Please include that two of four men arrested at the couts border were fully aquited of any charges except improperly storing firearms. No conspiracy to murder a peace officer any longer. 207.102.61.194 (talk) 04:00, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. The citations at 2022 alleged plot to kill Coutts RCMP officers say the charges were dropped as part of a plea deal, this is very different from an acquittal. Jamedeus (talk) 04:29, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Federal Court Ruling

Why dont they go into how the federal court of canada declared the use illegal and a break of our charter rights. Or the fact there was international support? This is such a one sided view its pathetic. Do better. 107.179.238.108 (talk) 16:09, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Estimates of up to $6 billion cost to the economy?

This is misinformation. What did they do with the freight, destroy it? No it was redirected. Pure lies. 2607:FEA8:7C9C:9680:29C0:B380:567F:6D3F (talk) 20:38, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not an expert but sitting around not delivering said freight would probably cost money to the companies waiting for it as they can't sell what they intended on time nor produce what they intended on time thus costing them money, plus it's an estimate by a source like you can disagree with it but it's just a quote. 2601:406:8480:7940:9987:554B:AE8D:CB2C (talk) 16:43, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Per cent

The usage of per cent as opposed to percent or the % symbol seems strange to me; I don't know if there's a specific rule about this but reading it feels wrong to me. 2601:406:8480:7940:9987:554B:AE8D:CB2C (talk) 16:46, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Per cent is British and percent is US. Masterhatch (talk) 17:17, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
