Canadian protest against the COVID-19/Vaccine/Mandation for truckers. |
The Freedom Convoy 2022 is an ongoing protest conducted by truck drivers in Canada against COVID-19/Vaccine/Mandation.
The convoy may have set a world record, as it’s estimated that 50,000 trucks have joined with it[1]
They have been demonised by Justin Trudeau.[2] Canadian corporate media has been downplaying the extent of this convoy, and when covering it, focusing on a few points: defacing a statue, stealing food from the homeless, a maksed man with a Nazi flag (in corporate media sliding in to plural flags, and not showing how the crowd rejects him).
A GoFundMe account was started for the Freedom Convoy, rapidly raising over $9 million US dollars, mostly from Canada, but also from the rest of the world. Then GoFundMe froze the money, stating that the convoy was unlawful, and that the funds would be given to charities of GoFundMe's choice. The corporation backtracked after the Florida state government said it would investigate the company for fraud.
