‘We need to reclaim our democracies’: Christine Anderson, Eva Vlaardingerbroek urge Canadians to fight globalism

“This whole tour has been about making it my business. It’s also about getting involved in your municipality, at the local level, the school boards … we need to reclaim our democracies.”
Member of the European Parliament (MEP) Christine Anderson was in Ottawa Wednesday night to tell a full house at the Preston Event Centre that Canadians need to “reclaim their democracy.”
Anderson is visiting several cities in Canada and the US part of her “Make it Your Business North American Tour.” She was joined in Ottawa by Dutch lawyer and political pundit Eva Vlaardingerbroek. Other speakers included a pastor, a municipal councilor and a journalist.
Anderson told The Post Millennial that she was “very happy to be back in Canada and meeting with so many people who love freedom and want to work to preserve their freedom.”
The MEP became a hero to supporters of the Freedom Convoy when she castigated Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for snuffing out protests against his Covid-19 mandates and lockdowns with the Emergencies Act – which effectively installed martial law in sections of Canada.
Mr. Trudeau, you are a disgrace for any democracy,” she told the European Parliament in March 2022.
Anderson scathingly dismissed Trudeau for lecturing Europeans about democratic values, saying he acted like a dictator, crushed civil dissent and treated truckers like “terrorists.”
Freedom Convoy personality Chris Barber, who, along with Tamara Lich, is facing charges of mischief and counseling to commit mischief in an Ottawa courthouse, attended the speech along with about 1,500 people. Several speakers recognized Barber as a “Canadian hero.”
