He's right and expresses well the great uplifting many of us felt upon hearing a trucker's air horn. Yet to this day the Covid piper's flute still leads the parade, a following that just won't quit. Because we now have all our eggs in a government basket, it was inevitable that dictatorial government was what we'd get. When Mr Freeman writes of the fate suffered by the 'tall poppies' of the truckers protest it is easy to see why so few people have the strength to stand up tall. It reminds me of the Jefferson quote, "the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. it is it's natural manure." And when I thought clearly of the quote's implication, I understood that inevitably the first blood spilled will be that of the few patriot that start a rebellion. Regrettably, until we outnumber the tyrants, that will not change.

... remember, there were AHS employees selling 'vaccine' cards those willing to provide $2k so they could continue to work and maintain their medical freedom. Those corrupt AHS employees are still working. It's corruption from the top on down.

It's so sad. I get the fear, but it's clear now the only way out of this is for everyone to speak their minds. Using fake cards while pushing the immunization is the lie that got us here and keeps it going. You have to admit though, its been quite the week in mea culpas in the main stream media, namely the NYT.

My heart was filled up when I found 'Thank you Truckers!' From my humble perspective this is the most important story of our generation, and that's not because there aren't very serious problems and attrocities across the world that deserve our attention, but because of the power of this story and every smaller story that emerges from it - that has the power to change the way we treat each other and that will affect everything else.

We have to keep telling this story, yes, more than that we have to write it, we have to take our role in it and be the change we need in our world.

This part of it, searching down the truth, the ups and downs, bringing attention to our heroes and exposing the villains is not just important for the historical record, it's the hope and inspirstion we need to rise to the occasion.

Thank you so much Donna for your writing and coverage of the convoy.
