So here is a report from a proper news outlet. They are saying it has been opened. No idea what is happening there.

This is the video from the supporter, as I can't find one from more mainstream media. The border here is clearly still blocked and police is trying to do their job, which is to allow traffic to proceed. Truckers and farmers are not allowing it. I think the restrains on the RCMP part must be unheard of compared to any country.
Clearly, these truckers are doing something illegal, no? But, I supposed they feel that the Canadian government has been doing something illegal for 2 years, and nobody is hearing anyone.

Most of the provinces were in the process of lifting restrictions anyway. All were more or less waiting to see the results of the Omicron wave an peak on hospitalizations and ICU bed use, especially after the holidays and kids returning to school.

That's not true. Canada has been INSANELY locked down compared to even extreme parts of the US (like DC). That's why there is such widespread support for the truckers.

I’m IN Canada. I’ve been living the lockdowns, and also happen to know a lot of people who have lived them too. But thanks for “educating” me. There’s not much wide support, just the support there is is being VERY vocal about it.

Oh, this must be our resident Toronto rich lady pp? Explain then trucks, vans and cars, and SUVs that all left suburbs on Saturday and joined the protesters? Kids in tow too? Bus stops in the afternoons full of middle-aged and younger people carrying flags and going downtown? Even yesterday night?

Another Canadian here. Thanks for explaining what's happening in our own country. There are a lot of people telling the truckers to quit whining and get back to work. Same with the lock downs. Many provinces were already planning to start lifting restrictions before the convoy started.

Well, those hick Ottawians did not get your message, I guess. Not me, I am in no way participating in any of it on any side, but sure those moms and middle ages people and youngsters going there are truckers.

Except, I am in Ottawa.

Trudeau is a coward hiding in a hole instead of engaging in a dialog with his constituents. Pathetic weakling loser.

The shut down last late March till June saw stores that could stay open, cover the non food and medicine merchandise covered with tarps! So, they will make it even to smaller shops that had to be closed.
Yep, in 2021 that happened, but in previous lockdowns you could buy a frying pan at Walmart.

Apparently they have opened up a lane to traffic at Coutts now.

It also means Coutts residents can't get gas, groceries, or prescriptions. Their access is blocked off.

Canada has killed a lot fewer people than the US during Covid.

But I am relieved to see that there are just as many ignorant people in Canada as in the US. Makes me feel better about being American.

There is no wide spread support for these people. Other countries do not cuddle lunatics.

It certainly looks like they have widespread support from the public in Canada.

But O'Toole did not support the truckers. In fact, he avoided saying he supports them at all and kept saying he supports science and vaccinations.
