That is exactly what happened under Trump in the USA and that is the main reason he lost the election in Of course he lied about Biden cheating because he learned a long time ago that you accuse others of that which you are guilty yourself.
Our freedom to not have mandates is being taken away by those who refuse to get vaccines. We could all be immune from this virus and stop all mandates if these stubborn and irrational people just stopped being so recalcitrant. Thanks for prolonging our siege from COVID, your fellow Canadians, who are by far the majority, really appreciate you keeping us all from regaining our real freedom. A family member who i dearly love is sadly a racist as is her husband as well as being anti vaxxer I keep telling her that if she were in the UK she would be subjected to anti immigration racism because of her thick Polish accent, I have tried to talk to her until I am blue in the face.
Its no use because those beliefs are part of her identity. They love the Ottawa convoy and wish they were there. I hate the pollution they have caused with the convoy and the GHGs which will be contributing to global heating and the next heat dome for eons.
Thanks for speaking up……. Personally, that for me is one definition of fascism……. I see it in how inarticulate the truck convoy members are. But how do we create the counter movement that convinces these few to go back home, learn how our political system works, and engage as citizens instead of free floating bullies? Well, it is now Wed. Even the police said things are peaceful. People are friendly and are being approached by Ottawa residents offering food and the use of showers.
She and the camera man did leave quickly however. You are so right. The Alberta boarder being blocked is so wrong in many ways. As a senior and as a wife of a retired military personnel this makes me sick. There were trucking companies who said that unvaccinated truckers would have the trucking routes in Canada.
Hello sir, I do not know you or what you are about but I do respect your opinion and the fact you know more about the trucking industry than I do however…. I am not angry with you but rather troubled. You publish stories undermining possible motives for the convoy.
So with that being said how am I to think of your motives here. You decided to use a couple isolated incidences as the entire theme and heart of the movement and were proud to display them for thier wickedness by the way these acts you named were quickly repealed and it has been said the perpetrators were not even a part of the convoy.
How do you label everyone involved in this rally by the individual acts you stated. At worst you are labeling thousands of patriotic, loving, peaceful, honest,tax paying , hard working , caring Canadians as racists, terrorists, liars and hate mongers wreaking havoc because of these incidents.
Could you look at all the people involved in this rally and its supporters in the eye and call them these things.
Do you really believe the millions of people now beside this rally are such and if so how could you be so blind. Have you been watching anything but mainstream media? Check out the Facebook groups and see the stories being told by people all over Canada and the world stemming from this convoy. These are real people with lives and families and a desire to be heard and have their lives back.
This is bigger than the truckers, you are right. This many people dont lie about the same thing. This many people coming together are all insane and extreme and hate mongers. How about writing a story about how Trudeau has abused ,slandered , defamed, promoted hate and discriminated against his own citizens on national television.
Why is this okay? What is his history of dealings in business and other? He runs the country and his past is way more checkered than most.
How do you justify that? Check out the support from all over the world. If you only want to degrade the situation and do harm to it… you are unfortunately one of the reasons why we have to have this movement to begin with. The world needs to change for the better of all…. Your right…. Thats bigger than all of us and boy does this world need some unity these days.
Thank you for your time. I wish you well. James, Wow that is the most uninformed journalism I have ever read. So disappointing.. You need to recognize it yourself. You are part of the majority who has been deceived by mainstream media for years now. You are a liar and should stop publishing this crap shame on you because you fully know that this is misinformation.
I dont even believe you are real. Bidens mandates already got demolished by the Supreme Court. The CDC just put out a memo that says studies show no difference in covid fatalities in states or countries locked down and shutdown vs those who kept open.
I think you are scared of people standing up against people like yourself. Please pack your bags and head to the nearest communist controlled country. We prefer freedom. We prefer informed non gullible people here in the u.
Isaac Aurelius??? What kind of name is that? If you had actually READ Marcus Aurelius, you would advocate for stoicism, and for responsible citizens to take the vaccines. You would also know the difference between democracy and tyranny, which followers of Trump like you clearly do not.
Furthermore, if you had actually read the Hebrew Testament in which Isaac is featured, you would know godly citizens were so happy to receive the Law of God from Isaac via the prophet Nehemiah that they were crying tears of joy. Laws do not equal communism, idiot. Everyone knows the U. This is about one thing and one thong only…removing mandates. And as for the unruly behaviour as you so eloquently put it…is nothing more than provocateur trying to disrupt the peaceful protest.
