650 Canadians come out to support fundraiser for Freedom Convoy organizer Chris Barber

The event raised $32,000 for Freedom Convoy organizer Chris Barber’s ongoing legal battles against the Trudeau government.

Over 600 Canadians came out in support of Freedom Convoy organizer Chris Barber, raising $32,000 for his ongoing legal battle.

The March 11 event in the Stockade Building in Swift Current, Saskatchewan featured 650 Canadians who gathered to see Barber, one of the leaders of the 2022 Freedom Convoy protests against COVID mandates, according to local media outlet Swift Current Online.

“Basically holding us personally responsible for everyone that was in Ottawa in the protest of February of 2022,” summarized Barber regarding his charges.

“I’m just an average Canadian. When the mandates to cross the international border, the federal mandates, I just decided to say ‘no’ and a bunch of people stood with me,” described Barber. “I’m forever grateful for the friendships we’ve made now.”

A trucker from Saskatchewan, Barber was heavily involved in the 2022 Freedom Convoy, which saw thousands make their way to Ottawa in protest of COVID vaccine mandates and lockdowns.

The evening included dinner and live entertainment in a musical performance by ‘Blind Monkey’ featuring Freedom Convoy organizer Tamara Lich. Attendees also had the opportunity to meet and speak with Barber.

“Very happy of the support that is here. Honestly without the support right now, we’d be in a pile of trouble right now,” he said.

Despite his ongoing legal battle, Barber revealed that he does not regret his participation in the 2022 protest, explaining, “I know it was the right decision to make, and I’d make it again.”

Currently, Barber is suing the federal government of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for freezing his bank account and hundreds of others involved with the demonstrations after a recent court ruling declared the Emergencies Act (EA) was unconstitutional and unreasonable.

The EA controversially allowed the government to freeze the bank accounts of protesters, conscript tow truck drivers, and arrest people for participating in assemblies the government deemed illegal.

On February 14, 2022, the day the EA was invoked, Canadian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance Chrystia Freeland mandated certain bank accounts be frozen under the EA. In total, close to $8 million in funds from 267 people were locked. Additionally, 170 Bitcoin wallets were frozen.

The freezing of bank accounts by Freeland without a court order was an unprecedented action in Canadian history and was only allowed through the Liberal government’s invocation of the never-before-used EA.

As a result of Freeland’s order, Barber’s bank account was frozen. He owns a trucking company, and according to the lawsuit, the frozen bank account resulted in missed payments as well as defaulting on loans, which negatively impacted his credit rating.

In early 2022, the Freedom Convoy saw thousands of Canadians from coast to coast come to Ottawa to demand an end to COVID mandates in all forms. Despite the peaceful nature of the protest, Trudeau’s government enacted the EA on February 14, 2022. Trudeau revoked the EA on February 23.

Barber and Lich have been involved in a lengthy trial after being charged and taken to court by the government. The trial has been put on hold, with its resumption date uncertain. It is also not yet clear how the recent court ruling will affect the trial.

LifeSiteNews reported just over a week ago that Lich, Barber and a host of others filed a $2 million lawsuit against the government.

Freedom Convoy lawyer Keith Wilson said Section 24 of Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms “gives Canadians the right to sue their government for damages when Charter rights are violated.”

“Doing so affirms the seriousness of respecting Charter rights and is intended to deter future governments from breaching Canadians’ fundamental rights,” he said.

An investigation into the use of the EA, as per Canadian law, was launched by Trudeau. However, it was headed by Liberal-friendly Judge Paul Rouleau, who led the Public Order Emergency Commission. Unsurprisingly, the commission exonerated Trudeau.

Federal and provincial politicians have come out in support of the truckers. Last week, LifeSiteNews reported that newly elected Conservative Legislative Assembly of Alberta (MLA) member Eric Bouchard praised the Freedom Convoy protesters for doing what “was right” in opposing to COVID mandates.

COVID-19

Top COVID doctor given one of Canada’s highest honors

Published on July 2, 2025

From LifeSiteNews

By Clare Marie Merkowsky

Dr. Theresa Tam received the Order of Canada for her controversial COVID-19 response as the nation’s chief public health officer.

Canada’s former top medical advisor, known for her promotion of masking and COVID vaccines, has received one of Canada’s highest honors.

On June 30, Governor General Mary Simon awarded Dr. Theresa Tam, Canada’s former Chief Public Health Officer (CPHO), the Order of Canada award for her work implementing dangerous COVID regulations, including masking and experimental COVID shots.

“For decades, Theresa Tam has striven to advance global and national public health as a pediatric infectious disease specialist and public servant,” the press release read.

