I'm on the ground in Halifax, observing the #FluTruxKlan temper tantrum. Already I've observed police arresting a lone counter-demonstrator, and was literally told by a cop to "join the group".

I'm monitoring their Zello channel (Halifax Convoy 2022) and appears the convoy is a bit fragmented:

They caused an accident on Quinpool, emergency vehicles struggled to get through:

Unsatisfied with merely totalling a car and gridlocking Quinpool, they are now "slow-rolling" on a 100 series highway.

One thing that struck me about the "convoy" is how many big rigs there weren't. Mostly cars and the odd pavement princess. Saw Lexus, Mercedes, Land Rover, and lots of $80kish f-150s #nspoli #FluTruxKlan

Monitoring the Zello: the #FluTruxKlan are now leaving Bayers Lake to go back into downtown halifax to "slow-roll" by the empty Legislature. On a sunday. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

#Halifax #nspoli

There's already talk on the Zello of another #PavementPrincessParade next weekend. #nspoli #FluTruxKlan

The, uh, class consciousness of this supposed working-class revolt is really something to behold.

#FluTruxKlan #nspoli

I'm in for the night, but I have about an hour of gopro footage to set through, including the arrest of the lone counter-protestor who blocked the #FluTruxKlan and held a cardboard sign as vehicles descended Barrington towards downtown.

I was also sure to get footage of commericially-owned or other obvious business vehicles participating in the #FluTruxKlan, which I'll be rolling out in the coming days.

The google reviews will continue until morale improves. #nspoli

There were so few actual transport trucks in today's #PavementPrincessParade that the organizers were able to simply say "follow the red truck" on Zello as an instruction to their drooling fellow tantrum-throwers.

#FluTruxKlan #nspoli

Someone named Brian Lee McKenna just ID'd himself as an organizer on Zello and asked #FluTruxKlan people to follow him. Does that make him a Grand Wizard? #nspoli

Organizers telling #FluTruxKlan to "block off next weekend", suggesting at least a short-term occupation is in the cards.

One of the #FluTruxKlan mentions on Zello that he'd been to Ottawa and that it was "huge for him".

Behold! The vanguard of the working class. #LandRover #FluTruxKlan

Zello Grand Wizards explaining how prohibiting most participants from actually talking is, of course, "free speech".

Of course.

#FluTruxKlan

The zello chat is now centered around how the "FUCK TRUDEAU" #TonkaTantrum channel is, "PG", of course.

Here's a photo of the brave counter-protester who stood in front of a column of raged-out rednecks in pickup trucks.

This is from their Zello channel, shared ostensibly by the driver.

This is the kind of bravery that will be required of us.

#FluTruxKlan #TonkaTantrum #nspoli

What became of this courageous person?

Well, you see, Blocking Traffic Is Against The Law - except when it isn't, of course.

C'mon - you know *exactly* what happened, and you know who did it.

#FluTruxKlan #GoHomeConvoy #DefundThePolice

Literally: as the lone protester who just faced down a mob of enormous vehicles was bundled into a police car, she shouted to onlookers, "get vaccinated, it saves lives".

That happened today in our city, right in front of me.

#FluTruxKlan #DefundThePolice

Are we really still to believe HRP "protects" us? The #tonkatantrum types sure seem to think the cops are on their team:

The jokes write themselves #FreeSpeech #FluTruxKlan #tonkatantrum #nspoli #FreeFreedomyFreedomers

Local trucking company @SeaboardT were featured on convoytraitors.ca but have since publicly disavowed the #TonkaTantrum and have been removed from the site.

I've deleted my 1-star review and left them a 5-star instead.

#FluTruxKlan

You better believe we had some gun nuts at the Halifax #FluTruxKlan #TonkaTantrum, RW loonies trying to import US-style gun laws.

Where would we be if they got their way?
