The Freedom Convoy in Canada, has gotten very little media attention in the states. The little bit of air time they did get was of course negative, calling them racists and the usual left wing media slurs. But the Freedom Convoy didn’t end this past Sunday. It’s still going strong with at least 50,000 truckers still at Canada’s Capital City of Ottawa, all peaceful (unlike BLM). Meanwhile, Canada’s King Communist, Justin Trudeau is still in hiding at a “secure location”.
The double-pronged effort from the coalition of more than 50,000 Canadian truck drivers – which has remained largely peaceful – was spurred by recent policies implemented by Trudeau’s office that declared that by January 15, all truckers in the country who are unvaccinated must take a COVID-19 test and quarantine when driving back from the states.
Per the progressive politician’s new guidance, Canadian drivers who are not vaccinated are barred from entering the US until they have gotten the jab, while American drivers are currently not allowed into Canada unless they produce a certificate proving that they have been inoculated.
The policy comes in stark contrast to that of the nation’s neighbor the south, with American drivers returning home to the US not required to test and quarantine.
During the address, Trudeau conceded that he understood the frustrations of the Canadian people regarding the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic but asserted that some of the behavior seen at the recent protests in the nation’s capital, including swastikas, Confederate flags, and the desecrating of memorials, was unacceptable.
