The song was used in 2022 during the Canada convoy protest.[6] The song was used by counter-protesters to flood Zello channels, to troll protesters at the protests.[7][8]

Since Ram Ranch became a song of resistance in Ottawa, MacDonald has recorded a new rendition — one of over 540 riffs on the original — specifically about protesters in the nation's capital.[9]
