Canada convoy protest culminates in Calgary

After making its way through parts of Canada, the freedom convoy 2022 has made its final stop in Calgary. This protest, aimed at bringing attention to various issues including freedom of speech and expression, has drawn a lot of support from Canadians across the country. While there have been some incidents along the way, organizers say that the overall response has been positive. They are hopeful that this momentum will continue to build as they move forward.

On October 21, 2018, Canadians launched what they call the freedom convoy 2022. The goal is to bring attention to freedom of speech and expression, which have been longstanding concerns in Canada but have taken on a new urgency in the wake of an ongoing culture war. The convoy is currently making its way across the country.

The convoy made its first stop in Toronto on October 25, where it drew a crowd of nearly 3,000 protestors who were eager to lend their support. During that rally and subsequent rallies, protestors were heard chanting, “We’re not going quietly!” and “Protest is not a crime!”

The protests have been peaceful so far, but there have been some incidents. Some protestors have stopped at various locations along the route, including Parliament Hill in Ottawa and the Canadian Broadcast Corporation headquarters in Toronto, staged sit-ins. In response to those events, police have closed streets and begun making arrests.

Convoy organizers have been on the road for over a week

Since last Wednesday, Convoy organizers have been on the road rallying support for their cause. For over a week, they have traveled throughout the Midwest, making stops in major cities to spread their message and drum up support. Their efforts have not gone unnoticed, as the convoy has gained increasing media attention in recent days. In spite of this attention, some people remain critical of the convoy and its goals. Supporters of the convoy insist that their message is one of peace and unity. They hope to show the country that there is another way forward – a way that does not involve violence or hatred. Stay tuned to find out more about this movement and its impact on America’s future.

Justin Trudeau’s heavy-handed crackdown against peaceful protesters in Canada is not the action of a Western Democracy, but that of an authoritarian regime like Venezuela… 1/3 https://t.co/vT74lCgOZh
