    The CN and CP lines going along trans Canada are nothing but containers I guess with the reduction of branch lines more trucking needed out of rail yards. The days of a coal car and lumber car being dropped off at your local village are long gone.

    Don't the poorest countries suffer the most that's where all this stuff is made now ? People going hungry and being poor has dropped off now for years so if world governments are trying to really fix things they are heading the wrong way. Maybe I heard wrong but GDP numbers increased in North America last month. To much stuff being hauled in 1 ton vans daily by guys that make more than guys driving big rigs. The estimated 50,000 shortage of class 1 drivers in North America is coming home to roost.

    All by design and most still think it's about the wuflu. The globalists are laughing they're asses off at how well they handled us. Crazy conspiracy theories right, all while they conspire in the open.

    “Building back better means getting support to the most vulnerable while maintaining our momentum on reaching the 2030 agenda for sustainable development,” says Trudeau. “This is our chance to help your pre-pandemic efforts to reimagine economic systems that actually address global challenges like extreme poverty, inequality, and climate change.”

    Trudeau added that: “Canada believes that a strong, coordinated response across the world and across sectors is essential. This pandemic has provided an opportunity for a reset.”

    You also gotta wonder who benefits from the inevitable collapse.

    The answer to that may help determine where this is going.

    The fallout is going to be cataclysmic.

    How ironic - the wealthiest countries will suffer the most and the poorer countries, the least impacted.
