I couldn’t bring myself to call this a trucker protest. I received many calls from mainstream media outlets, asking me what the protest was about. GoFundMe froze the funds for a time until it was satisfied the money would be disbursed appropriately. It also brought a lot of attention to the fundraiser and the people behind it. How dare you question the motives of the organizers? Why don’t you support the revolution? How much money did Trudeau pay you to write such drivel? Take your jab and die. Prior to that role, she was active with other far-right movements such as Wexit Alberta – a party whose founder advocated for Alberta to separate from Canada and join the Trump-led U.S. The principal fundraiser was Tamara Lich, the secretary of the federal separatist Maverick Party in Alberta. These weren’t truckers organizing a GoFundMe that at the time of that writing hadn’t yet surpassed $1 million, on the way to $8.5 million just a week later. I raised alarms early in a blog ‘ The murky matter of protests and the donations that drive them,’ when I noticed who was behind the convoy.
And by the time the convoy rolled through Ontario it had already fully morphed into something much bigger – and more dangerous – than what truckers were ever told. It wasn’t about your rights to continue crossing the border unvaccinated. By James Menzies Janu who participated in a cross-country convoy culminating in protest at Parliament Hill this weekend have been duped into believing the convoy was about them.
