This is Trudeau’s speech approx 8 hours ago. It is the definition of gaslighting. Spoken alternately in French and in English, it lasts about 10 minutes with q’s and a’s afterward. (You can speed it up by clicking on the 3 vertical dots at the top of the video and then clicking on playback speed. You can also add English captions.) The comments are uniformly negative.

Late to the party, again!*
I think one of the reasons the Canadian trucker convoy has grabbed people’s attention is because this particular group can exert real pressure. They can actually shut things down. We saw a little of this with the pilot push back and the support they got and how fast the airlines back tracked.
At this point I think people’s support for the truckers will have staying power and tolerate some actual inconvenience. It’s not like we haven’t been inconvenienced the last two years. The perception is that they are doing this for all of us. I think they are.
One interesting side note is this may shift some of the uncritical acceptance of the ‘green’ hatred of the transportation industry to a more realistic view of how the modern world really works.

Viva Frei has been livestreaming from Ottawa the last few hours and it is very inspiring. Just talking to the people.

@ Eva – thanks for the tip. I wasn’t familiar with the protocol at CFP.
Appreciate the updates from everyone. It will be interesting if Canada provides the tipping point for ending the Covid tyrannies.

Maybe on your browser? When I click on the link, it displays the tweet with a little arrow on the picture. When I click on the arrow the spokesman for the Sikh Freedom Alliance gives a short speech of support.
BTW on TikTok there’s several folks posting almost 24 hour coverage of the rally. They stop for sleep. That’s it.

The post Eva linked had an interesting exchange in the comments, which I reproduce here, in substance, for its entertainment value.

I sat next to a Sikh gentleman on an airplane, coming back from my son’s boot camp ceremony. He was dressed in traditional garb and as the plane began to taxi down the runway, his phone rang. Every person on that plane turned to look and you could see the terror on their faces. I was next to him so I heard him tell his wife that he would be home soon. I felt calmer hearing that and as we flew and began talking, I learned what a wonderful, America loving man this man was. If the indoctrinated left had half the patriotism as this man, this country would be much better off.

I know several of them, and all of them are patriots. They are a fascinating people and I’m proud to have them as part of our American family.

When the enemy muslims and ccp attack across the Indian frontier more often than not the Sikh regiments are in the vanguard of the defenders.
And for good reason, think Texans in turbans. ?

As a matter of fact, we were headed back home to Texas. He WAS a Texan in a turban.
