Justin Trudeau's government fabricated false information to illegally frame truckers who protested health mandates in Canada

A new scandal weighs on the shoulders of the progressive Canadian government. An investigation by the Public substack revealed that Canada's intelligence agencies fabricated false information to indict truck drivers who protested against Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's health measures in 2022.

According to Public, in addition to illegally indicting the truckers in its territory, the government of Canada also shared false information with the nations that make up the "Five Eyes" intelligence alliance, which, in addition to Canada, includes countries such as the United States, United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand.

The declaration of war against truckers

In 2022, Canadian truckers started a revolution that turned the entire Western world upside down.

From the Yukon region, located in the extreme northwest of Canada, to the capital, Ottawa, thousands of drivers took to the main roads of the North American country to peacefully demand the end of the restrictive health mandates imposed by the Justin Trudeau government under the excuse of the pandemic.

As the days passed, the truckers were not left alone in their magnanimous effort; a large part of Canadian civil society supported them. Many experts considered the protests the largest in the country's history. A transversal civil uprising never seen in a country without a tradition of protest.

The Canadian movement against mandatory vaccination mandates was so inspiring that it fueled another series of protests in major Western countries against the most radical health measures, including the United States, which imitated the renowned "Freedom Convoy."

However, despite the almost absolute support for the demonstration, the Trudeau government did not recognize the right to legitimate protest and went against the protesters from the beginning, falsely accusing truck drivers of being part of a far-right movement and then repressing them with the help of allied media, Public revealed.

The mainstream Canadian press, funded in part by the government with large sums of money, pushed the official narrative that the Teamster movement was racist, fascist or far-right. Trudeau made public comments accusing conservative lawmakers of supporting a "fringe group" with "unacceptable" views, branding protesters across the country as radicals.

Three weeks after the tremendous nationwide protest began, with roads and cities wholly taken over by truckers and Canadian civil society, the Trudeau government approved a questioned national "Emergency Law" until "order is restored throughout the country."

"Central to Trudeau's invocation of the Act was the alleged threat of right-wing extremism and violence, but new documents that podcaster Jeremy Mackenzie obtained through Canada's freedom of information law show that this drastic measure was based on fabricated intelligence," reads the Public investigation, which has revealed documents that show how the intelligence agencies of Western powers have instrumentalized their resources to attack ordinary citizens.

In the specific case of truckers in 2022, the invocation of said Emergency Law was a scandal at the time because it had not been activated since World War II. The law gave extraordinary powers to the government to override civil liberties to restore public order.

Specifically, the law allowed the Canadian government to detain protesters, freeze their bank accounts, confiscate assets and dismantle peaceful blockades. These measures were applied for weeks under the watchful eye of the Trudeau Administration.

"This scandal appears to add to a growing number of cases revealing the politicization of intelligence and security agencies across Five Eyes nations to achieve ideological, political, and counter-populist goals," stated Public, which also detailed that it has not yet received a response by intelligence agencies or the Trudeau government regarding the scandal.
