This whole ordeal has become very polarized from both sides. I've been listening to a bit of talk radio including CBC.
Like the far right extremists for example, they hitch on to every cause for attention basically, they were also part of the United whatever and the Yellow jacket protests. There was a guy on CBC yesterday talking about this and outlined the history of some of the people involved and it goes back quite a few years.
Roy Green had on former premiere of BC Ujjal Dosanjh who basically said that political leaders like our PM should try and be civil to all involved rather than use polarized language etc...
The point is there is a better balanced views/discussion out there, on talk radio anyways, you hear from people all across the country and many support the truckers but not the tactics or extremist elements.

Aw man, I had no idea Evangeline Lily was an idiot.
Yeah...she's definitely had a heaping helping of 'crazy' and gone back for seconds.
I do have to echo the sentiment though, society really needs to have a hard look at the people generally considered 'Role Models.'
Generally speaking, actors, athletes, most people in the Public eye....nobody really should be looking up to these people.
The thing is, most people in these professions tend to live in isolated little bubbles so their opinions and views on 'layman life' tend to be heavily skewed.

Here's an hour long discussion between Jordan Peterson and Rex Murphy. They side with the truckers and fail to see the "emergency" precipitating the Emergencies Act.
That's a balanced panel !! Why didn't get get Kenney to call in?

This is being spread on facebook by supporters of the convoy. She makes a bunch of usual (and wrong) claims in the video.
No! Bad Wasp/Elf/Kate.
Doctors and health professionals probably make up 1% of the convoy lady.
You forgot to add the white supremacists, neo-nazis, unemployed, uneducated, rural right wingers, world's worst parents and trump supporters.
She's from Saskatchewan so sadly it checks out.
SK - at least rural/small town Saskatchewan is heavily pro-convoy. Sadly have family and friends out there pushing the "they're all great, normal, educated people" angle.
