I suppose it starts with the Freedom Convoy in Ottawa. It was an emotional few weeks, and it culminated in a violent quelling of a peaceful protest, which was perfectly in line with the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms Section 2(c) (the fundamental freedom of peaceful assembly).

  1. David Ross and Ches Crosbie are men of integrity. What they’ve accomplished, with the help of many other volunteers and hundreds of witnesses, was truly amazing.

    They have demonstrated such restraint and held themselves to a higher standard over these past several weeks. Rather than airing any grievances publicly, they have risen above the attacks.
