The Canadian government under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s reinstated a requirement that all truckers crossing the border be “fully vaccinated” against COVID-19 by January 15.

However, the Canadians did not take this as the gospel.

 Thousands of Canadian truckers will begin a nationwide “Freedom Convoy” to Ottawa, starting next week, to protest a COVID jab mandate for all haulers crossing the border.

“We are taking our fight to the doorsteps of our Federal Government and demanding that they cease all mandates against its people. Small businesses are being destroyed, homes are being destroyed, and people are being mistreated and denied fundamental necessities to survive,” reads the “Freedom Convoy 2022” Go Fund Me page.

The truckers convoy lasted for about 72 kilometres or 45 miles, leading up to the Parliament of Ottawa, Canada.  

Trudeau did not like the protest. He cited that the freedom movement was tarnished by Nazi and racist sympathies. However, one of the organizers of the convoy is an Indigenous woman, and another is a Jewish man.

 The truckers have gain freedoms. Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe has vowed to end the authoritarian COVID “vaccine passport” system in place throughout the province.

Ukraine International Airlines flight PS752 was brought down by a missile, launched by the Iranians, said Canadian PM Justin Trudeau. All passengers – and the crew were killed by the missile. Of them, 83 were Canadians. Mr. Trudeuan said that he had information “from multiple sources indicating that the plane was shot down by an Iranian surface-to air missile”

Then British Prime Minister Boris Johnstone and Australian premier Scott Morrison also told that told that the flight was brought down by a missile.

It is thought that a Russian air defence system, that brought down the Maleysia Airlines in 2014, also brought this one down.

However, the Iranians are adamant that some other way of pointing to the scenario that brought the crash, until the day hat the Iranians explained that a missile crashed the flight.

Justin Trudeau, Peoplekind and Political Correctness

Without the excesses of political correctness, bloggers might have less topics to choose from:

Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau invented the word peoplekind in a recent town hall event in Edmonton, Alberta.

He interrupted a longish comment by a young lady who spoke on the virtue of maternal love as “the love that's going to change the future of mankind."

On hearing this, Mr. Trudeau said, "We like to say peoplekind, not necessarily mankind. It's more inclusive."

It seems that Liberals are having a hard time in using time-honoured words in their proper sense. Think of marriage, for instance.

No wonder then that #peoplekind has been immensely popular on Twitter, and it has inspired a new “political correct” version of space exploration, with Neil Amstrong supposedly saying, “One small step for people, one giant leap for peoplekind”, of people (Nelson peopledela), comic heroes (Batpeople), places (Peoplehattan), fruit (peopledarin oranges) and even a soccer club (Peoplechester United).
