Something big is happening in Canada, and it's happening in a typically Canadian way. After two years of draconian lockdowns and mandates, truckers are pushing back with a 45-mile-long convoy that pulled into Ottawa yesterday. It's exciting and inspiring. It's also drawing the elites out from cover, as they abandon any pretense of supporting the people they applauded so vigorously
The Canadians have been renowned for being an obedient, peaceable people. But perhaps we've forgotten that there's a warrior strain in them. During WWI and WWII, some of the British Empire's most ferocious fighters came from Canada. That blend of warrior and peaceful soul seems to have come together with the massive Freedom Convoy that Canadian (and some American) truckers have driven from Vancouver to Ottawa, Canada's capital.
I wrote about the convoy on Friday, along with lots of videos. It's incredibly inspiring to see these cheerful truckers driving along Canada's frozen lands, cheered on by hundreds and thousands of people wherever they go. Tucker interviewed another trucker on Friday night, and it's moving to see his good spirits and optimism as he and his fellow truckers push back against the effort to make them bow down to the technocracy for which COVID has provided a glide path.
These truckers stand for all the people in the West who have done everything their political leaders forced upon them. While the power class (politicians, media, the professoriate, billionaires, etc.) sheltered at home, these people — whether truckers, store clerks, sanitation people, bus drivers, police, or dozens of other jobs that needed to be done — bravely went out despite the fear of an unknown disease. Back then, the leaders were grateful. Indeed, Justin Trudeau couldn't say enough for truckers:

This is an actual grass roots protest movement happening before our very eyes. The Left is insanely jealous, since theirs are always fake and funded by the ultra rich that they claim to hate (at least until they need mom and dad to send money for Spring break).
It’s not just Canada anymore.
Truck convoys are going to take place all over the planet!
Shut all the rigs down for two weeks and let’s hear the liberals howl. They live in an insulated world where milk comes from the grocery store and gasoline from a pump. Truckers tie it all together. When the rigs stop the chain snaps.
Keep it up folks. This is what the global monsters fear the most.
All of us joining against them!
Hoping our truckers just don’t speak of solidarity and DO THE SAME. shut down DC
The good part is this has no real leaders thy can bully and push around to stop people.
And send a couple of thousand trucks out to Nova Scotia to test their punitive new rules.
Canadian truckers are NOT Canuckleheads!
they’re blaming the Russians!

I don’t think that those behind the scenes that are doing the manipulations understand how dangerous what they are doing is for them. history occasionally has angry peasants killing the noble class when the peasants figure out what is going on.
I’m sold that I remember when it was Americans that led the fight for freedom.
Now the French and the Canadians are far more the home of the brave than we are
I’m so old that I remember when it was Americans that led the fight for freedom.

There is one planned to DC after Ottawa.
In the meantime, it behooves the rest of us to be ready with enough food and supplies to get through this.
One does not need to be a hard core prepper, but buying a little bit extra each time you shop will gradually build a comfortable cushion against supply chain issues that we are already seeing anyways.
If rigs are shut down for a couple weeks things could get really ugly in some places (read cities) very quickly.

Great comment!
Over on Twitter they are calling it the “Flu Trux Klan” and are in hysterics because someone showed up with a confederate flag. I’m watching ABC news right now and they haven’t said a word about the convoy.
Remember Vimy Ridge!
