If you don't know what is going on, get up to speed. I think they are going to shut the border down.

You mean they’re not gonna drive across borders?

A random twitter with only like 20 retweets and likes?

Sounds like a terrible idea, wouldn't that be equivalent to a hurricane evacuation level of traffic they'd be stuck in at the borders? (unless I'm misunderstanding what they're planning)

Isn’t that your job to do for us as the OP?

Don’t know why the OP didn’t want to give some info, but here are the big bullet points as I understand them:
-Truckers are protesting a vaccine mandate imposed on them.
-They are convoying from BC to Ottawa (Canada’s capitol) as a demonstration.
-The convoy is thousands of trucks and over 70 km long at this point.
-All of them going on strike will seriously frick up the supplies of local goods in Canada… this will be felt.
-All of them descending on Ottawa will frick traffic up worse than a hurricane evacuation.
I’m not sure what genius decided to frick with such a heavily unionized group of baws, but they’re about to regret it.

In review, USSA News uses moderately loaded language in headlines and articles: Russia Warns of Global Conflict over Nuclear Pact Collapse. They typically source their information well, but it is often to other right-wing sites with a mixed factual track record. For example, they use the Daily Signal and Christian Post as sources of information. Both of these sources have Mixed factual ratings by our standards. They also sometimes link to questionable sources such as Conservative Fighters, which has a poor track record with fact-checkers. Lastly, all articles on this website favor the right and/or libertarian positions.
Failed Fact Checks
“human cages” found in Caruthers, California are being used to hold human trafficking victims captive. – False
USSA News makes Star Magazine like less of a tabloid
I am not saying I even 100% trust media bias fact check. But USSA news is Russian propaganda pretending they are the extreme far right tea party or our CIA. I really think more and more Russia is behind most fringe sites.

This ^^^ type of pushback and solidarity from unions never found any steam in the US….nearly every major union has joined forces with the illegitimate authoritarian regime in the vax mandate.

The logistics of keeping that train fueled seems iffy

That looks like terrorism to me.
If they want to peacefully protest, they should probably research the experts, antifa and BLM.

Is this going to be like those weirdos looking for the reincarnation of JFK again?

They have reached the point that they think suburban dumbass women or the key to victory, and they don't need the "useful Union idiots" anymore.
To be clear, I side of the truckers 100% on this one, but unions hadn't let liberals run away with whatever they wanted to in exchange for free goodies, we wouldn't be having this problem

Ezra Levant’s Twitter is doing a great job following this, and it’s huge. The US is also mandating trucker vax so this affects us as well.
Just in case you think we don’t need Canadian goods, we import over $20B of food and agriculture from Canada, which exports a majority of their ag product.

I love it! If truckers can do this other professionals can do something similar.
