My take on the so-called freedom convoy:
Confederate flags
Swastikas
Trump Banners
Don't tread on me banners
Upside down Canadian flags
Swarming the following places unmasked and unvaccinated:
McDonalds
Rideau Mall
The soup kitchen
This bears repeating:
The soup kitchen
Defiling the Terry Fox statue, prompting a news release from the foundation reminding people that Terry was about SCIENCE.
Dancing, drinking, smoking, parking and yelling profanity on the Tomb of The Unknown Soldier. Prompting Veterans Affairs to release a statement.
Throwing a beer can at a reporter
Berating hotel staff
Trucks constantly idling
Horns going 24/7
Blocking fire lanes
Blocking emergency lanes
Trapping people in their homes with no way to get to work or to the hospital
Dressing their 3-5 year old children in Fuck Trudeau clothes and draping them in signs
Putting everyone they come into contact with at risk. EVERYONE.
Conservative MP's passing out coffee and doughnuts, doing interviews in front of the Canadian flag with a swastika drawn on it.
Urinating in public
Calling the PM a coward when he had to get his family somewhere safe. His Kids!
Failing to understand that mandates are PROVINCIAL and not FEDERAL.
The US doesn't want your unvaccinated asses there either.
The candle light vigil planned for the fifth anniversary of the Quebec Mosque shootings cancelled.
I remember them here:
Ibrahima Barry
Mamadou Tanou Barry
Khaled Belkacemi
Aboubaker Thabti
Abdelkrim Hassane
Azzedine Soufiane
RISP
The Maverick Party
The proud boys
The obfuscating,
Saying that these fringe elements all glommed on and perverted your mission.
I call BULLSHIT, we can all Google who started this and see the call to action and the dog whistle.
You are fighting for my freedoms!?
Yeah, I don't think so. If you were fighting for my freedoms you'd wear a mask and get a prick instead of being one.
This isn't a TRUCKER convoy you make up a small 10 to 15%.
If you really want to end this you'd take PPE and Rapid Tests and donate the bloated Go Fund Me scam for respirators and hiring more staff to give our health care workers a break.
To sum up, you are the problem. No one likes to wear masks or have shots but we pull up our adulting pants and do what's required for the greater good. For our families, for your families.
I fervently hope that when you do finally get home and stop holding the good citizens of Ottawa hostage that you don't infect your Granny or your Mum.
