Darrell Castle talks about the Canadian Truckers Protest, specifically from the standpoint of how the leadership of Canada reacts to people who disagree. It reminds him of what George Carlin once said, "Knowing how to sing the blues is fine, but what's really important is knowing why the blues need to be sung."

UNACCEPTABLE VIEWS
Hello this is Darrell Castle with today’s Castle Report. This is Friday the 11th day of February in the year of our Lord 2022 and today I will be talking about the Canadian Truckers Protest, specifically from the standpoint of how the leadership of Canada reacts to people who disagree. I realize that I am late to this party, but I still would like to put in my two cents worth on the topic.
The Castle Report was off the air last Friday because of Joan’s illness, so I appreciate all the prayers and well wishes you sent my way. She is doing much better now that she is two weeks into the Covid symptoms. She is basically just very tired, but she hopes to return to work next Monday and after 44 years of marriage I am very grateful for the old girl and what she has meant to my life.
You probably all know the story of the Canadian Truckers by now, and I’m sure you have seen the videos of thousands of trucks lining the highway for 50 miles all rolling into the capitol city of Ottawa. The truckers decided to protest vaccine mandates that were affecting their ability to work and feed their families. The mandates were also imposed by the United States, not just the Canadian government, The difference is that the US mandates, imposed by the Biden administration, restricted the Canadiens from crossing into the US and the Canadian mandate restricted their ability to work at all.
To recap what happened and is still happening 10’s of thousands of truckers from all across Canada, in the dead of a Canadian winter, stopped their work, formed into a convoy, and headed to Ottawa. These men and women are just common people like you and me. They are not at all like the gilded ruling elite that claims Prime Minister Justin Trudeau among its members. If you wonder what a common man is go to the Castle Report Index and scroll down to June 19, 2020, and listen to my report entitled Century of the Common Man.
Did Prime Minister Trudeau talk to them, provide food, water, and fuel to them, or even mention that they were deserving of any respect? No, he did none of those things, but what he did do was refuse to meet with them at all. He said they were an insult to memory and truth. He was apparently so confident that tyranny had completely displaced truth and he was therefore free to libel and defame any Canadian with different views. He said that unvaccinated Canadians were extremists, misogynists, and racists.
He apparently thought that he could continue defaming anyone he disagreed with as the truckers began their convoy. They were just a small fringe minority, he said who hold unacceptable views. Does that term make your blood boil as it does mine and like I’m sure it did the truckers. They are still in Ottawa and say they will be there for the duration. The Ottawa police have basically declared them to be terrorists and have stolen, oh I mean confiscated their property. Friendly people try to supply them with food and have even set up a community kitchen. The police take their fuel whenever they can get their hands on it. They arrest innocent citizens doing nothing but standing by to voice their support.
What of the Prime Minister, well he has disappeared since making his opening statement? I guess he is hiding in his safe house, so he won’t be forced to actually speak to real Canadians. He knows that freedom can triumph over tyranny if enough people demand it. As Ron Paul used to say, no army can stop an idea whose time has come. Even Elon Musk jumped in the debate when he tweeted, “It would appear that the so-called fringe minority is actually the government”.
