This photo gallery shows the situation on the ground in Ottawa. It's the well-financed
Free-Dumb Fascists versus the heavily armed police. This may not be quite the attention
that the protesters wanted.

1. A lot of those protestors are from the USA . ..

RWers in the USA are trying to overthrow the Canadian government.

6. If so, I expect very very few of them...

will be allowed to enter Canada again.

That would kinda suck when your job was to drive a truck into Canada.

8. The main organizers were Nazis and White Supremacists

The reporting out of Canada as this thing kicked off was crystal clear. Their goal was to overthrow Canada’s government and install a junta to drag the country to the right. In the beginning the truckers flew Trump, Nazi and white supremacist flags. It was only after the overwhelming negative response that they switched to Canadian flags. Then the useful idiots showed up…

13. How did they get into Canada W/O

being Vaxxed?

2. And in a few days, the US will have its own "Freedom Convoy"

American Truckers' 'Freedom' Convoy to D.C. to Launch February 23, Organizers Say https://www.newsweek.com/peoples-convoy-american-truckers-dc-start-february-23-covid-1680566

California truckers tired of COVID mandates are expected to join a "Freedom" convoy to Washington D.C. next week.

Organizers say the American truckers' protest, dubbed "The People's Convoy," will depart on Interstate 40 heading east from Barstow on February 23.

Truckers headed toward the nation's capital are demanding an end to the Emergency Powers Act concerning the pandemic, and to "restore our nation's constitution."

Maureen Steele, the national organizer of the effort, told Newsmax that some 1,000 trucks are expected to start the trip and more will join in as the convoy heads east.

And they'll "slow roll" through towns on the way, to allow people to give them donations and toss rose petals in their path.

7. Prediction: That thousand truck convoy will be 20-ish pickups

Those losers are mostly unemployed bozos who lost their jobs because they are not vaccinated. Real 18 wheelers can't afford to protest for bullshit they don't believe in. They are on the road driving loads.

10. This is the rehersal for the slow motion Jan 6th remake

They're doing the exact same thing in Wellington New Zealand and some of the tow truck companies reported they were getting death threats from overseas numbers if they cooperated with police to move the cars.

12. I wish they would explain, "restore our nation's constitution."

Idiots, each and every one of them.

14. TY for that report.. I hope

the DC Police are Gearing UP!

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

3. About fuckin time they crack down on those muthatruckers...

and time for those right-wing fascists to start their rigs back up, go home and get the fuck back to work!! Biden needs to send a strong warning to American truckers to not even THINK of tryin that same bullshit move here in the U.S.

4. We live in an age

when people have so many amazing options and THIS is how these people choose to spend their valuable time. It was never going to end well.

If they truly want to make a difference, volunteer at a homeless shelter, foster abandoned pets, become a Big Brother/Sister, help your less fortunate neighbors, etc. This protest is just a huge vanity display that was never going accomplish anything of value, but now many of the protesters' lives will be ruined.

5. not too sure you would want any of those people anywhere near

animals, children, the elderly or any animals or humans you care about.

[PatSeg]

9. Well that is true,

but I was safe in suggesting it, as they will never do it. They only care about making a difference for themselves.
