Mentions of COVID-19 having a 99.9% success rate have been a recurring theme at these rallies.

Donald Trump and QAnon references – "where we go one, we go all," a quote from a 1996 Jeff Bridges movie White Squall,which before QAnon was known largely for how much time its all-male cast spent topless – also made an appearance at the event.

In addition to signs denouncing news and the media, Trudeau, Doug Ford, and Canada's chief public health officer Dr. Theresa Tam, was also a target of some of the messages.

Signs questioning science also made an appearance.

There were children there too; one was spotted carrying a sign that read “Moms against masks!”
