"Some did use images of swastikas in their messaging." A lawyerly phrasing;.
Here is the media's best attempt to show swastikas at the Ottawa protest.
One guy put a swastika on a Canadian flag most probably to express the notion that the current government were Nazis--not to show his support for Nazis.
Another guy appeared for about five minutes with a Nazi flag, then disappeared. Anyone's guess who he was, whom he supported, and why he had the flag. True North is offering $6,500 to anyone who can help identify him.
I have also seen video of one guy with a modified confederate flag. He was wearing a mask, which pretty obviously sets him apart from the protesters, who are objecting to masks. Those nearby, the real protesters, seemed to confront him and drive him off.
Trudeau, the Liberals, and the mayor of Ottawa have made repeated claims as well that truckers stole food from a local soup kitchen. According to the truckers, some truckers asked for food, were given it, and assumed the soup kitchen was expressing their support, as many are. The truckers seem deluged by donations of food. Then the soup kitchen decided the good was stolen...
There are also complaints that the truckers are honking their horns day and night, preventing anyone from sleeping. This seems improbable, since the truckers too need to sleep.
If they hadn't experienced it before, now everyone in Canada should understand what gaslighting is like.
