In Canada going for a walk in the woods gets you a $28k fine, but actually setting 30 fires is 200 hours of community service. (twitter.com)

As with the convoy trials, defying the government in any manner is the gravest crime you can commit in canada.

We are so far passed being a serious country.

The craziest part, this dude is white and somehow got a slap on the wrist. Then again, if you commit the right crimes a slap is probably expected.

He was doing his job. Why would they punish him?

Was it one of those "burn the forest down to save the environment" type of loons?

Think the lack of any real punishment speaks to yes, yes it was

The fires he set were furthering the narrative of ''the planet is burning because you have a car, now live in the Pod, eat the Bugs and stay within your 15 minutes city block''.

How white are we talking? Sometimes they can be tricky white and not really white.

All about control.

I would say control and seeing how much people are willing to put up with, but I would think the last 6 years or so would have shown them that Canadians accept nearly anything. I guess there was the trucker blockade.

George Soros realising that the judicial system was the real money ball way to destroy societies is something that people have barely even noticed let alone formed a response too.

In prison they beat the everloving shit out of child molesters.

I think the same standard needs to be held for arsonists.

It's always the firefighters.

Actually? It's usually the eco-greenies. But yes an inordinate % of firefighters turn to arson.

In Greece a few years back? A really bad fire season had some 80% started by arson. Of the people caught setting them? 80% of those were "undocumented migrants" who had been paid to start a fire at a specific spot at a specific time.

It was never about the trees.

In 2023, a fire in Nova Scotia was "the largest ever" and was "caused by climate change". Liberal Party Politicians stood & said this as an irrefutable fact in Parliament!
Of course it turned out to be a leftist arsonist who got convicted for starting it.

And that's what this is based on: people cannot be trusted to walk in the woods, so Covid-19.84 lockdowns are needed!
Police the forests and arrest the arsonists? HECK NO!

Fun Bonus Facts: 2020 saw the lowest Canadian fire season in 100+ years of keeping records. That year the eco-greenies were being Karens and not out setting fires. Sheer coincidence I'm sure.
Also: it's a natural cycle: every low year is followed 2-3 years later by 2-3 higher years. A documented cycle that's gone on for 100+ years. But THIS TIME it's 100% Climate Change! 😜

so, the logical way of handling this is to start setting things on fire if you see you're about to get caught for taking a walk.
