T. LaDuke at Red State salutes the Canadian truckers:
. . .
Truckers are the lifeblood of any
country and the federal government of Canada had zero issues with “essential”
border crossings in all of 2020 and 2021 with no vaccine mandate. The mandates
are not based on anything scientific but are just the will of some overpaid
employees working for a faceless bureaucracy who believe their authority is
supreme. These overbearing mandates have spread to businesses still being
closed and set to reopen at an arbitrary date set by Ottawa and extend to
school kids wearing masks in gym class.
This is not about the safety and
well-being of citizens but willy nilly policy crafted by bored bureaucrats with
the force and the full weight and enforcement power of the Canadian Federal
Government. They can and have been making average Canadians’ lives miserable
based on a hunch and the result was Saturday, January 29th in Ottawa.
Canada has had enough.
The quote above [the one about freedom not being free] from then-Governor
Ronald Reagan is something that many of us Americans will bandy about at times
to try and remind ourselves that the freedom the generation before handed off
to us is something truly worth preserving. We read the words but don’t always
grasp the true meaning because we have become a bit fat and lazy while feasting
on the freedom buffet we were born into but might not have really earned.
Yesterday, Canada showed us how to
start earning it and, my Lord, it was a marvel to watch. As an American, this
is not the position I thought I would ever find myself in, praising
another country on how to do the “freedom thing.” Yet here I am, and I am
incredibly grateful to our Canadian cousins for the lesson brought to us from
them.
If you value your freedom and
believe that it is just one generation away from being taken away from you, as
Reagan so eloquently warned, then today you stand with Canada and her patriots
who love their country but do not support its government’s policies.
Today, that makes us all Canadians.
