Organized Bigotry in Orléans? Probably.

[dewline]

Two anger-inducing things I encountered this morning while out for my walk:

1) the school board candidate profiled by AntiHate.ca as a Problematic person has her first campaign signs up, one of them at a prominent intersection near me.

2) At that intersection, I passed a person who greeted me with that now-infamous "white power" hand gesture along with more innocuous words.

Right here in Orléans, east of downtown Ottawa.

I know of the Convoy Crowd encampments at St. Brigid's in Lowertown and the Bikers' Church in Vanier. Where are they gathering here, unwatched, in Orléans? How do we make them understand that they've worn out their welcome?

Hmm, it's interesting that they get to have encampments but homeless people can't?

Definitely not equitable.

It would be really interesting to see if the bylaw could be enforced on them and their property treated the way homeless people's property is treated. If someone called the cops for example.
