Thank You, Truckers! with Donna Laframboise

On this third installment of five episodes for National Truck Driver Appreciation Week, Voice Of GO(r)D is very excited to present you an author and journalist whose upcoming book is called ... Thank You, Truckers! Donna Laframboise has spent her life writing from the perspective of the working class, and taking contrary positions against those in power who incorrectly believe they know better than the rest of us. Donna has written for the Toronto Star, National Post, Toronto Life magazine, Chatelaine, and many other publications, and she is also the former VP of The Canadian Civil Liberties Association. Her new book, set to be released next winter, documents the stories of many truckers and other regular working people who took part in Canada's Freedom Convoy, a project reminiscent of the late and great Studs Terkel. If you don't know who Studs Terkel is, here is a chapter from his book I published earlier in the year on my Substack - https://autonomoustruckers.substack.com/p/revisiting-a-working-class-classic Donna blogs daily at https://thankyoutruckers.substack.com/ - which serves as a first draft of her in-progress book by the same name. She is the author of a kids' picture book, Opa's Convoy Letters - - https://www.amazon.ca/Opas-Convoy-Letters-Donna-Laframboise/dp/B0BS93Z5J4 - about the thank you cards and letters of encouragement one grandfather received while protesting in his truck in Ottawa in early 2022.
