What will the political aftermath be from the trucker convoy and their protest in Ottawa? With plenty of signs promoting white nationalism and acts like defacing a Terry Fox statue and stealing food from homeless shelters, a fringe movement has now exposed itself and could have lasting ramifications to this country's political scene. A number of members of Parliament have expressed solidarity and support for the protesters, and how this event will be framed and perceived in the days and months ahead could reshape right-leaning politics in this country.
Clips in this episode include:
- Member of Parliament Brad Vis speaking to CPAC
- Prime Minister Justin Trudeau speaking from his press event after the protest, via Global News
- Conservative Party of Canada leader Erin O'Toole comments from his Instagram account
