The Freedom Convoy 2022 movement is actively involved in Ottawa, the Nation’s capital.
Hundreds and hundreds of trucks are lined up in front of Parliament Hill and in the streets of the capital.
Bridges between Ottawa and Gatineau have been closed to prevent trucks from crossing to the other side of the Ottawa river.
The truckers are incredibly calm, they are pacifists. They will stay in Ottawa until the “Covid-19 mandates” are cancelled. The government must agree to put an end to these health measures which in fact are measures of a political nature.
While the movement is open to discussion with the federal government, Justin Trudeau , Prime Minister of Canada, has categorically refused to enter into any form of dialogue.
He is leading the country from an unknown location.

Obviously the occupation by the truckers is done in a good mood
Media Disinformation
The mainstream media (Radio-Canada, TVA, La Presse, etc.) claim that the truckers – demonstrators – show “grievance” and “anger”. Some media have even spoken of far-right, racist people, all to demonize the peace movement.
There were virtually no incidents as thousands of people gathered in the streets of the downtown Ottawa.
“Those who were looking for trouble two days ago, they are not truckers” commented a driver on February 1. The Freedom Convoy 2022 movement demands the restoration of fundamental rights which have been blatantly violated by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
The truckers’ claims are entirely legitimate. They are fed up with health checks at the border applied to both vaccinated and non-vaccinated truckers…
However, this event goes far beyond the “health” issue the vaccine “jabs” (one, two, three doses …).
Working conditions have become extremely difficult for vaccinated and non-vaccinated cross-border workers.
They denounce the obligation of truckers to get vaccinated to cross the US-Canada border effective since January 15.
But the movement goes much further: it questions the legitimacy of the Trudeau government.
Families are present among these demonstrators.
The movement is committed to the future and the protection of children.
“I came to encourage the movement because everyone is so disgusted. There is finally action and people are moving. I am here as a truck driver and also to protect our children,” explains Julie Pomerleau from Vaudreuil, Quebec. ( Le Journal de Montreal , February 3, 2022)
Teddy bears and children are also participating in this important event.
It is impressive to observe all these trucks parked in the streets, thus paralyzing a large part of the city (downtown).
The protest movement has expressed its solidarity and respect for the city of Ottawa by ensuring the disposal of waste in large garbage bags. The city of Ottawa has never been so clean.
There were no signs of hatred, racism, extremism or violence. All minorities are represented there.
Women Truckers
Recognition to all women truckers who joined the 2022 Freedom Convoy.
The woman truck driver (featured below) is making the love sign with her hand… (see also the testimony of Sancha Deable who traveled 3000 km to meet Prime Minister Justin Trudeau who remains hidden and refuses to enter into dialogue with the Freedom movement.
These women are among Canada’s trucking heroes who bring food, clothing, medicine and more every day.
Our thanks to tens of thousands of truckers who have chosen the path of freedom and peace for future generations.
Our thoughts are with you.
