This is seemingly turning into a real worldwide thing. The media has been downplaying this quite a bit, but a lot of independent footage has been coming out France showing the devastation, riots and the brutality. Sweden has joined in on a large scale protest as well, with Finland rumoured to be getting up and going.
Here in Canada, it’s been slow but the traction has been picking up. Yellow vests Canada, our Facebook group, has been up for 6 days and now sits at 44,000 (46 now) members and is now climbing rapidly. We have independent chapters for each province that is busy organizing weekly gatherings to protest. Most reasons include our carbon tax, the UN migration pact, hidden scams, our ridiculous deficit, the pipeline, etc. In a nutshell, whatever you feel is wrong with our government and country, is what’s being protested. Many Canadians are fed up with the elitist bullshit. We are fed up with Trudeau.
The local media of course hasn’t been reporting it for very obvious reasons, but there have been several large protests throughout the country this last week numbering in the thousands. It’s been hushed because our politicians don’t want this becoming a thing here in Canada. Videos have been edited or removed from Facebook to minimize any fallout and for containment . (I’ve personally witnessed two such videos so far today) Stories are not getting written, and posts are being removed. Other methods of communication are currently being considered just in case Facebook nukes the entire group.
Anyway, we have a gathering planned for this coming Saturday (Dec 15) at 11am mst (unsure of est) at all major cities and dozens of larger towns, at the whatever local governmental building. We are hoping for a significant turnout this time around.
I encourage everyone here who wants change to consider, at the very least, to join the Canadian yellow vests group

get your voice heard, show up if you can. We are making serious noise, they can hear us in parliament hill, and they’re beginning to squirm.
