I remember studying Voltaire in university and wondering how any civil society could ever have considered constraining free speech to be a good idea. images.app.goo.gl/PzkgBvsKtdME2i…
Please share, far and wide. How is it possible that in 2025, one of Canada’s five federally chartered banks can unilaterally decide to close your accounts—without warning, without explanation, and without any form of due process? Banking is not a luxury. It’s not a perk or an…
Well, I wasn’t expecting this, @RBC. Welcome to Canada, where tyranny has great customer service.

WOAH. Chris Barber's defence lawyer LAID DOWN THE LAW in her opening statements. She brought up numerous examples of mischief cases from the G20 where disguised offenders with bad intentions rioted and caused millions in damages – causing people to fear for their lives – but not…
1/ POLITICAL PROSECUTION: It's the first day of what is sure to be a multiple day sentencing hearing for convicted mischief makers and Freedom Convoy trucker protest organizers Tamara Lich and Chris Barber. Follow this thread for my typical detailed reporting from inside the…
QUESTION: If the courts in Ottawa decide to fully persecute Chris and Tamara for their peaceful role in the Freedom Convoy, all while letting rapists and child pornography holders go free to protect immigration status, what message does that send to Canadians and the world?
A judge has demanded to see records from @TD_Canada and the @rcmpgrcpolice regarding the 2022 freezing of the bank accounts of a Freedom Convoy participant. kamloopsbcnow.com/news/news/Nati…
Reminders from 2022: 🇨🇦Truckers Convoy inspired the world Millions around the world had paid homage to 🇨🇦flag & started their own truckers/farmers convoy (throughout Europe, US, Brazil, Israel, Australia, NZ etc): forcing many European countries to end covid mandates/lockdowns
Today Sweden & Switzerland announced they are joining Norway, Finland, England, Ireland, Denmark et al in ending all Covid restrictions. Millions inspired by 🇨🇦Canada’s trucker/tractor convoy: Brazil, Italy, Australia, Netherlands & growing! #HonkHonk @JustinTrudeau @fordnation
My thoughts are with Tamara Lich and Chris Barber. They stood up to power, and now that power is determined to keep them down. But the truth is, they have awakened something in the hearts of many Canadians that cannot be put back to sleep. No matter the outcome of their trial,…
We are at a critical crossroads indeed. The right to peaceful protest and assembly is not a privilege; it is a fundamental freedom. It is how people hold power to account when other avenues fail. And yes, it can be uncomfortable. It brings tension, it challenges the status quo,…
“The environment minister does not want to scrap the mandate— that was made very clear to us, and that is extremely problematic for the industry. That cannot be off the table. It is the most effective and fastest way to address this current problem." nationalpost.com/news/politics/…
The confidence of Canadians in the justice system hangs in the balance with the outcome for @LichTamara and @ChrisBarber1975. Their sentences for advising truckers to park and honk illegally will be overshadowed by recent rulings allowing horrific offenders to walk free.
@LichTamara you not only have Pierre’s support and understanding, but you also have it from MILLIONS of Conservatives across Canada. Good luck Tamara. But know whatever the outcome here, we have your back 🙏❤️🙏
2) This is the timeline of events the media showed, but beneath these timlines something was happening few ever even heard about, coming up next!
3) A key figure that is almost always goes unmentioned by the Liberal Party, who worked as a mediator between the various governments and the Convoy leaders. 𝐃𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐡.
4) How and why Dean French got involved in this entire matter. He was contacted by former Premier and last signatory of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms of Canadians, the Honorable Brian Peckford.
5) What was done? Who were all the key players and how they had reached a mutual agreement with Ottawa. He details the respectful interactions and sensible tone he shared with @LichTamara who was willing to maintain the peace. The Liberals... Not so much!
6) Dean describes how the Convoy organizers acted in good faith with the city of Ottawa and mayor Jim Watson to move trucks from residential areas as part of the agreement. He says all they wanted (The Convoy Leaders) was a peaceful resolution, but the Liberals had other plans!
7) An agreement was achieved in good faith with Ottawa, but it seemed Justin Trudeau had other plans. They were unwilling to wait for 3 days to move the trucks. Instead the Liberals simply wouldn't meet with peaceful protestors and were itching to invoke emergency measures!
Anyone remember - Gerry Charlebois A 78-year-old man who was arrested & fined $118 by Ottawa police which as you can see enjoyed the excessive use of force on this small elderly man Oh and the crime? A SINGLE HONK The Officer said, that HONKING a horn is ILLEGAL in Canada! (I…
8) A Black Mark in Canadian History! Dean details how the Justin Trudeau, acted in bad faith and essentially incited this protest by breaking interprovincial laws for travel, and rather than owning the mistake, they opted to villify Tamara and everyone involved!
