1. They tried that already and the tow truck companies in Ottawa declined to participate in that game.
2. What Canada really needs is for the truck drivers to get back to work, not to have Ottawa streets unblocked, which is a small problem by comparison with nationwide supply chain troubles.

The truckers hold most of the cards here. Time to fold, Trudeau.


You realize that we don’t really need these truck drivers back to work, as they represent a tiny fraction of them? That supply chain issues were not due to truck drivers, and that those are resolving daily as Omicron cases are falling?

Much like Ottawa, this thread is clearly now occupied by people who have no intention of discussion, they just went to spew memes, hate, and rhetoric.

Consider the fact they are setting up restaurants and bouncy castles. Do these seem to be people who have a legit concern with their freedoms?


Anyone spending hours outdoors in Ottawa in February clearly has strong feelings about it.

Also, there’s just not that much spare inventory of goods these days. If I lived in Canada I would be stocking up.


It has nothing to do with the truckers. It has to Do with Omicron running rampant through industrial agribusinesses, factories, warehousing, retail, etc. The situation is already improving, but yiu wouldn’t know that because it doesn’t fit your narrative.

Much like the mandates and restrictions are lifting in Canada, depending on health care capacity in the area, much like they did towards summer last year. But that doesn’t fit the narrative either, especially since the mandates are provincially legislated.


If the situation is improving, then what is the point of making sure the last holdouts who don’t want a vaccine get vaccinated anyway?

Has nothing to do with truckers?

A lot of businesses are struggling because of workers out sick. The truckers are only making things worse by not delivering needed goods, and blocking the roads keeping the other, less insane truckers from doing their jobs in delivering those needed goods. And that all worsens supply chain, causes shortages, and worsens the economy. All for what? A petulant tantrum over vaccines,

So many countries are doing away with lockdowns..numerous public health authorities have called to end pandemic restrictions. Omicron is such a mild non-event. In fact, there have been calls to end the use of the term pandemic all together and to start using the word endemic.... because covid will be just like the flu.

The forever maskers and forever lockdown idiots are the truly zainy out in far left field people. It is time to use a rational risk based approach for opening society back up. People are just going to have to get used to the fact covid exists. Big whoop.


Unvaccinated people are 97 times more likely to die from covid than boosted people are. And are far more likely to be hospitalized and suffer long term health issues from covid. Hospitals are still sick of those sick and dying from covid, whereas you'd be very hard pressed to find someone sick and dying as a result of having to wear a mask or get vaccinated. Your ideas about risk are completely backasswards.

What's zany is saying "screw it" and pointlessly letting hundreds of thousands of people die just so that you can go to Fuddruckers for a crowded unmasked unvaxxed happy hour in the name of freedumb.




What the hell is your point? The unvaxxed people must reap what they sow. Who cares. Society is done with the unvaxxed. We cannot keep closing society down for the unvaxxed. If they die, they die. Their own stupid fault.

Besides, in the context of this thread, your point is moot. The vast majority of the truckers protesting in Canada are in fact vaxxed.

“Society is done with the unvaxxed”? Current CDC stats show that in the US, 25.7% of people 18 and over have not been fully vaccinated, i.e., gotten their first two doses. That is 66 million people. It’s a smaller share in Canada but still millions of people you’re writing off. Too bad for you that they don’t intend to go away quietly.

The fact that the truckers are vaxxed makes their anti-vax point all the more stupid and pointless. Seriously, I think both the US and Canada are having a major mental illness issue. There's a lot of people running around there doing stuff that's completely irrational and senseless.

So how long do people feel Trudeau has left? 2 weeks? Less?

Hah! Any country dumb enough to elect a useless person like Trudeau as its leader will not get off quite as easily as that. He will be there for a long, long time.

There is a reason we see specific right wing turmoil in these locations



Right wing psyops generated and amplified by the Russians. When will the ranks and file right wingers learn they are being played at a massive scale?

Well, considering he was just elected in September, I’d say a little under the 5 years he is afforded for his term with a minority government. Well, unless The Queen decides she is unhappy.

It's been happening in Czechia, Netherlands and other countries as well - often with the exact same graphics and narratives.

Its all about Russia trying to gain dominance through an orchestrated campaign of subversion, destabilization and disinformation against the West. This book has been required reading for people in Putin's circle.

Ok, I’ll agree with that. It’s really about ordinary Canadians trying to set limits on the intrusion of government into their lives.

Yep. And, the left is - AGAIN - pushing the Russian narrative. That has gotten so old.
