Hello and welcome to Broconomics. Now, as we often cover on Lotus Eaters, Western governments, especially in the Anglo-Sphere, seem to have decided that things like democracy, free speech, thinking for yourself, are very outdated concepts. And in order to protect democracy, by which they mean themselves, they're going to have to come down on us increasingly hard if we exercise our ability to think

or question the narrative in any way. I've recently been made aware of a particularly unfortunate

case pertaining to the Canadian truckers, which of course we supported very much. And in order to

speak about that, I've got Gord McGill on the line. Gord, thanks for joining us.

Oh, thanks for having me, sir.

Pleasure to be here.

So, as I understand, you are, you work Canadian, you become American, and you're also a trucker.

Have I ever got that right?

Mostly, yeah.

I haven't got my American citizenship yet, but I have been living here for almost 10 years.

Uh, married an American lady.

We moved here full time in 2016.

I have been a trucker my entire life.

Uh, I went home to support the freedom convoy and show solidarity, uh, during that, um that epic, very based and very legitimate protest

in 2022.

And I've sort of been writing about it ever since.

And on your Twitter handle, you've got this photo of you with, you know, I don't want to

call it a truck because it looks more like a bloody train to me.

You don't seriously drive that thing to you.

I mean, it must be...

I used to.

That was, that photo's from Australia.
