Truckers could end every COVID related issue in seven days. Imagine trucks not entering DC for a week. Sure, they could get some things off ships, but those vessels are not prepared to cover the loss of the goods in those trucks. I can’t be sure of this but I believe some of the anger you see directed at the Canadian truckers is fear in disguise. Canadians who don’t realize how quickly they’d starve without truckers are lost but I’m sure there are many who have made that connection.
I've been watching the trucker protest carefully. In addition to the Freedom Convoy in Ottawa, there is a smaller group of truckers and farmers with farm equipment who have blockaded a border crossing between Alberta and Montana. There has been a standoff between them and the RCMP who demanded that they leave. The truckers just stood their ground and sang O Canada. Very little coverage on MSM, but an independent outfit called Rebel News has some pretty good coverage. It warms my heart.

Good stuff
Good to be back
