    The original GoFundMe appeal had raised an estimated $9 million before website managers said it would withhold money donated to support the truckers.

    In a fresh campaign, under the name Freedom Convoy 2022, organizers said it was raising the funds for truckers protesting against vaccine mandates in Canada.

    Organizers said on the fundraising page: “We are a peaceful country that has helped protect nations across the globe from tyrannical governments who oppressed their people, and now it seems it is happening here.

    “We are taking our fight to the doorsteps of our Federal Government and demanding that they cease all mandates against its people.

    What is insanely telling is how this movement, which is 100% peaceful (with the exception of Antifa running people over) if being labeled as violent and Neo Nazis or Russian motivated. The world is really starting to wake up to the garbage coming out of the progressive left.

    Liberals are jumping ship left and right, realizing that the progressive left has lost their proverbial mind and I welcome into the movement. Let Freedom ring!

    So Gofundme decided to steal over 9 million dollars in donations to the Canadian Freedom Convoy.

    They planned to give the stolen donations to a group of their choosing.

    Then it was discovered that if people filed a complaint with their credit card company that gofundme would be charged 25 dollars per donation in addition to refunding the donation.

    So now gofundme has automatically refunded all donations to prevent chargeback fees.

    Other online donation sites that don't steal are stepping in like give send go.

    The truckers have stated they have enough in donations to occupy Ottowa for 4 years.

    I heard of this but I need to really see if this has legs to it. If so, then that is absolute criminal!

    Ottowa mayor has announced no propane, gasoline, or diesel can be brought to the city or after midnight people will be ticketed and their fuel confiscated.

    Fully loaded fuel trucks are coming in and trucks are.pre positioning themselves around gas stations so that if they don't get fuel, neither will anyone else.
