser.

        Eighty-nine people arrested had been released on bail conditions that include being prohibited from going within a certain area of the protests. Others were released without any conditions.

        Police also towed 79 vehicles related to the protest. The vehicles include heavy trucks, pickup trucks and cars.
        Twelve Ontario licence plates and 24 out-of-province plates have also been seized, said Chris Harkins, deputy commissioner for the Ontario Provincial Police.

        Harkins said Sunday that the Ministry of Transportation had also taken action against 36 commercial vehicles. Thirteen of those were registered in Ontario, he said, with the others registered outside the province.

        Police said vehicles will be impounded for seven days, but Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson said Saturday he would like the impounded vehicles to be sold to help the city recover the costs of the occupation.

        Watson told CBC News that the city has the power to do so from the Emergencies Act, which was invoked by the federal government last week.


        Top convoy organizers charged

        On Sunday, police announced various charges against Tyson George Billings, 44, from High Prairie, Alta. He's facing one count each of mischief, counselling to commit mischief, counselling to disobey a court order, obstructing police and counselling to obstruct police.

        Three top convoy organizers are all facing similar charges, including western separatist Tamara Lich, Saskatchewan trucker Chris Barber and Alberta resident Pat King. Former RCMP officer Daniel Bulford was also arrested late last week.

        The organizers are some of those named in a proposed class-action lawsuit seeking $306 million that has been expanded to include a wider geographic area, as well as workers and businesses.

          Fox’s Neil Cavuto said a second case of Covid-19 nearly killed him


          Neil Cavuto, an immunocompromised Fox anchor who has dissented from the loudest voices at the right-wing network and spoken out in favor of Covid-19 vaccines, revealed on Monday that he had been hospitalized for weeks with a serious case of coronavirus and nearly died.

          Cavuto, who is vaccinated, had previously contracted the virus in October. But the anchor, a cancer survivor who has been public about his decades-long battle with multiple sclerosis, had a more mild case back then.

          This time, Cavuto said he had a “far, far more serious strand” because his “very compromised immune system” simply hasn’t benefited in the same way from the vaccines as those with healthy immune systems.

          Cavuto said that his most recent case of Covid-19 had led to pneumonia and landed him “in intensive care for quite a while.”

          “It was really touch and go,” Cavuto said on his Fox Business show on Monday after a leave of absence. “Some of you who’ve wanted to put me out of my misery darn near got what you wished for! So sorry to disappoint you!”

          Cavuto used the opportunity to once again praise the life-saving Covid-19 vaccines.

          “Let me be clear: Doctors say had I not been vaccinated at all, I wouldn’t be here,” Cavuto said.

          Cavuto added, “This was scary. How scary? I’m talking, ‘Ponderosa suddenly out of the prime rib in the middle of the buffet line scary!’ That’s how scary.”

          While Cavuto has been vocal in his support for vaccines, many of his colleagues have for months trafficked in anti-vaccine rhetoric. Tucker Carlson, who is the highest-rated host on the channel, has stoked fear about vaccines and peddled false conspiracy theories about them.

                Cavuto is an endangered species on fox. He is close to the last anchor with any integrity left.

                    So? That doesn't mean he doesn't have integrity. Integrity isn't party specific. It just means he isn't afraid to call out either left or right. Unlike most everybody else at that network, or the amigos here.

                      You're the one afraid to call out Trudeau's commie power grab. You're scared he'll arrest you and seize your bank account and it will be legal under the Emergency Power Act.

                        And you live in constant fear. It's obvious in the above statement.
                        BTW. I have called out trudeau 100% more than you have called out donny boy. Why are you so afraid?

                          The Emergency Power Act was really intended for Canada if it was at war.

                            Oh, I know. And seizing bank accounts was meant to cut off funding for terrorist groups. What Trudeau is doing is breathtaking and dangerous. And probably criminal.

                              The Emergency Act was approved into law yesterday with bi-partisan support and will last for 30 days.

                              13 people who were part of a far right militia group with a significant weapons cache were arrested. They are accused of planning a violent confrontation with police and and plotting to over throw the Canadian gov't.

                              The Emergency Act gave the police the needed resources to break up the protests and give the residents and businesses of downtown Ottawa the ability to live in a peaceful environment.

                              The Freedom Convoy's protest against vaccination passports will be moot as many provinces are now dropping that requirement as hospitalizations drop across Canada. The protesters message eventually turned into a general grievance against the gov't.

                              The Prime Minister stated today that he expects to cancel the Emergency Act within a few days.
