Crowdfunding platform GoFundMe has confirmed that the fundraising campaign created for truckers protesting against the various COVID-19 mandates and restrictions across Canada is the country’s second-largest ever on its platform, with donations reaching over $10 million.
Coordinated by “Freedom Convoy 2022” organizers Tamara Lich and Benjamin Dichter, the fundraising campaign, which seeks to cover the costs of fuel, food, and lodging for the truckers, came in second behind the bus crash campaign of the Humboldt Broncos in 2018, CTV News reported on Feb. 1.
