Thousands of people lining thehighways and overpasses on along the route , but yup all about the border . None so blindYes I do. If you are trying to make it about freedoms, anti vaxxers, et al you may be a wee bit right.
Fact still is that most truckers are vaccinated (as their association claims) so, yes, it is about being able to cross borders.
To be fair he don't care about US citizens as wellYup and if you think Joe cares about Canada then you must be a Democrat...believing in tooth faeries too LOL
Blind???Thousands of people lining thehighways and overpasses on along the route , but yup all about the border . None so blind
True but, Americans number one and everyone else last. As he claims, America First.To be fair he don't care about US citizens as well
Canadian's have a history of compliance until they hit their breaking pointBlind???
What is the premise of this protest? What started it?
If it is about vaccination requirements in Canada then the protest is all anti vaxxers as the huge majority of Canadians are for vaccinations. https://globalnews.ca/news/8532791/covid-unvaccinated-restrictions-tax-poll/
I think that people support truckers but they do not realize or have forgotten that the trans border issue was and is the initial reason for it. Some folks have turned into something it was not intended to be.
And yes, it is all about the border, Truckers are saying their rights to make a living is denied by the Canadian border restriction but in fact, it is the American border restrictions that keep them out of the US.
You are confusing Biden for TrumpTrue but, Americans number one and everyone else last. As he claims, America First.
Economics, toots. $500 million USD. That's the amount of trade that normally passes daily just along the Ambassador Bridge between Windsor and Detroit. The vast bulk of that is through trucking. In total Canada normally does $1 billion in trade per day with the US. There are no business people, travelers or other groups that have that kind of economic impact crossing the border.I'll be honest, I think the whole thing with truckers is kind'a BS.
Kind'a.
I do get though if exemptions are made for them, it'll be seconds before other 'groups' demand exemptions.
But I also think this is being used as an excuse to lash out at the Feds when the Feds aren't nearly the issue they're being made out to be.
And the whining about 'supply chains' and 'increased prices' isn't because, or just because, of the stupidity of the Feds.
It's a world wide issue.
It's a lack of actual corporate thinking issue.
It's the bosses of some of these truckers - or the people they ship for - causing the issue.
Feds are, at most, responsible for the mandates of vaccines to cross the national border and you know what, good. Again, if we exempt truckers, what's to say business people won't demand exemptions, or travellers, or other groups?
Sic transit gloria mundi.What's fucking sad is the groups that Feds were lauding about being "pandemic heroes" for the 1st year are now being cast as scapegoats.
Ain't that the truth.Sic transit gloria mundi.
Buy American...... America First, same shit different name.You are confusing Biden for Trump

It’s about a lot of things at this point but we know the catalyst..Yes I do. If you are trying to make it about freedoms, anti vaxxers, et al you may be a wee bit right.

ID requirements. How very fascist.It’s about a lot of things at this point but we know the catalyst..
“This is not about the vaccine, by the way. There’s nobody in here that’ll tell you it’s about vaccines on this entire convoy. We’ve got double jabbed, we’ve got single jabbed, we’ve got no jabbed, we’ve got the boosted,” said James Bauder, founder of the Canada Unity Foundation, one of the groups that is organizing the “Freedom Convoy 2022.”
“It’s not about the vaccine. It’s about the mandate…. We’re done with mandates.”

Freedom Convoy plans to gridlock Ottawa until all vaccine mandates repealed — National Post
Up to 2,000 trucks are due on Saturday, but there will be events every day until the convoy receives an answer from the governmentapple.news
“The narrative out there is that we’re a bunch of unvaccinated socialists and sort of separatists. I’m actually fully vaccinated. I have a passport with me right now, this allows me to do the things that the government says I can do. And that’s exactly what we’re fed up with. We shouldn’t have to have a vaccine passport.”
