You remember the movie DUEL? The story of a truck and a little car. Now the duel is between a thousand of trucks against little Justin. Cry, Justin, you will need a lot of Kleenex! I will send you a box if you want.
I think Justin must be isolating already...in Greenland.
No worries, that's all been planned for...well in advance.The truckers face a tactical dilemma - what happens when they all arrive? I'm imagining 150 km of trucks clogging the roadways of the capitol.
Hilarious and totally on the money. Speaks volumes.The meme Lords are having a Blast with this latest development!

I can't remember the complete flow of this conversation so I'm doing the best I can.
I went to the smoke shop earlier today to get some tobacco. I've known the girls who work there for years. One of the employees was there and we usually just chat a bit. i got my stuff and while I was opening the pack I just asked if she knew about the convoy. She had but was not interested in it saying that all the truckers were racists. I then said that that 'angle' was coming from the anti-hate groups who were paid by government and corporate funding to divert from the real meaning. She said that she had her sources too. I said that the racism wasn't the point of the convoy at all. She asked what was? I said that it was about the right to choose. She then said that she would have no problem if someone else made all her decisions for her. I eased into my response asking if that isn't what she already had? Yep, she retorted. She was getting pretty mad at this point. I can't remember this portion but I think I mentioned something about 'making choices' again and she made a final reply that she should be able to make her choice about wanting an abortion or not alluding that the truckers were the type of people that prevent that choice. Her energy was hot and spiky at this point so I just ended it with an 'ok' and mentioned I had to do some other shopping.
I couldn't see this before but I can now; how the anti-hate groups are doing their work and the effect it's having. She wasn't like this before. I don't know if she was just having a bad day but this was a different kind of angry.
Yes, that is the situation.I couldn't see this before but I can now; how the anti-hate groups are doing their work and the effect it's having. She wasn't like this before. I don't know if she was just having a bad day but this was a different kind of angry.
I think the above is very well said. And in a way it also indicates what is ahead, difficulties, even if the truckers do nothing. It is as if it is set up to happen, or is it just pathocrats in power who do not knowing what they are doing?So I just wanna clarify some misinformation about the meaning of this convoy.
As a second generation truck driver with 15 yrs experience myself personally in this industry, grew up along side this industry with my dad and my family. Dad hung up the keys and retired this year at the age of 73 owned his own truck since he was 18. I know this industry, and always learning.
If you honestly think that the reason your shelves are empty is because of this convoy your four corners are very small lol.
This problem in the supply chain didn’t just happen two years ago, your just noticing it now because it is affecting you now because your seeing it in the stores now boohoo.
Your going to have to go back a few decades when shipping rates flatlined and plummeted. Fuel tax “IFTA” to operate in the US has kept increasing and still is decade after decade, plates to operate from province to province state to state increases year after year. Insurance the same. The cost to operate a truck is more than just buying one. The amount “a single truck” let alone a fleet has to pay in taxes every year to the government is fucking ridiculous and for what? What have they done for this industry instead of impose another stupid regulation? Oh ya … Trudeau adds his Carbon Tax that’s the thanks we get, so because of decades long bullshit your now looking at a huge shortage of trucks decades long that’s your reason for empty shelves.
If you have never been an owner operator of truck or even been in this industry to know what’s all involved to make a living in this industry you probably should just butt out your looking like a fool. The amount of regulations we have to follow is something again that is ridiculous, we are over regulated. Most people have no idea what’s all involved to get your products on the shelves, how much sacrifice and time that’s put in to keep stores full while your at home living life with your families, watching your babies grow up at home in front of you instead of watching through a phone.
This convoy has nothing to do with vaxed or unvaxed we’re both unable to go to a restaurant and eat. I am unable to go to a drive thru window and order food or use the washroom and we bring the gawd damn food to them.
This convoy is also about your childrens mental health and the long lasting effects this pandemic has on them as they live in fear created by your government. The loss of education that the children have lost and will never get caught back up again. What has your government done for them? NOTHING!
Wearing a mask that does absolutely nothing for anyone. My son who is 3 doesn’t even know a life without a mask or any of the public recreational activities he could be enjoying and learning over the past three years but are still closed.
This convoy is about all the small businesses that have lost their livelihoods and forced to close up when all they did was do what was asked from them. So if you think this is just about the trucker who doesn’t want to get the jab perfect, but there’s a much bigger picture here that we’re fighting for. This latest mandate imposed on our industry was just the final straw that broke the camels back. Only that final straw landed on the backs of an already paralyzed industry. This convoy is because we were already a tight knit community and large enough and strong enough to push back.
This convoy is about government over reach PERIOD!
Her comments about overregulation hit the nail on the head. That's a large part of the reason for my frustration with Canada - everything is massively regulated, and it just isn't possible to feel free under such circumstances.Yes, that is the situation.
I looked up this group Indigenous people are joining forces and there was one Canadian woman, Lorraine Hamel, from a First Nation People who is a trucker and she posted a public comment, which was shareable, so I take the liberty of copying and posting what she said:

Here are other FB groups more directed toward the campaign, if they have not already been shared.
Convoy to Ottawa has 723k
Taking Back Our Freedoms Canada is all about this campaign. 35K
Edit, I noticed 3x"tru": trucker, Trudeau and Trump. Trump is gone, is Trudeau next?
