Official Convoy For Canada! (FB)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>There are many that have crossed our country in efforts to fundraise, draw attention to a particular cause, and there have been many ways that have been used from walking, running, horseback, unicycling, farm tractor and combine.<\/p>\n<p>Today a\u00a0\u00a0truck convoy has left Red Deer, Alta., on a four-day trek to Ottawa to take a message to politicians on Parliament Hill. Organizer Glen Carritt says\u00a0\u201cWe are a dedicated group that are organizing a rally from Red Deer, Alberta. This is a convoy traveling from all across Canada and uniting in Ottawa. The purpose is to show our concern to the current government that we oppose bill C48 and C69. We are in favour of pipelines to move our products in the oil and gas sector to the rest of Canada as well as the rest of the world. We are apposed to the current format of the carbon tax as well as the UN impact on Canadian borders.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wawa-news.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/52678065_10156314966803721_924702855351238656_n.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-large wp-image-19018\" src=\"https:\/\/wawa-news.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/52678065_10156314966803721_924702855351238656_n-464x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"464\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wawa-news.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/52678065_10156314966803721_924702855351238656_n-464x600.jpg 464w, https:\/\/wawa-news.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/52678065_10156314966803721_924702855351238656_n-232x300.jpg 232w, https:\/\/wawa-news.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/52678065_10156314966803721_924702855351238656_n.jpg 729w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 464px) 100vw, 464px\" \/><\/a>Jason Corbeil, a former Wawaite who now resides in Red Deer\u00a0is part of the team organizing this event, which saw 158 vehicles leave Red Deer this morning and collect vehicles along the way to Ottawa.
