We just had Canada day up here and the red and white flags are everywhere around town. Red and white flowers were planted, parades and ceremonies occurred around the town but I find myself wondering how proud I am to be Canadian. I totally identify with the critical thinkers, the fighters who are speaking up, or opting out, or working for change and accountability as you mention in your article, but not very many are willing to step up and out of their media induced views.

The depth of betrayal of our leaders, policy makers, lawmakers and other elites during covid has quietly festered despite all the restrictions and mandates being lifted. The new narrative about Trump, the bad guy, causing all our problems is their feeble attempt to drum up patriotism and forget how we got here. Many are still under the spell of media propaganda, not questioning, not challenging the status quo.

I recently met Tamara Lich, who helped organize the freedom convoy, and was very moved to hear her spellbinding story of the convoy leading up to her arrest and incarceration. I felt the most profound gratitude for her conviction and courage despite the hardships and obstacles she endured and is still enduring.

I'm so proud of her and the others that helped bring down the tyranny. She inspires me and reinforces my rebel convictions.

It's a new kind of patriotism rising up.
