“There I was: no cash, no access to my credit cards, nothing. And I left on a Monday morning. I had other jobs that I had to take care of while I was there, and I had no money for gas. I had no money for lodging, nothing for food ... For what? What did I do?”

In 2022, Eddie Cornell was at home in New Brunswick, Canada, when he began to hear chatter of a trucker’s convoy making its way to Ottawa to protest the COVID lockdowns and vaccine mandates.

“And I thought, ‘I need to be there,’” says Mr. Cornell.

Little did he know that he would become publicly marked and have his bank account frozen.

“I felt betrayed. I've never been convicted of a crime, I wasn't charged with a crime. And yet my government found it necessary to label me and freeze everything I own,” says Mr. Cornell.

Today, he is the co-founder of <a href="https://veterans4freedom.ca/">Veterans for Freedom</a>, and has filed a civil lawsuit against the Trudeau administration.

“Citizens and ex-military people didn't return any violence—nothing, not a punch, nothing. And to be beaten that way and treated like that. The world saw. They know what happened,” says Mr. Cornell. “Even the police intelligence units were saying, ‘This is the most peaceful thing that we could possibly imagine. There's no violence here.’ So, the government tried to paint a very different narrative.”

We discuss the recent Supreme Court case, which ruled that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s use of the Emergency Act during the Freedom Convoy was unconstitutional. We also discuss Mr. Cornell’s current case against Mr. Trudeau, and what the media got wrong in their coverage of the truckers' protest.
