globepolitics What was there message? Hatred? defacing Terry Fox and disrespecting the Unknown Soldier FluTrucksClan disgraceful 😑

AdamScotti AdamScotti. The only thing worse than flying a Nazi flag parliament is the PM JustinTrudeau 's henchmen framing protesters. Trend this hashtag! AdamScotti

What else should one expect from these hooligans because they've no respect for statues and monuments. Also, dragging our PM's name in the dirt indicates a lousy upbringing. I find that simply disrespectful and that the opposition still wants to capitalize on that's reprehensible

Here’s another one. These idiots do not speak for me or the vast majority of Canadians.

'I served my country for my freedom' lol when

Trucker? Pretty sure that word starts with F.

Could you cover some of the demonstrations taking place in the other provinces? People are gathering in solidarity all across Canada, not just in Ottawa.

Haven’t those Canadian truckers have anything better to do? Refusing to get vaccinated to protect themselves and others is worth causing this chaos?

Globe is apparently one of the greatest supporters ! your coverage seems like a coming out party

Where'd your 'Small fringe group' of 'nazi' 'Anti-vaxxers' narrative go?

globepolitics It would be more accurate to call them an anti-vax or anti-federal-government convoy. You don’t have to repeat their framing. Please do better.

Criminals

if these truckers travel to USA: NEW: All non-U.S. individuals seeking entry into the U.S. via land ports of entry and ferry terminals at the U.S.-Mexico and U.S.-Canada borders must be fully vaccinated for COVID19. Details Rightwards arrow
