Freedom Convoy protestors and their supporters need to come to grips with the fact that it's over. The organizers are behind bars or on very restrictive bail conditions. Finances are frozen, a few remaining holdouts are pouting in farmer's fields in Eastern Ontario and trucks that didn't comply with the order to leave will be auctioned off by the city of Ottawa. Ottawa, Windsor, Couts are all back to normal or quickly getting there.
There may be a few pop up protests here and there but the mandates are still in place, truckers still need to be vaccinated to come into Canada, Trudeau is still the Prime Minister and your dreams of a Great Awakening are shattered. All that's left are the court cases and legal bills. Hope you enjoyed yourself.

You sure like your Tiktok Cramadog. Yes there was protesting going on amongst the Bouncy castles and road hockey. There were lots of speakers there from war veterans, to doctors and scientists they even challenged Dr.Tam and anybody else that's been pushing the whole covid narrative to a debate but they didn't have the nerve to show or even video conference. Brian Peckford (the only remaining author of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms) was there he gave a speech as well as many immigrants that experienced communism firsthand in their motherland and their warning to us. There were church services daily and a ceremony at the cenotaph. Basically anyone that had something to say was given the stage to express their right to freedom of expression. There are plenty of youtube and rumble videos out there as well as FB like Dan Dicks from Free Press, Druthers, Greg Wycliffe, Jim Kerr, Kyle Cardinal. Laura lynn Tyler Thompson is my favorite hers are more "newsy" and she covered a lot of the speeches, she is a little religious but only for a couple of minutes and she doesn't swear. TikTok is good for entertainment but it only offers a short snapshot on issues and not as much info as you really need to form an opinion in my mind besides that it is controlled and owned by the CCP. What good would protesting do out in a cornfield? When you have a Beef you take it to the offender right? Protest have been held gov't buildings and sites where leaders meet since forever. These streets and buildings are owned by us the citizens. The fact that the government buildings are held in the heart of the city seems to be the root of the contentiousness here but it is our capital city of Canada and we have every right to be there.

65%? Not so sure about that.

This had nothing to do with freedom, it was a large group of White folks angry at the government for a variety of reasons.
I saw NO Asian truck drivers in the group even although they compose 50% of the drivers, I did not see one Black protester.
In fact the absence of any Black Police officers or officers of any color was very evident, I wonder why? Maybe not to inflame a very white crowd.
The only black police officer I was was a S/Sgt in a press briefing after Chief Sloly resigned and this officer was from Ottawa and was bi lingual.
So even the encampments outside Ottawa are all White folks, so what sort of protest is this really, maybe it should have been called a Canadian Values protest because it sure looks like that.

The great thing about freedom is our ability to get information from more than one source. Give it try sometime.

Many of the truckers got their trucks back not all will be taken away. The only reason a few are still locked up because they said they wouldn't stop. They could let them go and just get them again on a breach.
Also it's just the beginning as for the states side that's about to happen now they are already calling for a 1000 national guards to DC.
The convoys left this morning 11 days to Washington lol.
Funding is still strong hampered but going its not over yet despite what the media is saying .

Could you please elaborate on the freedoms and rights that need to be restored. I’m not being cheeky, I simply am trying to understand which freedoms and rights you and the “freedom convoy” are referring to.

We've already danced this dance they are mentioned further back go ahead and search them. Not being cheeky but I'm on my way out the door. With the recent enactment of the EMA though you might as well say they are all suspended look up the Canadian Bill of Rights and compare it to the Charter if you wish to figure it out for yourself. Just curious do you not talk about tis stuff with the crew you're on?
