Not a Trucker Anymore

“The convoy and life after the convoy has really changed my way of thinking and what I want out of life. I no longer enjoy living in a truck and living out of truck stops for days on end away from family and friends. After losing my job due to the vaccine bullshit and having some time off to sit around and think…I realized that I actually want a home life and a family of my own…

…I also realized that I enjoy fixing trucks more than I enjoy driving them. So I have decided to sell the truck…and chase after another dream. Tomorrow I start a new job where I will be fixing heavy equipment and trucks as an apprentice! I’ll be home every night with weekends off which is something I’ve never had as an owner operator! I’m very excited to start this new life.”

New delay puts fake Trucking schools court proceedings over to August 15th, 2023

Court proceedings for the remaining men have been ongoing for more than a year since the charges were laid, with little progress except the request for delays and more preparation time. When another delay was requested at the May 24th, 2023 proceedings, Crown Attorney L. Welch noted, “This file is already pretty old.”

Also noted during the May 24th proceedings was the fact that the paralegal speaking for one of the Deol family (Jagjeet or Charanjit) was not certain which of the two men was her client.

When asked to comment on the proceedings, Philip Fletcher, president of the Truck Training Schools Association of Ontario said, “I really can’t say much, as this is a repeat of a rerun.”

(June 13, 2023) – TORONTO, ON: The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms announces that the Federal Court will be hearing arguments today on whether the challenged constitutional validity of the government’s mandatory requirement for travellers to use the ArriveCAN app to enter Canada during the Covid-19 pandemic can proceed, despite the ArriveCAN requirement no longer being mandatory.

On December 20, 2021, the Federal Government required Canadians who were unvaccinated, or who were vaccinated but did not use ArriveCAN, to undergo testing and mandatory quarantine upon returning to Canada.

Coutts protesters still sitting in jail while violent criminals walk free in Canada

In present day Canada, career criminals get arrested, are swiftly granted bail, and are back on the streets within hours or days. These men are not career criminals. Margaret says three of them have never received so much as a speeding ticket before. One, she says, “might have a juvenile record” of some kind.

After she tells us they’ve been charged with “conspiracy to murder RCMP officers – a very serious federal charge,” Gord says you’d think “the government would be in a humongous hurry” to make the evidence public in order to reinforce its narrative that the protesters were terrorists.
