Oh wait, that is (part of) the Government!:D
 
John;
No shortages that I have noticed but then I'm rarely the one doing the shopping. Nothing reported in the news.

Media is making a bigger deal of the protest than what is happening. Lots of trucks on the road hauling stuff that needs to be hauled. Media needs a good story to sell advertising, don't believe everything you hear.

The Governments reaction is a bit scary though. Freezing bank accounts that easily make one rethink how secure your nest egg might be. We depend on the Government to protect our deposits from bank failure but who is protecting us from Government failure.

I appreciate very much your response, deaddog

I do have to comment that where I'm from in the US, the News Media are not showing the situation in Canada

CNBC mentioned it on Squawk Box on Friday, showing people are going to be arrested for being out in the streets, but not to the extent of the fear I would feel if threatened with all accounts frozen, financial, insurance, everything, that could ruin a person and even a whole family's livelihood


I get my sensationalist info from Twitter and a little bit of fud on YouTube. I'm sharing them below





 
Don't get vaccinated then but don't make all citizens hostages from you.There is no need to block cities for weeks. All people have rights, you cannot speak about YOUR rights and ruine the rights of other people. All people's rights should be preserved.
But the governments around the world did no such thing when it came to the Black Lives Matter looters. They literally looted and burned down buildings. And before you tell me that I'm lying, I live in Atlanta, GA — where one of the "police shootings" took place in 2020 and I saw the destruction with my own eyes. And they did this all across the country but no state of emergency was declared. In fact, people were told that they'd better not interfere with them.

Which country do you live in?

I know you said Atlanta, GA but where in Canada is Atlanta, GA located?

Well if you want tho use that argument, I tell you that there more black innocent people are getting killed by cops than white ones. There will always be arguments for and against. It would be better if both sides would stop their crimes. If one starts and the second does not follow, we clearly see who the real criminals are.
Don't forget the black slavery and the mass killing of indians (like Wounded Knee) by the "innocenct and correct" white Americans.

I am not black, I am white (caucasian), and I try to be objective.

No such destruction occurred in Canada. We have better social harmony here less reasons for minorities to be upset ( any related protests were peaceful and respectful ). The 'truckers' are unwanted and more disruptive, and most Canadians are NOT supportive of them at all. You are confusing the social strife in the US with the reality in Canada. In many ways, the 'truckers' are a bunch of Americans trying to import their cause to Canada, and not realizing we don't agree with them or want them here at all. Some may latch onto civil rights and technicalities on the government action, but ultimately most of us are fine with whatever measures to get these assholes off our streets.
