This is one way to get prices up - shut down trade.

It’s only shut down in downtown Ottawa and rural Alberta. There has been no impact to commercial cross border transportation.

Huh? These clowns shut down the Ambassador Bridge in Detroit/Windsor yesterday! It's the single biggest trade point between the US and Canada, it's critical to the automotive sector.

Damaging the economy is the point, not because they have something to prove but because the fascists who are paying for this astroturfed mess want to ding the Democrats and want to hasten the end of America.

I can't keep all the boogeymen being blamed for this straight. Is it the Russians paying for the bouncy houses and the Republicans organizing the street hockey games or is it the other way around? Please help!

Since you asked, I’m happy to help a fellow human wander out of the cesspool of right wing garbage!

Don't see a single thing about Canadian Truckers on the home page of any one of those four links. Looks like all four are skilled practitioners of dynamic silence.

DP here. You're cherry picking. Most people don't get their news from magazines online. They may check their favorite papers online or news aggregators like Google News or social media. I just randomly checked the front page of the WP and NYT and the story is certainly there. Google News has it under Headlines as well. Just google "Canadian truckers" under News in Google and a ton of stories on MSM news sites come up with news about the story. It's unfolding so it has been in the news for days.

Coming to a US Capitol near you

The main Facebook groups which organized the Canadian truck protest were all started by a random Missouri woman's Facebook account.

It turns out that woman's account was hacked. Looks like someone really doesn't want us to know who started this.

The answer is pretty clear, Justin Trudeau.

Can’t wait to see these people lose everything. Fox News will turn in them and Biden can blame all the supply chain delays on them.

Well this is the last we will be seeing of the “tuckers”. In the next 5 year autonomous vehicles AI will put these truckers out of business. Good luck guys!

You have no idea how this works, do you? I, personally, will be out serving them coffee.

I have no idea what that means. But it is pretty clear that these trucker protests taking place world wide are coordinated.

Reference to Red Dawn, to the HS students that resisted the Russians.

Remember a few things, though:
1) Russians will try and glom onto existing movements.
2) Russians had all sorts of groups in the runup to 2016: left-wing groups, BLM groups, and I wouldn't doubt for a minute that they're trying to create left-liberal groups. I'm not sure where their innocuous meme posting groups played into their masterplan.
3) My point is that they cannot do bupkis without tapping into veins of already-present discontent. Dismissing this, or anything as "just Russian pyops" is overly glib/facile.

And the U.S. does not?

Fair point, the right wing outrage machine in the U.S. is clearly promoting this unrest in another country, one of our strongest allies. Why?

Opps...

https://techcrunch.com/2022/02/08/ottawa-trucker-freedom-convoy-exposed-donation/

The donation site used by truckers in Ottawa who are currently protesting against national vaccine mandates has fixed a security lapse that exposed passports and driver licenses of donors.

TechCrunch was tipped off to the data lapse after a person working in the security space found an exposed Amazon-hosted S3 bucket containing over 50 gigabytes of files, including passports and driver licenses that were collected during the donation process.

LOL! So, the police was cracking down on all bringing jerry cans to the truckers with fuel, so they seized a bunch of containers filled with ...water!
Those evil, evil Ottawans.
