Ben Haab is the director of a new documentary called UNACCEPTABLE? chronicling the 2022 FREEDOM CONVOY that captured the attention, hearts and minds of Canadians and the world.
"We are living Canadian history in real-time which is sure to go down in the books; the story is still being written. Our crew went to Ottawa to see first hand what was happening at the “Freedom Convoy to Ottawa 2022”. We started with the intention of gathering footage for a short five-minute summary of what was happening on the ground in Ottawa… we had no idea what this would become." - From the UNACCEPTABLE? website
