Wikipedia is a "useful reference". It's not always accurate and there certainly issues with bias, wikipedia can still be considered "useful reference" if sources are cited and a starting point for further research.

Am I the only one who thinks this kid forgot his lines?

Trudeau: "More PPC? Okay, why is that? Why are you PPC?" Student: "I think they're mostly Christian. I'm against the vaccine mandate."
Trudeau: "Okay, so mostly Christian? So you don't think we should be supporting muslims?"

and...

Trudeau: "You're pro-choice? No, you're not pro-choice." Student: "No, I'm pro-what's it? uh....... pro-life"

The video of this is on social media and is quite horrific. The guy who took it is an idiot, treating the stabbing almost like it was a joke, but it still shows what dangers Canadians are now facing in major cities.

You're more outraged by this than a child dying because of the vaccine?

It seems like they're not releasing specifics about the location of the "retreat" and if, where, and when he will be visiting locations in the city.

I'm guessing it will be somewhere in the Ancaster area.

So we've gone from billionaires, of which there are c. 45, to the "richest 1 per cent" of all Canadians...

Do you really believe that in a country of 38+ MILLION people, just 45 people being taxed more is going have any significant impact?

A grand total of, what, about 45 people and their families? As long as they make their money legally, help create jobs, and support charities, what's the big deal?

Yes, they could put red crosses all over, but for some enemies this means nothing, just makes them a more desirable target. I guess they're allowed to engage if their patients or their own lives are in danger, but not engage in combat. It would make sense for them to stay out of the fight because they're the ones who have to deal with everyone else getting wounded.

Since you know what a combat medic is, then you can google the term to see for yourself that they do carry weapons.

Here's an example (from the US military):

"Corpsmen and medics with combat troops carry a double burden. They do everything that Army soldiers and Marines do – although officially noncombatants, they are authorized to carry weapons to protect themselves and their patients – until a soldier or Marine gets hurt, and then they have to become lifesavers, sometimes under fire." https://www.ocregister.com/2006/08/04/medics-carry-a-double-burden/

Another article states he was a dual citizen. From what I understand Ukraine requires people who become citizens to renounce their previous citizenship within two years. He may have become a citizen in order to serve in the military so therefore would eventually have renounced his Canadian citizenship.

Not sure that he's being misrepresented as a medic. You're basing this on the fact his holding a gun in some pictures?

These kind of people migrating to Hamilton perfectly explains the last municipal election.

Not sure how many followers he used to have, if I'm not mistaken he's lost about 5000 or so.
