To her fans, Lich is a proud Canadian, a lioness of the movement behind the “Freedom Convoy” protests and the target of a justice system that won’t abide her anti-government beliefs. For the combined 49 days she spent in jail, first after her initial arrest during the 2022 demonstrations and again following an alleged bail breach last summer, she was in their eyes a “political prisoner.” It’s a title she, too, has embraced.
To the Crown, Lich is a nefarious actor who deliberately helped lead blockades that tormented residents, defied police orders, shuttered businesses and pushed the country to a state of national emergency.
Not “peaceful”.
There was nothing “peaceful” about the constant honking, the threats and intimidation, the insults and slurs. There was nothing peaceful about the harassment of small business that resulted in hundreds shutting down for three weeks putting thousands of hourly workers, many working paycheque to paycheque, with families to support out of work.
Everyone knows that when a child screams at the top of its lungs and refuses to move until it gets its way that it’s throwing a temper tantrum. That’s what the “protest” in Ottawa was. A bunch of full grown children throwing down, honking their horns and refusing to move until they got their way. They were tantrumists and they got spanked. Tammy Lich is going to get spanked harder than most.
I think that if you step out of your echo bunker and look around that the “many Canadians” you believe support her are actually a small, delusional minority. The rest of us are done with this fucking tantrumist false patriot bullshit.
Yes. This. As a Canadian living abroad, it was embarrassing. My American colleagues take so much crap… So much… Starting with Bush, then Trump, now the entire cast of wild nutters. Plus, all of my colleagues know my father is a trucker (wasn’t involved with the protest)… The convoy hurt the image of Canada, Lich and Co. made us look like illiterate bumpkins. They could all be Mensa geniuses, it doesn’t matter, the international press put a spin on the whole ordeal that made Canadians look like South Park characters.
My wife’s best friend’s husband is a long haul trucker. Like most Candian truckers he was vaccinated and working when the tantrumists were throwing their tantrum. He thought that they were fucking idiots. The big companies said that they would move unvaccinated drivers to Canadian routes.

True, sound doesn’t really echo when your heads so far up your ass.
If you think that Canadians support the tantrumist bullshit then you definitely do live in an echo chamber. You really should stop reading Chinese and Russian anti-Canadian propaganda masquerading as extreme right wing “news” and come back to the center.
Lich is an idiot. She said, “If we had been there with an agenda to take over Ottawa and overthrow the government, we could have done it.” A bunch of northern hillbillies with a hundred big rigs were going to overthrow the government of Canada. What a bunch of fucking nonsense. That would have ended in one of only two ways: They would have ended up in prison or they would have ended up dead. They are a bunch of delusional children who share a ridiculous collective fantasy. Save yourself before you buy their bullshit book, line, and sinker. Or are you already too far gone?
