There is barely anything in the media about this. But, it seems to be a huge thing. When it is reported, it is as an anti vaccinate mandate protest, not an anti-vaccine protest. 85% of Canadian truckers are vaccinated. For two years, they were to be thanked, now they are dissidents.
Others call it a convoy against mandates. What do you think about it? Keep in mind that it was around -30C in Canada in most areas. It warmed up today! Regardless of what you think or what I even think, the site is something to behold. I guess my inner trucker just loves the sight of this over 60 km-long convoys. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5q_MVT4d4I&t=38s |
I grew up in the north where it gets very, very cold. You dress for it and take precautions. I think everyone is tired of the pandemic is what I think. I´m not sure what they hope to get out of this. The video didn´t really state what they were protesting exactly or what they wanted the government to do. What are their demands? It seemed rather vague actually. |
My Canadian friends refer to it as The Flu Trux Klan
I don’t think these clowns represent most truckers. It’s all about cultural grievances, Canada-style. Definitely indicative of an urban-rural divide. |
What an intellectually lazy insult. Your Canadian friends are dolts. |
Hilarious! Unvaxxed truckers getting sick is one of the big reasons for supply chain shortages. I guess that's "owning the libs" tho. |
blue collar people are so stupid! |
Most blue collar people are smart enough to get vaccinated. These truckers don’t represent anyone but themselves. They do not reprend blue collar workers. |
Why is Trudeau calling them a fringe movement with unacceptable views if it is not a big thing? And then claiming he must isolate due to covid exposure while fully vaxed? They are arriving in Ottawa on Saturday and maybe tonight.
That is against his own rules; you only isolate if vaccinated if you start to feel sick. Otherwise, you are supposed to go to work. |
Except according to the report, these truckers ARE vaccinated. |
Sure, that sounds perfectly rational and logical. "GODDAMIT I'M NOT GONNA GET THE VACCINE THAT I ALREADY GOT AND I'M GONNA CONVOY ACROSS THE COUNTRY IN PROTEST AGAINST GETTING THE VACCINE THAT I ALREADY GOT!!!" ![]() |
You are showing your ignorance. People are not against vaccines. They are opposed to vaccine mandates. |
Mabe not so fringe? |

When you protest....in Canada Goose jackets! |
