Just to be sure, chronicle, I did a search on Bing for behavior that you claimed the "Freedom Convoy" is responsible for. I found this:

From throwing eggs to picking fights: five arrested in Vancouver amid "Freedom Convoy" | News (dailyhive.com)

The problem, however, is that some if not most of those who were arrested are likely to be counterprotesters:

- "A 29-year-old man was arrested near Robson and Burrard Street after VPD officers observed him wearing a balaclava and pulling a wagon full of egg cartons. The man, a US citizen from Washington State, had a knife in a sheath tied to his belt, and two eggs in his jacket pocket."

Sounds like Antifa to me.

- "A 29-year-old man was arrested after he stood in the middle of the road, told a driver in the protest convoy to go back to the valley, and started trying to push a vehicle backwards."

Confirmed counterprotester.

- "A 57-year-old man was arrested for mischief after he was seen kicking vehicles near Burrard and Davie Street."

Inconclusive based on that report.

- "A 30-year-old man was arrested when VPD officers observed him walking through a crowd of protesters and challenging people to fights."

Almost certainly a counterprotester. Otherwise the report would have said that the perp was walking through a crowd of counterprotesters.

- "A 28-year-old man was arrested for mischief near Nelson and Burrard Street after witnesses flagged down VPD officers and reported he was throwing eggs."

Inconclusive based on that report, but I wouldn't be surprised if egg-throwing came straight out of the left-wing counterprotest playbook.
