Freedom Convoy - attention seeking and a good excuse for a party - Canada's "Freedom Riders"
Stops at strip joints and bars made up a substantial portion of the trip
An assortment of random comments and observations from the Freedom Convoy. Not too coherent – kind of fits with the theme of the convoy.
Banging their way across the country (figuratively and literally) - Canadian truckers are demanding freedom just like their anti-masker and anti-vaxxer cousins to the south. All very QAnon and MAGAt like.
Evidently, they want to be freed from living.
“Would’ve been better if the weather was nicer but if we waited much longer, we’d be 100 per cent vaxxed and that doesn’t make a real strong statement, now does it? We are 90 per cent vaccinated at this point. What are we fighting for? We don’t really know. Those Yanks that talked us into this said it will give us some ‘standing’ with the people of Canada. I don’t really have a clue what that means. Here, hold my beer, I gotta take a leak,” ordered Billy-William Kolchinski of Edmonton, Alberta as he urinated on the street laughing, “You don’t buy beer, you just rent it.”
“We’ve been spending every night across the river at the bars and strip joints in Hull, Quebec. Some of us are planning on moving here. Those French girls are really pretty. I have no idea what they’re saying but they sure smell nice.”
“Ain’t no one gonna tell us what we can or cannot do,” shouted Billy Bob McMaster of the province of Saskatchewan as he drove through a red light on Rideau Street before rear-ending the Freightliner in front of him.
Misspelled signs and upside-down Canadian flags were everywhere - “Odawa or bust”, “Fuck Troodo”, “Scrw the libruls” “No vaccations for us”.
Canada’s rebels without causes - obeying an American element or so it has been said.
“There would’ve been a lot more of us, but we lost a lot of the convoy at a Winnipeg strip joint. They’re probably still there. We’ll pick them up on our way back. If we go back. I’m really starting to like the Quebec side of the National Capital Region. Damn bars stay open all night - they toss you out for an hour or so at 6 AM while they hose the place down, you just go outside with your drinks and wait till 7.”
Not that Jason actually gives a shit about any of it saying, “At least they’re not at the Alberta Legislature again.”