My fathercand the men and women of his generation fought and died for our freedoms. Our freedom for free speech, to vote, to cross borders freely, to an education, to employment and much more. You need to wake up and take your blinders off and get in touch with reality. Very well written. To all the people saying to do your research, go do your own research. Better still go watch how excited he was to let the cat out of the bag about the convoy rolling to Ottawa. Listen to him go down memory lane about the last convoy that him and James Bauder Canada Unity participated in.
Long before Tamara Lich came on the scene, these two clowns were already pumped up on adrenaline from the sheer knowledge that they had an opportunity to go back and do it all again. The same day that Pat King decided to make his big announcement, the federal government had announced that truck drivers crossing the border would be exempt. Mind you that decision was either reversed or was an error, But at the moment that Pat King makes his announcement, he did not know that.
So how did his anticipated joy ride across the country, have anything to do with truckers. In one video, he says we are coming for you fancy socks, we are coming Ottawa, we are going to lock down your city. Of course that particular video filled with colourful language seems to have disappeared but there are many more. Many of you seem to think that isolated incidents such as the Terry Fox one, the disrespect for the unknown soldier and the Confederate and Swastika flags are the acts of bad apples who are ruining it for the convoy and their supporters.
But what about all the images of people wearing the Canadian Flag like a super- hero cape, wrapping them selves in it like a blanket, dragging it on the ground behind their bumpers, or tattered and torn on the grills of their trucks? But the most disturbing images of all, are those of our national flag hanging upside down. Seriously when you hang our flag upside down for the whole world to see, WHO are you signaling to come help?
Be careful what you wish for. True to a point. A few BAD apples, who I am sure were not truck drivers , tried to make a disturbance. And changes need to be made in the trucking industry. Considering the protests are peaceful and being pegged by people who are misrepresenting this movement by the actions of a few. Great article of fiction. You should be ashamed to publish it actually. Call it the Karen Konvoy.
Nothing to do with freedom, unless you delusionally think freedom is blockading a capital city, or blockading the border to a country. The goal is the removal of all Covid measures to protect the population, and the overthrow of the government. The organizers have, if we can put it mildly a tainted past. This is an anti-mask, anti-vaxx protest, little to do with the real truckers that are continuing to do the job.
That it was about truckers losing their jobs is a lie. There is a shortage of truckers across Canada and they could easily find work hauling inside Canada. The prime organizer of the gofundme is a western separatist that wanted to separate western Canada and join Trumps USA. That she found support from truckers with similar views is not surprising, being cut off from travelling to the country to our south where they spend half their lives.
Not being able to work heading south into warmer country is a great hardship. Note there is no reciprocal protest on the other side, no great trucker convoy to Washington, and why is that? What kind of stupid article is this; written by a commie. People like James Menzies are nothing short of a commie.
The communists are those who started the propaganda about the vaccine and losing our freedom. It is idiots like you that will be the death of freedom. Wake up already! Interview any of the police and they will tell you! Unlike the BLM riots last Summer! They are protesting thru peace, love and kindness! Country after country is starting to do their freedom rallies as well!
This is a great thing! I suggest you all stop your BS about losing your damn freedom!!! You obviously know nothing. It is you that are the sheep.
Learn the difference between propaganda and truth before opening that pouting little mouth of yours!!! Yes, in case you do not know how to read between the lines which I truly believe you are incapable of I am now at the end of my wits with all of you criers. Number one: as far as the covid vaccines go, yes, that is how you spell vaccine not vaxine, science has developed immensely over the years. My lifetime only, we went from learning from books, actually books, where we had to turn pages by hand, to the computers of today.
By the way I am only 61 years of age. None of you and I mean none of you know the meaning of freedom. This is how stupid you all are.
If and I mean if you win this fight, you will all be cowering in a corner because those who started these lies are the very same ones that will actually take all our freedoms away and the disappearance of races will occur. Already there are way too many of you that forgot God, the Creator, Allah, no matter what you call Him, exists and that is how the beginning of losing yourselves start.
