There were freedom convoys all over Canada yesterday! There were about 30 vehicles from my little town (including me in my little Honda) joining the Vancouver Island one about 20km from Parliament in Victoria. The convoy was already 40km long before we joined and it took a few hours to get there. Supporters everywhere along the way and a crowd of 10,000 at the Parliament. They were rolling in all day. It was amazing! I've never seen so many smiles!
