This video appeared on Twitter a year ago, around the time the Freedom Convoy trucker protest was being violently shut down by police in Ottawa. Above and below are slightly different versions. The bottom one is three seconds longer and widescreen.
In English, the gentleman in the foreground delivers this message:
From Italy, we want to say a big, big thank you to Canadian people fighting for freedom and for the truth. We have made this for you. [points to a banner that reads: Italy stands with Canada] to say to you โThank you, thank you Canada.โ
Thank you Canadian people fighting for freedom for all the world. You are fighting not just for Canada but for the rights of the citizens of all the world. From Italy, from Italy a big, big thank you to Canada. Go Canada! Go, go, go Canada!
Wow!! - as a freedom fighting/ democracy loving convoy member with Ukrainian Grandparents (Momโs Side) and Italian Grandparents (Dadโs side), todayโs entry Donna has a very powerful emotional impact on me! I was lucky enough to have the privilege to attend the Whitby portion of Christine Andersonโs Canada Tour and didnโt make it home till midnight- that 401 drive reminded me of the 6 AM arrival home from Ottawa that Sat morning of the History Making Trudeauโs answer to Canadian demands for their Charter Rights! I realize how lucky I am to have had the opportunity to show my gratitude , Love , Respect and Appreciation to Christine and have the opportunity and privilege to actually give her a hug! Donna, you as well are doing more than your share in this ongoing battle war against Global tyranny- I canโt put into words my feelings of debt we all owe you for your contribution to this WAR we all are fighting for our Grandchildrenโs Grandchildren- THANK YOU DONNA!
It's amazing how important international support has been the last few years. We need to know we're not alone. It's so important to reach out and support each other. I gives me the chills to see the Canadian flag flown around the world.