All this propaganda about losing our freedom is beginning to only divide us, it is beginning to destroy family. I know cause I cried all night because lost my precious son to all this garbage. I would like to thank you James for your enlightenment on this very important subject. I have a great respect for the farmer and the trucker. Which brings me to one more thing… You sheep cry about losing freedom because of a little jab in the arm…Well what about the freedom to have a meal, the freedom to even afford a meal?
How about the freedom to go to the hospital without having the fear catching the covid with all the covid patients in there? What about the freedom to see loved ones no it is not the government that toke it away, it is you fearmongering jackasses. Thank you freedom loving Canadian truckers! Thank you for writing something, that makes me sad for the truckers that need to be working and not be caught up, in other politically charged anti vaccination protest group craziness. Which it totally is at this point.
They have been used…. This is a great report and I agree with you. Granted, many of the participants not just truckers think it is a great time to party and feel they are not alone in their frustration. They may not realize it, but all of Canada is frustrated and sick and tired of the restrictions. Their call for freedom from anything and whatever resonates with all of us EXCEPT most of us realize that having freedom means members of society must accept responsibility for one another, too.
Keeping Covid active by disregarding proven means of defeating it is not accepting that responsibility. Obviously you support the mandates and not freedom, you make it clear.
The reason why provinces were it mandates in place is because the federal gave them cash incentives to do so and the reason Biden put a cross border mandate is because of a meeting he had with Trudeau. You hit it on the head. Marathon is a town on lake superior of a mere people, the rally stopped there and the place has been torn in half.
All of a sudden they have peop,e joining in spouting stuff about pizza gate and soros, and seriously verbally going after others. It was pretty scarry thix last weekend. And thats just one tiny place now posting up PPC logos and before it a Was a quiet idyllic part retirement community with a we mine going in….
Yeah James, the truckers are just too stupid. Put the keyboard down and go tell them how they are just pawns. This is definitely not about truckers. What I believe we need to do now is redirect this protest into something that will give every Canadian the ability to be heard.
Not everybody can take the time to go protest for days or weeks. However if we have the legal right to refuse our federal ballots every Canadian could choose to be counted as declining their ballot every federal election.
We could then protest peacefully quietly and privately every election if the government remains broken. We need a way to push for a different system.
I think the right to refuse your federal ballot would be a valuable tool in fighting for a functioning governing body. Unfortunately you are might be correct in your analysis. This has morphed into something else and it could get ugly before this is resolved. I agree, our hardworking Canadian truck drivers have been duped in a big way.
Unfortunately for them they bought it hook, line and sinker. And sink they will. The fund organizer is unknown to most Canadians , which begs the question of how you can trust that same person.
Research shows that person has a dubious past. As I write this, I am sure there has been no driver s to receive any part of that fund and so far there has been no distribution plan forwarded to GoFundMe.
Drivers are out of pocket and now they have to get back home and quite possibly find a new job that allows them to stay on the northern side of the border. James Menzies has written an excellent piece. I shudder at the misplaced negative responses; they seem mostly trite and illogical.
Thank you for your clear measured reporting giving true support and information to truckers out here. Maybe the issues important to truckers will have a chance to be presented in a focusd, effective, sane way in the future. I certainly hope so. Thanks for clearing the air on this.
As far as truckers, the U. School kids HAVE to get vaccines for numerous diseases. Truckers participating in the demonstration never thought it was about them You sound like a leftist propagandist. To the truckers who are vaccinated and currently making our economy run thank you! To the individuals who are ruining our economy who call themselves truckers…. This freedom convoy is nothing more then far right supporters using truckers as a lightening rod trying to get their views across.
Clear the damn Coutts border crossing or arrest these individuals who are holding back our economy. I am a trucker and support the vaccine mandates if it gets us out of this pandemic and keeps my family and neighbours safe. Very well said. The only thing I would add is that questions about the GoFundMe donations should be asked. Is any of that money coming from far right groups in the U.
That definitely needs to be answered. I think this post is inaccurate. There are problems in Canada. And change is needed. This has given Canadians a voice. The unknown intentions of a backer, are not the intentions of those who are out there right now. Why they are out there is no secret, their agenda and voices are speaking for their cause. People have rallied because Canada is in terrible trouble. Our government leadership is nowhere to be seen, and refuses to address the issue head on.
All that we as Canadians get to see, is terrorist commentary and an absent PM. We are bombarded with endless propaganda from our PM. Show a little critical thinking.
