They are driving across our country and the anger is growing against them. These fools and their backers are doing nothing but building anger and frustration across the country. Truckers who don’t want to be vaccinated against Covid are carrying flags into battle instead of guns. They obviously don’t know that flag bearers are among the first to be shot.
And other idiots are supporting this foolishness. We hear figures in the millions from troublemakers on some Facebook funding. These weasels supporting the caravan are even bigger fools than the ones driving the trucks. They are wasting their money. They obviously have too much.
There is no way the government is going to back down. Both Canada and the United States are firm: If you want to be part of trans-border trucking, you have to be vaccinated against Covid. The fools in the caravan can drive their trucks into the Atlantic Ocean for all we give a damn. Just stay in your truck.
And you are smart not to drive your trucks through Barrie, Ontario on your way to Ottawa. In Barrie, I would be one of the people throwing rotten eggs at your trucks.
There is no honour to be earned in this truck caravan. This is cheap, unconsidered snivelling. It does no good. If there was ever a time when people needed to support each other to end this pandemic, it is now.
And please do not tell us that people will go hungry because some truckers are not allowed to cross the border because they are afraid of being vaccinated. Children might be afraid of being vaccinated but we expect people old enough to drive those rigs to be people able to endure a second of discomfort because of a needle in their arm.
So why don’t you show you are an adult and get vaccinated. They are the people we respect.
