    1. Now is the time to open…there are lots of truckers who will support them but if you close on your own account, then who is the foolish one.

    2. @Zealand Leavitt The government is threatening to fine any business that opens up to full capacity and shut them down forever. They are being threatened by this gangster government. Bunch of thugs using extortion, blackmail, intimidation, coercion, and threats to do what they say or face unethical, immoral, illegal consequences.

    3. Downtown businesses HAVE shutdown after their staff were being harassed and assaulted by selfish FREEDUMB protesters

  1. Businesses closed due to lockdowns! Don’t blame truckers. This is on the government!! Stop all mandates and it’s over.

    1. Downtown businesses were allowed to open up on monday but had to shutdown after their staff were harassed and assaulted by FREEDUMB protesters. Ottawans has had enough of these selfish crybabies. Time to go home

    1. @Keatrith Amakiir You can’t stop acting like there’s no cost to living like this. Deaths of despair due to government overreach will prove to be worse than the pandemic.

      “being angry doesn’t make you correct, sorry bout your fragile feelings”

      Time to point that high-tuned perception inward.

    2. @Thomas Mac Isaac Deaths of despair? What is that nonsense. Give me a break, you just can’t handle even minor inconveniences and demand special treatment as a result. Its childish

  2. You want restaurants and business to open up? Doesn’t look like it to me looking back at the last 2 years

  3. “The restaurants want to reopen.”
    Are you kidding me! We want everything to reopen! Everything! Nix the mandates!

    1. Yet he’s concerned that a legitimate protest is disrupting the Starbucks in downtown Ottawa for a couple of days now.

    2. @NJ Starbucks is the big loser….they have been granted a golden opportunity with thousands of customers at their doorstep and are not seizing it! Its time for restaurant owners to take a stand.

  4. When the store shelves are even more empty, he will be just fine. Doesn’t look like a few missed meals will hurt him too much

    1. Haha yeah one thing we know for sure is he’s definitely “stocked” up. But not speaking about his cupboards 😅

    2. @Jake you high? Lol 99% really. Not like any of those pickups ever towed a camping trailer to anywhere. They just appear on lots obviously. Among other things.

  5. No Ford, we won’t go home. You’re also going to be voted out next after O’Toole, no more liberals in the conservative party.

  6. If you hear Doughe do some things about it you know what to do don’t let your ego get the best of u you will need our vote

  7. The sound of a horn honking is nothing compared to being fired from your job for not taking something that Might help you 30% but also has potential known side effects…and potentially many more unknown side effects

  8. No it’s time you let all of Ontario and Canada live our lives free of any mandates. Doug Ford has got to go!
