GODs peace comes from prayers,good Children know this ! ,Good people everywhere need to pray and Ask for GOD’s Devine help ,but always include Jesus’s name and end with AMEN. I’ve been praying for all the Great truckers of the world and all the great people supporting them , God is watching,Prayers are what evil fears especially said at night !.
The turnout is amazing here in Ottawa. Kids and grandmothers everywhere. It’s a celebration that you do not want to miss! Hopefully you guys have made it out to some local gatherings if possible.
Police presence is high but the mood has not changed. It continues to be a peaceful freedom celebration and everyone is having fun.
The GFM seizure has improved moral and added to our cause like you would not believe.

Have a good day all!
Excellent --- I was a little worried after watching the Ottawa police chief talk last night (link below). All the best for the good work all of you are doing.
Went to the protest in Toronto today. I have no idea how to count crowd numbers, but my estimate would be 10,000. There were several drones and helicopters flying around so I’m sure there will be an official count (though we’ll never get the real numbers).
A number of speakers, some good, a couple kooks. Aboriginal drummers and singers. People of all colours and creeds. Happy, respectful and supportive. Even scored a nice Nicaraguan cigar from a guy! And people were smoking funny things.
No counter-protesters to speak of. A few wearing masks but not really rabble-rousing. Someone set off a tear-gas bomb but very little wind and it didn’t seem to cause any disturbance. And the best thing of all - you could see people’s faces, you could smile and talk without the mask filter.
At one point, a speaker asked those who had lost their job due to the mandate to put their hand up. I’d say 40% of people there were like that. Talked to some nurses and other medical personnel who were out of work.
We were there about 4 hours, talked to some great people, a number from Eastern Europe who grew up under communism and said Canada is actually worse at this point.
Watched the media coverage of the protest today on Global. They claimed only 1000 people. There were far, far more. And, funny thing, the only interviews they published were those with white people. The camera shots only showed white people. At least 30% of the people there were POC. All races and ethnicities. I laughed with a few POC calling them racists.
So. Much. Fake. News.
We parked and took the subway in because I decided people were more important to see than trucks. We walked into the subway station unmasked. The TTC employee was helpful and supportive. No one challenged us and we knew who was going to the protest because they were all unmasked. A couple of looks but no issues.
We went into a couple of restaurants and people were unmasked and no one challenged. Even security guards at buildings were helpful and supportive.
Thankfully the Ottawa convoy has been barricaded in by police cars and concrete barriers so it’s pretty safe from anything like that.

Seeing as you and your BIL are a bit of an information hub, this was just released from Jordan Peterson addressing the truckers.
It's an hour long, but the short version is he supports what's happening and explains why that is.
You and your BIL and the rest as well remain in my prayers.

Hey Dwayne, thanks for the support and info. We’ll try and get some time to watch it. I have seen in several areas now that he is supporting us and he has been very vocal in calling out Justrun. The big names of people supporting us is huge and quite amazing. Once again Dwayne, thank you so much for the prayers.

Hey wannabebwana,
I’m glad you got to experience a Freedom Celebration, it’s a truly beautiful experience that I hope all will get the chance to be a part of. The more eyes that see how absolutely disgusting and deceitful our media is in this country, the better. Everywhere within our boundaries has become a safe place where you have the choice to mask up or not and you get to be happy.
Cheers and hope you’ll get another chance to get back out there.
we went out to what I figured was going to be the most populated freedom rally within an hour of my house, so we went to Vernon and participated with that one. There were rallies all over, everywhere scattered around, I think that is just the nature of the area. There was probably 500 People or more, it was hard to tell because I couldn't see them all at the same time because the People were on all 4 corners of a major intersection leading into town, there was no way for the traffic to not go right by everyone.
I never saw a mask anyone, except a covtard that walked by us twice mumbling about his right to wear a mask, LOL, I said to him yeah, it is your right, that's the point. Everyone I spoke with was well educated on the subject, very polite, and zero garbage. I spoke with a young lady who lost her job of 22 years with Canada post, several others who lost their jobs. Lots of kids, very impressed, nobody was smoking weed or drinking, so that was good too.
Every single truck that went by was pulling on it, they were really appreciative for the support, most car/trucks honking, a few Trudeau salutes, about one salute for every 100 vehicles, this one guy kept driving by repeatedly with a big smile on his face, Trudeau salute displayed, then he got stuck at a crosswalk and about 8 old guys were there yelling stuff, that was the most hilarious thing I saw, and it was funny. The most interesting scene I saw was a pickup stopped in front of us and a kid about 10, hung out the window of his Dads truck with a sign that read..."Trudeau is a Communist"...all I could say was.....that's right little buddy.
