If there’s one message I’d drive home to the progressives, the politicians, the legacy media, the police and anyone else hysterical over the Freedom Convoy it is this –
It’s NOT the vaccines, stupid.
In fact, the absolute insistence on this narrative and the portrayal of the truckers as low-class, racist, misogynistic, and even toothless – as in lacking teeth, not guts – by the country’s power elite proves to me how much these critics are disconnected from the silent majority.
At risk of making progressives lose their minds even further, I would say that the great divide in this country over the Freedom Convoy is much the same as the one south of the border that led to Trump’s presidential win.
You might say the truckers in our Freedom Convoy are Canada’s version of Hillary Clinton’s “deplorables.”
The double standard is staggering. In recent years, the legacy media, snotty progressives and elitist politicians have turned a blind eye to repeated CN rail blockades, the decapitation of statues of our founding figures and all kinds of Antifa warfare.
Now, those same elites are pushing the narrative that the truckers are nothing short of treasonous. There have been endless cries for them to be criminally charged for standing up for their rights against what has been the most draconian set of lockdowns in North America – and in the case of Quebec, the Western world.
