While Canadian Truckers were pouring into Ottawa and peacefully assembling, with some taking the time to feed homeless, Justin Trudeau was sneaking out of town to an undisclosed location like he was fleeing advancing Mongol hordes. There are no credible reports of him disguised in blackface although it’s one alter ego he’s known to employ. Maybe he was wearing a Native American headdress. We may never know. In any event, he fled like a coward, refusing to meet with convoy truckers.
From his secret location, Trudeau first characterized the truckers as a fringe few causing havoc and property damage; and based on a single clown, his entire face covered and carrying a Confederate flag (who almost certainly was a plant), Trudeau labeled the whole assembly racist and dangerous.
But their numbers keep growing and support keeps pouring in. The GoFundMe page called “Freedom Convoy 2022” raised in excess of $10,000,000 in two weeks before the GoFundMe authoritarians pulled up their jackboots and shut the site down. As of February 3, 2022, Freedom Convoy is “under review.” No one can donate to it.
That hasn’t stopped others from aiding those interested in freedom.
Jack Posobiec, a former Navy Intel officer and now a children’s book author and Twitter heavy hitter with over 1.6 million followers, has thrown his support toward the convoy truckers. He’s labeled himself the “Ambassador of Truckistan.” Posobiec told Fox News:
“These truckers know what they are fighting for – freedom.”
Posobiec has been tweeting a lot on the subject and there is little doubt that he’s responsible for trucker Gofundme donations skyrocketing. He’s tweeted about the grassroots support as well:
BREAKING: Polish immigrants just arrived in Ottawa with thousands of Polish sausages and bread for the truckers

Trent Talbot is also a children’s book author and the CEO of Brave Books — he has pledged his support. I received a press release on Wednesday that Talbot intends to donate 20% of profits from his newest book, to the Freedom Convoy truckers via the Gofundme page. But with Gofundme shutting down the ability to donate, that might be on hold. Anyone interested should go to BraveBooks for further info.
Trudeau intends to crush the truckers. He was at it again Tuesday, ramping up the garbage rhetoric.
Today in the House, Members of Parliament unanimously condemned the antisemitism, Islamophobia, anti-Black racism, homophobia, and transphobia that we’ve seen on display in Ottawa over the past number of days. Together, let’s keep working to make Canada more inclusive.

Australia and New Zealand went full lockdown and we now know there was no benefit and likely a net negative to lockdowns. The same holds true with mandating that truckers — men and women who drive alone on the open highways are not vectors for transmitting COVID — be vaccinated. But common sense seems in short supply up in the frozen north. We need to support the Canadian truckers, either through people like Posobiec and Talbot or other champions for freedom.
“Gofundme shutting down the ability to donate”
Didnt see that comin!
I hope they open a page at GiveSendGo. We need to make sure the US truckers are funded safely if they decide to go ahead with the US Convoy.
Go fund me has turned into a PAC.
A grift that gathers conservative funds , probably collects interest on, and holds it hostage .
Change my mind.
Well it’s based in San Fran and states up front it’s a “for profit” company, so yeah....
Does anyone know where the convoy is now or the route it plans to take?
People donated to the GoFundMe in good faith that their money would go toward paying for diesel fuel, food, and shelter for the truckers. To think for a second that their money is being held up when it is desperately needed is alarming.
The GoFundMe managers may be guilty of grand larceny, fraud, and theft. Is it true that the GoFundMe managers may give the money to the government instead of the intended recipients?
The GoFundMe organization may be corrupt and disingenuous; certainly NOT trustworthy.
There is the main one still in Ottawa, there is another in Alberta at a town called Coutts on the US border. I hear there are others that move from border crossing to border crossing.
From the website:
“This fundraiser is currently paused and under review to ensure it complies with our terms of service and applicable laws and regulations. Our team is working 24/7 and doing all we can to protect both organizers and donors. Thank you for your patience.”
So it looks like it is just temporary. Much ado about nothing, apparently.
Agree, they also have lists of who contributes, think of that, credit card information address etc.
“Today in the House, Members of Parliament unanimously condemned the antisemitism, Islamophobia, anti-Black racism, homophobia, and transphobia that we’ve seen on display in Ottawa over the past number of days.”
Turdeau said that about the truckers. He’s lost touch with reality.
Bro, you forgot the sarcasm tag. Seriously, I was sure from the start that this dick move was inevitable
Today’s Freedom Convoy press conference answers many questions being asked
Truckload of food donated to homeless shelter, garbage cleanup crews, security for monuments etc
Gets a little fiesty after the organizers leave and questions are asked of a doctor who outlines vaccine deaths and adverse reactions

I’ll add…they could lay off the honking after hours if they don’t want to piss off those they want to join the movement.
Much ado about nothing, apparently
Funds, like justice, delayed
Is funds denied.
Temporary in this case means
” until it won’t help”.
Do leftist funds go through this ?
NEVER
Only conservative causes
Ergo , PAC.
Some ine called it in…. Probably Fidel’s boy
You’ve convinced me
They’re holding my money fraudulently. Send lawyers
The farmers are forming a convoy to join the main body in Ottawa
Go fund me has turned into a PAC.
A grift that gathers conservative funds , probably collects interest on, and holds it hostage .
Change my mind.

Agree totally. Seems to me this has to be illegal in some way. Someone should sue them.
