Police Respond to Wingham’s Call to Arms & NH’s Declaration of War #ArmYourselfNow #BrutalExecution

(Wingham, ON) North Huron council’s decision to extinguish the last embers of Canada’s freedom and democracy by removing press and public questions has been interpreted as a declaration of war on the formerly glorious and free Canada.

A restaurant in the heart of Wingham, Buck & Jo’s, is flying and selling “F*ck Paul Heffer” flags at their street corner to draw attention to Heffer’s brutal execution of democracy. The restaurant was famously in the news for standing its ground against segregation enforcement, steadfastly refusing to allow its property to be stained with segregation. Their conviction and later exoneration showed that they will sacrifice virtually everything to honor their oath of “standing on guard for thee.” “Thee” represents Canada’s ideals and values, not the politicians of the day. “You have all sung the oath; now it’s time to honor your word and save our country.”

A warning sign is still on display in Buck & Jo’s dining room: “All Charter Rights will be defended on this property; it would be wise not to test our resolve.

Former North Huron councillor Trover Seip once stated in a council meeting, “I would not pick a fight with the Movement.” This comment came after the Mayor/Reeve of the day (Bernie Bailey) called the OPP on Buck & Jo’s for flying a “F Trudeau” flag and called the owner a “hillbilly liar with no moral compass” during a council meeting.

The Corporation of North Huron has since been trying to get its bylaw enforcement officers to go after the business and silence them; however, they too have stood down and refused to break the law.

Numerous police officers from various detachments and services, along with politicians and their family members, have reached out to show their support for the Wingham Resistance and the fight for what is left of Canada.

All citizens who are going to honor their oath and defend our country are encouraged to immediately arm themselves with the truth, video cameras, and to start attending or viewing North Huron council meetings.

Next council meeting is Tuesday 03Sept2024.
