What Next?

In March 1965, a university friend was driving his small economy car from Vancouver to Toronto and while crossing the Great Plains and in listening to radio reports of the march from Selma to Montgomery, he turned south to participate. The 54-mile route to the state capital of Alabama was not lengthy but inspired a profound political reform. The world was fascinated by the popular uprising against not just repression of the Black vote, but absolute denial. Essentially, it was that Blacks should be able to freely vote, which as an American issue was watched by the political world.

And now, the political world has been focusing upon Canada’s “Freedom Convoy” of big trucks (aka “Semis”) that has made its way from various regions to Ottawa, the political capital. From Vancouver, the distance is 2,700 miles and some of the convoys were 40 miles long. Even the Leftist BBC headlined it as a “Freedom Convoy” and through the internet funds are being raised around the world.

Decades ago, troopers or police in Alabama tried to suppress the plea for freedom through bloodshed by beatings, whipping and gun shots. Indeed, one day goes down in history as “Bloody Sunday”. Now Prime Minister Trudeau, who heads a monolithic political system whereby there is little distinction between the Liberal Party of Canada, the government of Canada, its media and bureaucrats,  has a special condemnation for the Freedom Convoy.  Those who are striving to restore basic freedoms are condemned as a “fringe minority” and in opposing Ottawa’s dictates such folk are “unacceptable” people.

Or as Hillary Clinton described us as “deplorables”.

Despite the establishment’s scorn”, the Convoy has raised over $10 million—much more than recently raised by the political parties representing the governing classes.

In the 1960s, when Democrats dominated the Southern States there were some interesting voting statistics. Alabama’s Lowndes County was 82% Black, but not one was allowed to vote. There were 2,240 registered white voters, which added up to 118 percent of the adult white population. It was common practice to keep such voters on the list even though they may have died or moved.
