"Not only the American media, the Canadian media as well. They’re spinning their own narrative," Belton said."This isn’t a cult … The federal government, the city of Ottawa, all those organizations that are out to get us right now, maybe that’s the cult." Belton, who drives a 2015 Mack Pinnacle, said convoy protestors are simply hard-working people who want to get back to work.
"People in the liberal media, the guys that have that platform, the Scarboroughs, the CNN anchors, they never have to worry about this stuff because they’re already set and paid, they’re already part of the machine. They don’t have to worry if they’re going to make it to the next day with the paycheck they already have," Ilsley said."My guys have to worry, do they get to eat next week?"The protests began in Vancouver on Jan. 23.
