Prime Minister Justin Trudeau called the protest and its supporters a "small fringe minority" with "unacceptable views."

"The small fringe minority of people who are on their way to Ottawa are holding unacceptable views that they're expressing, do not represent the views of Canadians who have been there for each other who know that following the science and stepping up to protect each other is the best way to continue to ensure our freedoms, rights, and values as a country," Trudeau told reporters Wednesday. - WeAreChange

In the past, the Prime Minister has called anyone unvaccinated, "racist and misogynistic extremists".

A group is currently organizing a USA Freedom Convoy however, it is not expected to start till March 1, 2022. In my opinion, too late. Ride the wave while you can.



In closing, local London, Ottawa police along with Canadian Mounties being pulled in from around Canada, are planning on expelling the truckers who have taken up residence in the Parliament city with their rigs.

Annnnd... they've frozen the account. Why do groups do this? Every time, they build up millions only to have GoDefundMe swoop in and freeze the account. Use GiveSendGo or another freedom-respecting company instead.

I read where GFM is going to sit down with the truckers and "discuss" how they're going to spend the money. What a crock.

I am confused (Normal state for me) the above site wearechange reported in their article that GFM unlocked their account.

Here?s the full update from one of the organizers of the Freedom Rally, who said the first batch of the more than 6.8 million CAD had been released.

We have some great news to share with all of you! We have received confirmation that GoFundMe has released our first batch of funds and is initiating our first transfer. We can?t thank you enough for your patience.

Sadly, the legacy media felt it was necessary to publish news articles implying that GoFundMe had frozen our funds for a variety of outrageous reasons. In reality, the temporary hold was due to international banking regulations which dictate many of GoFundMe policies. It is common practice with GoFundMe to conduct this kind of due diligence to ensure the funds are legitimate.

For our case, because of the overwhelming donations we have received, and we are currently the 8th fastest growing campaign in their history, the constant attempts by activists to flag our campaign as illegitimate exacerbated the already tedious process. The team at GoFundMe have been amazing to work with and we are very appreciative of their support.

The release of this first batch of funds will allow us to start processing registration forms and remittances to drivers who need our support. Initially, there will be a bottle neck because of the large number of requests we need to process, and because of payment processing times. Please bare with us as we are working as fast as we can to get this done.

As a reminder, these funds will first assist drivers of all Semi-trucks and direct support vehicles such as pilot trucks and/or mechanic trucks in the convoys to Ottawa. Registrations must have been received and signed off by the Road Captains. These forms must also be completed exactly as per the instructions on the registration form, otherwise they will not be processed. Please note that all submissions are not guaranteed, as this is dependant on how many registrations are received and how much is donated through the GoFundMe campaign.

We have an amazing team behind the scenes comprised of lawyers, accountants, and bookkeepers working hard to ensure people will be compensated. As a reminder, this will take a bit of time, and we ask for your patience while the team reviews and validates the overwhelming number of submissions by participants.

Again, thank you to everyone for their kindness, patience, and support while we get this sorted. Each and every one of you is playing a part in unifying Canadians across the country and showing the world that there is not just hope for Canada, but for the entire world. - WEARECHANGE
