quote:

Tom Marazzo, an acting spokesperson for the convoy, said on Monday that the protesters wanted to go home but would not leave until the “job is done”.

The initial motivation for the convoy was an announcement last year that truckers crossing the US-Canada border would need to be fully vaccinated against Covid-19. But the protesters’ demands have grown to an end for all vaccine mandates, and even the toppling of the Trudeau government.

“I apologize if I’m bashing the guy [Trudeau] but honestly, from my assessment he’s got a .22 caliber mind in a .357 world,” said Marazzo a software developer and former member of the Canadian military.

Someone can cheat during a sporting event without it indicting their entire nation, race or religion.

The ottawa stuff really seems like peanuts compared to trucks blocking the Ambassador bridge. Who is organizing that?

You'd think the government would be quicker to shut that down considering that it's threatening the pockets of our overlords, no matter how small that threat is.

I just saw a herd of them headed west on the 417 slowing down traffic. they’d better be leavings and not migrating to the suburbs where my mom lives, jfc

saw some OPP squad cars near the sir John A, was just OPS last week. Maybe something is happening.

probably loving not though

On one hand, I want them to gently caress off, and for your mom to be safe.

on the other, pissing of suburbanites would be a fantastic way for them to lose even more support.

my company just put out an all company bulletin they all of our U.S. shipments from Ontario with loads destined to Ohio, North Carolina, Texas, Georgia, California, Florida, Alabama, Utah, Illinois and Alabama will be impacted by this closure.

not only that it’s stagnating the shipping system as trailers get dumped into storage as they can’t get over and we just saw rates spike 500 bucks a shipment.

basically blocking the side coming into Canada hurts the USA as the shipments they want would have been loaded onto the trailers that are now stuck at the border.

you aren’t wrong but they really should be headed east or south if they want to piss off the real money, but I guess Kanata does have the tech park they could antagonize

don't worry, as it stands everyone is polling status quo.

unless it is somehow made obvious that dofo is loving this up, he will at least have a minority government, and very likely another majority, come june 3rd

multiple freedom convoys have spawned across France inspired by the Ottawa occupation

I guess they didn’t see the franco response in quebec

they’ve called up and mobilized the departmental gilet jaune to bring them in to blockade Paris this weekend and then head to Brussels

so far the police have made it clear they’re not going to take any poo poo so we’ll see how it shakes out, during the OG gilet jaune movement some protestors died, lost limbs, had eyes blasted out by the riot police, etc
