加拿大知名记者安德鲁·洛顿现场一手材料实录，带你进入自由车队占据首都渥太华的三周内幕！
车队抵达渥太华前夕，街头给人的感觉根本不像抗议活动，简直是一场大型派对。空气中弥漫着喇叭声、柴油机尾气和兴高采烈的氛围。司机们环绕城市街区，鸣着喇叭，放着音乐，经过人行道，人群大声欢呼，司机们高喊"自由！"。向首都进发的大部队还在后面，自行前往的卡车司机早已捷足先登，在惠灵顿大街及其附近的小巷子里站稳了脚跟。他们大部分在三周内都不会离开这些地方。室内的景象也同样充满活力，原先只是在Facebook和Telegram群组中认识的人们一见面就拥抱在一起。过去两年大部分时间空空如也的酒店现在也全都人满为患。
在接下来的日子里，气氛愈发喜庆。一辆装有大功率音响系统的平板车成为主要舞台，整个一周的时间里演讲者和音乐人轮番登场，台下的人们载歌载舞直到深夜。
当卡车司机接近渥太华时，总理贾斯汀·特鲁多 (Justin Trudeau) 将他们斥为持有"不可接受的观点"的"少数边缘群体"。车队的组织者迅速谴责了他们中间的不良分子，那些人不能代表抗议者整体。然而，这些事情还是帮助批评者炮制了这样一种说法：车队是由一群无法无天、冷酷无情的白人至上主义者组成的。
这些争议在网上引起的轰动远超渥太华街头。
在二月里那个寒冷的周末，骑警将一名年长的原住民妇女撞倒在地，身穿防暴装备的警察向记者喷洒胡椒喷雾，政府征召拖车司机，银行冻结了数百个从未被指控，更不用说被定罪的人的账户。那个周末标志着车队在渥太华的活动进入了尾声。
最终，车队确实引发了一场政治清算，尽管主要是在加拿大保守党内。它还揭示了媒体与其报道对象之间的脱节。更重要的是，它标志着加拿大政治和疫情的一个转折点。
本书是我在渥太华的实地报道和对参与车队各个层面的人进行无数小时采访的产物。
在渥太华，媒体对车队的报道与我亲眼所见之间的差异一再让我震惊。部分原因是他们没有与主流媒体交流，抗议者和组织者在他们自己的故事中经常被忽略甚至被歪曲。我想了解他们的想法和动机，并按照他们的经历写下车队的情况。我试图在这里准确而诚实地做到这一点。
车队的故事引人入胜。这是一个关于加拿大人的故事，他们从开始普遍接受每一波疫情限制措施，到最后忍无可忍，并广泛宣称疫情结束。这是一群勇敢的卡车司机怎样使七国集团的首都屈膝臣服，一个自发的草根运动如何演变成一个拥有律师、会计师、公共关系战略、背后运作的警察谈判渠道，以及分布在渥太华酒店的多个指挥中心，动用资金规模达数百万美元的非凡运动。这是一场不仅在加拿大，而且在世界范围内产生了衍生品和模仿者的传奇壮举。
