The Impact of Omitting Our Histories in History Class

Let's talk about the "Freedom" Convoy
It's been about a year since Trudeau used the Emergency Act to finally disperse the three-week-long Ottawa Occupation that terrorized the people of Ottawa.

Which begs the question, which one of these wealthy politicians and white cis-het men is correct?
