Canada's truck blockade is causing supply chain concerns. Here's why

The trucker-inspired protests in Canada continue. It's starting to worry officials on both sides of the border, who say blocking a key trade route between the US and Canada could lead to higher prices. #CNN #News

Notice how theres starting to be a reaction once large american companies started to feel the pain, the real constituents.

Jeez, imagine ruining people’s lives and then being surprised that they’re upset about it

CNN is lucky the dislike button isn’t visible so we can see how bad they’ve been ratioed

It is interesting how the media accepted and supported the violent riots of 2020 but a non-violent protest such as this is terrible. Trudeau could have ended this before it started if he wanted to. I blame Trudeau not the truckers.

the supply chain was is shambles well before this protest, thank mayor pete and joetato

Maybe Trudeau should just comply if he wants things to go back to normal 😎

2 weeks to flatten the curve turned into two years of crushing small businesses while mammoth corporations were allowed to stay open.
Most of Europe, as well as the US, are lifting or eliminating mandates or restrictions, Canada has the highest Vax rate at 90%, have endured some of the harshest mandates on the planet, and the people still can't see the light at the end of the tunnel.
My sawmill was manufactured in Canada, and I have not been able to buy parts for over a year and a half because of mandates not because of truckers.
Trudeau just had two members of his party come out against him in the House of Commons. I foresee his capitulation in a few days.
It was said outloud recently in the House of Commons that elderly Canadians living in old folks homes are asking for medically assisted suicide because they don't want to go on not being allowed visitation from family members.

All of the costs that keep rising, meanwhile companies keep posting record high profits, but I'm sure those things aren't connected at all.

I can see cnn taking the comments off soon

[manoelsantos]

I think they have the right to protest. Leave them alone. Give them freedom to decide what they have to do.

[Seawizz]

This is what a real peaceful protest looks like.

Good luck physically moving those big rigs….

If CNN, ABC, MSNBC all merged into one group, they might actually increase their chances of concocting a partially true story for once!!

[aliciai.]

I will gladly eat canned beans and top ramen for the next for months 🙂 I stand with the truckers!

[ssdd]

It’s ok. we established that “fiery but mostly peaceful protest” are good thing in 2020.

[barfyman-dmzx]

The honking will continue until FREEDOM improves

[jbird]

Whenever I need a good laugh, it brings me comfort to know CNN is here for me.

And yet no one from canada's government has sat down and talked with the truckers. After they have pleaded and done everything they could to get a talk started. It's not the truckers fault

[OttawaNow]

The Canadian government has actually violated the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms according to Brian Peckford. Brian Peckford is the last living politician who helped create the Charter. He has said that the Canadian government had no legal right to bypass protocols for enacting the Emergency Act, it was a knee jerk reaction. Brian is currently in the process of suing the Canadian government and will win as he is the most qualified person to interpret the Charter.

They barely brought up corporate greed. Record profits. CEO’s driving prices up for that 3rd vacation house.
