(LifeSiteNews) – After two years of some of the harshest lockdowns and restrictions in the world, Canadians are rejecting the COVID restrictions and are now rallying around truckers who are convoying in a massive protest.
Despite bitter sub-zero temperatures, the truckers convoy was joined by local citizens in Pembroke, Ontario who prayed the Rosary in solidarity and expressed complete support for lifting COVID restrictions.
Trudeau equates Canadian truckers at Freedom Convoy protest to Nazis, racists
Trudeau said that ‘freedom of expression, assembly and association are cornerstones of democracy, but Nazi symbolism, racist imagery … are not.’
OTTAWA, Ontario (LifeSiteNews) – Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau broke his silence on the trucker convoy on Monday with a press conference, claiming the freedom movement was tarnished by Nazi and racist sympathies.
Tens of thousands of Canadians fighting against vaccine mandates, along with thousands of trucks, descended on Ottawa over the weekend to stage one of the largest protests in Canadian history. Similar protests took place across the country as well.
Justin Trudeau fled Ottawa just before the convoy of trucks arrived, citing exposure to COVID, even though at the time he tested negative. Today he tweeted that he had tested positive despite being triple vaccinated.
