There was no necessity for protestors outside of Ottawa to go to Ottawa! That move was as brain dead as it gets. Protesting is legal anywhere in Canada.
After the initial convoy it was basically Ontarians and Quebecers making up the bulk of protestors

Oh I think so. The main point of protesting is to have your thoughts and opinions heard. Secondary is to actually change anything.
The response was so great that the Premier of Quebec decided not to fine the unvacced and drop provincial mandates . The premier of Saskatchewan dropped his mandates prior to the convoy even arrived in Ottawa when he saw the support it generated . So sometimes they actually do change things . When you cover your ears and shout I can’t hear you ones thoughts and opinions are not heard , of course that is exactly what our federal government did .

It seems you don't.........If all those people would have stayed home as you suggest, sitting in their house holding their breath until they turned blue, do you think anyone would care?
To make a protest work and be heard, you have to draw attention to the issues....which is what they did....and quite well.

Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba and Alberta and some success in BC was after the Convoy got to Ottawa

Sure 3 of them....................1. It's in conflict with the battle against climate change. (Every mile driven heats up the planet). 2- It adds to air pollution. 3- Thousands of dollars were squandered that could have been put to better use. Hey, Pete any time you need help or advice, I'm right here. Enjoy the day. :)

Was it a wasted cost for our fathers/grandfathers to travel to Europe to free them from Germany?
