In the video, he calls himself a sovereign citizen, which is a group of people who believe they are immune to the government’s law and order.

The driver had been pulled over by police for driving without insurance and for having licence plates not issued by ICBC.

    His problem was he didn’t speak the incantations just right.

    These sov cits are so close with their spells, they just haven’t gotten the words just right yet.

    Keep trying.

      See, that’s his problem. He should have claimed to be a Freeman on the Land, and referenced the Magna Carta.

      Or invoke Her Majesty, Queen Roman Dildo Romana Didulo I of Canada. Totally would have worked! Give it a try guy, and post the results online!

      Well, it’s not THEIR second amendment if it’s not THEIR country. Plus, it’s Canada anyways, we don’t have such craziness as a second amendment.

      In any case, this was an enjoyable watch. I wish there’d been more of his rant shown.

        Canada has amendments, the second one is generally seen as Prince Rupert joining the confederation.

          Rupert’s Land (named after Prince Rupert). Not that I want to infringe on the first amendment (creation of Manitoba IIRC).

          Although the city of Prince Rupert is pretty damp and dreary…

    As much as these people are annoying and ignorant assholes, they’re also victims of fraudsters who pretend to know the secrets of living an easier life through secret magical knowledge of “the law”. They sell this bullshit in seminars where people are paying $500 to $1000 a seat.
