Mandate Freedom

February 8, 2022 by Nadine Gordon

The past week or so have certainly been jam packed with current events in Canada as the Freedom Convoy rolled into an unprepared Ottawa taking politicians and residents by surprise.

When unprecedented numbers of the silent majority stand together for a common cause such as freedom and do it peacefully, it has a way of inspiring the world and bringing such things as corruption and political pandering to the forefront.

All one has to do is compare honest truth alongside that of corruption to see for yourself who the real peace keepers of Canada have been for the last fortnight.  (No offense intended here but they have not been our politicians or Legacy News reporters.)  The real peace keepers standing strong and united for our freedoms are truck drivers, farmers, small business owners and families from every corner of our vast country.

The information and stories evolving from the Freedom Movement come so quickly that it is nearly impossible to stay current on them.  I quite literally have no words or perhaps there are too many of them bouncing around in my head to get down. 

Some of the coverage has been absolutely hilarious.  My kudos go to: Russell Brand #UnderTheSkin, Tucker Carlson *Tonight* on Fox News and the Lotuseaters.com Media/News Company for your great sense of humor and for the coverage each of you supplied for our freedom movement.  I’d also like to give a little shout out to Western Standard – Cory Morgan’s rant on his morning show Triggered; the “new normal,” which I thoroughly enjoyed.

One of the more interesting developments I’ve also noticed along with the arrival of the convoy is the amount of extremely talented artists coming across social media sites, all using their voices in some way shape or form.  I managed to save some art by some very talented cartoonists before they got censored.  See below:

 

                             

 

 

The fight for our freedom in Canada is very real. I have used a few examples in this post of the types of free speech we can lose.  We are already having our freedom of speech censored. Use your voices Canada!  Let’s mandate freedom.

I am standing up for Freedom.

Honk if you do too!

    It’s becoming increasingly difficult to find accurate information, as the censorship has reached an all new high. I left FaceBook because of it. I’m now trying MeWe. The press is so biased it’s unbelievable and the sad thing is, so many people gobble that up as truth. Did you see the video of the police arresting that feeble old man? As I sit here in Texas, I’m wondering if we should apply for refugee status and just stay. That was tongue in cheek, but some days, one has to wonder.

    I love those cartoons, especially the “Let’s Go Brandeau” cartoon. Maybe that will become a popular chant in Canada. I think partly due to the Freedom Convoy, more and more Democrat-run states in the USA are doing away with mask mandates. So thank you, Canada.

      I am loving the support we are receiving from our American allies!
      There have been so many amazing cartoons memes but they have just vanished! The censorship has been ridiculous!

    Another good update, Nadine.
    National Post continues to post positive editorials – see Tristin Hopper and Rex Murphy.
    The most ironic comment has come from the PM: “Individuals are trying to blockade our economy, our democracy, and our fellow citizens’ daily lives—It has to stop,” asserts Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as he speaks in an emergency House of Commons debate concerning the ongoing trucker protests in Ottawa. Interim Conservative Leader Candice Bergen responded: “We are at a crisis point not only with what’s going on out the doors and across the country, but the country overall, And so much of it is because of the things that he has said and done.”

      That’s correct! Which is why I believe the peaceful protest here in Canada is so important. It’s about respect and dignity over tyranny…
      The ability to speak freely and choose for one’s self after seeing all sides of a story enable critical thinking to take place…
