Many influential voices, including Elon Musk and psychologist Jordan Peterson, have chimed in: Protesting in a Canadian winter shows real commitment! — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) January 30, 2022 Come out of hiding puppet and face the music @JustinTrudeau https://t.co/PMHP6vF5ng — Dr Jordan B Peterson (@jordanbpeterson) January 30, 2022 The “Freedom Convoy” has been joined by tens of thousands of truckers protesting Canada’s vaccination mandate, and has raised over $8.7 million through GoFundMe.
“We are a peaceful country that has helped protect nations across the globe from tyrannical governments who oppressed their people, and now it seems it is happening here,” the GoFundMe account reads. “We are taking our fight to the doorsteps of our Federal Government and demanding that they cease all mandates against its people. Small businesses are being destroyed, homes are being destroyed, and people are being mistreated and denied fundamental necessities to survive.”

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
