We’ve all seen them appearing in the news and all over social media. They drive 18-wheelers for a living and are some of the most reserved people you can meet. Truckers are an essential part of how food gets on your plate, clothes get on your back, shoes on your feet and so on. So when a trucker speaks up, it’s time to quiet down.
The Freedom Truckers of Canada have had enough of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. The Freedom Truckers began a long convoy to protest against the “rules and regulations” the clown of a politician had put into place for the ‘Rona. These “rules” were mandatory vaccines and vaccine passports, which is stupid no matter who decides to do that. So From Alberta, Canada, to Ottawa, Canada, these men and women have had enough.
Alright. There was a GoFundMe page for the truckers to help raise money for fuel and to show support. However, the garbage company said, “We now have evidence from law enforcement that the previously peaceful demonstration has become an occupation, with police reports of violence and other unlawful activity.” What violence has broken out? The only thing close to violence is people buying fuel for the truckers, shouting during the protests and the cops wrongfully stealing the diesel. Even though these cops are stealing the diesel, I don’t think the truckers will leave anyways. Not to mention that GoFundMe pages were everywhere during the BLM riots, which were way more violent than this. So now, GoFundMe is going to be investigated by the following states: Texas, Florida, West Virginia and Missouri. Give it to ‘em boys!
Did I mention the police are taking the fuel cans away from the truckers and supporters? Yeah, that’s right. Cops are taking away fuel. And I thought Canadian cops were supposed to be friendly and sunshine and rainbows! Diesel is an expensive fuel. At $6.102 per gallon, an 18-wheeler holds between 125 to 300 gallons of fuel. That’s way too much fuel to be taken away from the Convoy. Supporters have started to buy fuel with their own money since the cops are taking it. Why the hell are you taking fuel away from them? Do you want them to get cold and sick? Oh, right, you guys think it’s an occupation. So tell us, O great Canadian police, how in the world are you guys going to get the truckers out of there, especially when the tow trucks that were called in joining the Freedom Convoy and ignored you?
That’s right, tow trucks all across Canada were called into Ottawa to tow away the Convoy, but they refused and joined instead. So now comes the next question, how does this impact the United States? Here’s how. It blocks major trade routes and restricts traffic into and out of both countries. Is this good for either economy? No, but both economies have already been flushed down the toilet, so why the heck not.
So overall, the Freedom Convoy is something that affects both the U.S. and Canada. If The Clown of Canada, Princess Justin Trudeau, did not put these “mandates” into place, he wouldn’t be hiding in his office like a little chicken. The cops suck because they want to keep living in their little fantasy land of a country that thinks everything is coated with sugar.
