The elites' morally obscene response to the Canadian trucker convoy

Something big is happening in Canada, and it's happening in a typically Canadian way. After two years of draconian lockdowns and mandates, truckers are pushing back with a 45-mile-long convoy that pulled into Ottawa yesterday. It's exciting and inspiring. It's also drawing the elites out from cover, as they abandon any pretense of supporting the people they applauded so vigorously almost two years ago when they hid in their offices while "the little people" kept the world working.

Now, though, the truckers are getting in the way of the grand plans that the politicians, media types, professors, and billionaires have hatched. The Great Reset, about which leftists, including Trudeau, have been open, requires that every person be tracked and controlled via technology. COVID and vaccine madness provided the perfect way to do that, with many people — mostly from the same class as those pushing the Reset — voluntarily handing over their freedoms.

Cheer on the truckers; remember that the Gdansk shipyard workers started the chain of events that led to the Soviet Union's collapse; and think of uplifting, peaceful ways for Americans to do something as wonderful as those Canadian truckers are doing.

Canadian Mark Steyn calls the truckers' protest "the most inspiring story around the world at the moment."


Very good Mark Steyn video in this piece. 3 minutes of honesty.

When a head of lettuce costs $12 good luck to ya all.
Let them eat cake..
Carry on....
We do Cabbage soup now and then, I'll pay the 12 dollars provided the trucker gets the lions share. No problem. It will come out to be 50 dollars for the lettuce and god only knows how much for the rest of the fixings. But we get a few days worth of eating out of the big crock.

Truckers are settled in around the Government Buildings. More coming by morning.

It would be interesting to see how long Ottawa will tolerate their entire street system wall to wall in trucks with zero traffic for a week or more.

I understand other industries like Farming are getting into convoys as well and moving east.

Can you imagine the Feds going ballistic if the Capitol Streets in DC were stuffed in big rigs?

They are actually assembling and getting ready to convoy to DC as I write this.

We make it with Cole slaw mix. It’s excellent!

Canada prepares for anti-Covid-mandate trucker protest

National security forces and intelligence professionals have been roped in to augment police ranks as the Freedom Convoy reaches Ottawa


He told the public broadcaster that “boundaries” would be drawn between free speech and risks to public safety, adding that the convoy was “not about freedom” and “certainly not about truckers.” Among the signs of extremism Mendicino pointed to were protesters allegedly equating vaccine mandates with (⊙▃⊙) policies, displaying US Confederate flags, and inciting the violent overthrow of the government.

Media's handling of trucker convoy one-sided, inflammatory, shameful
Can we really be shocked that public trust in the media continues to fall?


Run for your lives, the barbarians are at the gates!

That pretty much sums up the reaction of most in the Canadian media to the trucker convoy that has been winding its way across the country for the last week before descending upon Ottawa on Saturday.

Mainstream media fearful of protesters, oh my


It seems the mainstream media stands accused of winding up the rhetoric in the massive cross-country truckers’ rally to Ottawa, as well as vilifying the protesters.
The word “*****,” say MPs in a Blacklock’s Reporter article, was used to describe some factions within the protest.

The media, of course, has no one to blame but themselves.

One cannot throw such negative descriptions at protesters in general without expecting some push back from the angrier ones in the convoy.

And it’s not just Trudeau’s vaccine mandate for truckers, which could throw a wrench into cross-border trucking, that has protesters angered but the government as a whole — for the carbon tax at the pumps, for ramped-up inflation, for increased taxation, and for a deficit and a debt that is now $1.1 trillion.

The country, itself, is angry

You really wish you could make this up but you can’t they are that far out of touch with reality


Canada State Media Suggests Russia is Behind Truckers For Freedom Convoy – Yes, Really – (VIDEO

CBC News, a Canadian state-sponsored media outlet, baselessly claimed that RUSSIA is the criminal mastermind behind the massive truckers for freedom convoy.



The spin machine is in full gear.

In a brilliantly woven monologue [Transcript Here], Neil Oliver weaves the story of our recent humanity against the scale of the universe before returning to a line of lights in Canada that traverses the landscape; what has become known globally as the Freedom Convoy.

Within our current condition, it is good to note our place in this thing we call life, and as Neil Oliver eloquently states, to reflect on the one odyssey that really matters – our connection to each other. WATCH:

…” every once in a while, I envy the jobs of others. All week now I have been wishing with all of my heart that I was a trucker. In Canada. Thundering towards Ottawa. What a grand adventure – so grand I don’t know whether to cheer or cry about it.”… Each of us has the chance and the choice to make an honest stand. I stand with that family on the move, and with those Canadian pilgrims in their trucks.
