In this episode, we sit down with Benjamin J. Dichter (@BJdichter), a key figure in the 2022 Canadian Freedom Convoy, to dive into the wild story of how truckers took a stand against mandates—and how the government hit back by freezing bank accounts.
BJ shares firsthand insights on how Bitcoin stepped in as a lifeline, keeping funds flowing when traditional systems shut down. We also explore the bigger picture: why people resist when you try to show them a better way with money, and how Bitcoin challenges everything we’ve been taught about finance. From the streets of Ottawa to the world of decentralized currency, this conversation is packed with real-world lessons and a glimpse into the future of freedom.
BJ is the co-author of Honking for Freedom: The Trucker Convoy That Gave Us Hope, a book that pulls back the curtain on the convoy’s impact. Grab your copy here: HonkingForFreedom.com.
