This food is important. It’s tangible, concrete evidence of tremendous grassroots support. While people bring food to community picnics, they don’t normally gather at truck stops in the dark, in the dead of winter, to feed total strangers. This behaviour alone makes the Freedom Convoy socially and historically significant.

Toronto, March 22, 2023 – Despite collecting billions in carbon tax revenues, the federal government has returned less than 1% of the promised proceeds to small businesses, says the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB). On top of that, the government is proceeding with a carbon tax hike of 23% to $65 per tonne on April 1.
In a new snapshot, entitled Fueling Unfairness: Carbon Pricing and Small Businesses, CFIB is calling on the federal government to reconsider the federal carbon pricing backstop.

Ted and Sally (not their real names) leave Saskatoon on Monday in a bobtail truck with two large Canadian flags streaming behind them. The side of their cab is decorated with red maple leaves and the words: “True North Strong & Free” – a phrase from Canada’s national anthem.

The climate has been changing for 4.5 billion years and it will keep on changing for the next 4.5 billion years. Climate change is not going away. And if you think a bunch of politicians who can’t run a passport office, or prevent raw sewage from flowing into Lake Ontario for decades, have the ability to control the climate, then you’re really not very bright.
