Trump, Florida Governor DeSantis, and Ted Cruz has voiced support for Canadian Truckers blocking roads to USA. GM and Ford had to shut down manufacturing plants and lay off workers for a few shifts. This is worsen the car and Truck shortage and cause prices to increase. If you need a car part or appliance part that is made in Canada, you won't get it as long as there is a blockage. Seems the right wing (Republicans) in the USA are sending money to pay the protestors through gofundme. Oil also comes from Canada in Trucks to be turned into gasoline, so gas prices will rise. One person posted that the trucks blocked the road to the emergency room, causing one person to die due to delay of their ambulance. https://www.salon.com/2022/02/07/desantis-to-investigate-gofundme-for-withholding-money-from-anti-vax-canadian-trucker/
The OP comments is a classic example of how nazi / communistic propaganda worked in the past. Instead of focusing on the real problem (why there is a blockade), let's focus only on the consequences and make the protesters / their supporters look bad. Congrats!
I think vaccine mandates are unnecessary but I also think these truckers shouldnât block roads. I hate it when BLM goons do it.
Honk!
You see, if shit goes bad now itâs good for Repubs for midterm elections. Thatâs all they give a shit about.
Ah yes! The classic 5 year old argument âthey did it firstâ.
I would say that a minor supply chain disruption is probably less bad than months of vaccine disinformation. Plus most oil and goods are transported over water, rail, and pipelines.
They need to stop the killing, burning and looting right now.
Canadians donât usually do that type of stuff. To be fair, though, stopping a vital chain supply causes layoffs, which causes poor people to struggle. So not looting but they are affecting US citizens negatively. Itâs trickle down economics at its best.
Except for over hockey.
I don't agree with the truckers or support their cause. But I still want them to succeed because the media and politicians who are complaining now also said CHAZ was just a block party and I want them to have a taste of their own medicine.
Itâs best to assume politicians are hypocrites and liars. Will save you time!
Iâll take this over burning down small businesses any day.
Proves Republicans and conservatives in USA and Canada just want to destroy the USA and Canada.
I support the attempts of US politicians to fight for freedom
What about loss of supply chain to auto factories? Loss of US jobs?
Covid mandates are way worse than anything trucker blockade could do
