#36 - The Freedom Convoy
from Simple Evolution Hosted by Brandon Haefling, Eliot Heiss
Canada recently received global news coverage surrounding the Freedom Convoy, a group of protestors who arrived in Ottawa to oppose vaccine mandates and demand freedom. The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, invoked the Emergencies Act, providing the federal government with new power to address the growing protest movement. A series of donations, provided in bank accounts or on funding sites, were immediately frozen and thus restricted access to funding that protesters would need for fuel, food and lodging. This story is not new. Therefore, I will not provide a thorough description here as it will likely only be reiterating information reported from other sources over the past few weeks. What I will say is this: the Canadian Freedom Convoy movement has sparked similar protests around the globe. In discussing these matters it is tough to properly address each component, especially in a recorded conversation under one hour. We therefore encourage curious listeners to dive deeper into this story and learn about how the global situation is evolving. We hope you enjoy!
