    How is it truck drivers who are in short supply because of many reasons feel its a good use of their time and resources driving across Canada when they should be doing their job instead of adding to the shortage of trucks. Do they think they should be taking a vacation in the middle of a crisis? Who are these truckers who have so much time to do nothing but protest for a week or two?

    The vast majority of people support covid vaccines and mandates. If some truckers don't like it, they can complain to their MLA or MP or whoever they want.

      Where whould it go if they contracted thier MP?
      Do you think even the BC MP's are going to Mr Treudau to tell him anything he doesn't want to hear?
      Political Suicide.

        As long as we live in a free country the majority rules. We all have the opportunity to express our opinion but in the end it is our elected officials who make decisions on the most benefit for society as a whole.

              This is one anti vaxx protest that might actually catch people’s attention. A lot of what consumers buy arrives on a truck. Listening to Roy Green yesterday, only caught a couple minutes, but roughly 25% of Canadian truckers are not vaccinated. The guest said that could mean as high as 30000 just Canadian truckers affected. Many many more in the U.S. If Canadians see empty shelves and increased prices this could certainly blow up in Trudeau’s face. Calgary CTV news headline:”Fundraiser for rally to protest vaccine mandate on truckers exceeds $1.6 million.” Truckers are by themselves most of the time. The vaccine does not stop infection or transmission. You do make one correct point Chuck2, we are already short of truckers. Extremely stupid policy in my opinion. We already have high inflation, we should be doing everything we can to heal the supply chain not throw another wrench into it!!

                These gullible truckers have been conned by people like you into believing vaccines are unsafe. Your misguided political or philosophical agenda is the real cause of this disruption and you should be held accountable.

                  17% got us where we are now.
                  He doesn't represent Canadians. Here represents the small special interest groups that he panders to and will always vote for him.

                  And the support of the NDP who will never get enough votes to be the official opposition prop him up to get policies enacted that very few supported with votes at election time.
                  It's the best system there is but it is being exploited for the few.

                    Unless they are crossing the US border they don't need to be vaccinated unless their employer requires it.

                    The US now requires truckers to be vaccinated as well.

                    Most people in Canada who are eligible are vaccinated.

                    Feedlots are going to run out of feed and the "vacationing" truckers are driving to Ottawa?

                    The vast majority of people have had enough of the anti vaxer nonsense. They will not support antivaxer truckers who refuse to work in a crisis.

                      Having run out of rational reasons not to get vaccinated the go to cry" Freedom". The question is freedom from what. A possible life saving safe vaccine? These truckers have lost all credibility with the public. There is a 2/3 decrease in illness with a boosted individual. How many more days saved from illness and loss of work hours?

                        Actually it doctors and politicians that lost credibility to the public.

                          They were working just fine, until the know-nothing virtue signalers in Ottawa decided to stick their nose in it.

                                Again with irrelevant quotes. Just trying to justify your own blindness. Resorting to stupid cartoons pretty much sums up how logical your arguments are.
