There was an article the other day that, roughly summed up, posited that attacking the freedom convoy is “good politics” for Trudeau. I don’t see how. It isn’t about people protesting Trudeau. It’s about the kind of people protesting Trudeau. These aren’t college kids angry about tuition costs and they aren't political enthusiasts wearing political slogans. Nor are they protesting something that is considered politically controversial, ie., something that has an opposing viewpoint large enough that it doesn’t matter what a politician says, roughly half the people will support him (think the pro-choice vs. pro-life debate).
Fantastic article! Sums up what's going on beyond the divisive rhetoric spewed by the "legacy media". Canadians are finally waking up and seeing the emperor not only has no clothes, but that he is just a spoiled mouthy punk who is having a temper tantrum. He's losing members of his fan club. The world is indeed watching and he is being vilified because he is a coward.
As someone who’s transgender, I’m beyond offended by Trudeau weaponizing my ‘identity’ for political gain and demonizing the protesters. End the mandates and the vaccine passports!
Agree with you. Not good politics. Trudeau's response has been abysmal.
The question, at this point, is why he is so intent on doubling down on this-- what part of it he doesn't want to give up, even as other pandemic restrictions are discarded. And the answer seems to come with a QR code.
I have read others make the assessment that the Canadian politburo types are still at the bargaining stage of grief. I wonder if there are any with enough imagination to see the future, a future where many more formerly-passive people than they ever thought possible are now suddenly comfortable with demonstration. Being confronted with that knowledge must really shake up the calculations.
Very well stated. One correction you might make is that there was just one nazi flag. You used the term, ones, as if there was a few such flags. Use of the term, one, would be accurate. There was another flag, confederate in basic form but featuring an overlayed semi truck. Again, the only 'one' of its kind to appear. The individual may have been a setup, as you suggested about the Nazi FLAG, and the overall context readily discredits the inflammatory claims of the TRUDY and SINGH alliance -- and those of their faithful in the legacy news media. The less attention paid to that nonsense, the better, but it really should be nailed down hard so one can simply provide a link or reference to that nailing down the coffin lid on this disgraceful smear. Thanks for your substack writing. Blessings.

Trudy looks for affirmation from his peers: Macron and Cindy.
Today NZ had our Freedom Convoy.
Cindy and Trudy will compare notes - who got the greater turnout. How did I do, they will ask each other.
The Cult's allegiance is to the Cult. The one who gets away with the biggest lie is their hero, and example to better.
Totally agree with your take on the situation. IMO, it's a lose-lose for him. 🤗
