I thought there were 1.4 million protestors? Isn't this a kind of coastal-inland divide like in America? Are Quebeckers really loving their leader?!
Comment on Canadian convoys for freedom mega-thread
iamtanmay@wolfballs.com 2 years agoYou have to understand the frustration. They are treated like complete criminals, and even the courts have sided with the govt. They can't travel freely within the country, can't keep jobs and aren't allowed to leave the country. Family courts will not allow visitation to unvaxed. They are about to get taxed on top of all this. Also, their guns have been mostly taken away, unlike US.
That said, the White pill is that they need to bring max 3.5% of the country to the streets to get change. For Canada's 38 Mil, then need turnout of 1.3 million protesters countrywide:
Here in Czech Republic, the threshold is 350,000. But we've already seen a tidal wave of change with around 20k protesters countrywide.

In Canada ? That sounds really high. I believe in Germany they hit the 1M mark when they were debating mandatory vax.
Not sure about Canada.

More than a million protesting. More like half the country is protesting and if they aren’t they still support what’s going on. You have to remember it’s cold and old people and young people don’t travel in winter. Just wait till she warms up.

As much as I love the truckers, I am seeing a lot of conflicting numbers, especially the streamers with drones who are at the scene.
Some say 50k trucks, some say 1k.......
To be honest, at this point it won't matter. 1k trucks are already going to take months to move even by the army. They already got huge media exposure and are pressuring politicians bigly.
Regardless of the actual number, they've stirred up a hornet's nest and things are about to change. Yay !

We have millions of protestors. This is why the government is trying everything they can without firing a bullet. We will hold the line! We are stubborn and want a free country.