“Her tenure as Canada’s chief public health officer has been characterized by her commitment to health equity and highlighted by her leadership role in the country’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic,” it continued.

The award, given to Canadians who have made extraordinary contributions to the nation, is Canada’s second-highest civilian honor.

Tam’s reception of the award comes just weeks after she stepped down as CPHO, ending her eight-year tenure in the position.

In the early months of 2020, Tam became well-known by Canadians for leading the country’s response to the COVID “pandemic” and pushing arbitrary and dangerous regulations.

Initially, Tam assured Canadians that masking was unnecessary, ineffective, and could even pose health threats.

However, shortly after, Tam changed her policy, telling Canadians that they should even wear masks during sex, a practice which has not been proven to be effective in preventing the spread of COVID and can cause myriad health issues.

In 2022, after thousands of Canadians reported adverse effects from the vaccine, Tam announced that the federal government was reviewing all federal COVID vaccine mandates, claiming that Canada’s Public Health Agency has never outright endorsed mandatory vaccination.

Tam’s remarks come after more than 1,000 federal workers have been suspended without pay because they chose not to get the COVID jabs or disclose whether they had them per the Privacy Act.

The Order of Canada was also awarded to British Columbia Provincial Health Officer Bonnie Henry, who is known not only for her heavy-handed COVID response, but also for promoting drug use throughout the province.

In 2023, hundreds of British Columbia health care workers sued Henry for ongoing COVID shot mandates preventing them from working. Under Henry, vaccine passports were implemented which required residents to show digital proof of vaccination to enter gyms, restaurants, and other “non-essential” facilities.

Henry also pushed the experimental and dangerous vaccine on children as young as five, despite that fact that clinical trials would not be completed for another two years.

Additionally, in 2024, Henry recommended that British Columbia expand its “safe supply” program to legalize fentanyl and heroin, despite evidence that the program is not working and has worsened the provinces drug crises.

New Peer-Reviewed Study Affirms COVID Vaccines Reduce Fertility

Published on July 1, 2025

Here’s what the numbers reveal, and what it could mean for humanity

What was once dismissed as a “conspiracy theory” now has hard data behind it.

A new peer-reviewed study out of the Czech Republic has uncovered a disturbing trend: in 2022, women vaccinated against COVID-19 had 33% FEWER successful conceptions per 1,000 women compared to those who were unvaccinated.

A “successful conception” means a pregnancy that led to a live birth nine months later.

The study wasn’t small. It analyzed data from 1.3 million women aged 18 to 39.

Here’s what the numbers reveal, and what it could mean for humanity.

Subscribe to Vigilant Fox

First, let’s talk about the study.

It was published by Manniche and colleagues in the International Journal of Risk & Safety in Medicine, a legitimate, peer-reviewed journal respected for its focus on patient safety and pharmacovigilance.

The study was conducted from January 2021 to December 2023 and examined 1.3 million women aged 18–39. By the end of 2021, approximately 70% of them had received at least one COVID-19 vaccination, with 96% of the vaccinated cohort having received either the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine.

By 2022, a stark difference was clear.

The vaccinated cohort averaged around 4 successful conceptions per 1,000 women per month.

That’s a staggering 33% LESS than the 6 per 1,000 seen in the unvaccinated group.

This means that for every 2 vaccinated women who successfully conceived and delivered a baby, 3 unvaccinated women did the same.

In 2022, unvaccinated women were 1.5 times MORE likely to have a successful conception.

Again, that’s a conception that led to a live birth nine months later.

The authors did not jump to the conclusion that their study proved causation. They cited that other factors may have played a role, such as self-selection bias

However, the researchers noted that self-selection bias does not explain the timing and scale of the observed drop in fertility.

Moreover, birth rates in the Czech Republic dropped from 1.83 per 1,000 women in 2021 to 1.37 in 2024, adding further evidence that the COVID-19 vaccines may be contributing to the decline in fertility.

That downward trend, the researchers argue, supports the hypothesis that something beyond individual decision-making may be affecting conception rates.

As such, they argue that the study’s results warrant a closer and more thorough examination of the impact of mass vaccination.

If this study holds true, and vaccinated women are really much less likely to have successful conceptions, the implications for humanity are massive.

Millions of babies could be missing each year as a result of COVID vaccination, and recent data from Europe and beyond already point to a deeply disturbing trend.

NOTE: Europe experienced a sharper decline in births than usual from 2021 to 2023.

Live births fell from 4.09 million in 2021 to 3.67 million in 2023, marking a 10.3% decline in just two years.

The new Czech study adds to growing evidence that COVID vaccines may be contributing to a dramatic decline in fertility, just as many feared all along.
