33. Besides a really frozen weekend, the Speedway denied their request

Mar 2022

last week to remain past the cutoff off April 7 "as they have a racetrack to run." Last week they were hoping to find a new base of operations in the area... “We’re going to stay here until we find a spot that’s suitable for us that we can all agree on.”

Apparently things back at camp really went bad at Thursday night's meeting, with police having to be called to stop a fight over various "what now" issues, morale crashing. Friday was the nationally reported attack on the motorcycle-riding veteran because he flipped the bird at some of them. And over the weekend, with temps below zero, they heard that organizers of the "Freedom Convoy" in Ottawa were being socked with additional criminal charges.

A bunch have already pulled out today.
