My apologies to anyone who tried to comment on this column at first but couldn't. I accidentally hit the "comments from paid subscribers only" button when I published it. It's fixed now, I think. It wasn't intentional. I am just really tired, and getting sloppy. All my columns are non-paywalled and open to comments from everyone. Or they should be. If one isn't, that means I screwed up. Please feel free to let me know when I screw up.

I was so pleased to hear your news yesterday. My joy was compounded when also learning that Canada’s Emergency Act declaration and orders, used to break up the Truckers/Freedom Convoy protest, were judged to be ultra vires, unjustified, unreasonable and unconstitutional. Doubleplusgood!

The awakening of truth and freedom must continue.

What a splendid statement, CJ! I'm relieved that you've come through this so far, and I pray that your acquittal will stand. Blessings on your courage and clarity, and blessings on your time of rest!!

And after your eloquent statement the judge slaps on a mask? Wow. It's truly dumbfounding. I'm so sorry you've been put through this. For what it's worth you have my absolute respect and sincere gratitude.

👏👏👏 STANDING OVATION!!!

I know how much you’ve suffered these past eight months, CJ, but you’ve alchemized that suffering into one of the finest and most important speeches decrying totalitarianism I’ve ever read, and to do so in the context of a judicial court in this farce of a case adds an exquisitely triumphant finale to this drama. This may be your best play yet. This was the theater of life, and you delivered a speech worthy of going down in history alongside Thoreau’s “On Civil Disobedience.”

Bravo, CJ, and enjoy a well-deserved rest!

Not only is it a happy ending, but your statement is literally brilliant. Looking to republish it on Brownstone since you have given permission. Thanks for fighting this fight to the unexpectedly marvelous end.

Well done CJ. A very well written speech. Complete and exhaustive but neither replete nor exhausting. Take a well earned breather and come back to us refreshed and ready for further fun and games as the show goes on. Congratulations.

No, you are not a Nazi but if" never again is now" which Vera Sharav has clearly evidenced in her documentary series, then the comparison must be made without reservation; what actually must be emphatically said is that the holocaust never ended and what we have been subjected to today is a continuation of the same mind-sets that made the holocaust possible: elitist tyrannical governments, belief in eugenics and population control, the false faith in fake medical science to achieve power and control while making the masses expendable. etc. none of these themes are new but what is new is that the new generation of nefarious actors aim for a world-wide holocaust where the human species itself is expendable; in that sense we have already surpassed Nazi Germany on a global scale!

Exceptional statement to the court!

The court gave the only moral ruling.

Congratulations on a fight well fought!

Damn! Think I got some dust in my eye while reading that last bit.

Excellent statement, and congratulations (for now). Garbage like what the German government has been doing these last few years is exactly why AfD has been rising in popularity, and rightly so. May the Good Germans decrease, and AfD increase.
