The moment I found out our truckers across Canada were organizing a convoy for freedom, I knew right away it would spark an awakening that would eventually spread around the world. Brave truckers everywhere have proven me right. This is about something much bigger than the repressive covid restrictions we've willingly complied with up until now or the forced vaccine mandates or the vaccine passports.
This is about freedom. What is it worth? What is the cost?
As has happened many times throughout history, people have had to rise up and band together in protest to stop tyranny. Most of the time, it was bloody, but not always as when the Soviet Union collapsed. Not a shot was fired.
The Freedom Convoy is a reminder to always be on guard for freedom and liberty. Governments should not be dividing their own people as has been happening with so many other oppressive governments around the world, all acting in lock, step. If we give up an inch, they'll take two. They've been getting ready to lock us up in concentration camps disguised as Covid camps in Australia. Over in Austria, if you don't have your vaccine passport, your going to jail and you'll be charged all fees for staying in jail.
In Ottawa, the city's mayor declared a state of emergency, sending the police out to collect gas cans from the truckers, thereby possibly creating another emergency with truckers freezing in the cold. He's even mandated a by-law banning truckers from honking in the evening or they'll all get tickets. Well, that's going to keep the cops busy because the honkin' ain't stoppin'!
I doubt those tickets will get far in court. Can you imagine thousands of traffic tickets to administer? What a nightmare for the courts...
The people reacted by coming into Ottawa carrying empty jerrycans, confusing police officers. Now, they're begging people to stop bringing in empty gas cans. There are plenty of videos on the internet, thanks to BitChute and Rumble and live streamers on Youtube.
Maxime Bernier, the leader of the People's Party of Canada which had impressive results in the last election with well over 800,000 votes based on the party's agenda to end covid restrictions and minimize government over-reach, has been very vocal at the trucker protest in Ottawa. Maxime was supporting them even before they got there while all the other party leaders denounced the truckers with Trudeau going so far as to call it a 'fringe minority'.
As the world can see, it is anything but. This fringe minority amounts to 79.5% of all eligible voters in Canada who either did not vote for him or didn't vote at all in the last federal election on September 20, 2021.
Maxime Bernier released a statement at a press conference yesterday which sums it all up. Here is it, reprinted with the kind permission of the People's Party of Canada. Thank you, Maxime for defending the freedoms of our fellow Canadians and our truckers.
Statement by Maxime Bernier on the Truckers’ Convoy and the growing rift in Canadian society
Press conference, Ottawa, February 9 2022
Today I want to talk about the importance of healing the growing and dangerous rift in our society.
When a group of people feel they are being systematically disadvantaged, they can either suffer in silence, or organize to protest.
In a democratic society, legitimate protest is a safety valve. Its purpose is to alert everyone that there is a fundamental social problem to address, through peaceful means instead of violence.
Over the past years, the Prime Minister has shown understanding and support for protest by various groups, including indigenous opponents of pipelines, Black Lives Matter, and even farmers in India.
The BLM organization is run by self-described communists, and BLM demonstrations in the summer of 2020 led to rioting, arson, destruction, and physical injuries in many North American cities. And yet, Mr. Trudeau went to kneel at one such demonstration here in Ottawa. And the media covered it as a legitimate protest.
In contrast, Mr. Trudeau has been nothing but vicious and vindictive in his attacks against opponents of covid mandates and restrictions in general, and the truckers’ convoy in particular. Even though they have been entirely peaceful and non-violent.
Instead of listening to and trying to understand these Canadians, and adapt his policies to avoid creating a larger rift in our society, the Prime Minister has demonized them. Since last fall’s election, he has adopted even more repressive measures to marginalize them and crush all dissidence.
Yesterday, one of his own MPs said his government’s covid policies have become politicized and divisive, and that they unfairly stigmatize some Canadians.
As for the mainstream media, they have become nothing less than the propaganda arm of the government. I have never in all my life seen so many outright lies, distortions and disinformation in the media, especially when it comes to reporting what’s going on here in Ottawa.
A peaceful, democratic society cannot function properly without trust. Now, a large and growing minority of Canadians have lost trust in our government, in our institutions, in our media. They feel like they are being treated as enemies of society, subhumans. These people won’t be going away and won’t stop protesting.
So you in federal and provincial governments, and you in the media, have a choice. You can either double down on the demonization and repression, which will only widen the social rift and lead to further protest and chaos. Or you can de-escalate.
Covid measures are quickly being abandoned in other countries and in some provinces here in Canada.
The Prime Minister can put an end to this crisis today. He should announce that he will eliminate all mandates and restrictions. And that he will focus his efforts on working with provinces to protect the most vulnerable Canadians, while respecting everyone’s rights and freedoms.
Be a statesman Mr. Trudeau. Stop widening the rift in our society. End this crisis now.
