Here are two more brief interviews that document a common theme. Both were recorded on the first weekend of the Ottawa protest. Above, a member of the Kelowna, British Columbia fire department tells Laura Lynn Tyler Thompson that vaccine coercion is the reason he drove 4,000 kilometers (2,500 miles) across Canada to take part:

We’re tearing ourselves apart here, guys. Brothers and sisters, we need to come together. Enough is enough.

He says that getting a COVID vaccine is a personal choice, and that those who decline to do so deserve the support of their fellow firefighters:

We’ve pulled together for two years now, getting though this. And now our governments are throwing us under the bus. And enough is enough. I am sick and tired of it.

In this second video, a francophone protester from Montreal explains his support for the truckers. His mostly-in-French remarks can be summarized as ‘Canadians need to unite.’

At the beginning of the video he says in English: “Enough is enough. We want freedom, for real.”

He also finishes in English: “Enough is enough. We are done.”
