She said that when “the government is afraid of the people, that is what you call democracy. If the people are afraid of government, however, that’s what you call a tyranny.”
Anderson called the truckers and their supporters brave, applauding their “determination to stand up for freedom, democracy and the rule of law.”
She added that the Freedom Convoy has “given hope to so many people in the world.”
Poking fun at a term used by Justin Trudeau, she said, “You have shown the world that his small fringe minority is not all that small after all.” She opined that the protest has shown the world how to deal with government overreach effectively.
She called the Province of Nova Scotia “desperate” for making it illegal to gather on highway overpasses to support the convoy.
