I am seeing cross border truck load rates increase.
Us mainland to Alaska has already jumped 30% on loads I am looking at.

Hm. Canada sends a fair amount of lumber down to the states. How much in the way of food/goods?

We spend a lot of time in upstate NY near the border. In normal times, lots of rigs run up and down route 87, loaded with everything from food to forest products. Construction materials and paper goods are huge cross-border shipments. Loss of Canadian tourism has hit the region pretty hard already, especially the marinas near Montreal. This will hit construction and other industries like a sledge hammer.

It's unlucky for us because we have a cottage up there that needs a new roof. We'd hoped to do an expansion at the same time, but now I suspect we'll be lucky to get roofing material and the cost and availability of materials will kill the dream of expanding.

When the shelves empty, there’s only one person to blame:

Dominic Leblanc

This is who needs to field the questions about why the shelves are bare. Just so everyone knows who to ask.

The goal here is to wreck the country so badly that we will be standing in line begging for the Jab.....And keep it wrecked.

I’m as prepared as anyone who’s not a heavy duty prepper and I am frightened.

The mandate throws a “major wrench” in the Canadian and North American supply chains, he added, with grocers, food producers, the auto parts industry and building materials among the sectors expected to be most affected.

“I really hope that we’re not at the stage where you see food insecurity, where you’re actually going to grocery stores and there’s nothing on the shelf,” Winder said. “That could be the worst-case scenario.”

Doesn’t make a lot of sense, truckers spend 95% of their time alone in the cab of their truck...what are the ignorant politicians worried about? “Lot Lizards” getting the “Omicron”?!? Maybe the waitress at the truck stop? More not well thought out bovine scatology from politicians!