They managed to motivate thousands of truckers and millions of Canadians into action. Their secret agenda is what was lost, and the people have a voice for it. How much of that was sponsored by the frauds? And how much is sponsored by Canadians?
Boy do you sound bitter. How dare people disagree with the government and the bought and paid for health dictators. Everytime the public saw light at the end of the covid tunnel the goalposts were moved. The mandates are not about public health it is about control government controlling our chioces our freedoms and our bodies.
You do not speak for Canadians you speak for special interests. That is over, but I still can drive. How long I am not sure. Many of us have lost our freedoms. I did my research. What I find very disturbing is!
But yesterday I saw a post about blocking the border in Alberta. I agree that it is not a legitimate truckers convoy. I am not a trucker, but any trucker I have met I have liked. What a world we live in. You never know who is pulling the strings. Thanks for this. Ron MacInnis Canning, N. Thank you James for pulling back the curtain on these occupations.
It is an awful thing to watch. Truckers are the backbone of our economy. These taliban truckers are nothing more than delusional terrorists who want what they want because they want it.
They do not care in the slightest who they harm by their illegal blockades. They are completely self-serving and self-entitled. Their mask-less blockade parties are super spreader events that will result in even greater overloading of our health services and hospitals with Covid 19 patients.
Their vicious attacks on Canadians will result in even less access to hospitals by those needing heart, joint, an other needed surgeries, resulting in much needless and pointless suffering. They are NOT supported by the trucking industry nor the vast majority of truckers. Our front-line healthcare workers are exhausted by the pandemic and they care nothing about them.
The whole Country is getting behind the convoy. Where do you get such crap from. Do you make it up or is Trudeau paying you. Thank you so much for putting into words what so many of us are feeling.
We love and support the truckers. Teachers, students, parents. The organizers of the protest have VERY dubious motives. They want Alberta to secede. They thrive on divisiveness and chaos. Their strongest desire is to see infighting amongst Canadians. We have to stand up to them. Continue supporting our truckers and all of our frontline workers. But stop the divisiveness. We Canadians are at our best when we pull together.
Seriously, you have no idea. Take the mask. It can not work. Have you ever cut concrete? If you wear one of those masks you will die from dust. And it s supposed to protect you and others from a virus?
Such plain nonsense. Now the same people that claim that also tell us to get vaccinated. If they lie about the mask, why would I believe them about the vaccine?

From an access-to-information request , emails between the National Capital Commission and Ottawa Police Services revealed that law enforcement overall was hampered by poor communication, disagreement on approaches and tactics, and confusion over jurisdiction. Active investigations are underway for a number of widely publicized incidents including those related to the Unknown Soldier’s memorial and the Terry Fox statue as well as for more general incidents, including bribery, threats, assault, dangerous driving, and setting a fire in a building.
Chief Sloly warned offenders that if they had come from elsewhere and committed a crime, including hate crime in Ottawa, there have been “intelligence officers, investigative officers, and multi-jurisdictional support” from across Canada at work in the background. He said, that “no matter where you live, no matter where your vehicles are registered You will be investigated We will look for you.
We will charge you, if necessary, will arrest you, and we will pursue prosecutions against you. On February 7, some two dozen arrests were made, and nearly 80 criminal investigations had begun. On March 21, a year-old Ottawa man unrelated to the protest was charged in connection with the fire. Many protesters ignored the agreement. The lawsuit went to court on the afternoon of February 5 and a hearing was adjourned to February 7. EST on February 7.
Union and Happy Goat Coffee were added as plaintiffs. Paul Champ is the lawyer for the plaintiffs, residents of downtown Ottawa. The injunction freezes convoy donations which could eventually be redistributed to residents who are including in the suit. Justin Trudeau , the Prime Minister of Canada , dismissed the supply chain disruption concerns as unfounded on the basis that most Canadian truckers have been vaccinated.
We won’t cave to those who engage in vandalism, or dishonour the memory of our veterans. Omar Alghabra , the Minister of Transport , said on January 31, that since January 15 when the truck drivers’ vaccine mandate came into effect, the traffic volumes of transport trucks crossing the Canada-US border had not decreased. Compared to the fall of , and based on Statistics Canada ‘s most recent figures, even with a “massive snowstorm, even though it was a U.
