Hundreds of truckers and their supporters are making their way from B.C. to Ottawa for a planned protest outside Parliament on Saturday.
But a review of the protesters’ online communications, including real-time chatter over walkie-talkie app Zello, suggest a collection of grievances and anti-government sentiment that extends beyond vaccine mandates.

The Liberals have set aside nearly $600 million over the next five years for tax credits and other incentives aimed at propping up struggling news outlets.

I was in Ottawa in October, when I went to the parliament buildings there was a giant 12 ft high wall around the main building.
I found it odd... apparently for renovations and such. If that giant wall is still there no January 6th type BS is going to happen. Nothing is going to happen like that. If anything the convoy is going to be met with over the top police presence and ruin the protest. Guess we gotta wait and see.

Why would anyone hope for a bunch of people to raid a high-end government building to take selfies and fight police?
If you want a revolution, don't hope it's like the worst one in history
but no doubt more propaganda to paint those truckers as illogical madmen.

I thought the whole point of Jan 6th was to prevent congress from certifying the election results. Obviously this is a different can of worms. Hopefully things remain peaceful, whatever happens!
