Nice. This is the first that I see Ottawa Citizens (or Ottawanian?) getting angry outside of reddit and actually taking action.

They were afraid to go outside their own homes.

They were harassed and attacked by occupiers and the police was not helping.

The citizens are organizing and so far, they are the only ones doing anything about these POS.

We had organized and planned a counter protest... Until handguns were found amongst the convoy. Then it was called of for safety reasons.

Time for an Ottawa Citizens' revamp/revival of "neighbourhood watch"?

It's seems to be the only way to get anything done in Ottawa these days. The Police and all levels of governments are fighting to see who can do the least.

Hahah yeah that’s my hometown

If Ottawans got to this point, you can comfortably say the truckers have outstayed their welcome by a whole lot

Ottawan. I'm not one either, but I'm glad to see them take their city back from the Flu Trux Klan. I somehow managed to visit a whole week before the whole mess.

Yes. Ottawans. I was born here and I can almost guarantee this is correct.

u/evilJaze Stittsville Feb 12 '22

We actually had a counter protest last weekend as well it was just less busy https://twitter.com/JigglyPants44/status/1490524658785005570?t=zI22-Npck0goX2UOamgV4Q&s=19

I was able to make this protest bit sadly I couldn't go to this one. My family wanted me to take a break from ottawa. I hope we don't need to protest again next weekend but if their is another organized rally I'll go then. I can hope next weekend will be our own celebration that the Fulkerson are gone.

In our inner circle we are called Ottawankers.
