We’ve been reporting on the amazing anti-mandate Trucker Protest that has made its way across Canada from Vancouver to Ottawa, with a trucker convoy that is about 45-miles-long. This convoy now blocks the streets in the capital. Justin Trudeau is reportedly able to beat it rather than justifying his actions.
As the Trucker Freedom Convoy arrives in Ottawa, this is what it looks like.

They brought Ottawa to an abrupt halt and said they would stay there until the mandates of the government are lifted. They brought a lot of supplies with them so that they could set up camp for the duration.

Truckers received support from many people, including Russell Brand and Elon Musk.

Even though the truckers’ actions have been completely peaceful, the government has been trying to paint the protest as potentially violent. Reuters, media and other outlets pointed out the sheer scale of it all but this was their focus.

Not only are they peaceful, as we pointed out, but they’re also even incredibly tidy, with such a massive group converging on the city. While the protesters certainly have to watch out for people trying to make the effort look bad, there hasn’t been anything that has been at all violent.
Media trying to attack the anti-mandate protesters have tried everything from suggesting that it’s going to be another ‘Jan. 6’ to claiming that the effort is somehow influenced by Russia. This little bit of mania comes from the CBC.

Despite the fact there’s no evidence of that, it hasn’t stopped the left with their conspiracies. It’s possible that they learned about American liberals their mad conspiracies. This is the tired, old fallback smear people have used over the years to denigrate President Donald Trump.
But with a convoy that’s presented a lot of newsworthy moments, perhaps one of the best was when one leftist held up a sign trying to accuse the convoy of being a “white nationalist” thing and got a response from one of the protesters.
The leftist was holding up a sign that read: “F**k ur white nationalist agenda.” She was wearing a mask that wasn’t tight around her face, but she probably thought it was virtue-signaling her COVID purity.
But then a man stepped in and finished her off, saying the protest had nothing to do with “white,” and it went beyond just truckers — it was about freedom.
Attention to graphic language
This is without a doubt the greatest moment of the day. 👇 pic.twitter.com/1QeIY3cQVE

Canada has many Sikhs, and Indigenous peoples, who work as truckers. Some of these people can be found in this fun, Twitter thread Learn more about the individuals involved.
Think about how much effort is required for white liberals and white nationalists to call them white nationists. They refuse to believe that everyone wants freedom. But some — like these folks — are willing to stand for it.
