I know that many have instituted mandates for health care workers, feds, etc, but has any country ordered all citizens to be vaccinated with covid 19 vaccines?

For cross-border truckers. It’s an agreement betw the US and Canada that truck drivers have to be vaccinated to enter the country.

90% of Canadian cross-border truckers are reported to have been vaccinated. So this isn’t about their reluctance to be vaccinated. It’s the mandate. One can be pro-vax and anti-mandate.

Yes. I am personally pro life. Political Loy pro choice. No mandates. No mandatory sanding. No mandatory abortion waiting period or telling me they want to know when my last period was.

Bodily autonomy! Always.

His power will be checked by his own government…..the cracks are already showing. He’s immensely unpopular and won’t recover. He’s behaving like a scared, petty dictator and there is no way that Canadians will tolerate this much longer.

The trucker movement is nowhere near as large or popular as you seem to think it is.

There were no terrorists here. But if there is some big punitive backlash coming, would guess a lesson learned here is that you don’t get anything by playing nice.

That's not true, it just takes awhile. Look at Martin Luther King Jr. and the civil rights movement of the 60's. Do you think it just took one protest to end state-sponsored racial segregation?

Lol comparing civil rights and racial segregation to these white national terrorists? We all know if you and these people have their way there would be no civil rights and a return to segregation and most likely slavery.

The comparison is apt. We are talking about freedom here. Freedom to make your own decisions about your health and what goes into your body. And, I have to LOL at your claim that these people wish to have no civil rights and a return to segregation. You truly do not understand what this protest was all about.
Trudeau has shown he is the tyrant that many feared. I hope he is forced to hang his head in shame in the near future.

It is not at all the same. State-sanctioned discrimination based on race is not at all comparable to requiring reasonable public health measures during a pandemic. You people are out of your minds.

WTF is wrong with America? Why are we discussing a group of goons who protested a policy in their country?

Maybe BCS Canadians are so snotty about the U.S? And the Trumpers and the 6th of January? Do you know that some of my Canadian friends asked me if I voted for Trump and told me that they could not see me if I did? That they are so civilized while some Americans were clearly nasty, racists?
And explained to me how horrified they were about what was happening in the U.S? And how terribly the U.S. was handling the pandemic when they were doing so awesome? Yep, they need to get off their high and mighty judgy horse.

They're right, though.

It's only murder if you kill someone in a manner that's contrary to law. So, a third option might be killing criminals in a manner consistent with the law.

AND?

The Trump lunatics storming the capitols has 59 pages and this one 69? What country do you care about? Yes, Jan 6th was way way more horrible and you should care more for that one in case you want to live in a functioning democracy than what Canada and Mexico is doing...

European here. Stupid American, EVERYONE is looking down their nose at you and your Trump. What you don't realize is that the US has had the Covid mortality of a third world country, unlike in other developed nations. If you have two neurons to rub together, you might connect the dots between behavior and mortality, and the government's role in protecting citizen lives.

Period. Full stop. The discussion ends here.

There’s a much bigger thread started on January 6 that’s 200+ pages. Plus many others. The one you’re talking about is just about the Congressional committee that’s investigating.

They're right, though.

Right? To think they are morally superior? Nope, look at them now.

And yet, much of Eastern Europe did not enforce much of lockdowns and they have less mortality than most of the Western European countries. How do you explain that? And much of Africa had no lock downs and very few deaths. Tell me how come?

The fencing has returned around the Capitol. (The Truckers are coming to DC.)

But, Canadians are not any more superior than the U.S. You are all thinking of Ottawans and Torontonians, not of the actual majority of Canadians. Albertans, Saskatchewan, the rest of it all, northern Ontario and Quebec, etc.
No, they are not better than the U.S. you just see a few of their liberals on the news.
The rest are the same as Trumpers. Heck, I can't get a massage even in Ontario without listening to a Canadian version of a Trumper going off the rails. However, massages are good when she goes off the rails.
