[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The people at these protests are not even truckers! The trucking union has already come out and said the protests are being led & funded & attended by people not even associated with the trucking industry. Are there trucks there? Yes. But most truckers in Canada are just trying to work this week.

The protest is a bunch of right wing hustlers purposely trying to bring the economy to its knees. [/quote]

Care to cite a source or are you too busy crafting your tinfoil hat?  [/quote]

The post you are responding to literally cited the source in the second sentence.

“ The vast majority of the Canadian trucking industry is vaccinated with the overall industry vaccination rate among truck drivers closely mirroring that of the general public. Accordingly, most of our nation’s hard-working truck drivers are continuing to move cross-border and domestic freight to ensure our economy continues to function.

The Canadian Trucking Alliance (CTA) does not support and strongly disapproves of any protests on public roadways, highways, and bridges. CTA believes such actions – especially those that interfere with public safety – are not how disagreements with government policies should be expressed. Members of the trucking industry who want to publicly express displeasure over government policies can choose to hold an organized, lawful event on Parliament Hill or contact their local MP. What is not acceptable is disrupting the motoring public on highways and commerce at the border.

“The Government of Canada and the United States have now made being vaccinated a requirement to cross the border. This regulation is not changing so, as an industry, we must adapt and comply with this mandate,” said CTA president Stephen Laskowski. “The only way to cross the border, in a commercial truck or any other vehicle, is to get vaccinated.””
