The whole racist agrument has been dead for well over a decade now. Calling someone a racist simply doesnt mean anything. You can join the clowns on the other thread who are calling Ben Shapiro a White Supremacist and a Nazi. According to GWB-Trading if you are against lockdowns, you are a racist. If you think someone should show photo id to vote, then you are a racist. They cannot win with facts or reason, so they sling mud and attack the messenger.

I am beginning to think that Prime Minister Tinkerbell will not be addressing the crowd any time soon. Of course, the truckers disagree with Trudeau so they cease to be Canadians according to his standards. Trudeau moved to undisclosed location as trucker protest descends on Ottawa https://www.upi.com/Top_News/World-...n-trucker-covid-protest-ottawa/3121643481386/
Its really amazing, a protest is occurring and no looting, smashing windows, attacking people, or the typical trash that happens when leftists protest. Notice the media does not mention that it is peaceful.
I have. The real issue regarding the protest is about the Benjamin's. Er, excuse me, the Borden's. I talked with an outspoken female Canadian trucker in Atlanta at a trade show late last year. She said she was an owner operator for the last twenty years, but her only netting $.45 cdn per mile made no sense, so she "Retired". She is now a company driver for a friend at a Canadian trucking company. Currently, in the US, owner operators are able to earn about triple what she did. In US currency, to boot. Trucking, for the most part, is trucking. There is seemingly little justification for such a pay disparity. After all, how do they expect Canadian truckers to pay the 15% GST, among other things? Considering the percentage of people who actually get out there and protest, especially in the cold, is very low relative to the total number of disgruntled individuals, 2000 plus participants in the Canadian Trucker's protest is epic, possibly suggesting a hundred times more or whatever, Canadian truckers are also disgruntled but either don't have the means or the will to participate. Media reports of "some" anti-vaxxers and racists within the protest group is simply a media hit job on behalf of large shippers in Canada and even in the US to some extent, for the purpose of quashing any public outrage and demand for action on this issue. What the media and Government say they care about often contradicts their actions. A recent US example is Biden and the progressives, of course. While logistical challenges are driving up US trucking labor costs to probable unsustainable levels, it has been a boon to newer entrants into the industry, many of whom are minorities along with increasing female participation. In fact, trucking in the US right now is a ticket out of the hard choices many minority females would face otherwise. Encouragingly, trucking veterans, many of whom are Trump supporters, have greeted these newcomers with open arms through their display of patience and often helpful attitude. While I certainly have several misgivings towards Socialistic like situations, especially in the long term, there are currently some happy stories out there. At least in the US. For now, anyway.
