I doubt there were millions in Ottawa, but I wasn’t there.

Simple.
You are the one who is attacking this protest and attempting to delegitimize it, so the onus is on you to define what you mean and why you have a problem with it.
Are you saying you hate truck drivers? You don't support the working class? You think all these people are violent? You want them fined or jailed? You agree with QR code passports and other non-scientific mandates?
Yeah cause if I show up to a party and there are two clear Nazis there I don't wait around to ask everyone else if they are a Nazi I just quietly leave because I don't want to associate with Nazis or anyone who is comfortable doing so.
I support truck drivers, my father is a long haul truckers. Guess where he is right now? Out trucking. Delivering goods to places so people can have items in stock. By George he is even double vaccinated. I'm a former member of the armed forces and work in a factory. I have literally signed up to die for what I believe in. I was not asked to make that sacrifice but I signed on the line and was ready to make it.
Hard to have millions of Canadians come whe portions of them are being told they are not welcome either through action or inaction.

I was, there were not. Estimates put it around 10 000 and that seems on par. Canada Day gets busier.

My issue is with the execution of the protests. The organizer is a guy named Pat King.
OK ya a little off topic let's forget all that was given you an example of the narrative and the media.
So. You don't like the organizer so you find a few minor faults among thousands of peaceful protesters?
Lots of good coming out way more good things are happening and it's getting ignored .
Why did so many police walk by all this swastika stuff ?
Just listened to cbc and it's incredible how everyone blames the convoy.
Oh the divide.
So many fully vaccinated there and the pm disrespected each and everyone them . Outch

And what is it that you believe in cause I'm sure millions if not billions around the world have "literally signed up"?

The continuation of our democratically governed country. A place where people from all around the world can come to and make life for themselves. Our system has flaws and doesn't always work correctly but overall it works quite well. We have low rates of violence in our country and generally speaking our quality of life is top notch. Part of keep the country safe is having a professional military ready to do what the public asks of them.
Thank you for trying cast shade on my dedication to our country though. It's always refreshing to have someone question your intentions. And yes,I would gladly die to insure you have the right to question them.

It's not a few minor faults, it's assaulting ambulances and threatening to gang rape women. Maybe you don't have a mother so that last one doesn't bother you any?
What "good" is coming out of this?
The police are taking a different approach to this then police forces normally do. By that I mean they aren't getting getting dressed up as Roman's locking shields and lock stepping their way through downtown. Time will tell if the American/Toronto method is better or the soft handed Ottawa approach is better.
I don't know if Pat King so I can't say that I don't like him although I highly suspect I wouldn't given what I do know about him, but I keep an open mind. Maybe the guy is wicked fun at the bar I dunno.
The organization and execution of the event are what I dislike. 8 million dollars raised through go fund me and they can't afford port a potties or fuel? Where did all those foreign investment dollars come from? Surely there are no foreign powers who contribute to destabilization in North America, right?
People are quick to talk about propaganda and media control but fail to see the bad actors on both sides.
