So the message is entirely generic. I guess anyone with that message can join. Should we all just join the convoy in a bid to "save the children" from these people?
Sometimes it is so dumb it works. The previous convoy was also a "pick your own cause" mess, and I think this helped the movement gather support because a large group of people thought it was for a bunch of good causes like worker rights. In reality it was a loon anti-vax, anti-liberal movement and the organizers wanted the government to resign and give them political positions. not kidding.
