It is very sad what happened to the stores.
And the thousands of hourly workers who were out of work for three weeks.
One of the reasons I refuse to refer to the Qonvoyers as "truckers". Every union that is active in the trucking industry and all trucking trade associations released statements disavowing the Qonvoyers. Actual working truckers were often caught up in border blockades by weekend "trucker" cosplayers with Dodge Ram 2500 dualies.
Same. I have a friend who is a long haul trucker. He was vaccinated, like the vast majority of professional truckers, and running loads back and forth to the US throughout the pandemic. He was always stressed about what was going to happen at the border but he worked the whole time. He though the protesters were idiots.
