The ‘freedom convoy’ against vaccine mandates shows Canadians won’t give up their freedoms without a fight.
Canadian truckers have driven into the heart of the political debate over Canada’s vaccine mandates.
A 70 kilometre-long ‘freedom convoy’ travelled from Vancouver to the Canadian capital, Ottawa, last week, to protest a vaccine mandate for truckers crossing the US-Canada border. An estimated 10,000 protesters then converged at Parliament Hill in Ottawa over the weekend, and pledged not to leave until the vaccine mandate is revoked. The mandate was implemented by prime minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government earlier this month.
