Under the authoritarian leadership of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Canada has turned into a biomedical security state. Not everybody is satisfied with living inside of a biomedical security state though, thousands of truckers in the last several weeks have expressed their disapproval of Canada’s extreme vaccine mandates by forming the freedom convoy. Since the freedom convoy took over Canada’s capital of Ottawa, the city has not been silent since, but has instead, been filled with the sound of truckers blasting their air horns for freedom.
Not everybody is a fan of the truckers and residents of Ottawa honking at night, far-left liberals in their millions of dollar apartments in downtown Ottawa have taken to Twitter to whine about the truckers disturbing their sleep patterns. A resident of Ottawa has even filed a lawsuit for the truckers to stop honking downtown, and a Superior Court Judge ruled an injunction that would ban all honking from parked trucks in downtown Ottawa.
One elderly man didn’t bow down to give away his freedom of expression and honked anyway and as a result, he was arrested. Watch the moment it happened here:

The older man reportedly was arrested after refusing to show his I.D. but he should have never been pulled over in the first place due to the fact honking your horn is not a crime.
According to the Ottawa Citizen Justice Hugh McLean who made an injunction to ban honking for 10 days was quoted saying:
“People have a right to protest various things in various ways,” McLean said. But he agreed with lawyer Paul Champ that the incessant noise could cause long-term and irreparable hearing damage. “Tooting a horn is not an expression of any great thought,” McLean noted wryly, even allowing for the “potential artistic merit” of the truckers’ creative use of patterns and beats.
The injunction takes effect immediately. McLean also rejected the demonstrators’ request to blow their horns for five minutes once a day at 5 p.m. “The only purpose of this (horn blowing) is to bring attention to this protest,” McLean said. “There’s no need for that anymore. The public is fully aware of what’s going on.”
If you’re wondering what it sounds like downtown Ottawa, take a look at this video:
A judge ruled that honking is now illegal in Ottawa for 10 days.
This was how the truckers responded:

Besides banning honking, city officials have also made it illegal to deliver fuel and amenities to truckers who are protesting. Anyone who delivers fuel or food to truckers will be charged with participating in an illegal activity and are subject to arrests and fines. The protesters are not just men but there are also women and children who are also onboard the big reels. So, essentially Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wants the truckers to freeze and starve which would cause them to leave.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in an emergency parliament meeting finally broke his silence and stated the trucker’s protests are a threat against democracy. The highly criticized prime minister continued and said the truckers were blockading Canada’s economy and democracy which is complete hypocrisy considering that’s exactly what the liberal-controlled government in Canada is doing now.