Erin O’Toole , Leader of the Official Opposition and the Conservative Party as the convoys started, initially declined to support the protest, saying instead that the best way to maintain supply chains is for truckers to get vaccinated. Conservative MPs Candice Bergen , [] Andrew Scheer , [] Garnett Genuis , [] Pierre Poilievre , [] [] Martin Shields , [] Warren Steinley , Jeremy Patzer , [] [] and Leslyn Lewis [] [] all expressed their support for the convoy and truckers’ movement, although some, such as Poilievre, denounced individual protesters who were promoting extremism.
A person in behind Cooper had an upside-down Canadian flag with a swastika ; Cooper says that he was unaware. On February 10, as a third border blockade began in Manitoba, the Conservatives reversed their position supporting the border blockades. Bergen called for the blockades to disperse, “for the sake of the economy”, but vowed to continue pushing the governing Liberals to release a clear plan for ending COVID restrictions. During debate on the Emergencies Act , Conservative Members of Parliament dismissed the convoy; deputy whip Lianne Rood called it joyful, and compared it to Canada Day.
The People’s Party organized a rally in Waterloo on January 23 supporting the convoy, at which Bernier and Hillier both spoke. Although repeatedly encouraging vaccination, Moe argued that it would only reduce the chance of severe outcomes, and did not prevent infection or transmission of COVID—a statement that was subsequently disputed—and for that reason he did not support the cross-border vaccine mandate, and would lift proof of vaccination requirements in Saskatchewan “in the not too-distant future”.
Members of Parliament reported an increase in inappropriate and threatening calls to their offices, in correlation with the protests. That is unacceptable. Facebook stated that they had removed fake users that were set up in overseas content farms , in Romania , Vietnam , and Bangladesh , which were promoting the convoy protests in Canada. After this announcement, New York Democratic Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney questioned Facebook as to the number of the accounts, when they were identified and how many impressions they had on US and Canadian users, comparing it to Russian interference in the US elections.
After Ottawa was cleared, conservative commentator Candace Owens called for American troops to be sent to Canada “to deal with the tyrannical reign of Justin Trudeau Castro. In their February 7 statement, Teamsters Canada , representing more than 55, professional drivers, including approximately 15, long-haul truck drivers, of whom 90 per cent are vaccinated, said that the protest “serves to delegitimize the real concerns of most truck drivers today”.
The statement said that the convoy and “the despicable display of hate led by the political right and shamefully encouraged by elected conservative politicians does not reflect the values of Teamsters Canada.
On January 25, the Canadian Trucking Alliance CTA , a truckers’ trade association , and the federal government issued a formal statement reinforcing the use of vaccinations, along with other public health measures, to protect Canadian health care and to reduce COVID risk. In the statement the CTA and the government committed to working together to respond to supply chain constraints. CTA members can express their disagreement with government policies by holding an “organized, lawful event on Parliament Hill”.
Stephen Laskowski, CTA president said the trucking industry “must adapt and comply with this mandate”. The Private Motor Truck Council of Canada noted concern about the convoy’s “racist remarks”, citing the comparisons to Nazis and communism.
The Canadian Labour Congress called the protest in Ottawa “an occupation by an angry mob trying to disguise itself as a peaceful protest”. Various trucking companies have tried to distance themselves from the convoys, claiming that the vehicles are owner-operated, despite featuring their logos. But perhaps even instigating it from, from the outset”. According to Local Journalism Initiative, ethnic media outlets exhibited a variety of reporting and reactions to the protests.
Additionally, reporting noted that “most Punjabi truckers are vaccinated, as vaccine coverage in the Punjabi community is high. Their priorities are around road safety, snow clearance, road maintenance, as well as working conditions and wage theft. Rich Lowry of Politico argued that “The embrace of the Canadian trucker protesters by the American right is a sign that the Tea Party spirit circa the early Obama years was never fully extinguished.
Since then, everything has changed — most importantly, the rise of Donald Trump and his movement — and nothing has changed. It is freedom that remains the most natural and powerful Republican rallying cry. Canadian scholar Peter McLaren criticized the convoy protesters’ “concept of freedom” as “sorely lacking in dialectical analysis. McLaren also argued that their concept of freedom “is historically linked to settler colonialism, that is, a form of colonialism grounded in exogenous domination, a form of colonialism that seeks to displace the original population of the colonized territory with new groups of settlers who typically justify such colonization through an identification with imperial authority.
