  1. Hold the line Truckers. You are doing an amazing job. I loved meeting you all in Ottawa. The. world is watching and they love it.

  2. If mandates are so imperative, why with thousands of truckers gathered in Ottowa for 12 days, are hospitals not overwhelmed with sick truckers, many of whom are unvaxxed and high risk?

  3. ☝️☝️☝️I have no word to thank you, I want you to know that I will never forget what you did for me with your service you so trusted.

  4. If every trucker in the world would commit to pulling over for one hour in the middle of the day – this would be over in minutes

    1. Except most of them are WORKING
      and keeping the supply chain going
      instead of role playing as William Wallace

  5. Maybe his interest is similar to what Obama’s interests were when he supported his views of Canadian politics.

  6. This is what happens when you fail to protect the people’s rights, which is most basic role a government is supposed to play in a liberal democracy.

  7. I sit and listen to what you guys say, antiestablishment, after the last 6 years of Trudeau what do you fellows expect? Go for a walk in Ottawa, or how about right across Canada, it’s a lot more than mandates.

  8. LONGEST word in the English language (used in speech)… DISESTABLISHMENTARIANISM…. Learned it as a kid… never fully appreciated it until now!

    1. Antidisestablishmentarianism is longer, and the establishment being referred to is the church, specifically the state church.

    1. The active case count in Ontario continues its downward march. It peaked on Jan. 10 and has fallen 78.5% since then. In Ottawa specifically, the active case count peaked on Jan. 3 and has fallen 80.3% since then.

  9. Elon Musk Is part Canadian, his moms born in Regina, Sask. So maybe he has naturally loves canada even though he was born in South Africa i believe. Either or, he’s a cool dude.

  10. Will the Trudeau government step up and open a dialogue for negotiations with the protesters for everyone’s sake. It’s the responsible thing of a government to do. It’s not fair for the truckers, nor the residence of Ottawa and the police who have been working endlessly. For all ours sake will the government extend a hand for negotiations before somebody gets hurt or is that what it will take?
