With the success of the forever Canada initiative, I'm hoping these idiots slink back into the shadows now...

Of course they wanna get rid of single payer healthcare... Really wanna design their own hellhole
Oh he’s no hoser, bud! A hoser’s a good ol’ Canuck! This guy’s no Canuck. Only one word for a separatist:
Traitor
This article is well written and provides detailed connections between "Freedom Convoy" protesters, Alberta Separatists and other disgruntled people/organizations. A few highlights from the article:
Bruce Pardy, the executive director for an organization called Rights Probe
“In order to really turn the page here to become not just an independent country, but a new and free country, Alberta has to ditch the things that are Canadian that exist in Alberta right now,” Pardy said. “Let’s just list some. A Westminster system of government. A Crown. Single-payer public health-care system, a managerial state and Aboriginal rights, you have to get rid of all of these things. And of all those things, perhaps the elephant in the room is Aboriginal rights.”
Pardy is the executive director of Rights Probe, and the sole staffer listed with the organization, which warns of “the end of Western liberal civilization” on its website. Pardy is also a senior fellow at the Fraser Institute, a conservative think tank.
I'm the executive director of a very official organization I just made with just me as the sole staffer, and I'm warning that Bruce Pardy is a dumbass
It's interesting, but when you google this guy you get a great insight into the conservative echo chamber in Alberta/Canada, he works for multiple conservative organizations & think tanks, he writes for Postmedia, Juno News, and is a huge decimator of pro-GOP misinformation among the CPC base.
He's a big part of their targeted messaging campaign, when you look at the positions and writing, you see the misinformation that inspired the convoy. It's clear the CPC has been making the most of this mans tenure and PhD to maximize the impact of their misinformation and messaging campaigns.
ok buddy good luck with that one.
