Isn't that the question for all large scale protests after a week or so?So. . . what exactly are they protesting, anyhow?
Life imitates bad art.
The original intent gets lost in the hype.

I have been visiting this forum since 2008 and have yet to post a link , I will continue to not post links , thank you .Oh, I am hardly "all knowing and seeing" and I do learn a lot from reading this forum but, I do not repeat things which I cannot verify as being factual or true.
It is something that perhaps you should try and do LOL
So, your word is gold??? LOL I think not LOLI have been visiting this forum since 2008 and have yet to post a link , I will continue to not post links , thank you .
That's what happens when you depend on CBC for news.Looks like the one heading to Ottawa. I was not aware there was one specifically in Vancouver.
Whatever , I care not what you think of me .So, your word is gold??? LOL I think not LOL
Credibility has to be established and it seems you have failed to gain it.
So you better start getting your own groceries from the US. This is only the start of truckers getting fair value for their work.Yes you can.
That guy that brings food to to you has to go to the US to get it. That unvaccinated trucker cannot get into the US, let alone try to get back into Canada. That is the US regulation.
I got to meet Petros in the Rod&Gun in Parksville when he was staying there. First time I had to use my vaccination card.Yeah, for the first year plus, our household played things very close to the vest too. Following every rule within reason and avoiding almost all social contacts, etc…. But we’re years in now and vaccinated.
Interestingly, one of the very few contacts, outside of immediate family, and outdoors in the summer, so still following protocol and guidance set forth for Covid, was a very pleasant evening on our deck where Lisa & I got to meet Petros in person. It was very cool.

We’ve eaten in a restaurant about 1/2 a dozen times now since Covid happened (so in the last couple of years), and rare outings are masked up and the grocery store or pharmacy beyond me going to work (haven’t missed a single day of work during Covid).
As far as protocol for the health system in Saskatchewan, that I really can’t comment on as a close family member who is a nurse, when Covid first happened, due to a compromised immune system, Took a step back to wait things out. A couple years into this and she still waiting things out from home. Part of the reason we got our vaccinations early and often was so that we didn’t kill this family member accidentally (Not sure if that’s considered altruistic or not).
With respect to the testing kits, they are still easy to find in Saskatchewan (The rapid tests anyway), but we have kids in the middle of BC (Okanogan Valley), where as a few weeks back if you wanted even a rapid test you better know a guy who knows a guy because they were pretty much non-existent. If you had symptoms and you suspected that you had Covid, then you considered that you actually do and just isolate and make your close contacts aware, etc… & that was the same policy that relatives in Utah were told to follow as they didn’t have testing for the general public either at that time.
I don't depend on CBC. It is one of many news sources. And I take everything CBC covers with a huge grain of salt. I did not hear of the Vancouver protest on any of them. But given it's in Vancouver, it likely is of little interest to the news outlets in Ontario.That's what happens when you depend on CBC for news.
Not if you don't intentionally limit your perspective with willful ignorance to confirm your point of view. Most know what this is about, and I explained it for you pretty clearly in a previous post. The fact you aren't really getting it doesn't mean anything other than you may be a bit slow.Isn't that the question for all large scale protests after a week or so?

It started as a protest against the vaccinations required by Canada for Canadian truckers returning to Canada.Not if you don't intentionally limit your perspective with willful ignorance to confirm your point of view.

That is always possible. Our own media did its best to ignore the protest until after the event. 4 treehuggers blocking an intersection gets more coverage from TurdOWE's media.I don't depend on CBC.

We keep saying we’re going to but haven’t as yet .I got to meet Petros in the Rod&Gun in Parksville when he was staying there. First time I had to use my vaccination card.
A large gathering took place at the same time in Queens Park , I think that is in Toronto .I don't depend on CBC. It is one of many news sources.

There was also a large protest starting at the art gallery and made its way through the downtown core . Protesting mandates and lockdowns .That is always possible.

This protest was aimed at the provincial government about the piss poor maintenance of highways. Particularly snow removal throughout the interior. Highway maintenance has been private since the mid 80s, and snow removal is block funded, that is a set amount of cash for the season regardless of weather. So naturally the contractors do only the minimum specified in their contract.
Flash your headlights in support of the Lot Lizards!!If the longest truck convoy doesnt get your attention just wait till the lot lizards get organized.
