“Just do something, ANYTHING, to stand up for our Constitution and for Freedom!”

5/13/2022

Dear Patriots, I'm so sorry for not writing much recently. There's been a lot going on, behind the scenes.

Actually, I just got home from the hospital. My ophthalmologist swiftly diagnosed my blotchy vision as a retinal hemorrhage + optical nerve swelling most likely caused by extremely high Blood Pressure...and sent me directly across the road to the ER for intravenous Blood Pressure meds.

He scared me straight by saying I basically "had a stroke in my right eye." This is my first serious health problem and I wish I'd taken care and kept on the meds but I was spared anyways. It could've been MUCH worse when my BP hit 234/139. Oddly, my first cousin, Chris (may he rest in peace), had a stroke in his early forties.

Michael has been wonderfully supportive, driving me to and from the hospital twice this week (100 miles round trip). I'm going to rest all weekend but my friend, Patty, kindly agreed to write a guest post about her recent visit with The People's Convoy! I love how she formatted it as a letter between two friends. :)

I was planning to write about several interesting non-convoy topics this week, but alas, it just didn't happen. Perhaps next week????

If anyone would like to write a guest article for the blog, I'd be grateful. It's been terribly neglected the last few weeks and I've got to learn how to write passionately while staying calm....very, very calm. Hmmmm.

And now...what it's really like at The People's Convoy!

Patriot Constable Erin Howard Persecuted for "Standing on Guard for Thee"

Article written by Dan Arcand, Freedom-Loving Patriotic Canadian

In June, a brave Canadian police officer, Ontario Constable Erin Howard, will face a disciplinary board in Whitby, Ontario.

And for what!?!

For having the temerity to speak to Canadians directly from her squad car in February. For saying what everyone was feeling. For recognizing the unity the Trucker Freedom Convoy provoked across the country.

When I saw her on the 54-second video that raced across the nation, it brought tears to my eyes. I felt such joy mixed with relief at the sight of an officer representing our fears and our hopes as Canadians while wearing the uniform we all needed to believe in.

And for this "crime" she is publicly persecuted.

This is yet another in a series of unbelievable events we Canadians find ourselves starring in.

Mother's Day...For the Rest of Us

In retrospect, it may've been a mistake to browse Facebook today. All those glowing posts about "the best mother ever." All my friends' pictures of their happy, happy, happy families grinning broadly.

If your family has been blessed with that authentic joy, I'm happy for you. Envious, actually. You might want to click off this article now because it's for "the rest of us."

Those of us who white-knuckle it through Mother's Day for a plethora of reasons, all of them painful. If Mother's Day is one of the worst days of the year for you too, then this article is for you.

What's Going So Right!?! Roe v Wade Defeated, People's Convoy En Route to DC and Hunter's Laptop in the News...AGAIN!

Somewhere deep in the WCCO-TV archive is footage shot in the dark and cold of the 1987 Minnesota Winter. WCCO was covering a pro-life march circling the Planned Parenthood in St. Paul. The media were particularly interested in a little seven-year-old bundled to the eyebrows in a snowsuit, her woolly mittens clutching a tiny picket sign stapled to a splintery two-by-four. Each time she trundled past the TV cameras in the cold, dark and snow, the WCCO cameramen quickly crouched to film her face.

That little protestor was me and thirty-five years later, I'm torn between tears of joy and nervous incredulity that at long last precious babies' lives will be saved. Millions of them.

Ottawa Native, Michael Grandlouis, Describes Life in Ottawa During the Convoy!

Have you ever wondered what life was like for Ottawa natives when the very first trucks of the Freedom Convoy rolled into town? Ottawa native, Michael Grandlouis, was on the ground and captured the footage and vibe of that joyous moment and the weeks that followed.

The two videos (scroll down!) form a documentary Michael prepared, as he says, "of my experiences at the 2022 Freedom Convoy living across the street....I could speak for weeks about the many experiences....I envy those who got to experience the overpasses, along the roads through the many towns. I’m not a driver, I’m just a guy who was there. Who walked the line. I’m keeping my promise to someone that I would share my story. For my friends. For the Truckers."