General Wayne Eyre , Canada’s Chief of the Defence Staff , said he was “sickened to see protesters dance on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and desecrate the National War Memorial “, after video of such events surfaced online January In late January , Elon Musk tweeted “Canadian truckers rule” and followed it up with “If you scare people enough, they will demand removal of freedom.
This is the path to tyranny. The tweet was later deleted. The Auschwitz Memorial also condemned Musk’s tweet. Barry Prentice, transportation economy professor at University of Manitoba , stated that the truckers should be treated differently than flight crews or passenger-train employees, and that the positive aspects of vaccine mandates should be evaluated against the disruptions they would cause to the freight industry.
Brand also said in the video that “Truckers, who were previously regarded as heroes when they were delivering vital goods and working during the lockdown, are now villains as they protest vaccine mandates”. Former President of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadenijad , praised the protests, tweeting “violent crackdown on FreedomConvoy has nothing to do with freedom of speech and human rights. Great Barrington Declaration co-author Martin Kulldorff tweeted in support of the protests.
According to the Washington Examiner , psychologist and conservative commentator Jordan Peterson offered a “message of congratulations and caution” to the convoy. The Terry Fox Foundation condemned the defacing of Fox’s statue with anti-mandate signs. The Royal Canadian Legion called protesters dancing on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier “shocking” and “strongly condemn[ed]” their actions.
The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms provides legal support of the convoy and its contacts with media. On February 12, Facebook removed anti-vaccine, pro-convoy Facebook groups that were run from Vietnam, Bangladesh, and Romania. Singer and activist Bill Fries, whose song ” Convoy ” recorded under his alias C.
McCall was used as a rallying cry for the movement, gave his implicit approval for the use of the song in that manner, and was pleased that the movement had caused an uptick in interest in the song, in the final interview he gave before he died.
Durham Regional Police Service Constable Erin Howard, who made a video while in uniform in her squad car supporting the protesters and later posted it online in January, was suspended and faced six charges under the Police Services Act , including discreditable conduct and insubordination. Her first court hearing was held over Zoom on May 5, , with the proceeding then being adjourned until June Some members of the political left were initially hesitant to criticize the convoy because “the truckers were often described as a working-class movement”.
In a Abacus Data survey of 1, Canadian adults, undertaken before the protest turned into an occupation, between January 31 and February 2, , 68 per cent stated that they “had very little in common” with the demonstrators and their ideology and 32 per cent of respondents stated that they “had a lot in common” with the protestors and their worldview.
Furthermore, 43 per cent of respondents stated that they felt the protest was “respectful and appropriate”, while 57 per cent viewed it as “offensive and inappropriate”. A study by Vox Pop Labs among a randomly pre-selected sample of 2, respondents, conducted between January 4 and 10, , found that around 70 per cent of Canadians were willing to support a general vaccine mandate for all non-exempt adults over the age of 18, while around 30 per cent disagreed.
On its subsequent questionnaire, a further 65 per cent expressed the belief that the convoy represented “a small minority of selfish Canadians,” 57 per cent viewed it as “not about vaccine mandates and pandemic restrictions” but rather “an opportunity for right wing supremacist groups to rally and voice their frustrations about society,” and 52 per cent likened it to the United States Capitol attack. Opposition to the convoy was highest among respondents living in urban areas, those vaccinated for COVID, and those aged 55 and up; while support for the convoy was highest among the unvaccinated, respondents aged 18 to 54, and respondents living in Alberta.
A poll by Maru Public Opinion found that 64 per cent of Canadians polled would support the aid of the Canadian Armed Forces to tow trucks from the protests and 53 per cent of Canadians polled would support the use of force by Ottawa Police to clear out Ottawa protesters. An Angus Reid Institute poll released on February 14 found that 72 per cent of Canadians polled thought that it was time for protesters to “go home, they have made their point. A Nanos Research poll commissioned by CTV News and released on February 25 found that 51 per cent of Canadians polled thought the protests were ineffective, 15 per cent thought they were somewhat ineffective, 20 per cent thought they were somewhat effective, 12 per cent thought they were effective, and 2 per cent were unsure of the protests’ impact.
The poll also found that 44 per cent of Americans opposed the convoy protests, while 40 per cent supported them. Among Republicans, 71 per cent supported the convoy protests, compared to 18 per cent of Democrats. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
