010: Standing Tall: Tom Marazzo on Speaking Truth to Power

In this episode of "Dialogue over Division," I sit down with Tom Marazzo, a former Canadian military officer, computer software instructor, and provincial party candidate who gained attention for his involvement in the 2022 Canadian convoy protest.

Tom's journey from military service to activism sheds light on the importance of standing up for what you believe in, even in the face of adversity. After 25 years of service in the Canadian Armed Forces, Tom transitioned to a career in education. However, his principled stance on questioning his college's vaccine policy led to his termination in 2021.

Undeterred, Tom's commitment to his beliefs only grew stronger. He ran for a provincial party in an attempt to engage in his civic duty and emerged as a prominent figure in the convoy protest. Throughout our conversation, Tom shares insights into the challenges he faced and the lessons he learned along the way.

Additionally, Tom is the author of the #1 Best Seller "The People’s Emergency Act: Freedom Convoy 2022." In his book, he provides a firsthand account of the events surrounding the convoy protest, offering readers a deeper understanding of the motivations and struggles behind the scenes.
